Pengukuran dan Profiling Kerentanan Sosial Terhadap Bencana Alam di Indonesia Tahun 2019
Get PDFNowadays, natural hazards are often seen from the nature perspective only. However, it is necessary to know not only about the hazards, but also the community resilience to prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters based on the social characteristics which are called social vulnerability. This study provides the identification of social vulnerability to natural hazards condition and characterization of the dominant factors at the district level in Indonesia using secondary data. The principal component analysis (PCA) is used to reduce 13 district-level variables into 4 components that represents the driving factors of social vulnerability. The results of PCA are used to quantify the social vulnerability level of the districts in Indonesia using social vulnerability index (SoVI), followed by the deeper exploration of social vulnerability problem using K-Means Clustering. The SoVI and cluster results were mapped by using QGIS to identify the social vulnerability at districts level. The research shows that most districts in Indonesia are at a low-level vulnerability. The districts with low vulnerability are spread in the Sumatera and Kalimantan area. However, there are 43 Districts in Eastern Indonesia are in a high-level vulnerability. These districts also suffer many problems, such low sosioeconomic status. The results of this study support not only the previous social vulnerability studies but also the government as the policymakers by setting priority regions and allocating the policies according to main social vulnerability problem of each district, especially in the most vulnerable regions.Hingga saat ini, bencana alam masih sering dilihat dari perspektif alam saja. Namun, perlu diketahui bahwa bencana alam tidak hanya tentang bahaya, tetapi juga ketahanan masyarakat untuk mempersiapkan, merespons, dan pulih dari bencana berdasarkan karakteristik sosial yang disebut sebagai kerentanan sosial. Penelitian ini memberikan identifikasi kerentanan sosial terhadap bencana alam dan karakteristik dari faktor-faktor yang dominan mempengaruhi kerentanan pada tingkat kabupaten/kota di Indonesia menggunakan data sekunder. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) digunakan untuk mereduksi 13 variabel ditingkat kabupaten/kota menjadi 4 komponen yang mewakili faktor pendorong kerentanan sosial di Indonesia. Hasil dari PCA digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi tingkat kerentanan sosial di Indonesia dengan menggunakan Social Vulnerability Indeks (SoVI). Kemudian dilanjutkan dengan analisis yang lebih dalam menggunakan K-Means Clustering. Hasil SoVI dan Cluster kemudian dipetakan dengan menggunakan QGIS untuk mengindentifikasi kerentanan sosial ditingkat kabupaten/kota di Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar kabupaten/kota di Indonesia berada pada level tingkat kerentanan yang rendah. Kabupaten/kota dengan tingkat kerentanan yang rendah tersebar di wilayah Sumatera dan Kalimantan. Namun, terdapat 43 kabupaten/kota di Indonesia timur yang memiliki tingkat kerentanan sosial sangat tinggi terhadap bencana alam. Kabupaten/kota ini juga mengalami beberapa masalah seperti rendahnya status sosial ekonomi. Hasil penelitian ini tidak hanya mendukung studi kerentanan sosial sebelumnya tetapi juga pemerintah sebagai pembuat kebijakan dengan menetapkan wilayah prioritas dan mengalokasikan kebijakan sesuai dengan masalah kerentanan sosial utama pada setiap kabupaten/kota, terutama wilayah yang paling rentan
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

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.
