    MOH. CHAERUL ANWAR: Language is the main factor of communication between people with others. Communication between people with others through language can be delivered in two ways, spoken language and written language. One form of written language that is useful to convey knowledge to the people is discourse. Written discourse can be formed like a thesis. Thesis is a scientific writing based on the student’s research. One of the important parts of thesis is abstract. Abstract is the summary of the thesis. In a discourse, there are many sentences which have to be united and hang together. The discourse is able to have good unity in connecting between sentences with the help of cohesive devices. Cohesive devices represent cohesive relation. This study aims (1) to find out the types of cohesive devices are commonly used on the abstracts, (2) to describe the usage of cohesive devices are used on the abstract. The study is designed as qualitative research. The data is taken from ten selected randomly undergraduate thesis abstracts written by English Language Teaching Department students of IAIN Syekh Nurjati Cirebon published in October 2016. The technique of collecting data is documentation. The writer is as the instrument of research. Then, the technique of analysis is content analysis based on the theory of Halliday and Hasan (1976) of cohesive devices. The findings show that several cohesive devices found on undergraduate thesis abstracts including grammatical and lexical cohesion. The type of conjunction is commonly used on the abstracts. The number of conjunction is 112 or 45% from all cohesive devices found. The use of cohesive devices that are found on the thesis abstracts connects one sentence with the other sentence. Keywords: thesis, abstract, discourse analysis, cohesive devices

    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

    *ABSTRAK* Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengambangkan model latihan counter attack pada cabang olahraga sepakbola. Subyek penelitian ini adalah atlet East Jakarta Soccer School (EJSS), di Jakarta Timur sebanyak 12 atlet. Jenis penelitian ini adalah Research and Development (R&D) dan model pengembangan yang digunakan adalah ADDIE. Pengumpulan data dalam analisis kebutuhan dilakukan dengan observasi, subjektif secara visual. Pada penelitian ini peneliti bekerja sama dengan 3 ahli dalam bidang olahraga sepakbola sebagai expert judgement dan mendapat hasil layak pada 20 model latihan counter attack pada cabang olahraga sepakbola sehingga dapat ditarik kesimpulan semua model latihan counter attack pada cabang olahraga sepakbola dapat diterapkan dilapangan. Dan berdasarkan tabel kriteria kelayakan maka presentase skor perolehan ini termasuk dalam kriteria layak. Jadi, pada uji kelayakan yang dilakukan, dosen ahli, praktisi dan atlet menyatakan bahwa ada 20 model latihan yang layak untuk diujicobakan. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah berupa buku saku model latihan counter attack pada cabang olahraga sepakbola. *ABSTRACT* This study aims to develop a counter attack training model in football. The subjects of this study were East Jakarta Soccer School (EJSS) athletes, in East Jakarta there were 12 athletes. This type of research is Research and Development (R&D) and the development model used is ADDIE. Collecting data in needs analysis is done by observation, visually subjective. In this study, the researchers collaborated with 3 experts in the field of football as expert judgment and got proper results on 20 models of counter attack training in football so that it can be concluded that all models of counter attack training in football can be applied in the field. And based on the eligibility criteria table, the percentage of this acquisition score is included in the "decent" criteria. So, in the due diligence conducted, expert lecturers, practitioners and athletes stated that there were 20 models of training that were feasible to try out. The results of this study are in the form of a pocket book for the counter attack training model in the sport of football

    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
