    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

    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

    This paper describes the process of spreading Islamic education in Buol towards the beginning of the 20th century. Islamic education is in Buol through the role of preachers and propagators of Islam who come to Buol through maritime trade routes. By using historical, heuristic, criticism, interpretation, and historiography methods, as well as a social science approach. Islamic education in Buol cannot be separated from the spreaders of Islam through the da'wah network where they also influence the development of Islamization. In Buol, Islamic education is found through the path of Sufism, and also politics by the appointment of a kadi. In addition, Islamic education developed because of the role of the aristocracy who wanted to make changes to Buol in the early 20th century. They developed education by learning from several teachers and scholars, and they also studied in several developing areas in the archipelago in the early 20th century.Tulisan ini mendeskripsikan proses penyebaran pendidikan Islam di Buol menjelang awal abad ke-20.

    Islamisasi yang terjadi di Nusantara pada abad ke-19  tidak terlepas dari peran dan pengaruh para pedagang sekaligus ulama dari Timur Tengah yang membawa ajaran Islam. Proses Islamisasi dan konversi agama membutuhkan waktu dan proses panjang, hingga sampai  diterima oleh masyarakat setempat. Penerimaan ajaran Islam dilakukan melalui beberapa saluran, terutama dalam jaringan perdagangan. Kawasan Laut Sulawesi, sebagai entrepot, merupakan salah satu jalur Islamisasi karena perkembangan perdagangan rempah-rempah  di Maluku sebagai wilayah penghasil rempah-rempah.Tulisan ini bertujuan mengungkap proses Islamisasi di sekitar Kawasan Laut Sulawesi pada abad XIX.Tulisan ini merupakan tulisan sejarah, dengan menggunakan metode sejarah; heuristik, kritik, interpretasi, dan historiografi yang bersifat analisis-kualitatif dan mampu menunjukkan satu rangkaian proses Islamisasi yang terjadi di Nusantara sekitar abad XIX. Hasil kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa pengaruh Islam diawali dari proses perdagangan, di kawasan Laut Sulawesi, bagi pedagang yang menghubungkan ke Maluku sebagai satu pola Islamisasi, sehingga di masa berikutnya komunitas Muslim mampu menciptakan Moslemen clave di Semenanjung Laut Sulawesi
