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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
Pengaruh Penyuluhan Menstruasi Melalui Media Video Terhadap Pengetahuan Siswa Kelas VII SMPN42 Batam
Dari survei antropometrik di tujuh daerah di Indonesia didapatkan bahwa usia menstruasi pertama anak Indonesia bervariasi dari usia 12,5 tahun sampai dengan usia 13,6 tahun. Pengetahuan mengenai menstruasi sangat diperlukan oleh remaja yang telah mengalami menstruasi maupun yang belum mengalami nya. Perlunya dilakukan pendidikan kesehatan mengenai menstruasi melalui media video untuk memberikan informasi kepada remaja putri guna untuk menghindari kekeliruan yang mengaitkan menstruasi dengan suatu penyakit dan kesalahpahaman dalam praktik kebersihan diri saat menstruasi. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penyuluhan menstruasi melalui media video terhadap pengetahuan siswi kelas VII di SMPN 42 Batam. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan Quasi Experiment dengan pendekatan yang digunakan adalah one grup pretest-posttest. Penelitian ini dilakukan di SMPN 42 Batam dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 90 yang didapatkan dari hasil perhitungan rumus slovin dan dengan teknik pengambilan yang digunakan adalah acak stratifikasi. Subjek diberi kuesioner pretest dilanjutkan dengan penyuluhan melalui media video dan kemudian diberi kuesioner posttest. Analisa data dilakukan dengan menggunakan paired t test. Terdapat pengaruh penyuluhan menstruasi melalui media video terhadap pengetahuan siswi kelas VII di SMPN 42 Batam dengan nilai p value 0,00. Perbedaan tingkat pengetahuan dapat dilihat dari kenaikan nilai mean pada saat sebelum penyuluhan 56,89 dan setelah penyuluhan menjadi 73,11 terjadi peningkatan sebesar 16,22. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh penyuluhan menstruasi melalui media video terhadap pengetahuan siswi kelas VII di SMPN 42 Batam. Diharapkan setelah diberikannya penyuluhan menstruasi, siswi dapat mengaplikasikan ilmu yang didapat dalam kehidupan sehari-har
DEPRESI INDUCED STEROID: STUDI KASUS
Back Ground: Depression is a natural disturbance of feeling that is characterized by feelings of sadness, loss of interest and easily tired. Steroids are drugs that can reduce swelling, pain and heat due to inflammation through reducing the immune response. Steroids are often used in cases of systemic Lupus Erythematosus in the long term. Therefore management of the disease must be done well because steroids can cause depression. Case Report:Women, 37 years old, depressed mood, disappointment in life, loss of enthusiasm, fatigue, decreased appetite and difficulty sleeping for 1 year. 4 years ago I took steroids for 2 years at a dose of 20mg / day, because rheumatoid arthritis was stopped by os, and for the past 1 year, steroid consumption was due to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus around 60 mg / day. . Before the os consumes steroids, the OS has never experienced depression.BP: 110/70 mmHg , HR 88x/menit, RR 20x/menit, Temp 37°C. Skor BDI 21.
