sakum i Rökstenens inskrift
In Bo Ralph’s recent book on the Rök rune-stone he interprets the sequence sakum (sᴀɢwᴍ) as sāgum ‘we saw’ (Ralph 2021, 907–13), a lexico-morphologically unobjectionable solution. He rejects (pp. 148–54, 899) the previous and almost universally accepted interpretation sagum ‘we say’. This short contribution establishes that sagum is a possible variant of the ninth-century Runic Swedish verb sægia. It belongs to an ē/ja-conjugation where some forms are inflected according to the former paradigm and others to the latter. In Old High German, Old and Middle Dutch, and Old English descendants of both *sagjan and *sagēn are attested. Given the presence in Old Scandinavian of the 2nd and 3rd person present singular segir and the perfect participle sagaðr, which both are ē-inflections, there is reason to expect that even more ē-forms once existed in Old Scandinavian. The sequence sakum (sᴀɢwᴍ) in the Rök inscription may therefore represent sagum, a 1st person form of sægia ‘say’. Whether this or Ralph’s interpretation is the best depends on the contextual understanding of the text.https://doi.org/10.33063/diva-491885</p
PENGARUH WORD OF MOUTH TERHADAP KEPUTUSAN PEMBELIAN KONSUMEN: Studi pada Konsumen Baso Sakum
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh word of mouth terhadap keputusan pembelian konsumen Baso Sakum. Penelitian didasari atas hasil perhatian penulis terhadap fenomena sebuah bisnis Food and Beverage (FnB) yang tidak melakukan pemasaran secara digital alias tidak memiliki media sosial, namun tetap ramai karena diduga pemasaran dilakukan melalui word of mouth yang memiliki peran penting dalam memengaruhi persepsi dan pilihan konsumen dalam menentukan keputusan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode survei untuk mengumpulkan data dari 100 responden yang merupakan konsumen Baso Sakum. Instrumen penelitian meliputi kuesioner yang dirancang untuk mengukur intensitas word of mouth yang diterima oleh konsumen dan dampaknya terhadap keputusan pembelian mereka. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan regresi linier berganda untuk mengidentifikasi hubungan antara variabel word of mouth dan keputusan pembelian konsumen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa word of mouth memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap keputusan pembelian konsumen Baso Sakum dengan nilai koefisien determinasi sebesar 58,5%. Temuan ini menekankan pentingnya strategi pemasaran yang memanfaatkan word of mouth positif dan mengelola word of mouth negatif untuk memengaruhi keputusan pembelian konsumen secara efektif. Penelitian ini menyarankan pelaku bisnis untuk lebih fokus pada menciptakan pengalaman positif bagi pelanggan dan memantau serta merespons umpan balik negatif untuk memaksimalkan pengaruh word of mouth terhadap keputusan pembelian. :
This research aims to examine the influence of word of mouth on consumer purchasing decisions at Baso Sakum. The research is motivated by the observation of a Food and Beverage (FnB) business that does not engage in digital marketing or maintain social media presence, yet remains popular, presumably due to marketing through word of mouth, which plays a crucial role in influencing consumer perceptions and choices when making decisions. This research was conducted with quantitative methods through survey to collect data from 100 respondents who are consumer of Baso Sakum. The research instrument includes a questionnaire designed to measure the intensity of word of mouth received by consumers and its impact on their purchasing decisions. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression to identify the relationship between word of mouth variables and consumer purchasing decisions. The results indicate that word of mouth has a significant impact on consumer purchasing decisions at Baso Sakum, with a coefficient of determination value of 58,5%. These findings highlight the importance of marketing strategies that leverage positive word of mouth and manage negative word of mouth to effectively influence consumer purchasing decisions. The study suggests that the company should focus more on creating positive customer experiences and monitoring and responding to negative feedback to maximize the influence of word of mouth on purchasing decisions
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
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
