    Tujuan Penelitian Pekerjaan yang masih dilakukan secara manual menuntut kemampuan tulang dan otot. Aktivitas pemanenan kelapa sawit masih dilakukan secara manual dan berisiko untuk mengalami keluhan muskuloskeletal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara umur, masa kerja, postur kerja dan beban kerja mental dengan keluhan MSDs pada pemanen kelapa sawit di PT.Gersindo Minang Plantation, Kab.Pasaman Barat, Sumatera Barat. Metode Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan Februari-April 2017 dengan menggunakan desain studi cross sectional. Dari 165 populasi didapatkan sampel sebanyak 65 responden dengan teknik pengambilan simple random sampling. Postur kerja dianalisis dengan menggunakan metode Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA), keluhan muskuloskeletal dinilai dengan kuisioner Nordic Body Map, beban kerja mental dinilai dengan kuesioner NASA-TLX, umur dan masa kerja didaapatkan dari wawancara kepada responden. Hasil Hasil penelitian menunjukkan jumlah responden yang mengalami keluhan MSDs berat sebanyak 28 responden dan yang mengalami keluhan MSDs ringan sebanyak 37 responden. Hasil uji chi square menunjukkan bahwa umur (p-value:0.000), masa kerja (p-value:0.018), dan postur kerja (p-value:0.002) berhubungan dengan terjadinya keluhan MSDs. Sedangkan beban kerja mental ditemukan tidak berhubungan dengan terjadinya keluhan MSDs. Kesimpulan Variabel umur, masa kerja dan postur kerja berhubungan dengan terjadinya keluhan MSDs. Untuk mengurangi risiko terjadinya MSDs, perusahaan diharapkan melakukan pelatihan tekait postur kerja beresiko, mengatur waktu kerja dan melakukan relaksasi otot pada saat bekerja.

Oil palm harvesting was conducted manually and have some risks to cause Musculosceletal disorders (MSDs). This study was aimed to determine the relationship between age, working periode, working posture and mental work load with the occurence of MSDs complaints on oil palm harvesters in PT.Gersindo Minang Plantation district west pasaman, west sumatera province Method This research conduct from February until April 2017 using a design cross sectional study. The sample were 65 harvesters from 165 population with simple random sampling technique. Work postures were analyzed using Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) methods, musculoskeletal disorders assessed by Nordic Body Map questionnaire, mental workload assessed by NASA-TLX questionnaire, age and working periode obtained from interviews with respondents. Result The result showed 28 harvesters suffered severe MSDs and 37 harvesters suffered milds MSDs. Chi square test result showed that age (p-value:0.000), working period (p-value:0.018), working posture (p-value:0.002) were associated with MSDs complaints. Meanwhile the mental workload statistically unrelated with the MSDs complaints (p-value:1.00). Conclusion Age, working periode and working posture were related to MSDs complaints. To minimize the risk of MSDs complaints, the oil palm company expected to do training and education about working posture, manage time of work and the harvesters expected to stretch and rest the muscle during work.

    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

    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
