Psychological Dynamics of Society about Minimum Age Limit Change for Marriage from the Perspective of Religious Court Judges during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia
Get PDFUnderage marriage (UM) has increased globally, including in Indonesia. This was triggered by changes in the Marriage Law (UU) which increased the minimum age for women to marry from 16 to 19 years old and was followed by the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic. This study examines the psychological dynamics of society related to changes in the minimum age limit for marriage from the perspective of Religious Court judges in Indonesia. A descriptive qualitative approach was used by conducting semi-structured interviews with 20 judges from 16 Religious Courts in Indonesia who handle marriage dispensation cases. This process was followed by data collation, coding, classification, and analysed by the deductive thematic technique. As a result, participants conveyed the background of the age limit change and the public's reaction after the change. Some participants stated that the age limit change is not the authority of the court or judge. Some others said that the increase in the minimum age limit for marriage was carried out based on the risks behind underage marriage. These risks are psychological factors, reducing the number of UM cases, preventing divorce, gender equality, and reasons for education, work, and physical condition. Public showed various responses; obeying the rules, not knowing about the regulatory changes, and being against it. Basically, the new Marriage Law seeks to stop the UM trend. The government needs to conduct socialization about the age limit change and the risks of UM. Cooperation from various parties is also needed, especially from parents who need to pay more attention to their children
Academic Motivation and Social Support as Predictors of College Readiness in Post-Pandemic Students
Get PDFCollege readiness refers to students' ability to successfully transition to higher education without requiring remedial coursework. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced new policies in the education sector, particularly the widespread implementation of online learning across all educational levels. This shift has led to limited interaction between students and teachers, negatively affecting students' college readiness. This study aims to investigate the relationship between academic motivation and social support on college readiness in the post-COVID-19 context. A total of 294 respondents participated in this study by completing a questionnaire. The instruments used include the CAYCI Career and College Readiness Scale, the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS), and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). Data were analyzed using linear regression with JAMOVI software version 2.5.3. The results show a significant relationship between academic motivation and social support with college readiness (p 0.001). Consequently, the null hypothesis is rejected. To promote optimal college readiness, it is recommended that schools implement specialized programs focused on college preparation, such as regular academic tutoring, independent learning skills training, and mentoring activities can be implemented as external support mechanisms to strengthen students’ college readiness. Future research should also examine additional factors influencing college readiness among students
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
FAKTOR-FAKTOR PENGHAMBAT MENINGKATNYA KEMAMPUAN PUBLIKASI DI PROGRAM STUDI PSIKOLOGI UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA
Get PDFLecturers and students are the main actors in higher education who are tasked with implementing the Tri Dharma of Higher Education namely education / teaching, research, and community service (Law No. 12 of 2012, Article 1 Paragraph 9). The fact that is happening now, lecturers and students are still having difficulties in implementing the Tri Dharma, especially in research. One proof that shows the low publication in Indonesia is the Scimago Journal and Country Rank (2015) data which placed Indonesia in the 49th place in the world and 11th in Asia in 2015. Therefore, this study aims to determine what factors include the limited costs become an obstacle in improving the publication capacity of the Psychology study program at Sunan Kalijaga State Islamic University in Yogyakarta. The researcher used a qualitative method namely semi-structured interviews. The subjects of this study were 20 people consisting of lecturers and Psychology students at Sunan Kalijaga State Islamic University. The results of this study indicate that there are many obstacles and obstacles in publicizing the psychology study program of Sunan Kalijaga State Islamic University. These constraints lead to the lack of understanding of the research subject to the use of technology for publication.
Dosen dan mahasiswa merupakan pelaku utama di perguruantinggi yang bertugas melaksanakan Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi yaitu pendidikan/pengajaran, penelitian, dan pengabdian masyarakat (UU No. 12 Tahun 2012, Pasal 1 Ayat 9). Kenyataan yang terjadi saat ini, dosen dan mahasiswa masih kesulitan dalam melaksanakan tri dharma tersebut, terutama pada penelitian. Salah satu bukti yang menunjukkan rendahnya publikasi di Indonesia adalah data Scimago Journal and Country Rank (2015) yang menempatkan Indonesia pada peringkat 49 di dunia dan 11 di Asia pada tahun 2015. Oleh sebab itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor apa selaian keterbatasan biaya yang menjadi penghambat dalam meningkatkan kemampuan publikasi di prodi Psikologi UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta.

Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ada banyakkendala dan hambatan dalam melakukan publikasi di prodi psikologi UIN Sunan Kalijaga. Kendala tersebut bermuara dari ketidakpahaman subjek penelitian terhadap pemanfaatan teknologi untuk melakukan publikasi
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
The Effect of Deep Breathing Technique on Children’s Concentration
Get PDFOne of the developmental tasks a child should complete is to concentrate. However, some children failed to concentrate, causing difficulty in processing the stimulus thoroughly. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of deep breathing techniques in improving children’s concentration. Applying the pretest-posttest control group quasi-experimental method, this study involved sixteen students who were assigned into experimental (n=9) and control (n=7) groups. Participants were selected using a purposive sampling technique. The data were collected using digit span and analyzed using Mann-Whitney U. The study result showed that the deep breathing technique was effective in improving children’s concentration. Thus, school counselors are recommended to optimize deep breathing techniques to improve their concentration
