    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    “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

    Full text link
    We 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

    We 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

    We 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

    Dampak Penerapan Sanksi Administrasi Pajak Penghasilan (PPh) Pasal 21 Bagi Peningkatan Kepatuhan Pajak di Kantor Pelayanan Pajak Pratama Medan Timur Tahun 2017-2019

    In Law Number 36 Year 2008, income tax (PPh) is a tax imposed on individuals and entities based on the amount of income received for one year. As is well known, one of the biggest potential for tax revenue in Indonesia is in the income tax sector. So it is necessary to increase revenue in this sector including by applying administrative sanctions. In this case, the type of data that is likely to be used is secondary data due to the Covid-19 epidemic, which is the source of data obtained from related agencies such as the East Medan Pratama tax service office in the form of quantitative data. The author also collects data from electronic books (e-books), sites that contain information about tax administration sanctions and previous year's final assignments related to income tax administration sanctions. The results of this study show that the application of administrative sanctions at KPP Pratama Medan Timur is quite good, although there has been an increase in the number of taxpayers who are subject to administrative sanctions in 2018, but in 2019 there has been a decrease compared to the previous year. If in terms of tax revenue there is a decline in 2019, from these data the authors see the possibility that the East Medan KPP Pratama should further improve the quality of taxpayer supervision of Article 21 of Income Tax so that revenues can increase in the following years.Dalam Undang-Undang UU Nomor 36 Tahun 2008 pajak penghasilan (PPh) adalah pajak yang dikenakan terhadap orang pribadi maupun badan berdasarkan jumlah penghasilan yang diterima selama satu tahun. Seperti yang diketahui salah satu potensi terbesar penerimaan pajak di indonesia berada di sektor pajak penghasilan. Sehingga diperlukan peningkatan penerimaan di sektor ini termasuk dengan cara menerapkan sanksi administrasi. Dalam hal ini jenis data yang kemungkinan dipakai adalah data sekunder karena adanya pademi covid-19, yaitu sumber data yang didapat dari instansi terkait seperti kantor pelayanan pajak pratama medan timur yang berupa data-data kuantitatif. penulis juga mengumpulkan data dari buku elektronik (e-book), situs-situs yang memuat informasi seputar sanksi administrasi perpajakan serta tugas akhir tahun sebelumnya yang berkaitan dengan sanksi administrasi pajak penghasilan. Hasil dari penilitian ini menunjukan bahwa penerapan sanksi administrai di KPP pratama medan timur sudah cukup baik, walaupun terjadi peningkatan jumlah wajib pajak yang terkena sanksi administrasi pada tahun 2018, akan tetapi di tahun 2019 terjadi penurunan dibanding tahun sebelumnya. Kalau dari sisi penerimaan pajak justru terjadi penurunan di tahun 2019, dari data tersebut penulis melihat kemungkinan sebaiknya KPP Pratama Medan Timur lebih meningkatkan kualitas pengawasan wajib pajak terhadap PPh pasal 21 agar penerimaan yang di dapat akan meningkat di tahun-tahun berikutnya.87 HalamanKertas Karya Diplom

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
