    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

    Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian pada masyarakat ini adalah terjadinya peningkatan pendapatan petani melalui penerapan TTG Sistem Legowo dan paket pemupukan pada jagung dan produksi benih jagung sintetik Unhas (Sinhas 1), yang telah dilepas Kementan RI Tahun 2019, serta peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan petani dalam memproduksi biokompos, biopestisida, pupuk cair dan cara aplikasinya. Produk yang dihasilkan akan digunakan sebagai usaha agribisnis melalui bekerjasama dengan lembaga Badan Usaha Milik Desa (BUMDes) Desa Tarowang. Metode dan tahapan pelaksanaan adalah melalui sosialisasi program yang dilanjutkan dengan pelatihan tatap muka tentang teknologi yang akan diterapkan. Hasil dari pelaksanaan pengabdian pada masyarakat adalah terjadinya peningkatan pemahaman dan keterampilan petani dalam pembuatan pupuk organik cair dan kompos dengan memanfaatkan limbah pertanian yang ada di sekitar desa. Selain itu, demplot yang telah dibuat untuk mempraktekkan produksi benih Jagung Sintetik Unhas (Sinhas 1) oleh petani juga mendapat respon yang cukup besar. Hal ini ditunjukkan dari minat dan pertanyaan yang diajukan petani saat penyuluhan dan pelatihan berlangsung. Dengan adanya kegiatan pegabdian ini, maka petani bertambah wawasannya terkait pentingnya pemupukan pada tanaman Jagung untuk mencapai produksi yang maksimal. Produk yang dihasilkan berupa POC dan Kompos selain untuk kebutuhan sendiri, maka dapat dijadikan produk BUMDes Desa Tarowang. Kata kunci: Benih, jagung Sinhas 1, pupuk, agribisnis.   ABSTRACT The purpose of this community service activity is to increase farmers\u27 income through the application of the Legowo System and fertilizer packages on corn and corn seed production from Unhas Synthetic Corn (Sinhas-1), which was released by the Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture in 2019, as well as to increase farmers\u27 knowledge and skills in producing biocompost, biopesticide, liquid fertilizer and how to apply it. The resulting product will be used as an agribusiness business in collaboration with the Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) of Tarowang Village. The method and stages of implementation were through program of socialization followed by face-to-face training on the technology to be applied. The result of the implementation of community service is an increase in the understanding and skills of farmers in making liquid organic fertilizer and compost by utilizing agricultural waste around the village. In addition, the demonstration plots that have been made to practice the production of Synthetic Corn seeds of Unhas (Sinhas 1) by farmers have also received a fairly large response. This is shown by the interest and questions asked by farmers during the extension and training. With this community service activity, farmers gain insight regarding the importance of fertilization on corn plants to achieve maximum production. The products produced in the form of Liquid Organic Fertilizers and Compost other than for their own needs, can be used as BUMDes products in Tarowang Village.

    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

    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.
