Micro-enterprise Owners’ Loyalty Towards Their Favourite Bank: A Conceptual Framework
No full textA loyal customer costs less to retain than acquiring a new customer. Loyal customers stick to the same service provider for a longer time period.

The Fulfillment of Women's Rights in Verstek Decisions at Samarinda and Sangatta Religious Court
No full textThis study examines the progressivity of judges in deciding cases without the presence of the litigants (Verstek) which is linked to the fulfillment of women's rights in the Samarinda Religious Court and the Sagata Religious Court. This is because almost 80% of divorce case trials in the Religious Courts are not attended by the parties; So the case was decided by the judge through Verstek. This study was conducted to find out the influence of a Judge's progressivity on protecting the rights of women (wives) after divorcing their husbands. This research is a documentation study carried out by examining several Judges' decisions which were decided in Verstek both in cases of talaq divorce (divorce filed under the will of the husband) and contested divorce (divorce filed under the will of the wife). This study was carried out by using a case study approach combined with a legal study approach; while in the analysis stage, the author uses qualitative descriptive analysis methods. The results of the research conclude that in Verstek decisions the judges tend to be progressive in accommodating women's rights after divorce, both in cases of Talak divorce and contested divorce
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
