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
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
Akuntansi pada Era Keemasan Kerajaan Majapahit (Berdasarkan Kajian Paradigma Foucauldian)
Get PDFDalam sudut pandang traditional accounting history, akuntansi hanya dianggap sebagai peralatan teknis, yaitu sebagai teknik mengumpulkan dan menyajikan data keuangan untuk kepentingan pengambilan keputusan. Berbeda dengan pendekatan tradisional, pendekatan baru yang digunakan oleh ilmuwan akuntansi, dikenal dengan istilah new accounting history, memandang bahwa akuntansi tidak semata-mata peralatan teknis, melainkan sebuah kekuatan dan pengetahuan (power and knowledge) yang mampu membentuk kehidupan social dalam suatu masyarakat. Salah satu perspektif yang digunakan dalam paradigma new accounting history adalah Foucauldian. Penggunaan konsep filosofis Foucauldian dalam studi sejarah akuntansi disebut sebagai paradigma postmodern dengan melakukan studi sejarah akuntansi menggunakan konsep yang disampaikan oleh Michael Foucault, yaitu konsep kekuatan-pengetahuan (power-knowledge). Penggunaan konsep power-knowledge dalam melakukan studi sejarah akuntansi ini ditujukan untuk menganalisis bagaimana akuntansi muncul dan eksis dalam suatu organisasi maupun dalam masyarakat sebagai suatu kekuatan disipliner (disciplinary power), yaitu kekuatan yang dapat membentuk (constitutive) perilaku masyarakat dalam kehidupan sosial. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui relasi antara akuntansi dan kekuasaan pada era keemasan kerajaan Majapahit dengan menerapkan paradigma Foucauldian (power-knowledge). Metode penelitian dalam penelitian ini adalah analisis deskriptif. Dalam melakukan penelitian ini, penulis memakai data-data sekunder yaitu literatur yang memuat informasi mengenai Kerajaan Majapahit di era keemasannya, terutama Kitab Negarakertagama. Hasil penelitian menemukan bahwa Raja Hayam Wuruk dalam pemerintahan Kerajaan Majapahit merupakan constructive power yang menjadi kekuatan yang berperan secara signifikan dalam membentuk tata kelola pemerintahan di Kerajaan Majapahit. Dalam naskah Negarakertagama, disebutkan bahwa kekuasaan Raja Hayam Wuruk sangat mempengaruhi dalam pemungutan pajak di Kerajaan Majapahit. Mekanisme operasional pemungutan pajak di Kerajaan Majapahit atas wilayah jajahan, pedagang asing, dan rakyatnya, serta sanksi denda bagi mereka yang bertindak menyalahi aturan memperlihatkan bentuk akuntabilitas administrasi kerajaan. Sejalan dengan konsep Foucauldian (power-knowledge), keputusan Raja Hayam Wuruk untuk mengumpulkan pajak bukanlah masalah yang sepele, namun hal ini merupakan dasar dari praktik akuntansi di Kerajaan Majapahit.In view of traditional accounting history, accounting for only regarded as technical equipment, which is a technique to collect and present financial data for the purposes of decision making. Unlike the traditional approach, a new approach accounting wich used by accounting scientists, known as the new accounting history, viewing that accounting is not merely technical equipment, but rather a power and knowledge that is capable of forming social life in a society. One of the perspective used in the new paradigm of accounting history is Foucauldian. The use of Foucauldian philosophical concept in the study of accounting history is referred to as postmodern paradigm by studying the history of accounting using the concepts presented by Michael Foucault, namely concept of power-knowledge. The use of the concept of power-knowledge in the study of accounting history is intended to analyze how accounting arise and exist within an organization and within society as a disciplinary power, the power that can form behavior society in social life. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between accounting and power in the golden era of the Majapahit empire by applying Foucauldian paradigm (power-knowledge). Research methods in this research is descriptive analysis. In conducting this study, reseacher use secondary data, namely the literature that contain information about the Majapahit empire in the golden era, especially the Book of Negarakertagama. The study found that King Hayam Wuruk in the reign of Majapahit empire was constructive power which to play a significant role in shaping governance in the Majapahit empire. In the script Negarakertagama, stated that the reign of King Hayam Wuruk greatly influence the collection of taxes in the Majapahit empire. Operational mechanism of tax collection in the Majapahit empire on the colonies, foreign traders, and its people, as well as financial penalties for those who act against the rule showing accountability form of royal administration. In line with the Foucauldian concept (power-knowledge), the decision of King Hayam Wuruk to collect taxes is not a trivial problem, but this is the basis of accounting in Majapahit empire
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
