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
THE BALANCED SCORECARD: MAKSIMALISASI EMPAT PERSPEKTIF STRATEGIS ASURANSI SYARIAH
Full text linkPast research on the application of performance appraisal using the balanced scorecard (BSC) has been widely applied in conventional and Islamic financial institutions, while for non-bank financial institutions tend to be rare. This study aims to assess performance using the BSC method of performance appraisal of Islamic financial institutions in the non-bank PT. Asuransi Takaful Umum Padang Branch. During this time, PT. Asuransi Takaful Umum Padang Branch using the system GPA (Grade Point Average) in performance assessment. GPA rated yet positioned to assess the overall performance of the organization because it is more focused on the internal side of the employees. BSC is a measurement tool that is not only viewed from the financial side, but overall a good non-financial, internal, and external companies. This research uses triangulation concurrent study the research method that combines qualitative and quantitative research methods in a balanced way. The conclusion from this study is that the performance of PT. Asuransi Takaful Umum Padang Branch can be said to be very good with a total score of 89.25% votes. With the weight of the financial perspective in the company's financial condition can be said to be very good with a score of 92.23%, the customer perspective in the position to settle with a score of 76.42% votes, internal business process perspective are in very good condition, whereby this perspective provides assessment score of 100%, as well as the learning and growth perspective in very good condition with a total score of votes obtained by 89.41%
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
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
Manajemen Sumber Daya Manusia Islam: Sejarah, Nilai, dan Benturan
Full text linkHuman resource management (HRM) in Western perspectives continue to be questioned in the East, especially from Islamic academics. There is hope to implement religious teachings in the organizational sphere. Generally, this paper discusses issues in Islamic HRM, questioning the extent to which Islam (text and context) governs people in organizations. Putting forward the literature sourced from the pages of Ebsco and Emerald using the keywords "Islamic Human Resources Management." Found 96 journals, but only 21 contained the themes we meant. Then read intensively, make mapping, determine the main ideas of each journal, and group ideas based on themes. These themes were discussed: the internalization of Islam in HRM, Islamic values in HRM, developments in Muslim countries, and the challenges of Islamic HRM. This paper found religion entered the organizational realm not far after the discussion of industrial psychology was discussed. Using framework of 'the management theory jungle', the role of religion in organizations can be explained. HRM is a Western product that emerged after the industrial revolution. The argument positions Islam as a regulator of halal-haram restrictions on human activities in the organization. Furthermore, the cultural phenomenon above religion is also a hot issue. Managers know, understand, and acknowledge the goodness of Islam, but not yet for practice. So far, the expert study of Islamic HRM is still merely exploring values based on four sources, namely the Qur'an, Hadith, Ijma ', and Qiyash. Need best practice research, so that later it will be able to bring up the Islamic HRM curriculum
