Kesetiaan Merek Vs Perilaku Berpindah: Apakah Kecenderungan Untuk Berpindah, Persepsi Kemudahan Penggunaan, Dan Persepsi Resiko Mampu Membentuk Perilaku?
Get PDFAbstractPurpose - This study is aimed to examine the effect of propensity to switch, perceived ease of use, and perceived risk on brand loyalty and switching behavior.Design/methodology/approach - Utilizing purposive random sampling, a number of 100 customers of 36 brands of 12 product categories were asked to fill in the questionnaire as primary survey data. To analyze the measurement model, structural model, and the good fit model, this study made use of the structural equation model.Findings - Propensity to switch significantly positive affects brand loyalty and switching behavior; whereas perceived of ease of use significantly positive affects brand loyalty and significantly negative affects switching behavior; and perceived risk significantly negative affects brand loyalty and significantly positive affects switching behaviorResearch limitation - A more numbers of respondents and more variations of respondents’ background should be considered for future study. A propensity to be a loyal customer variable should also be added in the model.Originality/value - This study takes a look at two different points of views of customer behaviors, those are customers who remain to stay with one brand and those are who always seek for something new and keep switching
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
Pengaruh Brand Image terhadap Brand Loyalty dengan Satisfaction dan Brand Trust sebagai Variabel Mediasi (Studi Kasus pada Smartphone Merek Xiaomi di Yogyakarta)
Get PDFThe rapid growth of the Smartphone industry. Xiaomi, which is a smartphone manufacturer, experienced a decline in sales from Q3 2022 to Q1 2023. So researchers intend to test the influence of brand image, satisfaction and brand trust on brand loyalty on Xiaomi brand smartphones in Yogyakarta. This research uses a descriptive quantitative approach. There was a sample of 160 respondents, using structural equation model (SEM) data analysis techniques with partial least squares (PLS) statistical tools. It was found that the test results showed that brand image has a positive and significant impact on brand loyalty. Brand image has a positive and significant impact on satisfaction. Brand image has a positive and significant impact on brand trust. Satisfaction has a positive and significant impact on brand loyalty. Brand trust has a positive and significant impact on brand loyalty. Satisfaction cannot mediate between brand image and brand loyalty. However, brand trust can mediate between brand image and brand loyalty
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
