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
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
PENGEMBANGAN PERANGKAT PEMBELAJARAN MATEMATIKA DENGAN LEARNING CYCLE 5E MODEL LORSCBACH KELAS V SEKOLAH DASAR
No full textLearning tools that are used in the schools are still not optimal in facilitating the development of learners. The purpose of this study is to produce a device with a math learning 5E learning cycle model of Lorschbach valid, practical, and effective. This type of research is the development of research. The model used is a model development Plomp. The results showed that the study of mathematics by 5E learning cycle models developed Lorschbach have valid criteria in terms of content and construct. Practical learning device has been good in terms of enforceability, ease, and the time required. Learning device has also been effective in terms of activity and learning outcomes of students with an average value of learners activity increased and the level of mastery learning outcomes. This means learning devices effective in improving learning outcomes of students. Based on these results it can be concluded that the study of mathematics by 5E learning cycle Lorschbach models developed in the study of mathematics in class V SD can be declared valid, practical, and effective.Keywords: Learning tools, math, learning 5E learning cycle model of Lorschbach</jats:p
MODEL INTERNALISASI NILAI KARAKTER DISIPLIN UNTUK MENUMBUHKAN BUDAYA POSITIF DI LINGKUNGAN SEKOLAH
Get PDFSekolah sebagai sebuah komunitas mempunyai tugas utama dalam program penguatan pendidikan karakter yang gencar digaungkan oleh pemerintah sebagai sebuah produk kebijakan. Beberapa penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam pelaksanaanya masih dihadapkan pada persoalan masih lemahnya kemampuan sekolah dalam pembangunan karakter disiplin siswa padahal aturan dan konsepnya telah dibuat sekolah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: 1) mendeskripsikan model empiris internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin untuk menumbuhkan budaya positif di lingkungan sekolah, 2) mendeskripsikan rumusan konseptual model internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin untuk menumbuhkan budaya positif di lingkungan sekolah, dan 3) mendeskripsikan efektivitas model internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin untuk menumbuhkan budaya positif di lingkungan sekolah. Dengan prosedur pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif, peneliti melakukan proses penelitian dengan metode Research and Development (R&D). Pada tahap penelitian, teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan angket pengetahuan dan sikap siswa, observasi, wawancara, dan studi dokumen, kemudian mengembangkan angket internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin. Hasil penelitian menemukan dan mengkonstruk realitas model empiris pelaksanaan karakter disiplin di sekolah, merancang rumusan konseptual model hipotetik internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin dengan indikator disiplin waktu, disiplin perilaku, disiplin menaati aturan dan disiplin akademik melalui budaya positif, keyakinan dan kontrol guru, serta menguji efektivitas model internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin untuk menumbuhkan budaya positif di lingkungan sekolah. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian menunjukkan skor Relative Autonomy Index (RAI) tertinggi 4.60 s.d. 6.60, dimana proses internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin dalam diri siswa meningkat secara positif dari motivasi terkontrol berubah menjadi motivasi otonom. Atas dasar itu, model internalisasi nilai karakter disiplin dapat menjadi rekomendasi untuk diterapkan di sekolah.
Schools as a community have the main task in strengthening character education programs that are intensively echoed by the government as a policy product. Several studies show that in its implementation, it is still faced with the problem of still weak school ability in building student discipline character even though the rules and concepts have been made by the school. This study aims to: 1) describe the empirical model of internalizing disciplinary character values to foster a positive culture in the school environment, 2) describe the conceptual formulation of the internalization model of disciplinary character values to foster a positive culture in the school environment, and 3) describe the effectiveness of the internalization model of disciplinary character values to foster a positive culture in the school environment. With qualitative and quantitative approach procedures, researchers carry out the research process with Research and development (R&D) methods. At the research stage, data collection techniques use questionnaires of students' knowledge and attitudes, observation, interviews, and document studies, then develop questionnaires internalizing disciplinary character values. The results of the study found and constructed the reality of the empirical model of the implementation of disciplinary character in schools, designed a conceptual formulation of a hypothetical model of internalizing disciplinary character values with indicators of time discipline, behavioral discipline, discipline obeying rules, and academic discipline through positive culture, teacher beliefs, and control, and tested the effectiveness of the internalization model of disciplinary character values to foster a positive culture in the school environment. Based on the test results, it shows the highest Relative Autonomy Index (RAI) score of 4.60 to 6.60, where the process of internalizing the value of discipline character in students increases positively from controlled motivation to autonomous motivation. On that basis, the model of internalization of disciplinary character values can be a recommendation to be applied in schools
