Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Analisis IT Governance Menggunakan Framework Cobit 5 Domain DSS, MEA dan BAI
Get PDFTata Kelola Teknologi Informasi adalah sebuah proses untuk mengatasi permasalahan, dan pengambilan keputusan serta kerangka kerja yang harus dipertanggung jawabkan. Teknologi Informasi yang baik, mampu meningkatkan efektifitas dan efisiensi dalam aktifitas manusia. Evaluasi tata kelola teknologi informasi sangat diperlukan untuk menentukan keberhasilan IT. Dalam mengatasi permasalahan diperlukan kerangka kerja. Salah satunya yaitu COBIT 5 (Control Objective for Information Related Technology version 5). Kerangka kerja Cobit 5 memiliki domain yang bisa dipilih yaitu domain DSS (Deliver, Service and Support), MEA (Monitor, Evaluate and Asses), dan BAI (Build, Acquire and Implement). Metode penelitain ini memakai beberapa metode yaitu metode literatur, metode model konseptual, dan analisis. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk meningkatkan program audit, mengatasi permasalahan dan pengambilan keputusan dengan menggunakan COBIT 5 dengan menggunakan domain DSS, MEA, dan BAI. Dari penilitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa dalam mengatasi permasalahan dan pengambilan keputusan dapat dilakukan dengan menggunakan kerangka kerja COBIT 5 dengan domain DSS, MEA, dan BAI.Kata kunci: Tata Kelola TI, Framework COBIT, DSS, MEA, BA
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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

[[alternative]]Interview Survey of Hambuger Fried Chicken Companies about Supported Employment to People with Mental Retardation at Da-An Area in Taipei
No full text[[abstract]]Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to investigate hamburger fried chicken companies, whether they were willing to conform their companies operations to supported employment with mental retardation. By this research I hope that companies in this sector will make more use of mental retarded people. Da-An area in Taipei forms the domain of this research. The method that was used was a face-to-face questionnaire administration, which was held among 22 managers。
This results of this study were as followed:
1. When comparing how managers operate in coordination-conditions like「pay for work」with the original intention of supported employment, it became clear that these intentions were substantially different. A requirement for allowing mental retarded people to work into this sector is that they must able to reach a standard working level within a trial period of three to seven days.
2. Most managers think that people with mental retardation are more suited for sanitary work and that they can interact easier with each other during their work. Generally 30% of these food-and-drink sector companies can provide over 20 hours of work each week. Most opinions on mental retarded personnel were that they could get an increase in wage, but that it wasn't possible for them to promote in office.
3. The degree for supported employment, that most managers can accept, is listed from high to low as encouraging 'normal' colleagues to interact with them, encouraging mental retarded personnel to participate in fellow workers leisure time activities and encouraging them to accept maybe to them abnormal behavior, but which is normal to us.
4. Every manager, who is using supported employment, is positively minded about the social services that he/she receives and is of opinion that these services are very important.
5. The two most attractive factors for using supported employment are that public welfare institutions are able to give assistance to them immediately. And that it would promote the companies image in its community and its relation with it. That mental retarded personnel have a low rate of mobility and that companies don't have to pay for their work were middle-low attractive power. Lastly, that mental retarded personnel have low salaries was the least attractive power.
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
