ESG, Firm Value, and Life Cycle: Evidences from South East Asia
Get PDFThis study investigates the impact of ESG performance on future firm value, considering the company's phase in the life cycle. The sample consists of non-financial companies listed in five Southeast Asian (SEA) countries. Data were collected from the Refinitiv Eikon Database, with samples determined using a purposive sampling technique. The study covers the period from 2013 to 2022, resulting in 1,080 firm-year observations. Using multiple regression analysis, the study finds that ESG performance is related to the next year's firm value in SEA companies. ESG performance impacts firm value only when the company is in the mature stage, while mixed relationships were observed when individual ESG dimensions were tested. These findings support the notion that the effects of ESG-related performance may not be immediately reflected in the current years firm value but rather in the future
Analisis Perbandingan Manfaat Dan Biaya Stasiun Pemadam Kebakaran Kota Lhokseumawe
Get PDFDengan meraknya bencana kebakaran yang terjadi di Kota Lhokseumawe membuat resah masyarakat yang tinggal di kawasan tersebut. Namun saat ini pemerintah Kota Lhokseumawe sudah melakukan antisipasi terhadap kebakaran. Salah satunya dengan membangun sarana stasiun pemadam kebakaran kebakaran yang berlokasi di jalan medan-banda aceh, cunda Kota Lhokseumawe. Dalam pembangunan stasiun pemadam kebakaran pemerintah Kota Lhoseumawe menggunakan anggaran APBA dengan harapan dapat memberi manfaat dari stasiun pemadam kebakaran tersebut. Pembangunan stasiun pemadam kebakaran ini sudah menghabiskan biaya yang tidak sedikit, perlu dilakukan suatu analisa untuk mengetahui apakah biaya yang dikeluarkan pemerintah sebanding dengan manfaat yang didapatkan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui perbandingan manfaat dan biaya stasiun pemadan kebakaran Kota Lhokseumawe. Dari hasil perbandingan manfaat dan biaya biaya pemadam kebakaran Kota Lhokseumawe berdasarkan tingkat suku bunga 10% dan umur proyek diperkirakan 20 tahun diperoleh Nilai Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) sebesar 8,77 dengan manfaat bagi masyarakat dan pemerintah dalam bentuk nilai sekarang total sebesar RP. 158.777.586.000 dan total biaya yang dikeluarkan oleh pemerintah untuk biaya pembangunan, biaya operasional dan biaya perawatan pemadam kebakaran Kota Lhokseumawe pada nilai sekarang sebesar Rp. 18. 092. 800.908.

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
