    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

    This study aims to determine the profitability of Islamic commercial banks in Indonesia reviwed from the effect of NPF ratio and CAR ratio as intervening variable to ROA ratio in 2014-2016. The sampling technique of this research uses purposive sampling with the criteria of Islamic Commercial Banks which are registered in Financial Services Authority during period 2014 until 2016 and Islamic Banks which are consistently publish quarterly report period 2014-2016. The results show that there are 10 BUS with quarterly data amounting to 120. This method of this research uses calculating path analysis method with the help of SPSS 23 program. The test that has been done shows that the NPF ratio has significant effect to ROA ratio which means that the bigger NPF ratio, the bigger cost of eliminating the financing reserve which resulted the income of Islamic commercial bank is decreasing, so it will have an impact to the decrease of ROA ratio.  The NPF ratio significantly influences the CAR ratio, which means that the greater financing risk faced by Islamic commercial banks will increase the formation of allowance for earning assets losses from the equity held, thereby reducing the share of equity which is the component of the capital adequacy. CAR ratios are able to mediate an indirect effects of NPF ratios to ROA ratios.[Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui profitabilitas bank umum syariah di Indonesia yang ditinjau dari pengaruh rasio NPF dan rasio CAR sebagai variabel intervening terhadap rasio ROA pada tahun 2014-2016. Teknik pengambilan sampel penelitian ini menggunakan purposive sampling dengan kriteria Bank Umum Syariah yang terdaftar di Otoritas Jasa Keuangan selama periode 2014 hingga 2016 dan Bank Syariah yang secara konsisten menerbitkan laporan triwulanan periode 2014-2016. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 10 BUS dengan data triwulanan sebesar 120. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis jalur kalkulasi dengan bantuan program SPSS 23. Pengujian yang telah dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa rasio NPF berpengaruh signifikan terhadap rasio ROA yang berarti bahwa semakin besar rasio NPF, semakin besar biaya menghilangkan cadangan pembiayaan yang mengakibatkan pendapatan bank umum syariah menurun, sehingga akan berdampak terhadap penurunan rasio ROA. Rasio NPF secara signifikan mempengaruhi rasio CAR, yang berarti bahwa semakin besar risiko pembiayaan yang dihadapi oleh bank umum syariah akan meningkatkan pembentukan penyisihan kerugian aset produktif dari ekuitas yang dimiliki, sehingga mengurangi bagian ekuitas yang merupakan komponen dari kecukupan modal . Rasio CAR mampu memediasi efek tidak langsung dari rasio NPF ke rasio ROA.

    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

    The purpose of this research is to know the Application effect of sharia principles and service againts customer satisfaction level of murabahah financing product in sharia financial services cooperative in Central Java. The research method is using multiple linear regression test, t test, F test, and R2 test. The results showed that, from the t test results, the service variables proved to be partially significant effect on customer satisfaction with the result of tcount = 5.821> t table = 2.035. While the application of sharia principles variable While the variable application of sharia principles partially has no significant effect on satisfaction with the result tcount= -0.333> t table = -2.035. Then, from the results of the F test of both variables, it simultaneously proved to have a significant effect on satisfaction with the results of Fcount value 30.613 > F table 4.22. From R2 test, it is found that the influence of both variables is 65,7% against customer satisfaction, means independent variable that is application of sharia principles and service influenced simultaneously equal to 65,7% to dependent variable that is customer satisfaction, while the rest 34,3% influenced by other variables outside the two variables used. Keywords: sharia principles, service, customer satisfactio

    Effect of Financing to Deposit Ratio and Operational Efficiency on Profitability (ROA) with NPF as Intervening in Islamic Banks

    The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of Financing to Deposit Ratio and Operational Efficiency on Profitability (ROA) with Non Performing Financing (NPF) as Intervening in Islamic Commercial Banks in Indonesia. This research method uses a quantitative descriptive approach. Research that allows statistical calculations to use numerical data, and is used as a data analysis tool by describing the data collected to finally reach a conclusion. The type of data used in this study is secondary data which is a monthly series of data with a time period of 2015-2021. The data used are financial ratio data provided by Statistics Indonesia Islamic Commercial Banks which include the ratio of Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR), and Operational Efficiency, Return on Assets (ROA) and Non Performing Financing (NPF). Data collection techniques in this study by utilizing field studies. The variables used by the researcher are independent variables which include the ratio of FDR (X1) and Operating Expenses and Operating Income (X2), the dependent variable which includes the ratio of ROA and the intervening variable which includes the ratio of NPF. The data analysis method used in this research is multiple linear regression analysis and path analysis. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to determine the linear relationship between several independent variables (X) and the dependent variable (Y). While the path analysis method is a causality analysis that occurs when exogenous variables directly or indirectly affect endogenous variables. The results showed that partially the FDR and Operational Efficiency variables had an influence on the NPF variable. In addition, only and Operational Efficiency and NPF variables partially have an effect on ROA. Based on the results of the path analysis test, it can be explained that only the Operating Cost of Operating Income (X2) has an indirect effect on Return on Assets (Y) through NPF (Z). That is, the NPF variable is able to mediate the relationship between Operational Costs of Operating Income and Return on Assets

    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
