Model Peningkatan Kepuasan Dalam Pengelolaan Prasarana Lingkungan Permukiman Dan Perilaku Masyarakat Di Bantaran Sungai Pampang
Full text linkPermasalahan penanganan lingkungan prasarana permukiman yang mendasar yaitu adanya fenomena sosial yang ada di masyarakat yang kurang tersentuh, sehingga kegagalan dalam mengelola prasarana lingkungan sering terjadi. Menurunnya kualitas permukiman yang disertai dengan pencemaran lingkungan dan menipisnya sumber daya alam. Perilaku warga masyarakat sampai saat ini belum menunjukkan perilaku yang berwawasan lingkungan, pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan, penghijauan dilakukan belum optimal. Lokasi penelitian di bantaran Sungai Pampang Kecamatan Panakkukang Kota Makassar. Tujuan penelitian ini: merumuskan indikator dari Partisipasi Masyarakat, Tingkat Pelayanan, Peran Masyarakat, Kepuasan dalam Pengelolaan Prasarana, dan Perilaku yang bertanggungjawab terhadap prasarana lingkungan permukiman; menganalisis faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan permukiman dan perilaku yang bertanggung jawab terhadap prasarana lingkungan permukiman di bantaran Sungai Pampang; merumuskan model peningkatan kepuasan dalam pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan permukiman dan perilaku yang bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan. Dalam penelitian ini akan diuji beberapa hipotesis yang sesuai dengan indikator (indicator variable) maupun hubungan regresi dalam struktur hubungan yang dianggap saling berpengaruh baik secara langsung (direct effect) maupun pengaruh secara tidak langsung (inddirect effect). Hipotesis menggunakan analisis SEM (structural equation modeling).
Model Pengukuran Tingkat Partisipasi Masyarakat (X1), bahwa indikator buah pikiran, tenaga, materi, ketrampilan dan sosial, dianggap mampu mencerminkan tingkat partisipasi masyarakat dalam penelitian ini. Indikator keahlian, tenaga dan sosial merupakan indikator yang paling dominan dalam menggambarkan tingkat partisipasi masyarakat. Variabel Tingkat Pelayanan Prasarana Dasar Lingkungan Pemukiman (X2), menunjukkan bahwa semua indikator variabel tingkat pelayanan prasarana dasar lingkungan pemukiman dapat dikatakan bahwa model pengukuran variabel ini bersifat valid. Indikator reliability (kemampuan dan keandalan untuk menyediakan pelayanan yang terpercaya) dan assurance (kemampuan dan keramahan serta meyakinkan kepercayaan warga sebagai pengguna) merupakan indikator yang paling dapat merefleksikan tingkat pelayanan prasarana dasar lingkungan masyarakat. Variabel Peran Masyarakat (X3), menunjukkan bahwa model pengukuran variabel peran masyarakat bersifat valid. Indikator pengambilan keputusan, pelaksaan program, dan pemahaman norma/aturan merupakan indikator yang memiliki peran besar dalam mencerminkan peran masyarakat dalam penelitian ini. Variabel Kepuasan dalam Pelayanan Pengelolaan Prasarana Lingkungan (Y1), bahwa kualitas fisik prasarana dan kualitas layanan memegang peranan terbesar dalam

mencerminkan kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan. Variabel Perilaku Bertanggungjawab terhadap Lingkungan (Y2), indikator kesiapan penggunaan lingkungan yang berwawasan lingkungan, evaluasi pelayanan prasaranan lingkungan dan perbaikan pelayanan merupakan indikator-indikator yang paling dominan dalam merefleksikan perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan.
Untuk memperbaiki kecocokan model atau goodness of fit dari model struktural yang dibentuk, maka dilakukan modifikasi model dengan menambahkan path/jalur error variance dan error covariance antar indikator dan variabel laten berdasarkan modification indices. Modification indices yang dihasilkan terdiri atas dua jenis, yaitu menambahkan jalur/path baru dan menambahkan error covariance. Model sebelum dan sesudah modifikasi bersifat good fit atau layak.
Kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan (Y1) berpengaruh signifikan terhadap perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan (Y2). Koefisien path Y1 terhadap Y2 bersifat positif, artinya semakin tinggi kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasaran lingkungan, maka perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan akan semakin meningkat. Tingkat partisipasi masyarakat (X1) tidak berpengaruh signifikan baik terhadap kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan (Y1) maupun perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan (Y2). Hubungan antara X1 terhadap Y1 dan Y2 bersifat positif, semakin tinggi tingkat partisipasi masyarakat, maka kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasaranan lingkungan dan perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan akan semakin meningkat. Tingkat pelayanan prasarana dasar lingkungan pemukiman (X2) berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan (Y1). Pengaruh antar variabel ini bersifat positif, yang artinya semakin tinggi tingkat pelayanan prasarana dasar lingkungan pemukiman maka akan semakin meningkatkan kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan. Di sisi lain, tingkat pelayanan prasarana dasar lingkungan pemukiman (X2) secara langsung tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan (Y2), melainkan pengaruh ini secara tidak langsung harus melalui kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan (Y1). Variabel kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan merupakan mediator bagi pengaruh tingkat pelayanan prasarana dasar lingkungan pemukiman (X2) terhadap perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan (Y2). Peran masyarakat (X3) tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan (Y1). Namun, variabel ini justru berpengaruh langsung secara signifikan terhadap perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan (Y2). Pengaruh peran masyarakat terhadap perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan tidak perlu dimediasi oleh terhadap kepuasan dalam pelayanan pengelolaan prasarana lingkungan. Selain itu, hubungan antara peran masyarakat terhadap perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan bersifat positif, artinya semakin tinggi peran masyarakat maka perilaku bertanggungjawab terhadap lingkungan akan semakin meningkat
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
No full textWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
