    The Influence of Orientation on the Anxiety Level of Patients Treated in the Internal Room of Pelamonia Hospital

    Full text link
    Patients admitted to hospital often experience anxiety ranging from mild to severe anxiety. It is suspected that the nurse has not carried out the orientation optimally. Patients often ask questions and don't know the place of service and the procedure to be carried out, on the other hand, patients who receive an explanation show a positive response. However, until now the influence of orientation on anxiety levels is not known. The design used was a pre-experiment in one group (one-group pre-test post-test) with a population of all patients in the intensive care unit at Pelamonia Hospital. The sample size was 56 patients whose selection was carried out by purposive sampling. The independent variable is providing orientation to patients. The dependent variable is the level of anxiety. The data collection method uses a questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed rank statistical test with a significance level of p0.05. The results showed that there was an influence of orientation on the patient's anxiety level (p=0.001 Z= -3.289). Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that if nurses carry out orientation to patients according to procedures, the patient's anxiety level will decrease. Further research needs to be carried out regarding the influence of orientation on more specific patient anxiety levels

    Latar Belakang: AKI di Indonesia masih sangat tinggi, sebanyak 228 ibu meninggal dunia pada setiap 100.000 kelahiranhidup. Sementara target pemerintah adalah menurunkan AKI menjadi I02 per 100.000 kelahiran hidup pada tahun 2015 (Profil Kesehatan Indonesia Tahun 2012). Cakupan kunjungan ibuhamil K1 di Indonesia pada Tahun 2011 adalah 95,7l % dari target 95% dan kunjungan ibu hamil K4 sebanyak 88,27 % dari target 90 % (Kemenkes RI, 20l2).

Galesong UtaraTahun 2019. Hasil Penelitian: lbu Hamil dengan antenatal care lengkap sebanyak 30 responden (60%)dan yang tidak lengkap sebanyak 20 responden (40,0%), Pemanfaatan antenatal care terbanyak pada ibu hamil yang berpendidikan rendah sebanyak 42 respnden (84,0%), Pemanfaatan antenatal care lebih banyak pada ibu hamil yang tidak bekerja sebanyak 42 responden (84.0%), Pemanfatan antenatal carelebih banyak dimanfaatkan oleh ibu hamil yang memiliki parita srendah sebanyak 48 responden (96.0%), Pemanfaatan antenatal care lebih banyak responden yang berpendapat bahwa sikap petugas yang baik adalah sebanyak 45 (90.0%). Kesimpulan: terdapat hubungan pendidikan, pekerjan, paritas, sikap ibu terhadap antenatal careBackground: MMR in Indonesia is still very high, as many as 228 mothers die in every 100,000 live births. While the government's target is to reduce MMR to 100,000 per 100,000 live births in 2015 (Indonesian Health Profile 2012). Coverage of K1 mothers visiting Indonesia in 2011 was 95.71% of the target of 95% and K4 visits for pregnant women were 88.27% of the target of 90% (Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia, 2012). Aim: This study aims to obtain an overview of the use of antenatal care in pregnant women in Puskesmas Aeng-Towa Puskesmas. Galesong Utara Tahun 2019. Method: thisis survey research with a descriptive method to get an overview of the use of antenatal care in mothers at PuskesmasAeng-Towa Kec. Galesong Utara 2019. Results: Pregnant mothers with complete antenatal care were 30 respondents (60%) and incomplete were 20 respondents (40.0%). The highest utilization of antenatal care in pregnant women with low education was 42 respondents (84 , 0%), Utilization of antenatal care is more in pregnant women who do not work as many as 42 respondents (84.0%), Utilization of antenatal care is more utilized by pregnant women who have a parita as low as 48 respondents (96.0%), more use of antenatal care respondents who think that the attitude of a good officer is 45 (90.0%). Conclusion:this study showed that there is relationship between education, work, parity, mother's attitude to the antenatal car

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    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
