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
Catalan Identity and Paradiplomacy Strategy in Catalonia’s Independence Movement
Get PDFThis article seeks to analyse how Catalan identity, within the context of its conflict with the Spanish government, contributes to its foreign relations with the global public through paradiplomacy. This article uses qualitative research method with literature study. It finds that Catalonia, as one of Spain’s autonomous regions, have a distinct history, language, and culture from other Spanish regions. To protect their identity, there have been an emergence of movement for greater Catalan autonomy, even independence. This conflict reached climax on 1 October 2017 when the Catalan government initiated an independence referendum amongst Catalan people, with the majority voted for independence from Spain. Since then, the Catalan independence movement has faced many changes until now, with one of the moves done by Catalonia to seek support from global public through their paradiplomacy. As such, it is worth noting how paradiplomacy done by the Catalan government was an effort to protect the existence of their identity, which increases the complication and dynamics of Catalan and Spanish governments’ internal conflict. Findings from this study may show important implications for the resolution of similar internal conflicts, especially those involving identity and paradiplomacy
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
Upaya Kerja Sama Multilateral Indonesia dalam Menanggapi Kebijakan Red Ii Uni Eropa
Get PDFIndonesia has the largest palm oil plantation industry and is the world's largest producer of palm oil. Palm oil commodities originating from Indonesia are exported to almost all continents with the highest consumers found in the Asian continent and the European Union region. The European Union as one of the major consumers of Indonesian palm oil in 2018 revised its policy to Renewable Energy Directive II (RED II) which reaped negative sentiment towards the Indonesian palm oil industry. Then, the Government of Indonesia responded to these negative issues through several diplomatic efforts, such as multilateral cooperation. This article discusses Indonesia's trade diplomacy activities to the European Union using multilateral cooperation. This research uses qualitative research methods with the concept of economic diplomacy The data used in this study was obtained using several data collection techniques, such as literature studies. These data are analyzed and discussed using the framework of economic diplomacy concepts to explain the economic diplomacy activities carried out by Indonesia to the European Union on its palm oil commodities by joining multilateral cooperation. The result of this study is that Indonesia in making efforts to maintain its palm oil follows several bilateral and multilateral cooperations such as its participation in CPOPC
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
Respon Indonesia Terhadap Putusan World Trade Organization dalam Kasus Pelarangan Ekspor Nikel
Get PDFOrganisasi internasional merujuk pada fungsi dan perannya yaitu untuk mengatur dan menjadi pihak yang berperan dalam menyikapi perdebatan global. Sebagai organisasi perdagangan global, world trade organization (WTO) memainkan peran penting dalam menentukan perdebatan perdagangan global. Pembentukan Panel, Prosedur Panel, Adopsi Laporan Panel, Review Banding, dan Implementasi adalah semua tahapan proses WTO yang dapat digunakan untuk menyelesaikan sengketa perdagangan internasional. Artikel ini akan mengkaji tugas WTO dalam menyelesaikan masalah sengketa perdagangan antara Indonesia dan Uni Eropa sehubungan dengan pelarangan ekspor nikel. Artikel ini akan membahas fenomena tersebut dan memberikan penjelasan tentang proses dan fenomena tersebut dengan menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif. Studi ini mengungkapkan bahwa WTO sebagai organisasi perdagangan internasional belum berhasil menyelesaikan sengketa pelarangan ekspor nikel antara Indonesia dan Uni Eropa. Sementara Indonesia dengan tegas menyatakan penolakan dan mengajukan banding ke badan banding WTO atas dasar putusan yang dikeluarkan oleh WTO
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
