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
An investigation of Higg Index evaluation towards the sustainable development of apparel industry in Bangladesh / Chong Chen Seng
No full textIn the past 2 decades, the green supply chain concept or sustainable development in the textile or fashion industry become more important as the brands and people are aware the discarded of the clothes that never worn, and it is contributing the factor of depletion of natural resources and greenhouses gases effect. According to Bank (2019); (Nation, 2019), textile industry has become second most polluted industry come after oil and gas industry around 8% to 10% of the global warming greenhouse effects emissions and including the carbon dioxide and wastewater globally, thus it could cause the ecological impact to environment and human. This issue draws an attention to different stakeholders such as the government agency come out waste prevention activities to promote the sustainable textile and also has proposed the textile industry shall set a consensus standard among manufacturer, supplier to improve the durability of products , and recyclability of the textile products which does not impact on the environment surrounding. Environmentalist practitioners were focused on the education awareness to adopt the sustainable concept & strategies in textile supply chain management. The Higg Index FEM is a set sustainability evaluation tool which is a tool that standardizes and assess the facilities environmental performance by measuring the environment management system, energy usage and GHG emissions, water use , wastewater, air emissions, waste management handling and lastly is chemical management system in the organization to reduce environment impact of supply chain and meet the environmental requirement of industry.
This research project focuses on the Higg Index Facility Environment Module (FEM) created by the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) to investigate the sustainable development within the textile industry and where the organization utilizes appropriate sustainability management tools like Higg Index FEM 3.0. Moreover, this study aims to investigate and determine most environment impact to the textile between company self-assessment scoring and the assessor scoring. Finally, the self-assessment and external assessment will be compared in terms of their significance and the accuracy with which evaluations are scored. In particular, a comparison study using the secondary data from the Higg Index self-assessment & external assessment data results will be conducted using SPSS Statistics 25 data analysis.
In conclusion, the results of the Higg Index Module were gathered from the organization's assessment and an external assessor; the SPSS statistics results were presented and demonstrated that the score total verified from the external assessor result for the Higg Index's seven components has a significant impact on the Higg Index FEM Scoring, where the skewness and kurtosis normality with ( P value more than 0.05). Additionally, the main applicability scores of 0.680 for water and 0.607 for wastewater from the external assessor contribute significantly to the Higg Index FEM Module scoring. Self-assessment scores from the organisation were evaluated to be approximately 33% of the total score or 19.06499 points higher than those from the external assessor
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
