IDENTIFIKASI FAKTOR MOTIVASI PADA ECOPRENEUR DALAM MEMULAI BISNIS: STUDI PADA BANK SAMPAH BERSINAR
Tingkat produksi sampah oleh masyarakat di Kabupaten Bandung cenderung tinggi, mencapai angka rata – rata produksi sebesar 1,58 liter/orang/hari melebihi angka rata-rata nasional yang berada pada kisaran 1,25 liter/orang/hari. Hal tersebut menimbulkan banyaknya tumpukan sampah, terlebih pada saat ini tingkat pelayanan sampah oleh dinas terkait hanya mampu mengangkut 16% dari keseluruhan sampah yang diproduksi oleh masyarakat. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, kemudian bermunculan pengusaha yang peduli terhadap lingkungan atau disebut Ecopreneur yang kemudian mendirikan usaha berbasis lingkungan; salah satunya adalah dengan mendirikan bank sampah yang pendiriannya terus mengalami peningkatan.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang memotivasi Ecopreneur dalam mendirikan bank sampah, dengan melakukan penilaian terhadap variabel Green Value, Gap in the Market, Making a Living, Being their own Boss, dan Passion pada Bank Sampah Bersinar.
Penelitian ini merupakan studi kasus menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif pada Bank Sampah Bersinar. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui in-depth-interview dengan format semi-terstruktur terhadap tokoh-tokoh yang terlibat dalam pendirian Bank Sampah Bersinar. Data sekunder yang berkaitan dengan tema penelitian digunakan untuk mendukung penelitian, antara lain jurnal ilmiah mengenai ecopreneurship, data dari instansi pemerintahan, serta berita dan artikel yang berkaitan dengan penelitian.
Berdasarkan hasil pengolahan data, dapat diketahui bahwa seluruh faktor motivasi ecopreneur dapat diidentifikasi dalam diri responden 1, responden 2, dan responden 3 meliputi faktor motivasi green value, gap in the market, making a living, being their own boss, dan juga passion. Namun terdapat faktor yang dominan dalam setiap diri responden dalam hal motivasi mendirikan Bank Sampah Bersinar. Responden 1 didominasi faktor gap in the market, responden 2 didominasi faktor green value, dan responden 3 didominasi oleh faktor passion.
Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, untuk lebih meningkatkan kontribusi dalam memainkan peran mengatasi kerusakan lingkungan maka para ecopreneur pendiri Bank Sampah Bersinar sebaiknya lebih meningkatkan minat masyarakat dengan menangkap peluang yang ada, serta menjalin kemitraan lebih lanjut untuk menanggulangi sampah yang belum bisa mereka kelola sendiri

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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
