Effect of Bank Expansion on Performance of Shwe Bank ( Maung Maung Ye Win Khaing, 2023)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the performance of Shwe Bank and to
investigate the impact that the expansion of the bank had on the performance of Shwe
Bank. In order to accomplish these goals, an analysis was carried out in February 2023
using the replies provided by 68 individuals in Shwe Bank who filled out standardized
questionnaires. These individuals held positions ranging from Manager to CEO. The
aspects of financial service, bank performance, geographical location, and pricing are
taken into consideration in this research. According to the findings of an investigation that
involved multiple regressions, the three factors of financial service, bank performance, and
costs have a substantial impact on bank performance. According to the findings of this
research, locational considerations do not affect bank performance. The performance of
banks contributes, among other things, to the growth of business organizations and the
even distribution of economic activity in Myanmar
A Study on Chellenges of Oilseed Crops Production in Rural Area of Yenangyaung Township ( Ye Win Naing, 2024)
This study analyzes the profitability of oilseed crops, the sources of
technologies and market information, access to improved technologies and market, and
the sales pattern of oilseed, and examines the constraints in cultivation in oilseed crops,
and ways forwards to improving production and productivity of oilseeds of oilseed in
the study area. A total of 152 oilseed crops farmers are interviewed and selected by
using purposive random sampling method with structured questionnaires in
Yenangyaung Township, Magway Region in 2024. Descriptive method is used in this
study. It is found that oilseed crops farmers can earn more profit by getting information
access, sufficient labor in cultivating, enough information access, getting market
access, low transportation cost. The respondents also perceive that they have
technological constraints, and constraints about agro-climate factors, economic factors,
post-harvest, marketing and value-addition. It is suggested that the ways forwards to
improving HYV seeds, applying chemical fertilizer after testing the soil quality, using
modern farm related equipment like combined harvester, and arranging the workshop
on oilseeds by the Agricultural Departmen
A Study on Mangrove Forest Conservation and Livelihood of Local People in Ayeyarwady Region (Case Study: Bogalay Township) (Aung Ye Win, 2023)
This thesis is mainly focusing on mangrove forest conservation and livielihood of local people in Ayeyarwaddy Region. The objective of the study is to examine the local people’s livelihood concerned with mangrove forest and mangrove forest conservation in Ayeyarwaddy by using descriptive method. The research finding shows that successful mangrove forest management and conservation activities directly relate to the people's livelihood system. The local people in study areas are still highly dependent on mangrove forest products as firewood for daily cooking and also for construction. The mangrove forest management and conservation should be implement with the government organization, INGOs and NGOs and local community to fulfill the local people basic need as well as sustainable mangrove forest management. The community forestry enterprise is a new approach for mangrove forest management and conservation
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
