ANALISIS PENERIMAAN PENGGUNA TERHADAP SITUS JEJARING SOSIAL SEBAGAI SALURAN PENGADUAN KELUHAN
Get PDFPopularitas situs jejaring sosial terus berkembang dengan cepat. Banyak perusahaan menggunakan situs jejaring sosial sebagai bagian dari strategi bisnis perusahaan. Situs jejaring sosial menawarkan banyak keuntungan, khususnya untuk meningkatkan komunikasi. Situs jejaring sosial memiliki potensi sebagai saluran pengaduan baru bagi pelanggan generasi muda untuk menyampaikan keluhan mereka ke perusahaan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji penerimaan pengguna terhadap teknologi situs jejaring sosial sebagai saluran pengaduan baru berdasarkan technology acceptance model (TAM). Kuesioner didistribusikan kepada partisipan generasi muda melalui dua cara, paper questionnaire dan electronic questionnaire, menghasilkan total 222 kuesioner valid. Selanjutnya, penelitian ini melakukan uji validitas dan reliabilitas untuk melihat kekuatan model pengukuran. Kemudian melakukan uji structural equation modeling (SEM) untuk menguji hubungan antar konstruk yang diusulkan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa persepsi kegunaan (perceived usefulness) dan kemudahan (perceived ease of use) memiliki pengaruh positif terhadap sikap pengguna (attitude). Selain itu, sikap pengguna memiliki peranan penting dalam memprediksi niat pengguna (intention to use) untuk menggunakan situs jejaring sosial sebagai saluran pengaduan keluhan. Namun, hasil penelitian menunjukan perceived usefulnesss tidak memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap intention to use
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
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
EXAMINING THE TECHNOLOGY ACCEPTANCE MODEL IN THE ADOPTION OF NARCOTIC PRECURSOR REPORTING SYSTEM (SIPPRE)
Get PDFThe use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) among pharmacy professionals is increasing. Narcotic Precursor Reporting System (SIPPRE) is one of these technologies and can be used to supervise the distribution of narcotic precursors. The aim of this study is to investigate the predicting factors that influence the intention to use SIPPRE among pharmacy professionals. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used to shape the theoretical foundation for this study comprising perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude toward use, and intention to use. A quantitative approach was applied, using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire, adapted from previous studies. The participants for this study comprised 157 pharmacy professionals. The Results obtained using structural equation modeling indicated that pharmacy professionals perceived SIPPRE as an easy to use and useful system, and they favored its use in the future. In addition, perceived ease of use and usefulness significantly influenced attitudes toward the system. Apart from that, attitude toward use had a positive relationship with intention to use SIPPRE among pharmacy professionals. Surprisingly, perceived usefulness had a negative correlation with an intention to use. Overall, the TAM is a valid model to help explain pharmacy professional's intention to use SIPPRE. The results of this study provided useful insights for healthcare agencies to recognize the key elements that could improve the narcotic precursor reporting management.Â
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
