Science communication is seen as critical for the disciplines of ecology and conservation, where research products are often used to shape policy and decision making. Scientists are increasing their online media communication, via social media and news. Such media engagement has been thought to influence or predict traditional metrics of scholarship, such as citation rates. Here, we measure the association between citation rates and the Altmetric Attention Score—an indicator of the amount and reach of the attention an article has received—along with other forms of bibliometric performance (year published, journal impact factor, and article type). We found that Attention Score was positively correlated with citation rates. However, in recent years, we detected increasing media exposure did not relate to the equivalent citations as in earlier years; signalling a diminishing return on investment. Citations correlated with journal impact factors up to ∼13, but then plateaued, demonstrating that maximizing citations does not require publishing in the highest-impact journals. We conclude that ecology and conservation researchers can increase exposure of their research through social media engagement and, simultaneously, enhance their performance under traditional measures of scholarly activity.

ABSTRACT Scientists who use cohort generation (generation cohorts) to classify subjects by age group, strongly believe in differences in attitudes, behaviors and communication in each generation. Millennials in the age range of 23-39 (born 1980-1995) tend to be depicted as relying heavily on communication based on internet technology. This situation certainly causes significant communication changes, including when these millennials become entrepreneurs, inevitably they will rely on communication via online media. In 2018, several rows of Indonesian millennials entered the ranks of successful Asian entrepreneurs under the age of 30. This phenomenon certainly becomes interesting to study about how the use of online media by young entrepreneurs as a means of their communication with the public. This study aims to find out how the personal branding of millennial entrepreneurs is built with communication via online media. The personal branding study that is often used as a guideline is the Eight Laws of Personal Branding concept, which is a personal branding strategy that emphasizes the side; specialization, leadership, personality, distinctiveness, visibility, unity, persistence, and goodwill. This study uses the content analysis (content analysis) approach to 5 online media (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, LinkedIn and Website / blog) owned by 5 millennial entrepreneurs (Dian Pelangi, Fransisca Hadiwidjana, Talita Setyadi, Rorian Pratyaksa, and Stanislaus Tandelilin) within 1 year (1 January 2018 - 31 December 2018). The results of this study indicate that the effort to build personal branding on each of the online media owned, is only attached to the figure of Dian Pelangi, who is very active in using all lines of social media. While the other 4 subjects actually did not all actively utilize the social media / online media they had..Keywords:  online media communication, millennials, personal branding, millennial entrepreneurs, digital era.  ABSTRAK Ilmuwan yang menggunakan cohort generation (generasi kohort) untuk menggolongkan subyek berdasarkan kelompok umur, sangat mempercayai adanya perbedaan sikap, perilaku dan komunikasi pada tiap generasi. Generasi milenial dalam rentang usia 23-39 (lahir 1980-1995) cenderung digambarkan sangat mengandalkan komunikasi berbasis penggunaan teknologi internet. Situasi ini tentu menyebabkan perubahan komunikasi yang signifikan, termasuk ketika para milenial ini menjadi pengusaha, mau tidak mau mereka akan mengandalkan komunikasi via media online. Tahun 2018 lalu beberapa deretan pengusaha milenial Indonesia masuk dalam jajaran pengusaha sukses Asia di bawah usia 30 tahun. Fenomena ini tentu menjadi menarik untuk diteliti tentang bagaimana penggunaan media online para pengusaha muda ini sebagai sarana komunikasi mereka dengan publik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana personal branding para pengusaha milenial dibangun dengan komunikasi via media online. Kajian personal branding yang sering dijadikan pedoman adalah konsep Eight Laws of Personal Branding, yakni strategi personal branding yang menekankan pada sisi; spesialisasi, kepemimpinan, kepribadian, kekhasan, terlihat, Kesamaan antara yang terlihat dan tak terlihat, kegigihan dan itikad baik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan penelitian content analysis (analisis isi) atas 5 media online (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, LinkedIn dan Website/blog) yang dimiliki oleh 5 pengusaha milenial (Dian Pelangi, Fransisca Hadiwidjana, Talita Setyadi, Rorian Pratyaksa, dan Stanislaus Tandelilin) dalam kurun waktu 1 tahun (1 januari 2018 - 31 Desember 2018). Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa upaya membangun personal branding pada masing-masing media online yang dimiliki, hanya melekat pada sosok Dian Pelangi, yang sangat aktif menggunakan semua lini media sosialnya. Sementara ke 4 subyek lainnya justru tidak semuanya aktif memanfaatkan media sosial/ media online yang dimilikinya..Kata Kunci: komunikasi media online, milenial, personal branding, pengusaha milenial, era digital.

The Impact

The Swiss Armed Forces (SAF), as part of a democratic system, depends on legitimacy. Democracy, legitimacy and the public are closely connected. In the public sphere the SAF need to be visible; it is where they are controlled and legitimated by the citizens, as part of a deliberative discussion in which political decisions are communicatively negotiated. Considering this, the meaning of political communication, including the SAF’s communication, becomes obvious as it forms the most important basis for political legitimation processes. Social media provide a new way for the SAF to communicate and interact directly with the population. The SAF’s social media communication potentially brings it closer to the people and engages them in a dialogue. The SAF can become more transparent and social media communication may increase its reputation and legitimacy. To measure the effects of social media communication, a survey of the Swiss internet population was conducted. Based on this data, a structural equation model was defined, the effects of which substantiate the assumption that the SAF benefits from being on social media in terms of broadening its reach and increasing legitimacy values.

Objectives: The integrated interventional radiology (IR) residency has only been established relatively recently as compared to other specialties. Although some preliminary information is available based on survey data five, no comprehensive bibliometric analysis documenting the importance of the quantity and quality of research in applying to an integrated-IR program currently exists. As the first bibliometric analysis of matched IR residents, the data obtained from this study fills a gap in the literature. Materials and Methods: A list of matched residents from the 2018 integrated-IR match were identified by contacting program directors. The Scopus database was used to search for resident research information, including total publications, first-author publications, radiology-related publications, and h-indices. Each matriculating program was categorized into one of five tiers based on the average faculty Hirsch index (h-index). Results: Sixty-three programs and 117 matched residents were identified and reviewed on the Scopus database. For the 2018 cycle, 274 total publications were produced by matched applicants, with a mean of 2.34 ± 0.41 publication per matched applicant. The average h-index for matched applicants was 0.96 ± 0.13. On univariate analysis, the number of radiology-related publications, highest journal impact factor, and h-index were all associated with an increased likelihood of matching into a higher tier program (P < 0.05). Other research variables displayed no statistical significance. All applicants with PhDs matched into tier one programs. Conclusions: Research serves as an important element in successfully matching into an integrated-IR residency. h-index, number of radiology-related manuscripts, and highest journal impact factors are all positively associated with matching into a higher tier program.

This paper argues that the rise of the JIF is a result of the perceived value of quantification measures in modern society and the restructuring of capitalism. Two key implications of this acceptance are explored: an increase in global academic dependency and a lessening of autonomy in the scientific field.Cet article défend la thèse que la montée du FIRS est le résultat de la valeur perçue des mesures de quantification de la société moderne et de la restructuration du capitalisme. Seront explorées deux conséquences importantes de cette acceptation : une augmentation de la dépendance globale du milieu universitaire et une perte d'autonomie du milieu de la science.

Agriculture produces processed product which is perishable, so that the agricultural product should be distributed immediately. Processed product can be promoted to attract consumers to buy the product. One of the media that can be used to promote processed agricultural product is social media. Social media is needed to ease the marketing activity on the product. Social media is viral and can be delivered directly and personally to the consumer. Indicators are used to know the effectiveness of the social media as promotion media with AIDA concept. The results showed that promotion through Instagram has not been effective in the stages of attention (attention), interest (interest), desire (desire), and action (action). This study also explains that there is a relationship between the characteristics of gender followers and the level of social media exposure to the frequency of messages. In addition, there is also a relationship between the frequency of message feedback, message attractiveness, and intelligence in delivering messages with the interest stage.
