Perilaku Ibu Hamil dalam Pencegahan Malaria Berdasarkan Teori Health Belief Model
Full text linkThis study aims to determine the behavioral factors of pregnant women in preventing malaria based on the theory of the health belief model in the Working Area of the Sentani Health Center, Jayapura Regency, Papua Province. The method used is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. The results showed that perceptions about susceptibility, severity, and benefits could influence malaria prevention, and barriers and measures to prevent malaria become a mother\u27s consideration for malaria prevention behavior. In conclusion, perceptions about susceptibility, severity, benefits, obstacles, and prevention of malaria influence malaria prevention behavior.

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
Determinan yang Mempengaruhi Keikutsertaan Pasangan Suami Istri dalam Mengikuti Tes HIV Selama Masa Kehamilan
Full text linkThis study aims to determine whether employment, education and family income are related to the participation of married couples in taking HIV tests during pregnancy. The method used was a quantitative study with a cross sectional research design. The results of this study show that there are still many couples who do not test for HIV during pregnancy and husbands are the largest number of subjects who do not test for HIV. In conclusion, only educational characteristics are related to the wife\u27s participation in HIV testing during pregnancy

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
Effectiveness of Dance Pregnancy Modification on Improving Depression Levels in High-Risk Pregnant Women
Full text linkThis study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Pregnancy Dance modification on improving depression levels and serotonin hormone levels in high-risk pregnant women. The research design used was Quasi Experiment with the Nonequivalent Control Group Design approach. The number of samples in this study was 24 participants, which were divided into two groups: 12 samples of the intervention group and 12 samples of the control group. Based on the Wilcoxon test, the asymp. Sig <0.05 value indicates a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores, which indicates a positive effect of Pregnancy Dance in reducing depression levels in high-risk pregnant women. After the intervention, there was a greater decrease in depression scores in the Pregnancy Dance group compared to the control group. The control group, which received pregnancy exercise intervention, also experienced a decrease in depression scores with an average decrease of 7.25. However, the analysis showed that the asymp. Sig value 0.000 <0.05, with a greater average decrease in scores in the intervention group than in the control group. In conclusion, although both activities are effective in reducing depression levels, Pregnancy Dance proved to be superior, especially in addressing anxiety and emotional stress, thanks to its more prominent elements of relaxation, body expression and social support.
 
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
