Evaluasi Persiapan Pelaksanaan Program Sistem Administrasi Perkantoran Maya (Simaya) di Sekretariat Daerah Provinsi Sumatera Barat
Full text linkThe implementation of Virtual Office Administration System (SiMAYA) in Secretariat Office of West Sumatera Province still faced various obstacles, such as lack of regulation, limited of human resources, and so on. The purpose of this study was to determine the determinant factors in the implementation of SIMAYA program, and efforts made in overcoming the problem. This study was conducted through a qualitative research using descriptive method. The informants of this study were determined through purposive technique. The data of this study were collected through observation, interview, and documentation study. Then, the data were analyzed by interactive model analysis technique. The finding of this study indicated that (1) The implementation of Virtual Office Administration System (siMAYA) in West Sumatera Provincial Secretariat had not been effective; (2) There were still many inhibiting factors in the implementation of siMAYA program in West Sumatera Provincial Secretariat office, such as limited human resources, lack of hardware devices, unclear software usage, lack of data, and limited of LAN network. (3) Efforts made in overcoming these barriers include human resources training and completing the facilities and infrastructures
INHIBITED FACTORS IN MANAGEMENT GOVERNMENT FINANCE OF NAGARI: CASE STUDY IN NAGARI KAMANG HILIR, KAMANG MAGEK SUBDISTRICT, AGAM REGENCY
Full text linkThe purpose of this study was to determine the inhibiting factors in the management government finance of Nagari in 2018, especially in the Nagari Government Budget (APB Nagari) in Kamang Magek District, Agam Regency, West Sumatra Province, namely Nagari Kamang Hilir. This study uses qualitative methods with descriptive analysis. The technique of collecting data using the interview approach consisted of 8 informants (Section of Financial Development and Wealth of Nagari DPMN, Financial and Development Management Section of Nagari DPMN, Secretary of Sub-District Head, Guardian of Nagari, Secretary, Treasurer, Head of Planning, Head of Government, and Bamus Nagari), focus group discussion (FGD) consisted of 5 informants (Wali Nagari, Secretary, Bamus, KAN, Youth, and Wali Jorong), and documentation studies. The results showed that the inhibited factors in management government finance of Nagari are still not following Permendagri Number 113 of 2014. There are inhibited factors in management government finance of Nagari including less supportive human resources, low community self-help, public oversight is still lacking, community participation is still low, and there is a change in the budget for reporting accountability

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
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
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
