Scenarios for Climate Change Mitigation from the Energy Sector in Indonesia: The Role of Fiscal Instruments
No full textAs mandated by the recent Copenhagen Accord, Indonesia submitted a nationally appropriate mitigation actions plan to reduce greenhouse gasses emission by 26% by 2020. However, for now, specific strategies especially appropriate instruments to achieve those targets are yet under early planning stage. This study is an attempt to contribute to the policy design on how Indonesia can achieve that target in particular for the energy sector by looking directly at specific instruments available and under the discretion of Indonesian government particularly the Ministry of Finance. For this purpose, we constructed AGEFIS-E model, a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model with a focus on energy sector and fiscal instruments. As the departure from the previous literature on CGE modeling in Indonesia, this model incorporates explicitly the renewable energy such as geothermal and hydropower. It was used to exercise various scenarios of finding an effective mix of instruments to reduce emissions from the energy sector. We find that a scenario of engineering the energy relative prices through pricing-instruments is an effective way to achieve a given target of reducing emissions from the energy sectors. More specifically, we conclude that removing energy subsidy (fuel and electricity) can contribute to significant reduction in carbon emissions. Adding a carbon tax to the policy mix will complement to find the best scenario to achieve a certain target of emissions reduction. A target of 14% reduction of emissions from the energy sector, for example, can be achieved by removing energy subsidy complemented by a carbon tax of only around US$3/ton CO2. Half of the reduction is attributed to the removing energy subsidy alone, suggesting evidence that the emissions reduction potential of energy pricing reform has been overlooked in the policy agenda.climate change, computable general equilibrium model, fiscal instruments, energy, Indonesia
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

No full textABSTRAK Hermawan, R. Fahmirza Rasyid. 2017. Faktor Daya Tarik Eclipse Sebagai Salah Satu Endorser Shampo Clear Dalam Trailer Eclipse Bebas Putih-Putih Pada Media Online Youtube. Skripsi, Jurusan Seni dan Desain, Fakultas Sastra, Universitas Negeri Malang. Pembimbing: (I) Drs. Didiek Rahmanadji, M.Pd., (II) Heppy Jundan Hendrawan, S.Sn, M.Ds. Kata Kunci: analisis, daya tarik endorser, Clear Eclipse Bebas Putih-putih. Penulisan ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui faktor apa saja yang mempengaruhi daya tarik penonton pada bintang iklan atau endorser (studi kasus pada iklan Clear-Eclipse Bebas Putih-putih yang di publish oleh tim Eclipse Youtuber indonesia). Penulis menggunakan teori 4 indikator variabel yaitu (V-C-P-A) (V) Visibilty Popularitas Selebriti, (C) Credibility Kredibilitas Selebriti, (P) Power Kekuatan (Ciri khas Selebriti), (A) Attraction Daya Pikat Selebriti. Metode dalam Penulisan ini adalah online survei, dengan jenis Penulisan kuantitatif yang menggunakan uji analisis deskriptif (sebab populasi viewers youtube dapat meningkat tak terbatas pada setiap waktu). Responden yang terlibat dalam Penulisan ini sebanyak 100 responden, metode yang digunakan adalah Nonprobability Sampling Method yaitu Purposive Sampling (pengambilan secara random atau acak karena lokasi uji tidak diketahui). Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menyebar kuesioner online. Hasil kesimpulan dari Penulisan ini menunjukkan bahwa faktor yang mempengaruhi daya tarik paling kuat adalah variabel (A) Attraction (Daya Pikat Selebriti) dengan nilai rata-rata tertinggi sebesar 3,94. Faktor ini terbentuk karena adanya pernyataan yang kuat dari salah satu kuisioner variabel (A) Attraction pada pernyataan nomor 1 yang memperoleh rata-rata (Mean) tertinggi sebesar 4,29 (Kategori Sangat Tinggi) dengan responden sebanyak 34 orang atau 44,7% menjawab Sangat Setuju.
