Determinants of Taxpayers’ Use Behavior of Cambodia Road Tax Mobile Payment in Siem Reap
Purpose: Cambodia Road Tax Mobile Payment Application (CRTMPA) can increase versatility, faster transaction, greater convenience, time-saving, and lower costs. Therefore, this study examines determinants of taxpayers’ use behavior of CRTMPA in Siem Reap. The conceptual framework is constructed with perceived usefulness, ease of use, trust, social influence, facilitating condition, behavioral intention, and use behavior. Research design, data, and methodology: This quantitative study employs 500 taxpayers in Siem Reap who have experienced using road tax mobile payment applications were investigated. The sample techniques are judgmental and convenience sampling. The Item Objective Congruence (IOC) Index and the pilot test (n=50) conducted the content validity and internal consistency. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were applied to analyze the data and test hypotheses. Results: The Findings show that perceived usefulness, social influence, and facilitating conditions significantly impact behavioral intention. Perceived ease of use also significantly impacts perceived usefulness. In addition, trust and behavioral intention significantly impact the use behavior of CRTMPA among Cambodian taxpayers. On the contrary, perceived ease of use does not significantly impact behavioral intention. Conclusions: General Department of Taxation, tax branch directors, ICT policymakers, and related businesses should consider the significant factors to ensure the successful adoption of CRTMPA
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Examining Taxpayers’ Behavior in Phnom Penh to Use Cambodia Road Tax Mobile Payment Application
Purpose: Cambodia Road Tax Mobile Payment Application (CRTMPA) was newly introduced in 2021, and the system requires a large adoption among its citizen. Hence, this study investigates the behavioral intention and use behavior of taxpayers in Phnom Penh to use CRTMPA. The conceptual framework is constructed with perceived usefulness, ease of use, trust, social influence, facilitating condition, behavioral intention, and use behavior. Research design, data, and methodology: 500 taxpayers in Phnom Penh who have experienced using road tax mobile payment applications were investigated. The sample techniques are judgmental and convenience sampling. The Item Objective Congruence (IOC) Index and the pilot test (n=50) conducted the content validity and internal consistency. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were applied to analyze the data and test hypotheses. Results: All hypotheses are supported in this study. Perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, social influence, and facilitating conditions significantly impact behavioral intention. Perceived ease of use also significantly impacts perceived usefulness. In addition, trust and behavioral intention significantly impact the use behavior of CRTMPA among Cambodian taxpayers. Conclusions: This study contributes to the General Department of Taxation, tax branch directors, ICT policymakers, and related businesses to improve the adoption rate of CRTMPA
Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
We 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
We 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
