Assertiveness Training Melalui Bermain Peran dalam Bimbingan Kelompok untuk Meningkatkan Komunikasi Interpersonal
Full text linkThis study aimed to find out the improvement of students’ interpersonal communication skill after coming to assertiveness training through role play method in group guidance. This was a quasi-experimental study with nonequivalent control group design. The number of subjects in this study was ten people in the experimental group and ten people in the control group. The subject of this study was taken by using purposive sampling technique. The data collection instrument for this study was valid and reliable interpersonal communication scale. The data analysis technique in this study was the nonparametric statistic with Mann Whitney U Test or Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test. The result of the data analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the score of experimental and group control. It means that assertive training through role play in group guidance was more effective to improve students’ interpersonal communication skill than the implementation of group guidance without assertiveness training. The result of this study showed that the use of assertiveness training through role play was an effective method in group guidance service for improving students' interpersonal communication. The school counselor can utilize the result of this study to improve the students’ interpersonal communication by using assertiveness training strategy through role play in group guidance service
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
Layanan Informasi Karir dalam Pengambilan Keputusan Karir Siswa Di SMA Katolik Giovanni Kupang
Full text linkThis study analyzes the role of career information services in helping students make career decisions at SMA Katolik Giovanni Kupang. Using a qualitative narrative approach, the research involved guidance and counseling (BK) teachers and 34 students from class XII-H. Data were collected through interviews and observations, then analyzed using data reduction, display, and conclusion techniques. The results showed that many students were still uncertain about choosing study majors and professions that match their interests and abilities. Factors influencing their decisions included parental influence, limited self-understanding, and lack of access to career and higher education information. Findings revealed that 79.4% of students began to understand their interests and talents, 85.3% gained knowledge about job opportunities, and 67.6% were able to make independent career decisions. BK teachers acted as facilitators and motivators, guiding students to identify their potential and connect personal values with societal needs. Despite its effectiveness, the program faced challenges such as limited technological facilities. Overall, the study concludes that career information services play a crucial role in developing students’ independence, confidence, and readiness to enter the professional world
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
Peran Guru BK dalam Pembinaan Kedisiplinan Siswa SMAK Giovanni Kupang Melalui Layanan Bimbingan Kelompok
Full text linkThis study aims to describe the role of Guidance and Counseling (BK) teachers in fostering student discipline at SMA Katolik Giovanni Kupang through group guidance services. The research used a descriptive qualitative approach, collecting data through interviews and observations with the BK teacher and students who had records of tardiness. The findings reveal that the BK teacher plays a strategic role as a facilitator, mediator, and motivator in fostering students’ disciplinary awareness. Group guidance services proved effective in improving students’responsibility and time management, as evidenced by the decrease in tardiness frequency after the sessions. The causes of tardiness include internal factors such as late-night habits and low motivation, and external factors such as transportation issues and limited parental support. The main obstacles were the lack of parental involvement and time constraints for counseling activities. This study concludes that discipline formation is more effectively achieved through humanistic and collaborative educational approaches rather than punitive measures
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
