Dimensi Sosiologis Dalam Kebijakan Pembangunan Nagari di Sumatera Barat (Studi Kasus: Nagari Sungai Pua Kab. Agam)
Full text linkThe purpose of this activity is to determine the Sociological Dimension in Village Development Policy in West Sumatra (case study: Sungai Pua Village, Agam Regency). The research method used is qualitative descriptive type. Data collection techniques used are such as: interviews, observations, and document/literature analysis. Interviews were conducted by preparing guidelines and equipment such as notes and stationery. The data analysis technique in this study used a qualitative approach based on Miles Huberman's theory which includes three stages: data collection, data reduction, and data presentation. The conclusion of the study is that the Village Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJM Nagari) in Sungai Pua Village, Agam Regency which is regulated in Agam Regency Regional Regulation Number 12 of 2007 is a comprehensive village development plan for the next five years, including budget policies and priority programs to be implemented. The RPJM Nagari is prepared to provide guidance in managing the potential and problems of the village for the village community and institutions at a higher level
Peranan Sosiologi Dalam Kebijakan Pemerintah Terhadap Interaksi Sosial Dan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat
Full text linkThe government is an institution that has the authority and responsibility to regulate and manage the government affairs of a country or region. The government is tasked with making policies that are in accordance with the needs and aspirations of the community, and also implementing these policies by taking concrete actions. Sociology also discusses the inequality that occurs in society related to social class, gender, ethnicity, and other factors. Sociology will also analyze various things so that patterns of injustice and discrimination that occur can be identified and explained. Then, the authorities can take solutions to this inequality. Social interaction between human groups also occurs in society. This interaction is more dominant when there is a clash between individual interests and group interests. Overcoming the problems faced, of course, many obstacles and challenges are found. However, the role of local government to bear such a great risk is not only a necessity but also how the government embraces all components of society to be included in the process of regional development and community empowerment
PARTISIPASI MASYARAKAT TERHADAP PEMBERDAYAAN UKM EKONOMI MASYARAKAT DAN DAMPAK SOSIOLOGIS (Studi Kec. Kamang Magek, Kab Agam)
Full text linkUsaha Kecil dan Menengah (UKM) berperan sebagai kekuatan strategis dan memiliki posisi penting, bukan saja dalam penyerapan tenaga kerja dan kesejahteraan masyarakat di daerah, dalam banyak hal mereka menjadi perekat dan menstabilkan masalah kesenjangan sosial. Usaha Kecil Menengah (UKM) memiliki kelenturan menghadapi badai krisis, hal ini antara lain disebabkan oleh tingginya krisis pada faktor-faktor produksi industri, baik pada penggunaan bahan baku maupun pelaksanaan. Selain itu, usaha mereka pada umumnya berbasis pada kebutuhan masyarakat luas dan memiliki keunggulan komparatif. Berbagai peran strategis dimiliki sektor usaha kecil menengah, namun sektor ini juga dihadapkan berbagai permasalahan. Kendala dan permasalahan antara lain dari aspek permodalan, kemampuan manajemen usaha, dan kualitas sumberdaya manusia pengelolanya. Kendala dan permasalahan usaha kecil dan informal lainnya juga disebabkan karena sulitnya akses terhadap informasi dan sumberdaya produktif seperti modal dan teknologi, yang berakibat menjadi terbatasnya kemampuan usaha kecil untuk berkembang sehingga berdampak secara sosiologis
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
