Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
STRATEGI PENGUATAN DEMOKRASI AGONISTIK PADA BADAN EKSEKUTIF MAHASISWA DALAM PERSPEKTIF PENDIDIKAN KEWARGANEGARAAN (STUDI PADA BEM FKIP UNS)
No full textPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) Mendeskripsikan strategi untuk menguatkan demokrasi agonistik mahasiswa dalam lingkungan BEM FKIP UNS; (2) Mendeskripsikan hasil dari penguatan demokrasi agonistik terhadap kualitas demokrasi di lingkungan BEM FKIP UNS dalam perspektif Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan wawancara mendalam, observasi, serta analisis dokumen. Pengambilan subjek penelitian menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Lokasi penelitian pada BEM FKIP UNS Kabinet Alterasi 2023. Pengujian validitas data menggunakan triangulasi sumber dan triangulasi metode. Hasil penelitian yang didapatkan adalah sebagai berikut. Pertama, BEM FKIP UNS melaksanakan penguatan demokrasi agonistik melalui kegiatan yang diselenggarakan oleh organisasi tersebut seperti Rapat Harian Terbatas (RHT), pembinaan di masing-masing kementerian, LKMM-D, dan kegiatan kepanitiaan, bentuk penguatan yang dilakukan adalah dengan menciptakan kontestasi dan perdebatan yang sehat, menciptakan kebebasan dan kesetaraan dalam berpendapat, serta adanya kepastian terhadap pluralisme. Kedua, hasil dari penguatan demokrasi agonistik terhadap kualitas demokrasi di lingkungan BEM FKIP UNS yaitu dapat meningkatkan partisipasi aktif dari anggota dan pengurus organisasi, menumbuhkan kemampuan untuk mengelola konflik secara melembaga, dan mampu bersikap terbuka terhadap adanya perbedaan dan menjunjung tinggi nilai toleransi dimana hal ini menunjukkan adanya keterampilan kewarganegaran dan sikap kewarganegaraan dalam diri anggota dan pengurus BEM FKIP UNS
HUBUNGAN KEMAMPUAN SISWA DALAM MENGIDENTIFIKASI KEBERAGAMAN SUKU, AGAMA, RAS, DAN ANTARGOLONGAN DALAM BINGKAI BHINNEKA TUNGGAL IKA DENGAN SIKAP MENGHARGAI KEBERAGAMAN SUKU, AGAMA, RAS, DAN ANTARGOLONGAN (STUDI SISWA KELAS VII SMP NEGERI 4 SURAKARTA)
Full text linkThe purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between students' ability in identifying ethnic, religious, racial and intergroup diversity in the frame of Unity in Diversity with an attitude of respect for ethnic, religious, racial and intergroup diversity in class VII students of Surakarta State Junior High School 4.This research is quantitative research. The method used is descriptive correlational statistics. Subjects in this study were class VII students of SMP Negeri 4 Surakarta using simple random sampling technique. Data collection techniques used are test and questionnaire instruments. Validity test used uses the product moment formula. Reliability testing uses the Spearman Brown formula to test the X variable, and the Cronbach Alpha formula to test the Y variable. Data analysis uses a simple correlation technique.The results in this study are that there is a positive and significant relationship between students' ability to identify ethnic, religious, racial and intergroup diversity in the frame of Unity in Diversity with an attitude of respect for ethnic, religious, racial and intergroup diversity. A positive relationship between variable X and variable Y is indicated by the value of r count = 0.889> r table = 0.244. The meaning of the relationship between variable X and variable Y is significant indicated by the value of t count = 15, 28> t table1.27. Keywords: identifying diversity, respect
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
