Pemberdayaan Lansia Melalui Usaha Ekonomi Produktif oleh Bina Keluarga Lansia (BKL) Mugi Waras di Kabupaten Sleman
Get PDFSusenas data in 2013 mentions 8.05% Indonesia population is elderly. The elderly are often seen as burdens in the community. It makes the depressed elderly in terms ofphysical, psychological, economic, and social. These problems require settlement by empowering the elderly. There are groups of elderly community (Bina Keluarga Lansia—BKL) Mugi Waras in Dusun Blendung, Sumbersari, Moyudan, Sleman. They sane elderly empowerment through doing productive economic ventures. They did the elderly empowerment through economic productive effort. The aims of this study is to examine the stages of empowerment and the results achieved by BKL Mugi Waras through a program of productive economic ventures. The research method used was qualitative. Sampling method was snowball sampling. The technique of datacollection through interview, observation, and documentation. The results of this research are (1) the stage of elderly empowerment there are; build awareness, identification of needs and the planning, selection and implementation of the alternative type of business activity, development of business, and evaluation of business achievement; (2) the result of the elderly is empowerment are the fulfillment of the daily needs of the elderly, the presence of contentment, and increasing the participation in BKL Mugi Waras’s activities.Data Susenas 2013 menyebutkan 8,05% penduduk Indonesia adalah lansia. Lansia sering dipandang sebagai beban dalam masyarakat. Hal tersebut membuat para lansia tertekan dari segi fisik, psikis, ekonomi, maupun sosial.

Imobilisasi Bacillus Subtilis Dan Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Pada Matriks Pva-Na Alginat Untuk Dekolorisasi Pewarna Azo Pada Limbah Cair Industri Tekstil
No full textLimbah cair industri tekstil merupakan salah satu sumber pencemar lingkungan yang signifikan karena mengandung pewarna sintetis seperti Direct Orange (DO) dan Direct Blue (DB) yang bersifat toksik, stabil secara kimia, dan sulit terurai secara alami. Salah satu pendekatan yang potensial untuk mengatasi permasalahan ini adalah melalui proses biodekolorisasi menggunakan mikroorganisme. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kemampuan bakteri Pseudomonas aeruginosa dan Bacillus subtilis dalam proses dekolorisasi senyawa pewarna azo melalui teknik imobilisasi menggunakan matriks PVA–Na alginat. Imobilisasi digunakan untuk meningkatkan stabilitas dan keberlangsungan aktivitas bakteri dalam sistem perlakuan berulang. Proses karakterisasi bead dilakukan menggunakan analisis FTIR dan SEM, yang menunjukkan tidak adanya interaksi kimia antara matriks dan sel bakteri, serta keberhasilan penjebakan sel di dalam struktur gel.

Textile industry wastewater is a major environmental pollutant due to its content of synthetic dyes such as Direct Orange (DO) and Direct Blue (DB), which are toxic, chemically stable, and resistant to natural degradation. One promising approach to address this issue is biodecolorization using microorganisms. This study aims to evaluate the decolorization capability of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis through immobilization within a PVA–Na alginate matrix. Immobilization was applied to enhance the stability and longevity of bacterial activity in repeated treatment systems. Bead characterization was conducted using FTIR and SEM analyses, confirming no chemical interaction between the matrix and bacterial cells, and demonstrating successful cell entrapment within the gel structure
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
