    A commercial bank is a financial institution that provides a service such as making business loans, offering an investment product, making deposit for the customers and so on. In Malaysia, there has many of commercial banks that are stable in terms of their financial performance. Even though the banking sector in Malaysia is quite good in terms of stability but there is still has an exposure that influencing the commercial bank performance. The specific macroeconomic factors such as inflation and GDP has given a huge impact on the banking sector. This is because the fluctuation of economy performance will give impact an overall of the banking sector. In banking sector, the most crucial factors are level of liquidity efficiency among commercial bank. That are so important to increase the efficiency of the commercial bank performances. The liquidity problem exists when the commercial bank has a lack of the liquid asset such as cash and others. Because of that, the performance of the commercial bank will get an impact. Because of that, the customer or depositor started to feel uncomfortable when the commercial bank begins facing a liquidity problem. In this study, we have used a secondary data. For the dependent variable, we have decided to use the return on asset. While, for the independent variable, we have used the current ratio which is to examines the liquidity positions of the commercial bank. Next, quick ratio which is to examines the short-term solvency of a commercial bank. Then, cash ratio known as an immediate ability of the commercial bank to pay off its short-term commitments. After that, we have used a macroeconomic variable such as inflation and GDP. For the research sample, we have chosen five (5) potential commercial bank in Malaysia such as CIMB Bank, Maybank, Affin Bank, RHB Bank and AmBank. For the data collection, we have collected the data from the year 2009 until 2018. In this study, there is no significant relationship between macroeconomic variables and the return on asset. While, for the liquidity ratio that divided into two (2) such as current ratio and cash ratio has a significant relationship with the return on asset

    Full text link
    The purpose of this study is to compare the differences between 4 minutes of rest interval and 8 minutes of resting interval on sprinting performance among adolescent athletes. A total of thirteen subjects (N=13) of Selangor Sports School athletic athletes was selected through purposive sampling. This study compared the differences between 4 minutes and 8 minutes of rest interval on sprinting performances. On the first day session, all of the subjects performed the plyometric (Post-activation Potentiation) exercise which is the athletes performed 3 sets of 10 alternate-leg bounds (5 contacts per leg per set), with 25 seconds each set recovery time with 4 minutes of rest interval after completed the 3 sets. The 30 meter sprint time was measured with a handheld stopwatch immediately after 4 minutes of the rest interval. On the second day session of this study, the same method was used for 8 minutes of rest interval on sprinting performance. Paired Sample T-test was used to analyze the data between 4 minutes and 8 minutes of rest interval on sprinting performance. The hypothesis was significant differences between 4 minutes and 8 minutes of rest interval after Post Activation Potentiation activities on sprinting performance (M=0.08, sd=0.03). The overall result also indicated that 4 minutes of rest interval on sprinting (M=4.22, sd = 0.10) was better than 8 minutes of rest interval on sprinting (M=4.31, sd = 0.11). Hence, from this study, the result can conclude 4 minutes of rest interval has been associated with better muscular explosives and helps in improving the sprinting performance

    College is often the first time that young people have to manage their own finances. Many students, however, lack the necessary skills for managing their own money. Financial difficulties, frequently the result of bad budgeting habits, are a major contributor to the high dropout rate among college students. Parents know that their kids need to know the basics about money, but many of them don't know how to teach their kids good money management skills. Parents should know that teaching their kids about money doesn't have to be hard or confusing. BudgetBuddy a website that offers student on how to manage their money and divide their money carefully to avoid overspending. The objectives to make sure student can be financially independent and know where to put their money. For example, BudgetBuddy provides a calculation that can calculate their money and automatically divided them into several places such as saving, wants and needs, foods, and bills and commitment. This helps student to manage their expenses and money effectively. This promotes financial independent among student and it corresponds to SULAM's objective of improving community well-being

    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
