    Along with decentralization, poverty alleviation efforts are not only the responsibility of the central government but also the local government by presenting various policies. One policy that is considered to empower the community is the policy of poverty alleviation through home surgery program conducted by North Halmahera District Government precisely in North Loloda District. The purpose of this research is to analyze the implementation of poverty alleviation policy through home surgery program. The results of this study show the implementation of the home surgery program is not in accordance with the program objectives and expectations of the program itself, this is seen from: First, the lack of communication or socialization directly to the community about the home surgery program. Secondly, the manpower who used to make the house is a Civil Servant who certainly has no expertise in working and making homes and budgets that are not available in the North Halmahera District Budget in 2011 and part of the budget is collected of the contributions of certain parties. Thirdly, local governments do not have a commitment in terms of honesty and democratic, wherein the implementation of programs in the field there are still jobs that are not on the target program and there is injustice in determining target families. Fourth, the implementation of the program is not in accordance with the mechanism as expected because the project of home surgery program is not planned and planned in the Regional Budget in 2011, also some of the funds collected from non-governmental organizations and Civil Servants and labor in use work is a civil servant

    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

    Upaya Memperkuat Desa: Suatu Implementasi Kebijakan Pengangkatan Tenaga Kontrak Daerah Di Kabupaten Halmahera Utara

    Full text link
    The effort to strengthen the village is the constitutional mandate contained in Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages. the law is considered to place the village government as the subject of development in the village, has broad autonomy, and has broad authority in regulating governance in accordance with the potential of each village. On the other hand, there are concerns from the village government because they do not have the ability to carry out the village law mandate. Responding to village worries in North Halmahera, a North Halmahera Regent Decree was born numbered 814.1 / 2018 concerning Appointment of Regional Contract Workers with Work Agreements in Villages in North Halmahera Regency. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the policy for the appointment of regional contract workers in an effort to strengthen villages in North Halmahera Regency. Furthermore, this study uses qualitative research methods. Because of this the unit of analysis of this research is the village government of the Central Tobelo sub-district and the results of this study indicate that the Regional Government Policy of the North Halmahera Regency in the appointment of regional contract workers did not run smoothly in accordance with the program\u27s objectives, due to lack of communication or direct socialization to the village government or community. Most of the contract workers assigned in the villages cannot carry out their main tasks, because of their limited capacity and because they are not given assignments by the local village government. As for funding this program, there is no problem, all regional contract workers are paid above the district minimum wage standard. In the implementation of regional contract personnel recruitment has been carried out openly and transparently. Furthermore, there is no good collaboration between the Regional Personnel Agency and Apparatus Resources with the Community and Village Empowerment Agency in coaching and training so that contract workers cannot carry out their duties properly

    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
