The Dominance of the Agency Model on Financing Decisions
There are some issues about how companies consider their financing. These issues are related to the amount, source, type, and the structure of such financing. So far, there is no uniform model that is able to explain how companies deal with these issues. There are three competing, dominant theories of financing decision making, i.e. the Pecking Order Theory, the Static Trade-off Theory, and the Agency Model Theory. This study attempts to explore which theory explains the best way for companies in the consumer industry to decide their financing method. There are five hypotheses to be tested in this study. Using data from public listed companies on the Indonesian Stock Exchange from 2008 to 2011, it seems that the Agency Model Theory is more dominant than the other two theories in explaining the way companies fulfill their financing needs
Market Return, Volatility and Trading Volume Dynamics After Economic Crisis
This paper attempts to explore the relationships of return – trading volume and volatility – trading volume. Trading volume may represent a proxy of information, liquidity, andmomentum. The up and down of trading volume, therefore, contain certain information that can be extracted by traders to make investment decision. Regressions of market returnon its lags, volume, and conditional variance and regressions of volatility on its lags, volume, and conditional variance are employed. Traders may respond positive informationdifferently from negative information. To accommodate such behaviour, threshold autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity or TARCH is employed. Using market data of Indonesia Stock Exchange between economic crisis and before sub-prime mortgage crisis (from year 2000 to 2007) indicate the existence of return – volume relationships as well as volatility – return relationships albeit not very strong. There is also an indication that traders respond positive information differently from negative information concerningreturn movements but there is no indication concerning volatility movements
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
Analysis of Organizational Strategy, Business Model, and Risk Management of Contractor PT Totalindo Eka Persada Tbk in 2022
This study aims to analyze the organizational strategy, business model, and risk management implementation at PT Totalindo Eka Persada Tbk, a national construction services company. The research is conducted conceptually using a qualitative, descriptive, and analytical approach, employing PESTEL, IFAS, EFAS, SFAS, and the Business Model Canvas (BMC) to map internal–external factors and formulate priority strategies integrated with a risk management system based on ISO 31000:2018. The analysis shows that political and economic factors are the primary determinants of the continuity of construction projects. Internally, the company has strengths in reputation, human resource competence, and experience in large-scale projects, but faces weaknesses in terms of project diversification and liquidity. The SFAS results indicate that the company’s main strategies include expansion of project portfolios, technological innovation, operational digitalization, and strengthening of corporate governance (GCG). Totalindo’s project-based EPC business model emphasizes efficiency, quality, innovation, and sustainability, and also serves as the basis for performance measurement and managerial compensation through a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) system. The integration of organizational strategy and risk management has been proven to strengthen the company’s competitiveness and resilience against external changes, economic fluctuations, and operational and reputational risks. Strategic recommendations include project diversification, digital transformation, human resource development, and the implementation of sustainable, green building–based projects.This study aims to analyze the organizational strategy, business model, and risk management implementation at PT Totalindo Eka Persada Tbk, a national construction services company.

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
