Pengaruh Faktor Budaya, Sosial, Pribadi dan Psikologis terhadap Keputusan Pembelian Produk Mobil Toyota Avanza di Surabaya

Toyota merupakan salah satu brand otomotif terkuat di Indonesia yang ditunjukkan dari tingginya pangsa pasar brand ini di Indonesia. Pada tahun 2018 terjadi penurunan penjualan yang signifikan pada salah satu jenis mobil brand Toyota yaitu untuk unit Avanza. Penurunan penjualan dapat disebabkan juga dari keputusan pembelian konsumen Toyota Avanza. Peneli- tian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti pengaruh dari faktor budaya, sosial, pribadi, dan psikologis terhadap keputu- san pembelian. Penelitian dilakukan terhadap 100 res- ponden, dengan analisis regresi linier berganda. Hasil pe- nelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor budaya, pribadi, dan psikologis memiliki pengaruh positif signifikan terhadap keputusan pembelian, sedangkan faktor sosial tidak ber- pengaruh terhadap keputusan pembelian

The Six Sigma Approach for the Development of Accounting Information System Performance

The study investigates six sigma approach in manufacturing companies to prove its influence on the development of accounting information systems performance. Total of 80 respondent data from processed questionnaire consist of low management (64%), middle management (38%) and top management (7%). Statistically significant were found for application six sigma and development of accounting information systems performance. The result shows six sigma has significant effect to accounting information system performance. The findings show that companies implement six sigma at high altitudes. Six sigma has criteria such as support and commitment from top management, organizational culture, customer focus, and training. Criteria for support and commitment from top management and organizational culture are not proven to significantly influence the development of accounting information system performance

Equivalence of N-norms on the Space of P-summable Sequences

We study the relation between two known n-norms on lp, the space ofp-summable sequences. One n-norm is derived from GÄahler's formula (1969), whilethe other is due to Gunawan (2001). We show in particular that the convergence inone n-norm implies that in the other. The key is to show that the convergence ineach of these n-norms is equivalent to that in the usual norm on lp.DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.22342/jims.16.1.27.1-

Comparison Between Propolis and Celecoxib as Anti-inflammatory Agent in Rat with Knee Synovitis

Introduction. Synovitis is an inflammation occurs in a joint marked by an increase in macrophage numbers in synovium resulting in cartilago and bone destruction by production of fibroblasts. Administration of non-steroid anti inflammation drug (NSAID) in management of arthritis and synovitis has its own complications, including gastrointestinal and bleeding disorder. Propolis, a natural bee product, is recognized as one of traditional pain killers at knee joint pain containing flavonoid and caffeic acid phenolic esters (CAPE). Several studies show its anti-inflammation effect, but its effect compared to other NSAID is still unknown. Therefore the aim of the study is to compare Propolis and celecoxib anti-inflammation effect in rat with knee joint synovitis. Materials and Methods. In this experimental study, Wistar strain rats were used. They were divided into three groups. Each group were given peptidoglycan only, peptidoglycan followed by Propolis, and peptidoglycan followed by celecoxib. Scoring based on number of macrophages and synovitis degree were evaluated by immunohistochemistry CD 68 and HE staining. It was evaluated in day 1, 3, and 14. Those scores were collected and analyzed using ANOVA. Results. Increasing number of macrophages and synovitis degree for all groups occur on day 3 and continuously decreasing until day 14. There is a significant difference in number of macrophages between grup 1 and the other two groups on day 3 (p<0.05). It shows that there is an anti-inflammation effect of both propolis and celecoxib. On day 3 and 14, the number of macrophages in grup 2 were five times lower than grup 3. (p<0.05) Conclusions. Propolis anti-inflammation effect shows 4-5 folds stronger than celecoxib in knee joint synovitis

Pengaruh Penerapan Enterprise Resource Planning terhadap Kinerja Perusahaan Manufaktur dengan Firm Size sebagai Variabel Moderasi

This  study  aims  to  examine  the  effect  of  enterprise  resource  planning  implementation  on  the  performance  ofmanufacturing companies moderated by the size of companies listed on the IDX period 2013-2015. Company size isseen  through  sales  and  total  assets.  Samples  were  taken  by  using  purposive  sampling  and  meeting  the  samplecriteria.  The  analysis  technique  used  in  this  research  is  multiple  regression  analysis.  The  results  show  that  theimplementation  of  enterprise  resource  planning  significantly  affects  the  company\u27s  performance  is  reinforced  byhigh sales level and also affect the company\u27s performance significantly reinforced by a large asset. The high salesand  total  assets  can  improve  the  performance  of  companies  implementing  ERP.  Both  of  these  factors  have  asignificant  influence.  The  results  of  this  study  are  expected  to  add  to  the  research  literature  on  the  factors  thatstrengthen the performance of manufacturing companies that implement ERP. Future research can change the size of the company viewed from the income or the number of employees

On B-orthogonality in 2-normed Spaces

In this note we discuss the concept of b-orthogonality in 2-normedspaces. We observe in particular that this denition of orthogonality is too loose sothat every two linearly independent vectors are b-orthogonal.DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.22342/jims.16.2.36.127-13
