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

Evaluation of Instagram’s popularity: Brand cue and message appeal as explanatory variables
No full textThe internet’s ascent has transformed digital marketing, with social media platforms like Instagram becoming essential tools. The “Instagrammable” trend has gained traction in the food industry, using visual appeal to drive business success and expand markets. This research investigates the factors influencing Instagram’s popularity metrics in the food sector, focusing on South Sumatra.

The findings revealed that brand cue positively impacts selling strategy and information search. Additionally, message appeal positively influences selling strategy and information search but negatively correlates with the popularity of social media messages, suggesting that specific appeals might hinder social media popularity. Conversely, selling strategy and information search positively affect the popularity of social media messages, highlighting the importance of engaging consumers and providing informative content for brand popularity on social platforms. While brand cues do not directly influence the popularity of social media messages, message appeal and brand cues are crucial in shaping consumer interactions on social media.

Analysis of stock price movements based on reference prices and sales volume: a study at PT Bukit Asam Tbk
No full textThe purpose of this study was to find out whether the movement of the share price of PT Bukit Asam Tbk (PTBA) occurred due to the impact of fluctuations in the Reference Coal Price (HBA) and coal sales volume (VP) or not. Taking HBA data from the publication of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), PTBA coal sales volume is obtained from company financial reports and PTBA share price data is obtained from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) and Yahoo Finance. This study uses quarterly data from January 2009 to December 2018. All data are then analyzed using the VAR / VECM method. The results showed that the Impulse Response Function (IRF) HBA had a significant positive impact on PTBA's stock price in the short and long term. Meanwhile, coal sales volume had an insignificant positive impact on PTBA's share price. Forecast Variance Decompositions (FEVD) also shows that the response generated by the HBA is greater than the coal sales volume factor against the PTBA stock price during the observation period. From this research it can be concluded that the rise and fall of HBA and coal sales volume have clear implications for companies and investors. So it is recommended that companies always evaluate the performance and effectiveness of strategic policies. As for investors, it is useful as a source of investment information, in relation to portfolio strategies

Higher education should now focus on students by creating strong ties with students and alumni. This research was conducted with a survey confirmatory approach. The survey was conducted at 32 universities in South Sumatra Province, Indonesia with a total sample of 357 students. The sampling technique used was stratified random sampling and data analysis using structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis. The results showed that the values of experience in HE were formed through increased cocreation in HE, where students were directly involved in various campus activities. High co-creation shows that there is a stronger attachment of students to HE and a higher value of student experience. Co-creation does not directly affect student satisfaction, but it does indirectly affect experience value. If the value of experience is higher, student satisfaction will also be higher.11 page.
