    Mediation is one way to try to solve a disagreement. In this process, both sides agree to bring in a neutral third party to act as a mediator.The purpose of this research is to examine the case of Deed of Peace No. 001/AP/III/2021, in which a lawsuit was filed against the doctor due to malpractice that resulted in the death of the patient. As for the method that researchers uses an empirical legal approach, and the type of legal study is a full analysis of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The research and talk about it have led to a scientific work that is complete, clear, detailed, and well organized. Empirical Legal Research is a legal research method that uses empirical facts derived from human behavior, including both verbal behavior obtained through interviews and direct observation of real behavior. Empirical research is also used to look at the results of people's actions by looking at physical remains and old records. The results of this study are the constraints on the implementation of malpractice settlements in Deed of Peace No. 001/AP/III/2020 that are internal and external. Obstacles from within (internal) in the form of a lack of commitment and intention on the parties' part to reconcile While the inhibiting factors from outside (external) are the inability of the mediator to reconcile, the existence of advocates who seek profit by choosing the court route, and the absence of a special institution that is domiciled as a legal institution in each hospital, such as hospital ethics and law committees

    The law says that doctors and dentists have the right to perform medical actions because their jobs are unique. A doctor who does not obtain consent for legal medical action and/or performs medical practices that are not in accordance with professional standards violates human rights and health. Violations of the right to health are also violations of human rights. The goal of this study is to examine the authority of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI), a professional organization that provides recommendations for the issuance of licenses to practice for doctors practicing in Indonesia, and how it, along with the Indonesian Medical Council (KKI), contributes to the maintenance and promotion of the professionalism and ethics of its members (the medical profession). The approach used in this study is a normative legal approach that focuses on the results of positive legal research. As for the results of this study, cooperation between the professional organization of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI) and the Central Government and Regency/City Regional Governments for medical practice licensing services and supervisory boards is needed to maintain the professionalism of IDI as the only professional doctor organization in Indonesia

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    The Elusive Justice: Analyzing Disparities in Judges' Decisions on Domestic Psychic Violence Cases

    No full text
    This study aimed to analyze the basis for judges' considerations in cases of domestic psychological violence and to examine the causes of disparities in judges' decisions. The research employed a normative juridical research method. The results showed that judges' considerations in domestic psychological violence cases were based on three factors: juridical, sociological, and ideal philosophical considerations, which resulted in different decisions. The study found that disparities in judges' decisions could not be eliminated due to various influencing factors. Nonetheless, the act of psychological violence is considered a crime that disturbs family harmony and is prohibited by Law No. 23 of 2004. This research has implications for the need to establish clear guidelines for judges in handling domestic psychological violence cases to ensure consistency and fairness in the legal system. Highlights: • The judge's considerations in domestic psychological violence cases include juridical, sociological, and ideal philosophical aspects. • Different considerations can result in different decisions, even in similar cases. • Acts of psychological violence in the household are prohibited by Law No. 23 of 2004 and can disrupt family harmony

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We 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 text
    We 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
