THE Influence of Independence, Competence, Work Experience, and Professional Ethics on Auditor’s Performance: Empirical Study Done to Public Accounting Firms in East Java
This study explained the influence of independence, competence, work experience, and professional ethics on auditor’s performance. Primary data were obtained from questionnaires distributed to auditors in Public Accounting Firm (KAP) in East Java as respondents. 100 samples were selected using Purposive Sampling Technique. It means all variables affect the auditor’s performance individually. Based on the data analysis, independent variables including independence, competence, work experience and professional ethics had significant influence on auditor’s performance. Independence was reflected in auditor’s ability to uncover evidence-based findings, competence was indicated by auditors’ understanding on clients’ conditions based on Public Accountant Professional Standards (SPAP) and code of ethics, work experience was indicated by auditors’ ability to make decisions with less errors, while Professional ethics was shown by auditors’ ability to carry out responsibilities with regard to public interests rather than personal interests. This study was expected to provide valuable insights to the improvement of auditors’ expertise and ability for better audit outcome
Ticket Sales Accounting Information System Design at PT. Taman Rekreasi Sengkaling UMM
The diverse tourism sector with its uniqueness and supported by the facilities and means of transportation available in tourist areas can make it easy for tourists to visit tourist attractions. The development of information and communication technology marked by the existence of the internet has brought society into a new era. The information and communication technology revolution has been marked in which information has become a commodity and a force for those who control it. Based on observations and interviews that the authors conducted in the field and on the internet, there is no website-based application that can map tourist attractions at PT. Taman Rekreasi Sengkaling UMM. This study aims to design and build a website-based tourism ticket sales accounting information system to make it easier for local and foreign tourists to access information and visit tourism objects at PT. Taman Rekreasi Sengkaling UMM. The system design model uses ADDIE. Based on the results of the application design that has been done, namely a website-based ticket booking application. The application can be accessed using the website from a smartphone computer or laptop and can provide information related to existing tourist objects and assist relevant agencies in promoting tourism at the PT. Taman Rekreasi Sengkaling UMM
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
