Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
Strategi peningkatan daya saing industri ban indonesia di pasar internasional
Full text linkNatural rubber is one of mainstay commodities in Indonesia. Indonesia,
Thailand, and Malaysia are world's major natural rubber producers. One of the
rubber-based products is tire that can absorb 70% to 80% of total world natural
rubber production. Currently, Indonesia can produce tire in domestic. Indonesia
tire product mostly for export market. It makes tire as the largest contributor to get
foreign exchange reserve in the rubber-based sector. The main countries for
Indonesia to export tire products are United States, Japan, Philippines, Malaysia,
Australia, Europe and Middle East Countries. In the global market, Indonesia
contributes only 2.28% of world tire export. The growth of Indonesia tire export
share is relatively stagnant, compared to China and Thailand. China tire export
development is quite rapid, and become the largest tire exporter in the world.
Thailand export share also increase significantly.
Based on these conditions, the aims of this stury are to analyze the
development of Indonesia tire product competitiveness compared to other main
competitor countries, to analyze the competitiveness of Indonesia tire product in
destination countries, and to analyze factors that affect tire competitiveness, and to
determine the best strategy in enhancing and developing competitiveness of
Indonesian tire. Methods that used in this study are Normalized Revealed
Comparative Advantage (NRCA), Export Product Dynamics (EPD), panel data
regression, and Analytic Hierarchal Process (AHP).
Compared to the main exporter countries, the competitiveness of
Indonesian tire product is still positive. Indonesia has 0.42 NRCA index, better
than the United States (-0.82). Germany has the strongest tire competitiveness
with 5.96 NRCA index, followed by Japan (5.54), China (2.34), and France
(0.82). Meanwhile, in destination countries, generally Indonesia tire has a good
competitiveness index, but in recent years, show downward trend in most
countries especially in Japan and Middle East countries. EPD results show that
Indonesian tire product categorized as rising star in 7 countries, falling star in 2
countries, retreat in 2 countries, and lost opportunity in 4 countries. Panel data
analysis indicates that factors significantly affect the competitiveness of tire
industry are crude oil price, interest rate, tire export volume, and competitiveness
index in previous year (sig. level below 5%). FTA factor has significant level
below 10%.
In improving and developing the competitiveness of the tire industry, the
priority strategies that selected are increase product promotion, enhance
international cooperation, and strengthen structure of the domestic raw material
industry. The main goals to achieve are increase corporate profit, increase export
to gain foreign exchange reserve, and increase tire production. The most important
actors are government, tire industry, and suppliers of raw and auxiliary materials
Analisis Perbandingan Penggunaan Pondasi antara Bored Pile dengan Tiang Pancang pada Konstruksi Gedung Fakultas Scien and Technology Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Walisongo Semarang
Full text linkPondasi adalah salah satu bagian dari konstruksi bangunan yang berfungsi untuk meneruskan beban dari struktur atas ke tanah ke lapisan tanah yang berada dibawahnya tanpa mengakibatkan keruntuhan geser dan penurunan tanah yang berlebihan. Pada proyek gedung fakultas sains dan teknologi UIN Walisongo, digunakan pondasi tiang pancang, pada tugas akhir ini penulis merencanakan pondasi bored pile dan tiang pancang dari segi kapasitas daya dukung dan besarnya penurunan. Dalam analisa daya dukung9tiang tunggal (Single Pile) pondasi bored pile dan tiang pancang menggunakan metode Reese & Wright dan Thomlinson dengan menggunakan data SPT (Standart Penetration Test), untuk analisa efisiensi daya dukung tiang kelompok (Group Pile) pondasi menggunakan metode Converse- Labarre dengan menggunakan data SPT, sedangkan untuk analisa penurunan pondasi menggunakan metode Vesic 1977 untuk penurunan tiang tunggal dan penurunan tiang kelompok dengan pondasi menggunakan data SPT, serta menggunakan perhitungan dengan program Plaxis. Berdasarkan hasil perhitungan daya dukung dengan metode Reese & Wright dan Thomlinson, pondasi bored pile diperoleh hasil Qall single 64, 741 ton dan 62,270 ton, untuk pondasi tiang pancang diperoleh hasil Qall single 39,401 ton dan 39,990 ton. Untuk hasil penurunan menggunakan data daya dukung reese & wright dan thomlinson dan dihitung menggunakan metode Vesic 1977, pondasi bored pile diperoleh hasil 0,456 cm dan 0,445 cm, pondasi tiang pancang diperoleh hasil 0,313 cm dan 0,305 cm. untuk penurunan program plaxis, pondasi bored pile diperoleh hasil 0,488 cm, pondasi tiang pancang diperoleh hasil 0,480 cm.

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
