Does search engine query data contribute to returns and liquidity?
This study attempts to identify the impact of investor's attention which is surrogated by the search engine query data on the internet using Google on returns and liquidity. The data used in this study is extracted from Google Trend data set, and hand-collected data from the Indonesia Capital Market Directory (ICMD). By employing panel data analysis, our results show that search engine query data (information retrieval) by using the internet (Google) is clearly an important method of attenuating the level of asymmetry information between the informed and un-informed investors. Moreover, the utilization of microeconomic factors such as financial or non-financial information that can be easily obtained from the annual reports are strongly useful in helping investors preparing their portfolio of investment. Meanwhile, the macroeconomics factors such as inflation, interest rate, exchange rate, and GDP are the country-level effect which results in either positive or negative impact on retur..
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
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
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
Pengaruh Pemberian Imbangan Hijauan Daun Singkong (Manihot utilissima) dengan Konsentrat Terhadap Produksi Susu Kambing Peranakan Etawah (PE)
Rangga Rosaldi, 2015. "The Provision of Ratio Balance Forage Leaves Cassava
(Manihot utilissima) With Concentrate on the Goat to milk Production of Etawah
Crossbreed goat (PE)". Supervised by USMAN BUDI and
R. EDHY MIRWANDHONO.
The purpose of this study was to determine to milk production by feeding
forage cassava leaves and concentrate on a different balance. This approach is
expected to have a positive influence on the milk production of Etawah Cross
breed goat (PE). Research conducted in Etawah crossbreed farm at Kapas Street
Hamparan Perak Subdistrict, Klambir V Village, Deli serdang district. This study
carried out during the 3-month in June to October 2014. The experimental design
used in this study was a LSD (latin square design) 3x3. The treatment were
cassava leaves with concentrate ratio consist of 100% cassava leaves : 0%
concentrate (P0); 80% cassava leaves : 20% concentrate (P1) and 60% cassava
leaves : 40% concentrate (P2).The parameters analyzed are milk production, feed
consumption, feed convertion.
Results of analysis of variance showed that the balance of various forage
cassava leaves (Manihot utilissima) with the concentrate is significant effect
between treatments (P< 0.05) on milk production and feed convertion, and with
the concentrate is significant effect between treatmens (P<0,01) on consumption.
Based on the results of the study concluded that the treatment were cassava leaves
with concentrate ratio consist of 60% cassava leaves : 40% concentrate (P0) can
increase the milk production Etawah cross breed goat.57 HalamanSkripsi Sarjan
Evaluation of gridded datasets for terrestrial water budget assessment in the Upper Jhelum River Basin-South Asia
The study presents a comprehensive assessment of the key terrestrial water budget (TWB) components and their recent temporal trends using observed and gridded datasets across Upper Jhelum Basin (UJB) for the period of 2003–2014. Different gridded datasets were used for precipitation-P (APHRODITE, CHIRPS, PGMFD, ERA-5, and MSWEP), evapotranspiration-ET (MOD16A2, SSEBop, GLDAS-NOAH, TERRACLIMATE and DOLCE), Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) derived terrestrial water storage (TWS) and observed discharge (Q) measurements. Firstly, gridded P and ET datasets were assessed through detailed spatiotemporal analysis against reference datasets and considering their adequacy to close the TWB. The imbalance in TWB and associated uncertainties of each component were also computed to understand the potential of gridded datasets for water budget studies. Finally, TWB components were subjected to trend analysis to evaluate temporal trends and their statistical significance over the study period. Overall, ERA5-Pand DOLCE-ET relatively performed better and hence considered to be the most appropriate to present the hydrological spatiotemporal variability across UJB. The imbalance in water budget was mainly associated with higher uncertainties in P especially during wet periods. The results of temporal trend analysis showed a) insignificant mixed trends for annual P with increase and decrease in monsoon and winter P, respectively b) mixed yet statistically significant trends for ET in different parts of basin at annual and seasonal scale c) significant decreasing trends for TWS throughout the UJB in winter and annual scale d) increasing trends for Q in all months of the year except January and February. Despite the imbalance in water budget estimation due to large uncertainties in gridded P, ET, and TWS datasets, the study underlines the important information about TWB dynamics and their spatiotemporal variability over UJB which can be used as the knowledge base for further impact assessment studies
PERLINDUNGAN HAK PEMEGANG SAHAM MINORITAS DITINJAU DARI PRINSIP KEADILAN DALAM GOOD CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Pentingnya menjaga hak pemegang saham minoritas sebagai bagian internal
dari praktik bisnis yang sehat dan beretika dalam perusahaan. Good Corporate
Governance adalah sistem pengaturan perusahaan baik yang melibatkan proses,
hubungan instansi, dan partisipasi semua pihak terkait dalam perusahaan. Sistem
ini memungkinkan mereka untuk mengemukakan dan memperjuangkan
kepentingan mereka, menengahi perbedaan, serta menjalankan tugas dan kewajiban
mereka di perusahaan. Di dalam Good Corporate Governance terdapat prinsip�prinsip yang mengatur tindakan perusahaan, salah satunya adalah "Prinsip
Keadilan". Prinsip ini mewajibkan perlakuan yang adil dalam memenuhi hak-hak
para pemangku kepentingan yang timbul berdasarkan perjanjian dan peraturan yang
berlaku. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis perlindungan
hak pemegang saham minoritas dalam konteks Good Corporate Governance
dengan penekanan pada prinsip keadilan. Berkaca seperti kasus PT Blue Bird Taxi
antara pemegang saham minoritas dan mayoritas yang menghasilkan konflik
kepentingan di antara keduanya yang sering kali melemahkan posisi pemegang
saham minoritas dengan adanya perbuatan melanggar hukum dengan mengabaikan
tata kelola perusahaan yang baik. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah
penelitian yuridis normatif dengan menggunakan metode pendekatan perundang�undangan dan peraturan lainnya yang mengatur permasalahan yang dibahas. Bahan
hukum yang digunakan berupa bahan hukum primer, sekunder, tersier dengan
teknik penelusuran bahan hukum menggunakan studi pustaka dan menganalisis
bahan hukum tersebut dengan metode secara kualitatif dengan menggunakan model
interaktif. Undang-Undang Nomor 40 Tahun 2007 tentang Perseroan Terbatas
sebenarnya telah mengatur hak-hak pemegang saham minoritas, namun hak-hak
tersebut belum sepenuhnya memberikan perlindungan hukum. Penulis dengan ini
menganalisis dan menemukan hasil peraturan terkait perusahaan, lembaga regulator
dan pedoman umum korporat yang memperkuat perlindungan hukum bagi hak
pemegang saham minoritas dalam perusahaan. Oleh karena itu, hadirnya konsep
Good Corporate Governance diharapkan dapat menjadi pedoman bagi perusahaan
untuk meningkatkan kinerja dan memastikan prinsip keadilan antara pemegang
saham minoritas dan mayoritas sesuai dengan proporsi masing-masing.
