Accounting Regression of data panel
Companies with high levels of environmental destruction risk in Indonesia are forestry holders of HPHHPHTI, plantation and mining companies that deals
with the environment directly where the resource is taken from the nature. The
companies’ behavior on environment is controlled by Socio Economic
Accounting SEA to overcome the impact of external diseconomy or social cost inflicted by company. The accountancy responsibility is approached by
disclosure, environmental performance and economic performance of the companies. The purpose of the research is to examine the impact of
environmental disclosure and environmental performance to economic performance. Population in this research is agroindustry companies which are
listed in the Indonesia stock exchange and follow the PROPER during the period of 2010-2014. The processing of data is using data regression panel
analysis. The result of this research indicates that environmental performance and environmental disclosure are not giving positive significant effect on
economic performance in agroindustry companies which are listed in the Indonesia stock exchange.

PENDAHULUAN
Dalam era industrialisasi ini, perusahaan dianggap sebagai lembaga yang dapat memberikan
banyak keuntungan bagi masyarakat, di mana menurut pendekatan teori akuntansi tradisional yang dijelaskan
oleh Henny dan Murtanto dalam Miranti, 2009 perusahaan harus memaksimalkan labanya agar dapat
memberikan sumbangan yang maksimum kepada masyarakat. Keuntungan yang diberikan perusahaan
bagi masyarakat antara lain adalah perusahaan menyediakan
lapangan kerja,
perusahaan menyediakan barang yang dibutuhkan masyarakat
untuk dikonsumsi, perusahaan membayar pajak pada pemerintah serta memberikan sumbangan. Hal tersebut
yang membuat perusahaan mendapatkan kekuatan untuk beroperasi dan menggunakan sumber daya yang
dibutuhkan. Dalam perannya meningkatkan pertumbuhan
ekonomi, perusahaan perlu memperhatikan kinerja ekonominya. Perusahaan membutuhkan perencanaan
yang akurat dan realistis yang sesuai dengan kondisi perusahaan, sehingga dari perencanaan tersebut dapat
diprediksi kinerja ekonominya. Kinerja ekonomi perusahaan merupakan kinerja perusahaan secara
relatif berubah-berubah dari tahun ke tahun dalam suatu kelompok industri perusahaan yang bergerak
dalam bidang yang sama yang ditandai dengan besarnya
return
tahunan perusahaan tersebut Almilia dan Wijayanto, 2007.
Walhi Wahana
Lingkungan Hidup
Indonesia menyebutkan bahwa aktor perusak lingungan hidup yang utama di Indonesia adalah
perusahaan dan pemerintah. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari Gambar 1. yang memperlihatkan besarnya persentase
peran aktor tersebut dalam merusak lingkungan.
Gambar 1. Diagram Aktor Perusak Pencemar Lingkungan Hidup Tahun 2013 sumber: Saturi, 2014 Dari gambar tersebut tampak perusahaan
ikut andil 31 dalam merusak lingkungan, diikuti dengan perusahaan dan pemerintah yang berperan
23 dalam merusakmencemari lingkungan. Dari sini terlihat bahwa hubungan perusahaan dengan
lingkungannya bersifat
non-reciprocal
yang artinya transaksi itu tidak menimbulkan prestasi timbal-balik
dari pihak yang berhubungan. Indonesia sebagai negara kepulauan terbesar
di dunia yang memiliki segala kekayaan alam dan sumber daya manusia yang dimiliki merupakan
negara yang berpotensi besar dan sangat penting di kawasan Asia pada khususnya dan dunia pada
umumnya.
Data Kementerian
Kehutanan menyebutkan dari sekitar 130 juta hektar hutan yang

Anonim 2014 dalam http:www.wwf.or.id
tersisa di Indonesia, 42 juta hektar diantaranya sudah habis ditebang.

Karena besarnya dampak buruk yang disumbangkan perusahaan kepada masyarakat
beserta lingkungan hidup di sekitarnya, maka perlu adanya kontrol agar
external diseconomy
atau
social cost
yang ditimbulkannya tidak semakin besar. Kontrol tersebut berupa ilmu akuntansi yang
mencatat, mengukur, melaporkan segala bentuk
externalities
yang dikenal dengan
Socio Economic Accounting
SEA Harahap, 2002 dengan tiga aspek persoalan penting yaitu: keberlanjutan aspek
ekonomi, lingkungan dan kinerja sosial Ja’far dan Arifah, 2006 dalam Handayani, 2010.
Penelitian empiris mengenai hubungan antara
environmental performance,
economic
257
performance
dan
environmental disclosure
secara umum telah mempertimbangkan kekuatan hubungan
diantara variabel-variabel
tersebut. Penelitian
Bragdon dan Marlin 1972, Spicer 1978, Freedman dan Jaggi 1992 dan Ignatius Bondan Suratno,
Darsono, Siti Mutmainah 2006 dalam Almilia dan Wijayanto 2007 menemukan hubungan positif
signifikan antara e
conomic performance
dengan e
nvironmental performance
. Penelitian Al Tuwaijri, SA., Christensen,
T.E. dan Hughes II, K.E. 2004 meneliti tentang hubungan
antara e
nvironmental performance,
environmental disclosure
dan
economic performance
. Hasil penelitiannya menunjukkan bahwa e
nvironmental performance, environmental disclosure
dan
economic performance
secara statistik signifikan, namun hanya hubungan
economic performance
dengan e
nvironmental performance
yang mempunyai interelasi potensial. Anggraini 2008 dalam Handayani 2010 meneliti tentang
environmental disclosure
,
environmental performance
dan
return saham
yang mewakili
economic performance
. Hasil
penelitiannya menunjuk-kan bahwa
environmental performance
tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap
environmental disclosure
, tetapi berpengaruh signifikan terhadap
return saham
. Sedangkan
environmental disclosure
mempunyai pengaruh positif signifikan terhadap
return saham.
Hasil penelitian-penelitian
sebelumnya mengenai hubungan
environmental disclosure, environmental
performance
dan
economic performance
yang masih
kontradiktif dan
menunjukkan hasil yang berbeda-beda menarik untuk dilakukan kajian kembali khususnya mengenai
environmental disclosure
, e
nvironmental performance
dan
economic performance
. Tujuan
dalam kajian ini adalah menguji pengaruh antara
economic performance
terhadap
environmental disclosure
dan
environmental performance.
KERANGKA TEORI KERANGKA KONSEP Dalam operasionalnya, perusahaan memiliki
dampak secara positif dan negatif. Dampak positif dengan adanya perusahaan antara lain memberikan
lapangan kerja,
menyediakan barangjasa,
pemasukan jasa dan memberikan sumbangan pada masyarakat. Selain adanya dampak positif tersebut,
adanya perusahaan juga menyumbang dampak negatif yaitu menghasilkan limbah padat dan cair
serta polusi air dan udara. Limbah padat dan cair ini hendaknya diolah terlebih dahulu sebelum dilepas ke
lingkungan. Limbah padat dan cair yang tidak menjalani proses pengolahan penetralan akan
membentuk lingkungan yang rusaktercemar. Hal ini membentuk
hubungan
non-reciprocal
antara perusahaan dengan lingkungan yang maksudnya
tidak terdapat hubungan timbal balik antara keduanya, hanya perusahaan yang membutuhkan
lingkungan sedangkan
lingkungan tidak
membutuhkan perusahaan. Hubungan
non-reciprocal
ini kemudian
dipelajari dengan teori
Socio Economic Accounting
SEA yang didalamnya membahas hubungan antara pengungkapan, kinerja lingkungan dan kinerja
ekonomi perusahaan. Berdasarkan teori SEA inilah terbentuk dugaan bahwa terdapat pengaruh yang
signifikan positif antara
environmental performance
dan
environmental disclosure
terhadap
economic performance
perusahaan.

METODE PENELITIAN Objek
dalam penelitian
ini adalah
environmental performance,
environmental disclosure
dan pengaruhnya terhadap
economic performance
pada perusahaan sektor Agroindustri yang terdaftar dalam Bursa Efek Indonesia dan
mengikuti PROPER serta mengeluarkan laporan tahunannya pada tahun 2010-2014.
Desain yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif. Data dan informasi dalam
penelitian ini berupa data sekunder dan data primer. Teknik
pengambilan sampel
dipilih dengan
menggunakan teknik sensus dan diperoleh 16 perusahaan.
Teknik pengumpulan
data yang
digunakan dalam penelitian adalah dengan studi pustaka.
Rancangan analisis data menggunakan analisis deskriptif
untuk menjelaskan
karakteristik perusahaan dalam setiap variabel. Analisis regresi
data panel dengan bantuan Eviews7 berguna untuk melihat dampak ekonomis yang tidak terpisahkan
antar setiap individu dalam beberapa periode
cross section
dan
time series
. Dengan model regresi data panel:
Y = α +
it + it + e
Keterangan: Y
= Variabel

α = Konstanta
= Variabel independen 1
Environmental Performance
= Variabel independen 2

b
…
= Koefisien regresi masing-masing variabel independen
e = Error term t = Waktu
i = Perusahaan
Pemilihan model regresi data panel dilakukan untuk mendapatkan model yang tepat untuk
penelitian ini. Model dengan pengaruh individu untuk penaksirannya dapat dilakukan melalui dua
pendekatan, yaitu pendekatan
fixed effect
dan
259
random effect
. Untuk memilih model tersebut dilakukan dengan uji Hausman. Pengujian uji
Hausman dilakukan dengan hipotesis berikut: : Random Effect RE Model
: Fixed Effect FE Model Terhadap analisis regresi data panel ini
dilakukan pengujian asumsi klasik uji autokorelasi, multikolinieritas dan heteroskedastisitas. Selain itu,
terdapat uji kelayakan model koefisien determinasi dan uji F dan Uji Hipotesis menggunakan uji t.
Hipotesis: H1 :
Environmental performance
berpengaruh signifikan
positif terhadap
economic performance
H2 :
Environmental disclosure
berpengaruh signifikan
positif terhadap
economic performance
H3 :
Environmental performance
dan e
nvironmental disclosure
berpengaruh signifikan
positif terhadap
economic performance
HASIL DAN PEMBAHASAN
Hasil pengolahan data statistik deskriptif, untuk
environmental performance
pada umumnya perusahaan sampel meraih peringkat biru dalam
PROPER dan peringkat tertinggi diduduki oleh perusahaan dengan kode INRU yang meraih
peringkat hijau selama 4 tahun berturut-turut dari 2010-2013.
Environmental disclosure
poin tertinggi 18 diperoleh perusahaan dengan kode UNSP dan
poin pengungkapan terendah diperoleh perusahaan dengan kode TBLA. Hal yang paling banyak
diungkapkan perusahaan dalam laporan tahunannya adalah mengenai inisiatif untuk mengurangi dampak
buruk pada lingkungan akibat oleh produk dan jasa daftar ceklis GRI poin ke 26.
Economic performance
perusahaan dengan kode FASW memiliki nilai ROE -16,00 di tahun 2013 dan pada
tahun yang sama, perusahaan dengan kode TIRT memiliki nilai ROE sebesar 78,4 yang merupakan
ROE tertinggi di antara 16 perusahaan tersebut selama periode 2011-2014.
Pemilihan Model Regresi Data Panel
Nilai probabilitas Prob. cross-section random sebesar 0,5813 yang nilainya 0,05 sehingga
dapat disimpulkan bahwa model RE lebih tepat dibandingkan dengan model FE untuk kajian ini. Hal
ini sebenarnnya sudah ditunjukkan oleh karakter data panel yang memiliki jumlah waktu 2010-2014 lebih
kecil dibandingkan dengan jumlah entitas 16 perusahaan yang oleh beberapa ahli ekonometrika
disarankan menggunakan metode
random effect
.
Uji Asumsi Klasik 1.
Uji Autokorelasi
Uji autokorelasi bertujuan untuk menguji apakah dalam suatu model regresi linear ada korelasi
antara kesalahan pengganggu periode t dengan kesalahan pengganggu pada periode t-1 periode
sebelumnya. Dilihat melalui nilai Durbin-Watson. Jika nilai Durbin-Watson DW terletak antara batas
atas atau
upper bound
du dan 4-du, maka koefisien autokorelasi sama dengan nol, dengan kata
lain tidak ada autokorelasi. Tabel 12. Data pengujian autokorelasi
Nilai dU N=64
K=2 Nilai
Durbin Watson
4-dU Keterangan
1,65 1,959
2,34 Tidak ada
autokorelasi Berdasarkan tabel tersebut terlihat pada data
penelitian ini tidak terjadi masalah autokorelasi.
2. Multikolinieritas
Uji multikolinearitas bertujuan untuk menguji apakah model regresi ditemukan adanya korelasi
antara variabel independen. Untuk menguji masalah multikolinearitas dapat melihat matriks korelasi dari
variabel bebas, jika terjadi koefisien korelasi lebih dari 0,80 maka terdapat multikolinearitas. Nilai
koefisien korelasinya antar variabel independen dibawah 0,80 yaitu 0,0288. Dengan demikian data
dalam
penelitian ini
tidak terjadi
masalah multikolinearitas.
3. Heteroskedastisitas
Model RE sudah menggunakan
Generalize Least Square
GLS yang merupakan salah satu teknik penyembuhan regresi. Karena penelitian ini
menggunakan metode
Random Effect
maka tidak perlu lagi di uji heteroskedastisitas.
Uji Kelayakan Model 1. Uji F
Pengujian secara simultan dilihat melalui nilai Uji F yang terdapat pada tabel berikut:
Tabel 14. Hasil Uji Simultan Uji F F-statistic
1.342596 ProbF-statistic
0.268774 Berdasarkan Tabel 14. didapatkan nilai p-
value alpha 0,05 yaitu 0,268 0,05 sehingga terima Ho yang dapat disimpulkan bahwa semua variabel
independen secara simultan tidak berpengaruh terhadap variabel dependen.
260
2. Koefisien Determinasi R-square
Koefisien determinasi
digunakan untuk
mengukur sejauh mana besar keragaman variabel tak bebas dapat dijelaskan oleh variabel bebas.
Koefisisen determinasi dilihat dari nilai . Nilai
yang didapatkan dari memodelkan regresi panel dengan pendekatan
Random Effect Model
REM pada penelitian ini adalah sebesar 0.042164. Hal ini
menunjukkan bahwa keragaman nilai
Economic Performance
hanya dapat
dijelaskan oleh
Environmental disclosure
dan Environmental
Performance
sebesar 4,22, selebihnya dijelaskan oleh variabel lain yang tidak diteliti dalam penelitian
ini.
Uji Hipotesis
Pengujian secara parsial dilihat dari nilai uji t yang terdapat pada tabel berikut:
Tabel 15. Hasil uji t
Variable Coefficient Std. Error t-Statistic
Prob. ED
-0.685289 0.523109 -1.310031 0.1951

0.3337 C
30.72347 12.05030 2.549601 0.0133
Apabila nilai Prob. lebih kecil daripada 0,05, maka hipotesisnya diterima yang artinya variabel
independen tersebut berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap
variabel dependennya
dan begitu
sebaliknya. Variabel
environmental disclosure
mempunyai nilai koefisien -0,685 yang berarti variabel
environmental disclosure
berpengaruh negatif terhadap
economic performance
. Nilai sig t sebesar 0,1951 lebih besar dari α 5 sehingga
hipotesis yang menyatakan
environmental disclosure
berpengaruh signifikan positif terhadap
economic performance
, ditolak. Variabel
environmental performance
mempunyai nilai koefisien -4,664 yang berarti variabel
environmental performance
berpengaruh negatif terhadap
economic performance
. Nilai sig t sebesar 0,333 lebih besar dari α 5 sehingga
hipotesis yang
menyatakan
environmental performance
berpengaruh signifikan positif terhadap
economic performance
, ditolak.
PEMBAHASAN 1. Hipotesis 1 :
Environmental performance
berpengaruh signifikan
positif terhadap
economic performance
Berdasarkan hasil analisis dengan regresi data panel, menunjukkan bahwa variabel
environmental performance
tidak berpengaruh signifikan positif terhadap variabel
economic performance
dari perusahaan
agroindustri. Perilaku
variabel
environmental performance
pada perusahaan
agroindustri ternyata bukan salah satu faktor yang menentukan besarnya
return on equity
pada perusahaan. Sebagai contoh, perusahaan dengan
kode TIRT pada tahun 2012 mendapatkan peringkat PROPER merah, namun ROE perusahaan pada tahun
2013 dapat tetap tinggi mencapai 78,4. Sebaliknya, perusahaan dengan kode KBRI mendapatkan
peringkat biru pada PROPER tahun 2010 mempunyai
economic performance
ROE yang negatif di tahun 2011 yaitu -2.88. Hal tersebut diduga karena
kondisi yang terjadi di Indonesia sebagai negara berkembang berbeda dengan yang terjadi di beberapa
negara lain, terutama negara maju terkait perilaku investor di Indonesia.
Hubungan yang tidak signifikan positif antara
environmental performance
dan
economic performance
disebabkan karena
economic performance
atau kinerja ekonomi suatu perusahaan tidak dilihat oleh investor dari kinerja di dalam
lingkungan perusahaan
environmental performance
. Investor kurang memperhatikan apa yang
dilakukan perusahaan,
dan hanya
memperhatikan bagaimana kondisi perusahaan di dalam pasar apakah menguntungkan atau tidak bila
dilakukan investasi. Diduga bahwa para pelaku pasar modal di Indonesia dalam menentukan investasi pada
perusahaan terbuka yang terdaftar di bursa efek melihatnya dari sejumlah aspek atau variabel sebagai
contoh: rasio keuangan, ukuran perusahaan, dan kategori investasi apakah perusahaan merupakan
penanaman modal dalam negeri PMDN ataukah penanaman modal asing PMA.
Selain itu peneliti juga menduga hubungan yang tidak signifikan positif antara
environmental performance
dan
economic performance
ini dikarenakan Indonesia masih sebagai negara
berkembang. Hasil penelitian serupa pada beberapa negara maju yaitu Canada, Jepang dan Eropa
menunjukkan hubungan yang signifikan positif seperti halnya penelitian Marcus Wagner dan Stefan
Schaltegger 2004 yang menemukan hubungan yang positif antara environmental dengan economic
performance
pada perusahaan-perusahaan
manufaktur di Eropa. Pada penelitiannya yang lain, Marcus mengungkapkan bahwa perusahaan yang
memiliki strategi pengembangan lingkungan akan memiliki hubungan yang lebih positif dengan
economic performance
perusahaannya di bandingkan dengan perusahaan yang tidak memiliki strategi.
Begitu pula hasil yang didapatkan oleh Jean-Francois Henry 2009 pada perusahaan-perusahaan di
Canada, surveinya
menunjukkan pengelolaan
261
lingkungan secara tidak langsung berpengaruh terhadap
economic performance
perusahaan. Hasil yang sama juga di peroleh pada perusahaan-
perusahaan manufaktur di Jepang yaitu terdapat hubungan
yang signifikan
positif antara
environmental performance
dan
economic performance
perusahaan. Ketiga hasil penelitian di negara maju tersebut menjadi landasan atas dugaan
bahwa perbedaan negara maju dan negara berkembang bila dilihat dari
sisi ekonomi menyebabkan perilaku serta pola pikir investor di
kedua negara tersebut akan berbeda.
2. Hipotesis 2 :
Environmental disclosure
berpengaruh signifikan
positif terhadap
economic performance
Berdasarkan hasil analisis dengan regresi data panel, menunjukkan bahwa variabel
environmental disclosure
tidak berpengaruh signifikan positif terhadap variabel
economic performance
dari perusahaan agroindustri. Pada beberapa perusahaan
sampel, banyaknya pengungkapan tidak menjamin
economic performance
perusahaan menjadi baik. Sebagai contoh, ketika perusahaan dengan kode
FASW mengungkapkan 16 item atau sekitar 53 dari item GRI yang harus diungkapkan, nilai ROE
yang merupakan proksi dari
economic performance
perusahaan bernilai
-16. Berbeda
dengan perusahaan
sampel lainnya
yang item
pengungkapannya di bawah 53 namun memiliki nilai ROE yang positif. Hal ini memperlihatkan
banyak tidaknya pengungkapan tidak mempengaruhi nilai ROE perusahaan agroindustri perusahaan
sampel.
Selain itu, ekonomi suatu perusahaan tidak dilihat melalui pengungkapan yang dilakukan
perusahaan tetapi kebanyakan hanya dilihat melalui keuntungan yang diperoleh perusahaan. Apa yang
dilakukan perusahaan di dalam dan di luar perusahaan cenderung tidak terlalu diperhatikan oleh
pelaku pasar dan investor. Apa saja yang diungkapkan perusahaan mengenai lingkungannya
tidak
mempengaruhi kinerja
ekonomi suatu
perusahaan secara
positif karena
pelaku pasarinvestor tidak melihat apa yang diungkapkan
oleh perusahaan
mengenai lingkungan
perusahaannya, tetapi pasar hanya melihat
return
yang dihasilkan oleh perusahaan tiap tahunnya. Berbeda lagi dengan kecenderungan yang terjadi di
Indonesia dimana para pelaku pasar di Indonesia cenderung hanya melihat dan merespon informasi
yang terjadi di pasar sebatas informasi yang diberikan dan kurang melihat dari kinerja ekonomi
dari suatu perusahaan Handayani, 2010. Sembiring 2006 dalam Wibisono 2011,
menyatakan bahwa berdasarkan teori legitimasi, salah satu argumentasi dalam hubungan antara
profitabilitas dan tingkat kinerja sosial adalah ketika perusahaan memiliki tingkat laba yang tinggi
perusahaan menganggap tidak perlu melaporkan hal- hal yang dapat menganggu informasi tentang sukses
keuangan perusahaan. Sebaliknya, pada saat tingkat profitabilitas rendah mereka berharap para pengguna
laporan akan membaca
good news
kinerja perusahaan,
misalnya dalam
lingkup lingkungansosial dan dengan demikian investor
akan tetap berinvestasi di perusahaan tersebut. Sehingga secara garis besar ketika perusahaan
memperoleh profit
yang tinggi
economic performance
perusahaan dalam keadaan baik maka pengungkapan yang dipaparkan perusahaan dalam
annual report
-nya tidak terlalu banyak, namun ketika perusahaan
memperoleh profit
yang rendah
economic performance
perusahaan tidak dalam keadaan baik perusahaan berusaha memaparkan hal-
hal baik dalam
annual report
dengan tujuan menarikmempertahankan investor. Hal ini dapat
menjadi alasan mengapa
environmental disclosure
tidak berpengaruh signifikan positif terhadap
economic performance
perusahaan agroindustri yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia.
3. Hipotesis 3 :
Environmental performance
dan
environmental disclosure
berpengaruh signifikan
positif terhadap
economic performance.
Secara simultan,
environmental performance
dan
environmental disclosure
juga tidak signifikan mempengaruhi
economic performance
perusahaan agroindustri. Seperti yang telah dijelaskan dalam
pembahasan hipotesis 1 dan hipotesis 2,
economic performance
atau kinerja ekonomi suatu perusahaan tidak dilihat oleh investor dari kinerja di dalam
lingkungan perusahaan
environmental performance
. Investor biasanya akan melihat
economic
perusahaan dari
return
yang dihasilkan perusahaan, ukuran perusahaan, modal perusahaan
dan posisi perusahaan. Investor juga tidak melihat kinerja ekonomi
suatu perusahaan dari banyaknya
disclosure
yang dilakukan
perusahaan dalam
annual report
perusahaan karena menurut teori legitimasi secara garis besar ketika perusahaan memperoleh profit
yang tinggi
economic performance
perusahaan dalam keadaan baik maka pengungkapan yang
dipaparkan perusahaan dalam
annual report
-nya tidak terlalu banyak. Hal ini mengakibatkan investor
tidak data melihat kinerja ekonomi perusahaan hanya dari laporan tahunannya.
262 Dua hal tersebut menjadikan
environmental performance
dan
environmental disclosure
secara bersamaan tidak dapat mempengaruhi
economic performance
perusahaan secara siginifikan positif. Hasil penelitian pada hipotesis 3 ini, tidak
mendukung temuan Al Tuwaijri, SA., Christensen, T.E. dan Hughes II, K.E. 2004 yang menemukan
bahwa hubungan e
nvironmental performance,
environmental disclosure
dan
economic performance
secara statistik signifikan. PENUTUP
Berdasarkan hasil kajian yang dilakukan, disimpulkan sejumlah hal berikut:
1. Environmental performance
tidak memiliki pengaruh secara signifikan positif terhadap
economic performance
perusahaan agroindustri. 2.
Environmental disclosure
tidak memiliki
pengaruh secara signifikan positif terhadap
economic performance
dari perusahaan
agroindustri.
3. Secara simultan, environmental performance
dan
environmental disclosure
tidak memiliki pengaruh secara signifikan positif terhadap
economic performance
perusahaan agroindustri. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, saran yang dapat
diberikan sebagai berikut : 1.
Untuk penelitian selanjutnya penggunaan lingkup perusahaan yang lebih luas tidak hanya bidang
agroindustri sangat disarankan agar hasil yang diperoleh lebih beragam.
2. Selain itu tahun penelitian hendaknya memiliki
rentang tahun yang lebih lama agar diperoleh hasil yang mendetil mengenai kinerja perusahaan.
Dalam menilai pengungkapan yang dilakukan perusahaan, dapat digunakan daftar
checklist
lain seperti
yang bersumber
dari Bapepam,
Crismawati dan lainnya. DAFTAR PUSTAKA

Makroergonomi, perbaikan sistem kerja
di UKM
Industri Rumah Tangga merupakan sektor terdepan yang mampu mengembangkan perekonomian suatu daerah secara mandiri. Keberadaannya menjadi
penting, karena mampu menyediakan lapangan pekerjaan bagi masyarakat sekitar. Upaya pengembangan industri rumah tangga tidak terlepas dari penerapan teknologi
baik berupa penyediaan sarana prasarana, perbaikan metode penyimpanan barang, pengolahan, pengemasan hingga pemasaran. Oleh karenanya mengidentifikasi factor
pendukung keberhasilan transfer teknologi pada industry rumah tangga sangat penting sebagai sebuah referensi bagi penerapan teknologi yang efektif pada industry rumah
tangga. Karena pada kenyataannya tak jarang ditemuai proses transfer teknologi tidak bejalan secara efektif.
Pendekatan makroergonomi merupakan sebuah pendekatan dalam melakukan perbaikan system kerja dengan mempertimbangkan semua aspek dalam proses
perbaikannya. Sehingga pendekatan inpun relevan jika diterapkan pada perbaikan system kerja di IKM yang pada proses pengembangannya tak terlepas dari proses
transfer teknologi. Faktor dalam makroergonomi adalah Pekerja, Mesin atau Teknologi, Lingkungn kerja, dan Organisasi kerja serta proses interaksi antara semua
elemen di dalamnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk Memetakan faktor
– faktor makroergonomi yang berpengaruh terhadap proses transfer teknologi pada industry
kecil menengah berbasis potensi local. Penelitian dilakukan di UKM aneka keripik di desa Cileles Jatinangor dan IKM keripik di desa Pagedangan Indramayu.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa factor utama yang memperngaruhi keberhasilan proses transfer teknologi secara berurutan berdasarkan tingkat kepentingannya adalah:
Organisasi kerja, SDM, Lingkungan kerja, serta Teknologi. Dengan pendekatan makroergonomi terlihat bahwa teknologi yang akan diterapkan bukan menjadi focus
utama dalam pengembangan IKM. Justru kesiapan organisasi kerja SDM serta Lingkungan kerja patut menjadi factor yang dipertimbangkan ketika proses transfer
teknologi akan dilakukan..

PENDAHULUAN
Sistem kerja merupakan kumpulan elemen dari sebuah rangkaian aktifitas pekerjaan yang saling
berinteraksi untuk mencapai suatu tujuan pekerjaan yang ingin dicapai.Sistem kerja dalam sebuah
aktifitas pekerjaan baik di industri dengan skala makro dan mikro diantaranya pekerja, mesin,
lingkungan kerja, dan organisasi kerja. Dalam Perbaikansistemkerja pertimbangan ke empat elemen
tersebut serta proses interaksinya tidak bisa dilepaskan dalam proses pengambilan kebijakan
dalam perbaikan sistem kerja. Ada beberapa pendekatan yang dapat dilakukan dalam melakukan
perbaikan
sebuah sistem
kerja, diantaranya
pendekatan makroergonomi, mikro ergonomi, dan pendekatan rekayasa engineering.
Pendekatan makroergonomi
merupakan sebuah pendekatan dalam melakukan intervensi
ergonomi dengan mempertimbangkan semua aspek dalam
proses perbaikannya.
Aspek tersebut
diantaranya Pekerja,
Mesin atau
Teknologi, Lingkungn kerja, dan Organisasi kerja serta proses
interaksi antara semua elemen di dalamnya. Aspek pekerja meliputi tingkat pendidikan pekerja,
karakteristik pekerja dalam menerima masukan perbaikan, serta etos kerja. Aspek teknologi meliputi
karakteristik
teknologi, kemudahan
untuk dioperasikan dengan tingkat pendidikan pekerja,
keamanan dan kenyamanan ketika digunakan, serta fleksibilitas teknologi. Aspek lingkungan kerja
meliputi kondisi sosial ekonomi pekerja, lingkungan sekitar tempat pekerja, dan iklim kerja. Sedangkan
aspek organisasi kerja meliputi karakteristik manajemen, dan penerapan semua aturan kerja.
Pendekatan mikroergonomi
merupakan pendekatan dalam intervensi ergonomi yang hanya
mempertimbangkan aspek pekerja dan teknologi. Perbaikan yang dilakukan dalam skala makro
maupun mikro didasarkan pada pertimbangan dari aspek pekerja dan teknologi yang akan diterapkan
atau diperbaiki, baik itu perbaikan dimensi stasiun kerja, dimensi alat atau mesin,perbaikan sikap kerja,
dll. Sedangkan pendekatan rekayasa engineering didasarkan pada perhitungan secara kuantitatif
produktifitas yang dihasilkan oleh mesin teknologi yang akan diterapkan.
Menurut Carayon dan Smith 2000 pertimbangan organisasi kerja dan ergonomi akan
berpengaruh signifikan terhadap performansi pekerja yang pada akhirnya berdampak pada produktifitas
kerja yang dihasilkan. Hal ini menjadi realistis karena dalam organisasi kerja terdapat pertimbangan dari
aspek manajemen. Aspek manajemen menjadi kunci dalam penerapan setiap intervensi ergonomi dalam
perbaikan sistem kerja, karena dalam perbaikan sistem kerja tidak cukup hanya menerapkan sebuah
teknologi dalam memperbaiki produktifitas, namun perbaikan dari sisi pengelolaan manajemen dan
perbaikan berupa kebijakan
– kebijakan yang hanya dapat dilakukan oleh pihak manajemen juga akan
berdampak luas pada proses perbaikan yang terjadi. Oleh karenanya pendekatan macroergonomi dinilai
sangat layak untuk diterapkan dalam proses perbaikan sistem kerja yang menyeluruh baik pada
tingkat usaha makro dan mikro. TUJUAN PENELITIAN
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah
1. Memetakan faktor
– faktor makroergonomi yang berpengaruh terhadap proses transfer
teknologi pada Industri kecil menengah berbasis potensi lokal
2. Memetakan perbaikan sistem kerja pada masing
– masing aspek yang berpengaruh yang dinilai mampu memperbaiki produktifitas kerja yang
memungkinkan untuk diterapkan pada Industri Kecil Menengah IKM
METODE PENELITIAN Penelitian di lakukan di IKM aneka keripik di desa
Cileles Jatinangor dan IKM Krips aneka keripik Pisang di Desa Pagedangan, Indramayu. UKM yang
dijadikan objek penelitian merupakan jemis UKM dengan mekanisme sistem produksi secara mandiri.
Artinya pemilik usaha melakukan produksi secara mandiri. Metode yang dilakukan dalam pendekatan
makroergonomi adalah dengan observasi field study dan wawancara semi struktur. Dua metode ini
menurut Hendrick dan Kleiner 2002 relevan untuk diterapkan pada pendekatan makroergonomi. Karena
dalam makroergonomi terdapat penggabungan antara aspek sosial, teknikal, dan sosioteknikal. Keuntungan
yang diperoleh dari pendekatan observasi adalah diperoleh data riil di lapangan, mengenai aspek
penerapan kebijakan manajemen d lapangan, pekerja, proses kerja, serta lingkungan kerja yang mungkin

MenurutAbarghouei 2012 proses evaluasi kinerja dan intervensi ergonomi hingga tercipta
proses intervensi ergonomi yang menyeluruh di dasarkan pada empat hal, yaitu : Daya dukung
manjemen dan logistic, daya dukung pengetahuan atau peningkatan kemampuan, partisipasi dan
evaluasi pegawai, serta pengembangan SDM.
Menurut Kleiner 1999 makroergonomi merupakan sub disiplin ilmu kebaruan dalam proses
intervensi ergonomi yang menggabungkan antara faktor teknologi, manusiapekerja, organisasi kerja,
dan lingkungan kerja serta interaksi antara empat komponen dalam makroergonomi sistem tersebut.
Berdasarkan proses diskusi dan literatur tersebut, maka peneliti mencoba mengelompokan faktor
makro ergonomi dalam proses transfer teknologi kedalam setiap aspek elemen dalam makroergonomi.

HASIL DAN PEMBAHASAN
Perbaikan system kerja tidak terlepas dari proses transfer teknologi yang ada di dalamnya.
Proses transfer teknologi pada skala industri kecil dan menengah IKM pada prinsipnya memiliki
tuuan yang sama seperti proses transfer teknologi pada industri skala besar, yaitu memberikan nilai
tambah pada produk yang dihasilkan serta mampu meningkatkan keuntungan dan keunggulan dari
usaha yang dilakukan. Namun ada beberapa aspek yang membedakan. Hal ini dikarenakan IKM
memiliki karakteristik yang unik jika dibandingkan dengan industri skala besar. Berikut adalah
karakteristik UKM berbasis olahan pangan menurut Rahmah dan Purnomo 2014:

Gambar 3. Kategori sumberdaya manusia Gambar 4. Kategori Lingkungan Kerja
Dari hasil pengkodean diperoleh kombinasi faktor dalam makroergonomi yang mempengaruhi
sebuah transfer teknologi dalam perbaikan sistem kerja dalam Gambar 4 di atas. Aspek organisasi kerja
memegang peranan yang sangat penting dalam mendukung keberhasilan proses transfer teknologi
yaitu sebesar 51 . Hal ini berarti bahwa keberhasilan dari sebuah proses transfer teknologi
pada IKM akan ditentukan pada kesiapan organisasi kerja pada IKM. Berikut adalah penjabaran mengenai
aspek Organisasi kerja yang dimaksud adalah aspek manajemen, visi organisasi, Aturan kerja, Sifat
organisasi, Budaya kerja, serta sarana dan prasarana.
Aspek sumberdaya manusia menjadi aspek penting lainnya yang harus menjadi pertimbangan
dalam sebuah transfer teknologi. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa aspek SDM memiliki posisi strategis dalam
proses transfer teknologi, beberapa hal yang menjadi pertimbangan adalah terlihat bahwa sub aspek dalam
kategori SDM yang memiliki tingkat kepentingan terbesar adalah kemampuan menerima perubahan
hal baru, serta skill atau kemampuan dalam bekerja. Hal ini tentu menjadi landasan teoritis bagi metode
yang akan diterapkan dalam pengembangan IKM. Pendekatan secara menyeluruh serta pola
– pola pendampingan menjadi catatan penting bagi proses
transfer teknologi
agar mampu
diterima perubahannya oleh IKM. Kemampuan dalam bekerja
pun sangat berpengaruh, karena Sedangkan aspek Teknologi menjadi aspek
terkecil sebagai factor penentu keberhasilan dari penerapan teknologi. Hal ini tentu memberikan
penjelasan tersendiri bahwa melalui pendekatan makroergonomi,dalam proses pengembangan IKM
dengan transfer teknologi, teknologi itu sendiri seharusnya tidak menjadi fokus bagi pelaku IKM
atau pendamping IKM. Namun penyiapan aspek organisasi kerja, SDM, serta lingkungan kerja,
menjadi hal lain yang perlu diperhatikan dalam pengembangan IKM.

memegang tingkat kepentingan yang cukup besar dalam proses transfer teknologi adalah
organisasi kerja dan SDM. Tentu hal ini menjadi
pertimbangan yang
harus diperhatikan dalam proses transfer teknologi
pada IKM.

bridge
The research wa s conducted in Majalengka Regency, West Java Province, Indonesia. The Mekar Jaya Group underwent four phases in its lifetime. Each phase had its own
characteristics and processes, including the election and succession of a leader, collective action and conflict. These characteristics and processes implied that there
wa s a communication network within the group in each phase. The current study describes the network, the role of the leader in the network and the role of the network
in group sustainability. The results show that there were some bridges in the network that helped the group to survive after conflict. Most of the bridges or cut-points were
sub-leaders. There is also a shift of basis of clique formation from neighborhood to closeness of relationship

INTRODUCTION
Group sustainability has become an important condition for the continuity of society-
empowerment programs in relation with poverty- reduction
programs. One
model of
group sustainability is the Mekar Jaya Group MJG, which
is located in Majalengka regency, West Java Province, Indonesia.
The MJG experienced four group leader successions, resulting in four group phases of life.
These leaders were involved in cooperating with the outer part. Along that time, the Mekar Jaya Group
MJG was a farmers group that accepted external aid. Since 1989, the Mekar Jaya Group accepted aid
from university and the local government. Cooperation with outer part demonstrated that there
was a communication process flowed from the outside to the inside of the group. It was then
delivered to all members in the group..
The following question remains: how did the group manage the communication network to
implement programs and solve conflict and then enter the latter phase? In order to answer this
question, it
is important
to observe
the communication network in each phase.
Therefore, the current work addresses the following questions:
1. What
was the communication
network structure within the group in each phase?
2. Did within group communication
patterns influence the group’s sustainability?
3. What was the role of the leader in the
within group communication flow in each phase?
A social network is a structure that is composed of a set of actors, some of whom are connected by a
set of one or more relations. Social structures can be represented as networks, sets of nodes or social
system members and sets of ties depicting their interconnections Wellman Berkowitz, 1988, p.4.
Historical overviews of the origins and diffusions of network principles have been presented by Freeman
2004, Scott 2000, and Knox, Savage, and Harvey 2006.
In Bavelas’ design Bavelas, 1950, each in-
group individual is given certain information. The group is given the task of assembling this
information, using it to make a decision, and then issuing orders based on this decision. The critical
feature of the design is that the group members are separated from one another and can communicate
only through channels that can be opened or closed by the member. This feature implies that the
communication network is the main element of the social network. Jacobson and Seashore 1951
proposed that the structure of an organization can be conceptualized and described in terms of the regular,
work-related, interpersonal communication patterns that are established between pair of individuals.
The methodology for the approach and a set of structural concepts for classifying network data was
described in detail by Weiss and Jacobson 1955 in a report on an application of the procedure in a
government agency. There are several steps in network analysis. The
first
step is to obtain a record of regular dyadic linkages by asking members to list
the names of persons in the organization with whom they work most closely.
Next
, the reported contacts are compared against each other in a matrix to
determine reciprocation of contact mutual choice among respondents. Only reciprocated contacts are
used to define the communication network.
The last
step in the process allows one to separate out the groups and to classify all members of the
organization into one of the following role types: group member, brokerage bridge, and isolate.
Rogers and Kincaid 1981 stated that a communication network is the pattern of varying
communication elements that are demonstrated by communication flow patterns in a system. The
analysis of a communication network may include the following: 1 identifying a clique in the system;
2 identifying the role of a person in the system; and 3 measuring communication network indicators,
such as the degree of openness and the integration of the system, including centrality degree.
In order to measure or analyze the network, the following process is conducted. As mentioned, the
first step is to obtain a record of regular dyadic linkages by asking members to list the names of the
persons in the organization with whom they work most closely. Next, the reported contacts are
compared against each other in a matrix to determine reciprocation of contact mutual choice among
respondents. This matrix is called the adjacency matrix with symmetric relationships. An example is
displayed in table 1.

Table 1 shows the relationships among members. When one member has a reciprocal
relationship with another member, the line is coded as 1 for both individuals e.g., the relationship
between node 1 and 2 is a reciprocal relationship. However, if one member has no reciprocal
relationship with another member, the line is coded as 1 and 0 e.g., the relationship between node 1 and
node 4. From this matrix, we can display the digraph of the communication network. Every member is
symbolized by a node and connected with a line.
In relation to the nodes of relationships in the network structure, the concept of the star is also
typically used. Ognyanova, et al 2010 stated that the star is the actor or node that has many connections or
is highly central. In cliques, many stars should exist because there is a leader in a clique, and that leader
was the star. However, an absolute definition of the star for this paper is needed because numerous nodes
have many connections. Therefore, the number of connections that the star can have should be
determined. It can be seen from the adjacent table that several nodes could be stars.

Source: Primary data, 2002 and 2011 Based on Table 2, the total number of stars in
each phase can be defined and reflect the opinion leader in each phase in reality after combining the
result of visual graph analysis in result section and qualitative research in the field. In phase I, there was
a leader of group node 1 and there were 4 opinion or sub leaders node 8,9,22, and 28. These leaders
have their own cliques. The leader has 8 mutual connections in group. The sub leader 8 has 10 mutual
connections, the sub leader 9 has 6 mutual connections, the sub leader 22 has 8 mutual
connections, the sub leader 28 has 9 mutual connections. Therefore, the total number of star is 5.
In phase II, there were still five opinion leaders and one of them became a group leader. The sub
leader 1 has 6 mutual connections, the sub leader 8 has 11 mutual connections, the sub leader 9 has 5
mutual connections, the sub leader 22 has 10 mutual connections, the sub leader 28 has 10 mutual
connections. However, only 4 cliques occurred in group because the opinion leader 1 and 9 united in
one clique in this phase and the sub leader 1 became the clique leader. The sub leader 9 tends to have a
function as coordinator or facilitator among the sub leaders. Therefore the total number of stars in phase
II is 4.
In phase III, there was a decrease of sub leader number which is reflected by the decrease of the
clique number. In this phase, only there are two cliques and two sub leaders. They were node 9 and
22. Node 1 and 8 were not the sub leaders again because the conflict between them and their follower
joined to another clique and in the reality, these ex- sub leaders reduced their activity in group, especially
the node 8, he started inactive at the end of phase III and became fully inactive in phase IV. The ex sub
leader 28 also has loss their followers because most of his followers are the free riders. The sub leader 9
has 10 mutual connections and the sub leader 22 has 12 mutual connections. It is clearly that these nodes
are the stars.
In phase IV, there were three sub leaders. They were the sub leader 9,22,28. The sub leader 9 has 6
mutual connections, the sub leader 22 has 12 mutual connections, and the sub leader 28 has 10 mutual
connections. These leaders are the leader of their cliques and became the stars.
Clique analysis to investigate group structures helps researchers understand how cohesion benefits
group members by providing advice and instrumental support and how an extensive reliance on cliques
restricts. A clique is a maximal complete sub-graph of three or more nodes, all of which are directly
connected to one another, with no other node in the network having direct ties to every member of the
clique Knoke Yang, 2008.
Rogers and Kincaid 1981 defined the clique as a subsystem whose elements interact with each
other relatively more frequently than with other members of the communication system. Individuals
are placed into cliques based on the following three criteria:
1. Each clique must have a minimum of three
members. 2.
Each clique member must have at least 50 percent of hisher links within the clique the
average number of links within the clique is
274 taken from the number of links and then divided
by the number of clique members. 3.
All clique members must be directly or indirectly connected by a continuous chain of
dyadic links within the clique. The current paper used the term clique
proposed by both Knoke and Yang and Rogers and Kincaid, but with modifications on the third criteria
that all clique members are directly or indirectly connected by reciprocal links or non-reciprocal links
within the clique. However, exceptions occur in real- life situations. If one criterion is not satisfied, but the
other criteria are satisfied, the network can be considered to be a clique.
The network analysis field has devoted considerable energy to developing methods for
identifying central nodes in a network that are important to diffusion and other actions that occur in
networks Borgatti and Everett, 2006. In contrast, Granovetter 1973 introduced the concept of
bridging, which emphasizes the importance of structural bridges for diffusion. According to
Granovetter 1973, 1982, bridges reduce the overall distance between individuals in a network, enabling
information to spread more rapidly throughout the network.
In the present paper, the bridge is the link, and the node is referred to as the cut-point. Furthermore,
the definition of the bridge is expanded to not only connect two cliques, but also to connect one node and
the network. The expansion is made because there were some nodes free riders in the phase III group
that connect to the group through members that functioned as cut-points. Thus, the types of bridge in
this paper are the following: 1 clique-bridges that connect between clique and clique and 2 node-
bridges that connect a node and network. Here, a node is an isolated member if it is disconnected from
the network. It can be concluded that a cut-point is a node that has the line that can connect between a
network and isolated node or clique and clique. A bridge is a line that belongs to a cut-point that can
connect between the network and isolated node or clique and clique.
The current paper also presents a description of the communication network in one group along its
life over the long term and explains the influence of the network on group sustainability. The specific
method used was some questions about the closeness of the relationship of members in each phase. This
study presents an explanation of the relationship between collective action and network change within
a group. It continues the previous study by Tacaks, Janky and Flache 2008. They studied network
change over time and its relationship with collective action through research on the connected theme and
proposed the model of social control and collective action. The previous paper was a secondary case
study, whereas the current paper is a field work study. In fact, none of the previous studies on network
change over the life span utilized field work.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This case study generates a descriptive explanation of a group communication network. The
location of research was Cangkring hamlet of Kadipaten
Village, Kadipaten
Subdistrict, Majalengka Regency, West Java Province. The
location was chosen because there were many programs and internal conflicts within the group that
were resolved by the communication network.
The research population included all 69 members of the Mekar Jaya Group. The research
sample included the entire population, which increased the significance of the results complete
enumeration. The number of members varied according to the phase to which they belonged. The
unit of analysis was the communication network in- group.
The data were collected through interviews, field work and focus group discussions. Surveys were
administrated as in-person interviews with an emphasis on the member
’s description or explanation on a questionnaire that was tested with selected
members in each leadership era the group experienced four leadership changes. Members were
asked to recall the relationship structure within the group. The primary questions were as follows: 1
Who were the people in the subgroup neighborhood with whom you often discussed matters important to
you? 2 Who were the people in another subgroup neighborhood with whom you often discussed
matters important to you? Respondents were also asked how often they talked to each individual, on
average, and the various types of role relations relative, neighbor, and friend present in those cases.
The reliability analysis was conducted using repeated method and produced Jaccard
’s coefficient. In the first interview, the informant who was checked
was 10 of the original sample i.e., 7 names. The second interview yielded 6 names, and 5 persons
were chosen at both interviews. Jaccard ’s coefficient
= 55+2+1 = 0.63. The reliability result also reflected the validity of items. The informants should
be weighted by their reliability Knoke Yang, 2008.
Furthermore, group discussions were held to gather qualitative information about the group. The
field work was conducted by the researcher. Data collection took place in 2002 and was updated in
275
2011. A visual graph display was used to show and analyze the network using Netdraw.
The goal of this research was to determine how the communication network structure occurs
within a group. This structure is important because it is expected that the communication network structure
had a strong influence on how the group overcame conflict and maintained the group process.
The last step in the process allowed us to separate out the groups and to classify all members of
the organization into one of the following role types: group member, brokerage bridge, and isolate. Next,
calculations such as centrality degree were conducted.
Centrality Degree CD measures the extent to which a node connects to all other nodes in a social
network. For a non-directed graph with g actors, the degree of centrality for actor node
i
is the sum of
i
’s direct ties to the
g
– 1 other actors. In matrix notation,
g CD

relation to itself. After calculating the centrality degree of actors, we calculated the group centrality
degree. Unlike actor centrality degree, group centrality degree measures the extent to which the
actors in a social network differ from one another in their individual centrality degree. The centrality
degree of group closely resembles measures of dispersion in descriptive statistics, such as the
standard deviation, that indicate the amount of variation or spread around a central tendency value.
Freeman 1979 proposed a generic measure of group centrality degree:
g ∑ [C
A
N – C
A
N

G
= _________________________ g

Where C
A
N denotes the largest actor centrality degree observed in a network, and the C
A
N
i
are the centrality degrees of the g-1 other actors. Thus, the numerator sums the observed differences
between the largest actor centrality and all others. The denominator is the theoretically maximum
possible sum of those differences. GROUP DESCRIPTION
Group Collective Action The Mekar Jaya Group life history includes
four phases of group life. Each phase had its own collective action as one of manifestation of network
communication. In phase I 1989-1994, the collective action
was the planting of trees that had leaves for feeding. Trees were planted along the Cilutung River. Some
of the small trees could be harvested within six months to one year, whereas others could be
harvested after several years.
Another collective action, gathering and selling sheep feces, was also started in phase I. Many
farmers in the upland area needed it for become fertilizer. They typically stacked the feces near a stall
and let it dry. After drying, it would be placed in sacks, collected by the sub group leader, and sold to
the buyer. The group members agreed to a price of IDR 15,000 per sack. The frequency of feces
collection was once every three months. One stall could produce six sacks, on average, resulting in 180
sacks from all stalls owned by the active members.
The last collective action was the group meeting. During group meetings, all or a
representative of sub-group members met and discussed the issues that the group faced. Meetings
were held every month. The selection of a new group leader was also facilitated by the group meeting, as
the incumbent suggested a new name and the members voted for him.
In phase II 1995-1997, the collective action was preparing the grass for sheep feeding. Because of
the large number of sheep, the group planted grass along the river bank. The land along the river bank
was owned by the village. The group could plant grass on this land through the approval of the village
head. The land use was divided and distributed to subgroup members.
The group meeting was also conducted in phase II, but it was not held as often as was the case
in phase I. The group meeting was held when the members approved the new leader in this phase.
Then, at the end of the phase, the succession of the phase II leader occurred, resulting in the beginning of
phase III.
In phase III 1997-2002, the utilization of land for planting grass did not seem to satisfy the
necessity of sheep feeding, especially when the dry season arrived. The group initiated grass collection
from remote locations with an abundance of grass stock. The chosen location was Sumber village, at
Sumber sub district, Cirebon. They often used the truck that was owned by the sugar factory, but also
sometimes rented a truck that was owned by the villagers to travel to Sumber. They left in the morning
and returned in the afternoon.
276 In phase III, the other collective action was
the
arisan
.
Arisan
or ROSCA rotary savings and credit association was conducted in the third year of
the project. Each member paid IDR 5,000 per month to the sub leader. Every month, the group held a raffle
in which four members won. However, the implementation of
arisan
could not exist in the long term because group conflict arose.
The group meeting was again promoted. It started with the succession of the leader from phase
II to the new leader in phase III, followed by the division of the group into sub-groups to make the
program run effectively. However, halfway through phase III, conflict arose when the return of aid did not
run smoothly. The impact was that the program could not be implemented effectively.
From phase IV until now, the group has revitalized the group size. In phase IV 2002-2009,
the group meeting was held when the group decided to revitalize the group size by reducing the group
membership. Planting grass at the river bank continued to satisfy the needs of feeding. The last
action that is still ongoing was the gathering of sheep feces and selling it to the farmers in the upland area
of Majalengka.
The Change in Group Members
The Mekar Jaya Group experienced four periods of change in size. The phase I group included
30 people all of them were active members until phase IV, the phase II group included 50 people
consisting of 30 people of phase I and 20 new members, 12 of which became active members and 8
of which became inactive members, the phase III group included 69 people consisting of 30 people of
phase I, 20 people of phase II and 19 new members who became inactive and left the group in the latter
phase and the phase IV group included 34 people. These data were updated in 2011 as following.
Data were collected in 2002, 2009, and 2011. In 2002, 69 individuals all members were
interviewed, and the units of analysis were group dynamics and the group communication network. In
2009, 42 people phase IV group were interviewed, and the unit of analysis was group dynamics. In the
2009 data collection, the phase IV group included 39 individuals, with 27 people from the phase I group
and 12 people from the phase II group. In 2011, 34 people phase IV group were interviewed, and the
unit analysis was the group communication network. This final membership in Phase IV included the
Phase I group 24 people and the Phase II group 10 people. Six members from phase I recently passed
away and 2 members from phase II are no longer members, as they have moved to another village
since 2010. No members from the Phase III group remained in the group.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Communication Network in Phase I
The group accepted aid in the form of sheep from Bogor Agricultural University. The leader of
phase I was elected in the group meeting. The meeting was held at hamlet hall Cangkring hamlet
hall. All of the members attended the meeting and not exception the BAU officer. This meeting is called
musyawarah
. “Musyawarah” is a term in Indonesian culture that means a group discussion for solving a
problem. In musyawarah, there is no voting. The members release the issue, and then by some
considerations, all of the members agree on a choice through their opinion leaders, even if all members
attend the meeting. In the MJG meeting, the members agreed to choose leader A phase I leader
as the group leader. One reason for this choice was that leader A actively encouraged the villagers to
make a group. Another reason was that leader A was assumed as the brave man in the hamlet. He typically
did not hesitate to release the opinion and statement for the deed. However, this characteristic later
became his weakness in the conflict between him and the village apparatus. He made a choice that was
contrary to the decision of the village head.
Later, the group meeting was used to discuss any issue that the group faced, and this was
encouraged by the BAU officer. He often used the group meeting to deliver his knowledge and new
innovation to the members. The group meeting was typically conducted monthly in leader A
’s house. The members of the group were the
Cangkring hamlet residents. Some people were invited by leader A, supported by the BAU officer to
build the group. They invited their neighbor, who was also involved in sheep husbandry, from a different
neighborhood or Rukun Tetangga RT. This decision was based on the suggestion of the BAU
officer to increase the economic community. Of the 6 RTs in the Cangkring hamlet, 4 RTs were chosen
because the residents were primarily farmers and husbandries. The other
RTs’ residents were primarily vegetable traders and small shop traders. Then, 22
husbandries met together and built the group. They felt that the group was not complete without the
relationship with sheep traders. Thus, they also invited 8 sheep traders in the hamlet to join. The final
membership totaled 30 people.
When the group cooperated with the BAU officer, several programs were planned in relation
with the aid, including planted trees. The group also had a division of roles. The leader chose one

secretary and one treasurer to manage the project. After they chose the leader, secretary and treasurer,
they chose the group location near an irrigation pool. The group meeting musyawarah and the structure
of the group demonstrate the flow of communication in the group.
The communication network feature in phase I is shown by figure 1. Each node represents a
member. The leader A is node 1, the secretary is node 9 and the treasurer is node 8. Figure 4 shows that
there was no bridge in the network. The network was stable. Figure 1 also shows that there were some stars
within the group. The stars are node 1, 8, 9, 22, and 28. Focus group discussion revealed that all of these
nodes became the opinion leader in their sub groups. In phase I, the sub groups were informal.

Fig 1. Communication Network in Phase I
There were four cliques in phase I ’s network
structure refer to the criteria for cliques in the introduction:
1. Clique 1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10
2. Clique 2: 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16
3. Clique 3: 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23
4. Clique 4: 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30
Four cliques were constructed because there was a dyadic or reciprocal relationship composition
of complete sub-graph among some members and separated with another member. One clique had the
main complete of sub-graphs. The clique could consist of the main complete of sub-graphs e.g.,
clique 2, clique 3, and clique 4 or it could consist of the main complete of sub-graphs and non-complete
of sub-graphs because of non-reciprocal ties e.g., clique 1. Clique 1 had main complete of sub-graphs.
That is, the sub-graphs were built from the triangle 1- 2-4, 1-2-3, 1-3-9, and 1-9-10. However, other
triangles were built from non-reciprocal ties, including 1-4-5, 1-5-6, and 1-7-1, but these triangles
were also connected with the main sub-graphs of clique 1. Thus, they were included in clique 1. The
basis of clique formation was the RT. There were four RTs RT 03, RT 04, RT 05, RT 07 as the basis
of clique formation.
The clique criteria were not completely satisfied perfectly. Of the three criteria, only two
criteria were fully satisfied. However, it was considered as one clique. Node 22 in clique 5 did not
satisfy the second clique criteria because the average link was only 0.4. However, because it satisfied the
third criteria, it was included in clique 5.
Every opinion leader was linked to the group leader node 1. This is clearly shown by the close
relationships among opinion leaders, which tend to appear as a clique node 1, 8, 9, 22, 28. It was easier
for the leader to coordinate with other members. Every program in phase I the returning of sheep and
the planting of trees succeeded.
In 1995, there was a conflict between leader A and village apparatus. The resulting group conflict led to a
succession of leadership.
The conflict between Leader A and the village administrators was due to the plan to move the
location. Leader A, who was not liked by the village administrators, accused them of seeking a profit from
the land used for housing. The village administrators realized that if the location of the stalls was moved to
a specific area, the group would receive aid from the local government. The situation became complicated,
and most of the members supported the plan to move. Finally, the leader gave up but, he did not want to
continue as the leader because he did not want to be viewed as a loser, and he nominated his replacement.
However, he retained power in the group, and he remained active even after the conflict with the
village administrators. He gave his position to the secretary. This was the beginning of a new phase and
new
network structure
within the
group. Furthermore, from Table 3 to Table 6 it seen clearly
about total sheep industry which were produced in group and sheep ownership of cut-points.
IV.2 Communication Network in Phase II
The leader of phase II leader B continued to lead the group after leader A resigned. Leader A
gave his position to leader B node 9 after the moving plan conflict. The location was moved to the
land near the Cilutung river bank. Leader B began as leader after the
members’ approval at the meeting. In this phase, the friendship between leader
B and the treasurer node 8 became closer. Leader B felt that the treasurer had more knowledge on

managing the group. Due to the treasurer’s
experience in group internships and close association with a government officer, leader B and another
member often requested his suggestions. Through his mediation, the group accepted aid from the family
planning coordination body BKKBN.
In this period, the membership increased from 30 to 50 people. The additional individuals were
invited by the members. Relative and friendship relations became the choice of consideration. All of
the opinion leader in the group, including leader B, the secretary, and the treasurer, invited people from
their neighborhood into the group.
Note: : RT 03; : RT 04; : RT 05; : RT 06; : non-reciprocal tie;
: reciprocal tie Fig 2. Communication Network in phase II
There were 5 stars in the network: nodes 1, 8, 9, 22, and 28. As shown in figure 2, there were 6
cut-points in the new structure. These cut-points are the blue nodes node 14, 11, 13, 37, 27 and 46. They
appeared when the membership increased and were some of the individuals who invited new members
into the group. For example, node 46 invited node 47 and node 13 invited node 42. All of the bridges in
phase II were node-bridges. As previously stated, the relative and friend relation became the consideration
by the members of the group. There were several reasons for this.
First
, it was easier to coordinate with them;
second
, there was a desire to help brothers and friends achieve a better life; and
third
, the priority was a farmer or husbandry.
The increase in the member population resulted in the increase in the clique member
population. The basis of clique formation remained the RT. However, due to the new members invited by
the cut-points, the clique member population increased. However, a shift occurred when two
members of one RT became members of another clique nodes 5 and 10 became members of another
clique. This occurred because of their friendship relationship.
The cliques were the following: 1.
Clique 1: 1, 2, 3,4, 6, 7, 9 2.
Clique 2: 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 49, 50
3. Clique 3: 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 44, 45,
46, 47, 48 4.
Clique 4: 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 5, 10
Figure 2 also displays that in-group communication flowed through the opinion leader.
Nodes 8, 9, 22, and 28 helped leader B coordinate the group. Node 1 also helped leader B. Although node 1
was not active in the management team, his opinion was considered by those close to him. Therefore,
their close relationship appears as a clique. However, a comparison of figure 2 and figure 1 shows that
figure 2 is less stable than figure 1. The chain of communication became longer due to the increasing
group size. Communication Network in Phase III
The period of phase II was only two years 1995
– 1997. After the completion of the project, the aid from BKKBN, the treasurer offered the group
aid from the livestock office, Majalengka regency government. Leader B and the members accepted it.
At the same time, leader B suggested to the group that the treasurer would be a proper leader. Leader B
considered himself as the interim leader from leader A. The members accepted this change in leadership,
and the treasurer became the phase III leader, or leader C.
In phase III, the group accepted aid from livestock office of regency. In this period of aid, the
membership increased from 50 to 69 people. The recruitment of new members was not as effective as
was previously the case. In phase II, one of the considerations for recruitment was the position of
farmer or husbandry; however, in phase III, this position was not necessary to become a member.
The goal covered the number that was requested by the aid.
To facilitate the distribution and use of aid, the group divided into four formal subgroups. Each
subgroup had a sub leader that was the opinion leader in the earlier phase. One sub-leader then became the
group leader. He was the phase III leader the sub- leader of subgroup 1. The sub-leader of subgroup 2
was the phase II leader, and the sub-leader of subgroup 3 was the phase IV leader. The sub-leader
of subgroup 4 never became the group leader. The leader of phase I was not involved in group
management because he had another side job as security in the sugar factory.

Figure 6 shows the communication network structure within the group. There were 11 cut-points
in the group: points 9, 14, 17, 22, 28, 29, 41, 50, 64, 66, and 67. This is an important position for an
individual because if they were omitted, the network would be disconnected.
Many free riders are clearly displayed in the figure, such as nodes 31, 32, 37, and 38. They did
not have a strong intention of being a group member. Figure 6 also shows the isolated members, node 55
and 65. They did not have a relationship with any of the other members. They were unskilled and less
motivated members, and none of them owned sheep.
As membership increased, the centrality of the group dispersed. In addition, an internal conflict
arose and made the condition worse than it had previously been. At the end of the group phase, it was
difficult to maintain control, and members were divided into several cliques.
Figure 6 demonstrates that node 9 and 22 had the most reciprocated relationships with the other
members. They were the leader of subgroups. Node 9 was the leader of phase II, and node 22 was the
leader of phase IV. These nodes became the stars. Thus, the number of stars decreased from that in the
earlier phase because of the reduced power of the opinion leader and the increased number of free
riders. These free riders were not active in the group. Nodes 9 and 22 were also clique-bridges that
connected two cliques, clique 2 and clique 3. This indicates that they had relationships with members
who were not in their clique. It also implies that they had a strong influence on the communication flow
within the group. They had the ability to influence the opinion of their clique members and other clique
members.
Figure 6 also shows that only node 8, the sub leader, did not act as the bridge. He was the leader C.
The internal conflict began due to a conflict between the leader of phase I node 1 and the leader of phase
III node 8 concerning new member recruitment.

Fig.3. Communication Network in Phase III after the conflict
The basis of clique formation had shifted. In previous phases, the basis was RT phase I and RT with
expanded members phase II. In phase III, the basis was effectiveness of relationships. Friends who were
not from the same RT were involved in the group. The cliques were the following:
1. Clique 1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 24, 26, 27, 35,
36, 28, 25, 5, 37, 30, 31, 32, 38, 29, 34, 33 2.
Clique 2: 8, 9, 22, 15, 16, 19, 40, 39 3.
Clique 3: 13, 39, 42, 22, 23, 21, 18, 44, 14, 17, 58, 20, 45, 46, 56, 61, 48, 49, 47, 59, 43,
54, 12, 60, 50, 41, 53, 11, 52, 64, 66, 51, 69, 63, 62, 68, 67, 57
The number of cliques was only three,
although there were four formal subgroups in the beginning of phase III. Clique 3 increased in size
after the conflict between leader A and leader C began, as the conflict resulted in the deterioration of
the group. The conflict resulted in the decreased power of both leader C and leader A. Furthermore,
Leader C gradually retreated from the group. Therefore, the clique of leader C dispersed, and most
of its members joined another clique, making a large clique whose leader was node 22. This also happened
in another clique. Node 28 Sub-leader could not maintain his clique after the conflict because of the
free riders; therefore, he and his followers joined another clique, which was led by node 9. The
coordination among the opinion leaders was happened in clique 2 even the leader C node 8
tended to be inactive in the end of phase III.
After the conflict, the collective action implementation decreased. Practically, the action
was selling the feces and gathering grass from the river bank or remote locations. Arisan ended, and
group meetings were rarely held. If a group meeting was held, the meeting leader was node 22, not node
8.
In phase III, the configuration of the network was the least stable. There were genuine
cliques, which refer to clique theory in the introduction, and followers who joined the cliques.
These followers were the free riders who became the inactive members. The example of a genuine clique
is node 9, 7, 3, but they had many followers, thus constituting clique 1.

In Table 5, it seen that in total, population of sheep was continue to decrease. There was a
decreasing of sheep number in high and medium category, then move to add the population in low
category. Furthermore, the number of inactive member was upward. The economic crisis actually
reached its peak in this phase when the raise of fuel has been implemented for the first time, therefore the
member has beaten by the impact of its crisis. Beside the free riders or inactive members who did not spend
the loan to buy the sheep mother, some of active members also use part of their money to fulfill their
needs.
IV.4 Communication Network in Phase IV
The leader of phase IV leader D was prepared by leader C to be the next leader. He was
the youngest among the sub-leaders. Leader C felt that it was the proper time for regeneration in the
group. The other leadership consideration was a native villager of Cangkring hamlet, so there was no
reason to doubt his intention towards the group. Leader C was accused of not having good intentions
in managing the group because he was not a native villager in the hamlet.
Leader C’s proposal of leader D was supported by the opinion leaders.
Leader D, with another sub-leader, revitalized the group. All of the active members were re-
gathered. All of the inactive members, including the free riders, were excluded from the group.
In phase IV, there was no new innovation in the
group’s collective action. The action continued from the previous phase, such as planting grass and
selling feces. They accepted aid from the village government for sheep fattening with the same system
as that in phase I. The project was completed in 2010.
Figure 7 displays that three stars existed in the network. They were nodes 9, 22, and 28.
Although node 28 experienced a decrease in power in phase III, he became a star again in phase IV due to
the group revitalization. The free riders were excluded from the group.

Fig 4. Communication Network in Phase IV
There was one bridge in the network: node 28. He was the clique-bridge that connected clique 3
with cliques 1 and 2. There were three cliques in phase IV. Clique 1 was the largest, as it continued
from the previous phase. There was also one clique that became smaller because it spread into two
cliques, that is, the clique with the leader node 9 and the clique with the leader node 28. The cliques were
the following:
1. Clique 1: 22, 19, 23, 15, 16, 17, 21, 18, 20,
58, 67, 59, 51, 14, 11, 50, 12, 51, 68, 53, 41 2.
Clique 2: 1, 2, 3, 7, 9 3.
Clique 3: 28, 10, 26, 5, 27, 30, 37, 25, 29 The basis of clique formation was the same
as that in phase III: the effectiveness of relationships. Clique 2 became smaller than it had previously been.
After the conflict and the group revitalization, the power of leaders A and B decreased. In contrast, the
power of leader D increased from the end of phase III. In phase IV, there were also close relationships
among the sub-leaders or opinion leaders, who created a clique. These nodes were 9, 22 and 28.
Centrality Degree of Network in the Group
The two main explanations of the results are the communication network pattern and the centrality
degree of the network in each phase because the group underwent four phases in its lifetime. The
centrality degree is important in describing the effectiveness of the network chain within the group.

ality Degre
e 34.73

Source: Primary data, 2011 Table 3 shows that the centrality degree
fluctuated in value. In phase I, the centrality degree value was the highest of all of the phases at 34.73.
This indicates that there was no absolute power in the group. There were also some opinion leaders in the
group besides the group leader leader A; however, the group leader coordinated with the opinion
leaders.
281
The centrality degree value decreased in phase II due to the increased number of members
demanded by the aid. However, the appearance of the cut-points
bridge lines
maintained the
communication flow between the leaders and the members.
The centrality degree continued to decrease in phase III, when the membership continued to
increase. It was deteriorated by the conflict between leader A leader of phase I and leader C leader of
phase III. However, when the research was conducted, the followers of these leaders decreased
from the earlier phase. Leader C and leader A reduced their group activity. Thus, the power of
another sub leader controlled the network within the group.
The reduction of membership to revitalize the group increased the centrality degree in phase IV.
Although the centrality value was smaller than that in phase I, it was greater than that in phase II and III,
when the leader controlled the coordination within the group. Although there was a change in the basis
of clique communication network structure from RT to friendship or relative clearly shown by phase I and
phase IV as the climax, the centrality degree was high due to unity of the group. It was no matter what
of the basis of clique formation.
CONCLUSION
In each phase, the communication network pattern within the group changed. The pattern
changed from a network without bridges, and then connected through many bridges, to a network with
only one bridge in the last phase. The existence of bridges in the communication network within the
group was very important. The nodes that had bridges were the cut-points. If they did not remain in the
group, the network would have been broken. Some of the cut-points were the sub-group leaders who later
became the group leader. They were an important key to delivering the group from phase II to phase III and
phase IV.
The position of the cut-point was also important to deliver the information from the leader
to the members especially, when the number increased. As the membership increased, the
centrality in network decreased. The centrality value decreased from phase I to phase III, and then rose
again in phase IV, when membership was reduced. In term of sheep ownership, the population of sheep
which owned by the star has experienced the fluctuation. Peak performance of sheep population
has reached in phase I, then decreased and reached peak declining in phase III. It was upward again in
phase IV. There is a reciprocal relationship between
the network and collective action. The network changed in every phase, especially since phase II
until phase IV. The network often changed to adjust to the program and make the program easier to
conduct. In contrast, some collective action was carried out through adjustments in the existing
network. In relation with network basis, the value of centrality degree was not affected because the main
point of centrality degree is unity, not the basis of the network.
