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
TANTANGAN GLOBALISASI DI TENGAH BERTUMBUHNYA PROGRAM STUDI PGSD UNIVERSITAS PGRI PALEMBANG (TINJAUAN FILSAFAT PENDIDIKAN PAULO FREIRE)
Globalization accompanied by rapid advances in technology and information brings great influence in all aspects of life, including aspects of education. In essence education aims to humanize humans. In reality, the influence of globalization in the form of modern capitalist structures seeks to color the world of education today is market and commercial. The impact is the pattern of college education, including PGRI University of Palembang in general and the PGSD study program in particular, may lose its identity as the basis of academic-scientific activities. To refine the essence of education amid the plight of commercial conditions, Paulo Freire's thoughts are an inspiration for the provision of quality higher education. Paulo Freire's thought is an educational function aimed at humanizing human beings in the midst of oppressive social structures. To that end, the task of education has a dual function, namely to increase critical awareness and transform social structures that oppres

Sampel penelitian ini berjumlah 35 orang, yang diambil secara acak (random sampling). Adapun metode penelitian ini menggunakan survey. Adapun hasil penelitian ini meliputi: 1) terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara penguasaan affiksasi terhadap kompetensi menulis kalimat tunggal; 2) terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara penguasaan kosakata terhadap kompetensi menulis kalimat tunggal; 3) terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara penguasaan tata bahasa dan penguasaan kosakata terhadap kompetensi menulis kalimat tunggal. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa kompetensi menulis kalimat tunggal dapat dilakukan penguasaan affiksasi dan penguasaan kosakata.  Kata Kunci: Pemahaman Afiksasi, Penguasaan Kosakata, Kompetensi Menulis Kalimat Tungga
PEMAHAMAN GURU KELAS DALAM MENJALANKAN PERAN SEBAGAI PEMBIMBING
Salah satu fungsi guru kelas adalah sebagai pembimbing, fungsi tersebut perlu dipahami dan dimaksimalkan oleh guru kelas, terutama jika melihat semakin beragamnya permaslahan siswa. SD Xaverius 7 Palembang merupakan sekolah yang pernah mendapatkan workshop mengenai implementasi layanan BK di SD, oleh karena itu perlu disurvey bagaimana pemahaman guru kelas dalam menjalankan fungsi sebagai pembimbing. Penelitian survey dilakukan terhadap guru kelas 4, 5, dan 6 SD Xaverius 7. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru kelas memiliki pemahaman yang tinggi dalam menjalan kan pemahaman terhadap peserta didik, yaitu 70%. Sementara itu guru kelas masih kebingungan dalam merancang rencana operasional yang terintergrasi dengan materi pada RPP, melakukan konseling, dan mengembangkan media. Penelitian merekomendasikan sekolah untuk memaksimalkan kolaborasi dalam pengembangan materi, serta memaksimalkan komunikasi antara guru kelas dengan orang tua melalui perangkat teknologi sebagai bagian dalam pengentasan masalah
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
