    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Inventarisasi Durian Lokal Super dan Problematikanya di Kabupaten Banjar

    Most Durians (Durio zibenthinus) growing in Banjar district are native varieties. The varieties are growing naturally in and around the forests and gardens. Today, local people have cultivated them in their own lands without taking into account the superior characteristics of the durians. The characteristics i.e. the durians have delicious and sweet taste, thick mesocarp, small seeds, fragrant smell, and big fruits. Besides, they are still productive and resistant against pests and diseases. The planted durians still have low quality, so their price is also low. Yet, they have been an income saucer of local people. To improve the quality of the durians, it is needed to select the high quality durians to be planted. The objectives of research were to do an inventory and identification of the durian varieties which have superior quality in Banjar district. To collect the data about the dispersal of durian trees, a survey has been done at villages where the superior durians are growing. The result showed that there were several superior durians growing at Banjar district with the varieties were: (1) si panjangtangkai, (2) si tembaga, (3) si penganten, (4) si gantang, (5) si sirih, (6) si penyengat, (7) si manalagi, (8) si katuyung, (9) si dodol, (10) si bujang, and (11) si airmata. Some problems of the superior native durians encountered in the field were: (1) the durian trees have been old (productivity tends to decrease), (2) some trees got pests and diseases due to poor maintenances, (3) they are mostly propagated by seeds. Some suggestions in sustaining and improving the superior native durians in Banjar district in the future are: (1) the local people should select the superior durians to be cultivated, (2) To maintain the superior characteristics of durian trees; they should be propagated with vegetative systems by means of cutting and/or grafting systems. (3) As soon as the planting stocks have been taken out from the durian branches, the cut branches should be covered by paraffin or other materials that will prevent the cut branches from pests and diseases, and (4) it is necessary to maintain the superior durian trees by weeding and fertilization, so they will be more productive and free from pests and disease

    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
