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

Pengaruh Information Sharing, Network Management dan Inventory Management Terhadap Strategic Performance Pada Industri Fashion UMKM
No full textIndustri fashion menjadi salah satu industri yang perkembangannya di prioritaskan oleh pemerintah karena mampu memberikan kontribusi yang besar terhadap perekonomian Indonesia. Fenomena ini mendorong pemerintah menetapkan target dengan menjadikan Indonesia sebagai modest fashion tren global. Pencapaian ini dapat diraih melalui kontribusi UMKM dengan menerapkan rantai pasok yang efektif dan efisien dari hulu ke hilir. Penelitian ini akan menjelaskan bagaimana hasil penerapan beberapa variabel yaitu variabel information sharing, network management dan inventory management. Dimana ketiga variabel tersebut jika dikelola dengan baik maka dapat meningkatkan kinerja perusahaan di industri fashion UMKM. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk menguji pengaruh antar variabel serta memberikan rekomendasi hasil penelitian pada pelaku UMKM fashion guna meningkatkan kinerja perusahaan dari sisi keuangan dan pemasaran. Objek penelitian ini adalah pelaku industri fashion UMKM dengan melakukan teknik convinience sampling kepada 50 pelaku UMKM fashion. Metode penelitian ini merupakan kuantitatif dengan alat uji menggunakan SEM (Structural Equation Modelling) berbasis variance atau SEM-PLS. Hasil penelitian dari pengembangan hipotesis menunjukan bahwa Information Sharing dan inventory management berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Operational Performance sedangkan Network Management tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Operational dan Operational Performance berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Strategic Performance. Dari hasil penelitian didapatkan beberapa rekomendasi yang dapat diterapkan oleh pelaku UMKM fashion seperti secara terus-menerus memperkuat inisiatif berbagi informasi, meningkatkan manajemen inventaris, dan aktif mengikuti program sosialisasi yang diselenggarakan pemerintah guna meningkatkan kinerja perusahaan, menciptakan daya saing yang lebih kuat, dan merangsang pertumbuhan bisnis.
=================================================================================================================================
The fashion industry is prioritized by the Indonesian government due to its potential to significantly contribute to the country's economy. This emphasis has prompted the government to set ambitious targets, aiming to position Indonesia as a global leader in the modest fashion trend. To attain this goal, the government recognizes the crucial role of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the fashion sector. The key strategy involves implementing effective and efficient supply chains, spanning from upstream to downstream. This study aims to elucidate how the application of specific variables, namely information sharing, network management, and inventory management, can impact the performance of companies in the MSME fashion industry. Proper management of these variables is anticipated to enhance the overall performance of these businesses, both financially and in terms of marketing. The research will explore the relationships between these variables and provide valuable recommendations for MSME fashion players to bolster their competitiveness and foster business growth. The research focuses on MSME fashion industry players, with a sample size of 50 participants selected through convenience sampling techniques. The quantitative research method employed utilizes variance-based Structural Equation Modelling (SEM-PLS) for testing hypotheses. The initial hypothesis development suggests that information sharing and inventory management significantly effect operational performance. However, network management does not demonstrate a significant effect on operational performance. Additionally, operational performance is found to significantly affect strategic performance. Based on the study's findings, several recommendations can be proposed for MSME players in the fashion industry such as consistently reinforcing information-sharing initiatives, enhancing inventory management, and actively participating in government-organized socialization programs to enhance company performance, foster stronger competitiveness, and stimulate business growth
