STUDI LAPANGAN DAMPAK EKOLOGI: PERAN DAN KONTRIBUSINYA TERHADAP PENGEMBANGAN KUALITAS MODEL PENDIDIKAN BERDASARKAN PARADIGMA PENELITIAN AbstrakMengembangkan model pendidikan yang baik dan dinamis dalam prosesnya, seharusnya dapat meningkatkan kualitas induvidu maupun kelompok mahasiswa atau peserta didik di perguruan tinggi (PT), agar dapat menyesuaikan diri terhadap dinamika perubahan zaman, sehingga studi lapang salah satu langkah yang perlu mendapat perhatian, dimana secara tidak langsung kegiatan ini mampu meningkatkan kualitas (SDM) dalam rangka menghadapi permasalahan dimasa mendatang yang semakin kompleks, disamping sebagai modal utama dalam mempersiapkan SDM yang berkualitas, baik sebagai pendidik (guru) maupun seorang peneliti yang professional dan kompeten dalam bidangnya. Tujuan dari kegiatan studi lapang tersebut, masih dihadapkan dengan minimnya SDM, sehingga tidak mudah untuk mengimplementasikannya secara dinamis dan berkelanjutan, sehingga tujuan dari penelitian ini, akan mengeksplore atau mengkaji lebih detail tentang peran dan kontribusi studi lapang di kalangan PT, yang tentunya membutuhkan proses pembelajaran yang lebih baik, dalam membentuk kualitas SDM yang berkualitas. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini, lebih melihat pada dinamika persepsi dan interpretasi mahasiswa, yang berkaitan dengan pengalamannya selama di lapang, dan sejauh mana keberhasilan yang diperoleh atau dicapainya, setelah melakukan studi lapang yang berupa produk ilmiah, seperti naskah ilmiah, baik berupa bentuk laporan penelitian maupun jurnal, kemudian proses diskusi panel di dalam kelas. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metode studi lapang salah satu kegiatan yang tidak mudah dilakukan, ketika menyusun sebuah laporan yang ilmiah, hal ini dapat dilihat dari aspek lemahnya argumentasi ilmiah yang dibangun, sehingga permasalahan ini, menjadi memberi gambarkan kepada semua pihak, bahwa model pendidikan ini perlu di ubah, dengan memodifikasi sebuah kurikulum yang lebih dinamis, dan tentunya juga disesuaikan dengan perkembangan zaman. AbstractDeveloping quality of education model in learning process was ought to increase skills of both individual and group of students in order to pave their readiness for today’s competitive era. Field study is an approach in learning that may develop to increase the quality of student, particularly in confronting with real life problems. This research was aimed to study the role and contribution of the field study to increase the quality of students. Using students’ perception and interpretations on the study field learning approach, this study tried to answers queries on the extent of study field approach for their learning success. Results revealed that the current field study approach was one of difficult approaches to be implemented in learning. During report development, for example, it was found that there are writing skills that need to be developed. It is suggested from this study, therefore, that field study approach needs to be more dynamic and its curriculum needs to be adjusted with the current development.

AbstractThe Concealed Information Test (CIT) enables the detection of certain (e.g., crime-relevant or personal) information, even if participants aim to conceal their knowledge. The current preregistered study investigated whether previously observed impairing effects of alcohol intoxication on participants’ performance in a reaction time CIT (RT CIT) field study also translate to a laboratory environment. In contrast to the previous study of Suchotzki and Gamer (Sci Rep 8:7825, 2018) in which alcohol consumption was voluntary and self-administered, the current study used a randomized assignment of participants to either an alcohol group (n = 88; receiving a drink with 3 cl alcohol) or a sober control group (n = 89; receiving a drink with just some alcohol drops to hide group assignment). After drink administration, participants completed an RT CIT, in which they were instructed to hide knowledge of their own identity. Blood alcohol concentration (BAC) was estimated via breath alcohol ratio. In contrast to the previous field study, results revealed no differences in CIT-performance between intoxicated and sober participants. Aside from questioning the robustness of the result of the previous field study, our results also point to a number of interesting theoretical explanations for the discrepancy between both results, which are elaborated in the discussion.

ABSTRAKTujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mendeskripsikan implementasi pembelajaraan IPA dalam membentuk karakter religius dan mandiri siswa di SD/MI. Latar belakang masalah penelitian ini dikarenakan degredasi moral karakter bangsa yang mengakibatkan hilangnya karakter bangsa ditandai dengan peningkaatan sikap anomali dan anarkisme di lingkungan masyarakat sehingga perlu adanya penguatan karakter melalui pendidikan di sekolah terlebih lagi dalam proses pembelajaran. Metode dalam penelitian ini berupa kualitatif desktiptif dengan jenis pendekatan studi lapangan. Penelitian dilakukan di kelas V diambil dari dua sekolah yaitu SDN Kartika Sejahtera 01 sebanyak 30 siswa, dan MIS Al Madani sebanyak 30 siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran IPA dapat membentuk karakter religius dan mandiri secara teori maupun praktik. Dengan berjalannya program sekolah berbasis karakter ternyata juga dapat dijadikan penguatan terhadap pembentukan karakter religius dan mandiri siswa.Kata Kunci: Pembentukan karakter, religius, mandiri, ilmu pengetahuan alamABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to describe the implementation of science learning in building religious and independent character of student in SD/MI. The background of this research problem because the moral degradation of the nation’s character which is marked by an increase in anomalous and anarchic attitudes in the community so that there is a need of character strengthening through education in schools, especially in the learning process. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative with a field study approach. The research was conducted in class V which was taken from two schools, namely SDN Kartika Sejahtera 01 with 30 students and MIS Al Madani with 30 students. The result showed that science learning can form a religious and independent character in theory and practice. By running the chacacter-based school program, it can also be used as a reinforcement for the formation of students’ religious and independent character.Keywords: Character building, religious, independent, science

Purpose This study aims to introduce the duration of uniqueness, an important dimension of unique products. It studies how choices between products with long versus short duration of uniqueness are influenced by the interaction between pressure and consumers’ need for uniqueness (NFU). Design/methodology/approach This research uses a multi-method study approach. A pilot field-study tested the novelty and importance of the research by asking retail professionals to predict the choice of a hypothetical consumer. A retrospective study assessed the importance of duration of uniqueness in unique product choices, by asking consumers about a real and recent unique product purchase. Four additional experimental studies directly tested hypotheses by manipulating pressure and by measuring or manipulating uniqueness motivations. Findings The pilot field-study showed the novelty and relevance of this research for professionals. Study 1 revealed that, retrospectively, uniqueness duration was considered important for the choice of unique products, by high-NFU consumers under pressure. Studies 2 and 3 demonstrated that pressure increases the tendency of high-NFU, but not low-NFU, consumers to choose products with long over short uniqueness duration. Study 4 provided initial evidence for the process behind the effect. Study 5 showed that considerations of uniqueness duration when choosing mediated the effects. Research limitations/implications The results of the pilot field-study and retrospective study might be affected by recall bias or lay theories. The findings need to be replicated with other sources of pressure and uniqueness. This calls for further research. Practical implications Results are important for companies marketing unique products and they suggest that pressure-based marketing appeals can be used strategically to increase sales of products with long uniqueness duration but decrease sales of products with short uniqueness duration. Although the research provides these guidelines, managers should consider the ethical implications of pressure strategies. Originality/value This is the first attempt to empirically investigate the duration of uniqueness. Although extant research has examined choices between products with different degrees of uniqueness, this research studies choice of products with similar degrees of uniqueness, but different uniqueness duration. Thus, this research adds to the scarce literature studying the duration of symbolic benefits. Moreover, although pressure and NFU frequently co-exist in uniqueness consumption settings, this study is the first to study their joint effects.

While empirical researchers in management accounting frequently address overlapping research issues using a variety of methods, there is little evidence of productive dialogue addressing the uncertainties and ambiguities raised within each stream of research. For example, survey researchers frequently call for deeper field-based insights into conflicting or ambiguous findings. Case study researchers convey rich organizational stories of management accounting in context. However, these field-based findings are rarely used to resolve the ambiguity in construct definition, measurement, and inter-relationships that plague our empirical research bases. In this paper we seek to regenerate interest in a method that has been implemented in the past to promote productive field-based dialogue on issues related to complex constructs and their interrelationships. The method is best illustrated by the cross-sectional field study approach adopted by Merchant and Manzoni (1989) to study budget target achievability. By considering the Merchant and Manzoni (1989) study as well as two other examples (Bruns and McKinnon 1993; Abernethy and Lillis 1995) we identify the range of questions suited to this method and how the method contributes significant insights to the management accounting literature. We also articulate the design attributes of cross-sectional field studies by explicitly linking the rationale for these studies with the complexity of the phenomenon under study, sampling logic, instrument design, and data analysis protocols. The insights produced from the relatively few published studies using a cross-sectional field study method suggest that opportunities for the application of this method may be underexploited.
