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
RASI BINTANG DALAM PENENTUAN ARAH MATA ANGIN PERSPEKTIF ILMU FALAK
Get PDFThe main problems in this research are the theory of star constellations, how to determine the direction of the compass with the constellations, and the view of astronomy about the constellations as a guide to the cardinal directions. This type of research is categorized into the type of library research (library research) where the data that is considered relevant in the object of this research is analyzed in depth by the author and then set forth in the form of discussion in answering the problem. In searching for data the author uses data collection methods namely documentation techniques. The results of this study indicate that the constellations that can be used in determining the cardinal directions are the Ursa Major constellation to determine the north direction, the Crux constellation to determine the south direction, the Orion constellation to determine the west direction and the Scorpio constellation to determine the southeast direction. In the view of astronomy that can be used in determining the direction of Qibla, namely the constellation Ursa Major and the constellation Orion. It is hoped that all members of Falakiyah can conduct research on determining the direction of the compass using the constellations. In applying the constellation as one of the methods in determining the cardinal directions, it is necessary to carry out more in-depth research related to the level of accuracy of cardinal directions using star constellations.
Pokok permasalahan dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana teori rasi bintang, cara menentukan arah mata angin dengan rasi bintang, dan pandangan Ilmu Falak tentang rasi bintang sebagai petunjuk arah mata angin. Jenis penelitian ini dikategorikan kedalam jenis penelitian kepustakaan (library research) dimana penulis menganalisis secara menyeluruh data-data yang dianggap relevan dengan pokok bahasan penelitian ini dan kemudian disajikan jawaban atas masalah tersebut dalam bentuk pembahasan. Penulis menggunakan metode pengumpulan data, yaitu teknik dokumentasi untuk mencari data. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa rasi bintang yang dapat digunakan dalam penentuan arah mata angin yaitu rasi bintang ursa major untuk menentukan arah utara, rasi bintang crux untuk menentukan arah selatan, rasi bintang orion untuk menentukan arah barat dan rasi bintang scorpio untuk menentukan arah tenggara. Dalam pandangan Ilmu Falak yang dapat digunakan dalam penentuan arah kiblat yaitu rasi bintang ursa major dan rasi bintang orion. Diharapkan seluruh insan Falakiyah dapat melakukan penelitian penentuan arah mata angin menggunakan rasi bintang. Dalam penerapan rasi bintang sebagai salah satu metode dalam penentuan arah mata angin maka perlu untuk dilakukan penelitian lebih mendalam terkait dengan tingkat keakurasian arah mata angin dengan menggunakan rasi bintang
Akurasi Arah Kiblat Kuburan Perspektif Ilmu Falak di Desa Batulappa Kecamatan Patimpeng Kabupaten Bone: Akurasi Arah Kiblat Kuburan Perspektif Ilmu Falak di Desa Batulappa Kecamatan Patimpeng Kabupaten Bone
No full textQibla direction is identical to the implementation of worship, both when they want to perform prayers and bury or bury the body. A person can be said to be facing the Qiblah if all his limbs are facing towards the Ka’bah which is the benchmark for Muslims in worship. The current case is that it turns out that in Batulappa Village, Patimpeng District, Bone Regency, grave diggers only follow the position of pre-existing graves and they rely on an approximate method by looking at the position of the sun setting from East to West, so that is the direction of Qibla and the position of the graves in the village. irregular. This is due to the lack of understanding of the people who know about determining the actual direction of the Qibla of the grave. Therefore, the researcher will go directly to the field to check the Qibla direction of the cemetery in Batulappa Village, Patimpeng District, Bone Regency by using a special stick, Qibla arc (as a tool) and manual calculations based on the latitude and longitude of an area.
Based on the measurement method carried out by researchers in determining the Qibla direction directly in the field using tools such as the istiwa' stick, the Qibla arc and the Qibla direction reckoning method at the three burial places, namely the Kallecce Grave, Bulu Kacce Grave, and the Bilalalng Bulu Grave. The results found by researchers at three locations at the cemetery were that in the Kallecce grave a deviation of 2º-22º was found, in the Bulu Kacce grave a deviation of 3º-7º, while the deviation was found in the Bulu Bilalang grave 7º-11º.Arah kiblat identik dengan pelaksanaan ibadah, baik ketika hendak melaksanakan Salat dan menguburkan atau memakamkan jenazah. Seseorang bisa dikatakan menghadap ke arah kiblat jika seluruh anggota tubuhnya menghadap ke arah Ka’bah yang menjadi patokan umat Islam dalam beribadah. Perkara saat ini bahwa ternyata di Desa Batulappa Kecamatan Patimpeng Kabuapten Bone penggali kubur hanya mengikuti posisi kuburan yang sudah ada sebelumnya dan mereka berpatokan pad metode perkiraan dengan melihat posisi terbenamnya matahari dari arah Timurk ke Barat maka itulah arah kiblat dan kuburan yang ada di Desa tersebut posisinya tidak beraturan. Hal ini terjadi kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat yang mengetahui tentang penentuan arah kiblat kuburan yang sesungguhnya. Oleh karena itu, peneliti akan terjung langsung ke lapangan untuk mengecek arah kiblat arah kiblat kuburan di Desa Batulappa Kecamatan Patimpeng Kabuapaten Bone dengan menggunanakan tongkat istiwa’, busur kiblat (sebagai alat bantu) dan perhitungam manuals berdasarkan pada lintang dan bujur suatu daerah.
Berdasarkan metode pengukuran yang dilakukan oleh peneliti dalam menentukan arah kiblat secara lanngsung dilapangan dengan menggunakan alat seperti tongkat istiwa’, bususr kiblat dan metode hisab arah kiblat pada ketiga tempat pemakaman yaitu Kuburan Kallecce, Kuburan Bulu Kacce, dan Kuburan Bulu Bilalalng. Hasil yang ditemukan oleh peneliti pada tiga titik lokasi pada pemakaman tersebut ialah di kuburan Kallecce di temukan kemelecenggan 2º-22º, di kuburan Bulu Kacce ditemukan Kemelencengan 3º-7º, sedangkan fakta kemelencengan yang ditemukan di kuburan Bulu Bilalang 7º-11º
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
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
