Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
Upaya Pusat Rehabilitasi Harapan Jaya Pematang Siantar Terhadap Pemberdayaan Para Penyandang Cacat Tubuh
No full textManusia merupakan salah satu sumber daya yang sangat penting dalam
pembangunan nasional. Penyandang cacat juga merupakan potensi yang sangat
perlu diperhatikan, dalam hal ini penyandangcacattubuh yang sangat penting dan
harus mendapat perhatian sepenuhnya, agar dikemudian hari penyandang cacat
mampu menjadi manusia yang terampil, mandiri, berakhlak tinggi dan warga
Negara yang bertanggung jawab. Maka sangatlah perlu penyandang cacat
mendapat pembinaan agar dapat berkembang secara wajar dalam proses
kemandiriannya. Sehingga penyandang cacat dapat dapat mengembangkan
kemampuannya seluas mungkin dan penyandang cacat fisik dapat memenuhi
kebutuhan - kebutuhan yang beranekaragam sesuai dengan kemampuannya bagi
diri dan keluarganya. Penelitian ini mencoba menggambarkan, menjelaskan
bagaimana upaya dalam pembinaan dan peningkatan keterampilan untuk
kemandirian para penyandang cacat fisik di Pusat Rehabilitasi Harapan Jaya
(PRHJ) Pematang Siantar.
Pada penelitian ini metode yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif
dengan analisis secara kualitatif yaitu data akan di sajikan secara uraian naratif
tanpa melalui uji statistik. Lokasi penelitian yang diambil adalah Pusat
Rehabilitasi Harapan Jaya yang bertempat di jl.Makadame raya, Desa laras II,
Perumnas Km VI Pematang siantar, Desa laras II, Kecamatan Siantar, Kabupaten
Simalungun. dalam melakukan pengumpulan data penulis menggunakan 3 teknik
pengumpulan data yaitu melalui observasi kelapangan, wawancara, dan
dokumentasi. Teori - teori yang mendukung penelitian ini antara lain adalah teori
mengenai pelayanan sosial, teori pelayanan pendidikan bagi penyandang cacat
juga teori usaha kesejahteraan sosial. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pusat
rehabilitasi harapan jaya dapat membina penyandang cacat fisik dengan baik,
yang disesuaikan dengan keadaan lembaga dan kemampuan klien dan hasil itu
juga tercermin dari jawaban-jawaban klien dari semua pertanyaan wawancara
dimana umumnya penyandang cacat menanggapi dengan baik program - program
yang diberikan pusat rehabilitasi harapan jaya pada penyandang cacat seperti
partisipasi penyandang cacat dalam mengikuti pendidikan keterampilan,
keyakinan akan kegunaan keterampilan, dan rasa optimis penyandang cacat akan
masa depan penyandang cacat tersebut
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
Pengaruh Penambahan Maltodekstrin Dan Lama Pengeringan Terhadap Yoghurt Biji Nangka (Artocarpus Heterophylus Lamk.)
No full textPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui
pengaruh penambahan maltodekstrin dan lama pengeringan terhadap pembuatan
yoghurt biji nangka.
Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) faktorial dengan (2)
dua ulangan. Faktor I adalah maltodekstrin dengan sandi (M) yang terdiri atas 4 taraf
yaitu : M1 = 5 %, M2 = 10 %, M3 = 15 %, M4 = 20 %. Faktor II adalah lama pengeringan
dengan sandi (L) yang terdiri atas 4 taraf yaitu : L1 = 3 jam, L2 = 4 jam, L3 = 5 jam, L4 = 6
jam. Parameter yang diamati meliputi kadar protein, total mikroba, total asam, kadar
air, rasa
Hasil analisa secara statistik pada masing-masing parameter memberikan
kesimpulan sebagai berikut :
Kadar Protein
Maltodekstrin memberikan pengaruh berbeda sangat nyata (p < 0,01)
terhadap kadar protein. Kadar protein tertinggi terdapat pada perlakuan M4 yaitu
sebesar 4,960 % dan kadar protein terendah terdapat pada perlakuan M1 yaitu
2,935 %. Lama pengeringan memberikan pengaruh berbeda sangat nyata (p<0,01)
terhadap kadar protein. Kadar protein tertinggi terdapat pada perlakuan L4 yaitu
sebesar 4,635 % dan kadar proteinn terendah terdapat pada perlakuan L1 yaitu
2,678 %. Pengaruh interaksi antara maltodekstrin dan lama pengeringan
memberikan pengaruh berbeda tidak nyata (p > 0,05) terhadap kadar protein
