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
Pengaruh Subtitusi Tepung Terigu Dengan Tepung Sukun (Artocarpus Altilis) Terhadap Mutu Kimia Kue Semprong
Full text linkBreadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) is one of the main fruit producing plants of the Moraceae family. This plant has long been cultivated by the people of Indonesia and even in several countries in the Pacific region such as Fiji, Tahiti, the Samoan Islands, and Hawaii, breadfruit has been used as a traditional staple food. The consumption of breadfruit is generally still limited as a snack and a vegetable and as an alternative food source, breadfruit is proven to have a high nutritional content. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of substitution of wheat flour with breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) on the chemical quality of semprong cake or egg roll. The treatment design in this research on the substitution of wheat flour with breadfruit flour (Artocarpus altilis) on the chemical quality of semprong cakes, namely: P0 (100 grams of wheat flour), P1 (75 grams of wheat flour + 25 grams of breadfruit flour), P2 (50 grams of wheat flour + 50 grams of breadfruit flour), P3 (75 grams of wheat flour + 25 grams of breadfruit flour), and P4 (100 grams of breadfruit flour). The experimental design used was a randomized randomized design (CRD) with 5 treatments and 4 replications. The results of the proximate analysis test included moisture, ash, fat, protein and carbohydrate content, with an average value of 3.50% water content, 1.07% ash content, 26.97% fat content, 4.21% protein content, and 63.88% carbohydrate content
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
PEMBERDAYAAN MASYARAKAT MELALUI PELATIHAN PEMBUATAN VIRGIN COCONUT OIL (VCO) BAGI IBU RUMAH TANGGA (IRT) RT 004 RW 004 KELURAHAN LERE KECAMATAN PALU BARAT
Full text linkProgram pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memberdayakan ibu rumah tangga (IRT) di RT 004 RW 004 Kelurahan Lere, Kecamatan Palu Barat melalui pelatihan pembuatan Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) sebagai upaya peningkatan keterampilan dan ekonomi berbasis sumber daya lokal. Permasalahan utama yang dihadapi oleh mitra meliputi kurangnya pengetahuan dan keterampilan dalam produksi VCO, keterbatasan akses terhadap teknologi dan modal usaha, serta minimnya strategi pemasaran dan pemahaman standar mutu. Metode yang digunakan dalam kegiatan ini meliputi sosialisasi, pelatihan teknis, praktik langsung, serta pendampingan usaha. Pelatihan mencakup seluruh tahapan produksi VCO, mulai dari pemilihan bahan baku, teknik ekstraksi, penyaringan, hingga pengemasan yang sesuai standar mutu. Selain itu, peserta juga diberikan wawasan mengenai strategi pemasaran dan legalitas usaha guna meningkatkan daya saing produk di pasar lokal. Hasil dari program ini menunjukkan bahwa peserta mengalami peningkatan pemahaman dan keterampilan dalam pembuatan VCO, dengan tingkat keberhasilan sebesar 75% dalam mempraktikkan proses produksi secara mandiri. Beberapa peserta telah memulai produksi rumahan dan menunjukkan minat untuk membentuk kelompok usaha bersama. Untuk keberlanjutan program, disarankan adanya pendampingan lanjutan, akses terhadap modal usaha, serta upaya sertifikasi produk agar VCO yang dihasilkan memiliki nilai jual yang lebih tingg
