Karakteristik Peternak Sapi di Sentra Produksi Ternak Potong Di Kabupaten Sorong: Characteristics of Cattle Breeders in Beef Cattle Production Centers in Sorong Regency
Full text linkAbstract
The development of beef cattle needs to be supported by regional potential which includes natural resources and human resources. Sorong Regency is one of the areas for beef cattle development in West Papua Province. This research was conducted for three months, from February to April 2021. The study was conducted in four districts that have a high population of beef cattle in Sorong Regency, West Papua Province. namely Salawati District, Segun District, Mayamuk District, and Moisegen. This research was conducted using a survey method with interview techniques and field observations. Breeding experience, education, age have a relationship with the number of livestock kept. The result showed that farmers were in the productive age and had low education. The traditional rearing with extensive system was a common management practice with less than six cows per household. The experience of rearing cattle, age and education had a correlation with number of cows per household (r<0.05). However, there was not very strong relationship with the variable number of beef cattle. The land area factor does not affect the number of livestock and education was not influence management system. It concluded that livestock activity purposed was not up to business level but it was only for saving purposes.

Abstrak
Pengembangan ternak potong perlu didukung oleh potensi wilayah yang mencakup sumberdaya alam dan sumberdaya manusia. Kabupaten Sorong merupakan salah satu wilayah pengembangan ternak potong di Provinsi Papua Barat. Penelitian dilakukan di empat distrik yang memiliki populasi ternak sapi potong yang cukup tinggi di Kabupaten Sorong Provinsi Papua Barat. yaitu Distrik Salawati, Distrik Segun, Distrik Mayamuk, dan Moisegen, pada bulan Februari sampai dengan April 2021. Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan metode survei dengan teknik wawancara dan observasi lapangan. Kriteria responden pada penelitian ini adalah memiliki sapi > 3 ekor dan memiliki pengalaman beternak lebih dari 3 tahun. Penentuan jumlah sampel menggunakan rumus Slovin. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa karakteristik peternak antara lain: berada pada usia produktif, memiliki pendidikan yang cukup rendah, pengalaman beternak yang cukup lama dan tingkat kepemilikan ternak yang rendah. Sistem pemeliharaan ternak bersifat tradisional dengan pemberian pakan dan pengobatan seminimal mungkin. Pengalaman beternak, pendidikan, umur memiliki hubungan dengan jumlah ternak yang dipelihara. Hal ini ditunjukkan dengan nilai koefiesien korelasi r= (r <0.05). Pengalaman beternak dan pendidikan memiliki keeratan hubungan yang tidak terlalu kuat terhadap variabel jumlah ternak sapi potong. Faktor luas lahan tidak mempengaruhi jumlah ternak yang dipelihara. Hal ini dikarenakan sistem pemeliharaan yang dilakukan peternak dominan dengan sistem umbar terbatas dan pemberian pakan ditambah dari sumber lain seperti pinggir jalan dan sumber lain. Faktor luas lahan tidak mempengaruhi jumlah ternak yang dipelihara. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa peternak di sentra peternakan sapi Kabupaten Sorong masih bersifat tradisional yang bertujuan untuk tabungan keluarga dan secara umum belum berorientasi bisnis.

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

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.
