The Existence of Govermental and Environmental Uncertainty on Competitive Advantage of Private Universities
No full textAims: This study aims to illustrate empirically the impact of governance and environmental uncertainty on the quality of B-accredited private universities and their long-term competitive advantage.
Study Design: The method used in this study used descriptive and causal-explanatory methods to test the research hypothesis.
Place and Duration of Study: All private universities accredited by B in Indonesia.
Methodology: This Research used descriptive and causal-explanatory methods. Data for this research were collected using a questionnaire and supplemented with interviews involving various university leaders. A random sampling technique was utilized to select a sample of 136 B-accredited private universities in Indonesia. The data was analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach. The study\u27s findings show that higher education governance has a significant influence on both the quality of higher education and long-term competitive advantage, both directly and indirectly.
Results: In contrast, environmental uncertainty has a major impact on higher education quality but has little effect on long-term competitive advantage. Higher education quality, on the other hand, has a strong beneficial influence on long-term competitive advantage. Furthermore, this research demonstrates that improved quality among B-accredited private institutions boosts their competitive advantage.
Conclusion: This research shows that improving quality among B-accredited private institutions will increase their competitive advantage. Therefore, the results of this investigation provide a valuable contribution in addressing the problem of substandard quality in private universities in Indonesia and expand existing research on environmental governance and communication in university environments
Peran Moderasi Konvergensi IFRS Dalam Hubungan Antara Agresivitas Pelaporan Keuangan dan Return
Get PDFThe purpose of this study is to examine the effect of accrual information quality and the role of IFRS convergence on earnings informativeness measured by ERC in relation to stock price movements occurring in Indonesia. Using manufacturing companies that went public and were listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2004-2013. The use of sample companies in 2004-2007 was before the IFRS convergence and in 2008-2013 after the IFRS convergence. The results showed that earnings response coefficient on earnings information decreased due to reported earnings containing high discretionary accruals. While investor perceptions (ERC) increased after the IFRS convergence
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
MODEL BELIEF-ADJUSMENT DAN PERSEPSI INVESTOR: EKSPERIMENTASI RANGKAIAN INFORMASI PENDEK SEDERHANA DAN RESPONS SIMULTAN
Get PDFThe previous research found that there was effect of positive and negativeinformation order of company annual reports. The objective of this research is to examinewhether the order of positive and negative information of a company in the president letterin annual reports can influence the perception of the investor about the company. Thesubjects of this research are the students of Magister of Management Program in one ofState University in Indonesia. The method used is laboratory experiment. The result of thisresearch implies that the ordering of positive and negative information of a company inimpression management of annual reports can influence investor's perception. Positiveinformation presented at the first part will result in positive judgment on the previous andpotential performance compare with receiving negative information on the first part
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
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
