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
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
PENGARUH PEMILU SERENTAK TERHADAP RETURN SAHAM DI INDONESIA (Studi Kasus Saham LQ-45 di Bursa Efek Indonesia)
Full text linkPemilu adalah salah satu peristiwa politik yang bisa mempengaruhi perekonomian suatu negara, terlebih pemilu tersebut dilaksanakan secara serentak. Pasar modal sebagai salah satu insrumen ekonomi tidak terlepas dari pengaruh lingkungan, baik lingkungan ekonomi maupun lingkungan non-ekonomi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis reaksi pasar modal terhadap peristiwa anomali pasar di Indonesia, dalam hal ini Pemilu serentak (Presiden dan Legislatif) tahun 2019. Reaksi pasar saham diukur dengan abnormal return dan volume aktivitas perdagangan saham. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah perusahaan yang sahamnya tercatat dalam LQ-45. Penelitian ini menggunakan even study (studi peristiwa). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada reaksi investor di mana 10 hari sebelum dan 10 hari sesudah 17 April 2019 pemilu serentak. Kondisi ini menunjukkan adanya optimisme investor bahwa pemilu akan diadakan pada 17 April 2019. Hal yang serupa dengan volume rata-rata perdagangan saham sebelum dan sesudah pemilu serentak 17 April 2019 juga mengalami peningkatan
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
Overview of the NTCIR-17 UFO Task
Full text linkThe goal of the NTCIR-17 UFO task is to develop techniques for extracting structured information from tabular data and documents, focusing on annual securities reports. The Non-Financial Objects in Financial Reports (UFO) task consists of two subtasks: table data extraction (TDE) and text-to-table relationship extraction (TTRE). The TDE subtask, for understanding the structure of tables in annual securities reports, classifies each cell into one of four classes. The TTRE subtask is for linking the values of the tables with a relevant sentence in the text. We present the data used for and the results of the formal run for these subtasks.conference pape
The Social Desirability Scale-17 (SDS-17): Convergent validity, discriminant validity, and relationship with age
Full text linkFour studies are presented investigating the convergent validity, discriminant validity, and relationship with age of the Social Desirability Scale-17 (SDS-17). As to convergent validity, SDS-17 scores showed correlations between .52 and .85 with other measures of social desirability (Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Lie Scale, Sets of Four Scale, Marlowe-Crowne Scale). Moreover, scores were highly sensitive to social-desirability-provoking instructions (job-application instruction). Finally, with respect to the Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding, SDS-17 scores showed a unique correlation with impression management, but not with self-deception. As to discriminant validity, SDS-17 scores showed nonsignificant correlations with neuroticism, extraversion, psychoticism, and openness to experience, whereas there was some overlap with agreeableness and conscientiousness. With respect to relationship with age, the SDS-17 was administered in a sample stratified for age, with age ranging from 18 to 89 years. In all but the oldest age group, the SDS-17 showed substantial correlations with the Marlowe-Crowne Scale. The influence of age (cohort) on mean scores, however, was significantly smaller for the SDS-17 than for the Marlowe-Crowne Scale. In sum, results indicate that the SDS-17 is a reliable and valid measure of social desirability, suitable for adults of 18 to 80 years of age
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
