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
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
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
SISTEM MONITORING OBAT YANG AKAN KADALUARSA PADA APOTEK SETIA BUDI PEKANBARU
Full text linkPada era globalisasi dan perdagangan bebas seperti saat ini, banyak bermunculan berbagai macam produk barang yang dipasarkan kepada konsumen di indonesia, apabila tidak berhati-hati dalam memilih produk yang diinginkan konsumen, maka konsumen hanya akan menjadi objek eksploitasi dari pelaku usaha yang tidak bertanggung jawab. Pembuatan program sistem monitoring obat yang akan kadaluarsa inidiharapkandapat memberikan kemudahan kepada apotek untuk mendapatkan informasi obat-obat yang akan kadaluarsa dengan cepat dan tepat,dengan adanya sistem tersebut apotek tentu mengetahui obat yang akan kadaluarsa dan harus di kembalikan kepada supplier, dengan demikian konsumen tidak akan dirugikan dengan obat yang sudah kadaluarsa, karena terjaganya kualitas obat yang akan dikonsumsi oleh konsumen.Pembuatan sistem monitoring obat yang akan kadaluarsa ini menggunakan bahasa pemograman visual basic 6.0 dengan databasenya MySQL

HUBUNGAN MUTU PELAYANAN DENGAN KEPUASAN PASIEN RAWAT JALAN DI RSUD PETALA BUMI PROVINSI RIAU : Hubungan Mutu Pelayanan Dengan Kepuasan Pasien
No full textImproving service quality is a top priority in a hospital management. Quality health services could be appeared from five dimensions, namely reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangibles. Excellent patients’ satisfaction will be obtained if health services applied were in better quality. This research aim was to find out the correlation between service quality with patients’ satisfaction in outpatient unit of Petala Bumi General Regional Hospital of Riau Province. This was a quantitative study with cross sectional design. Sample were 96 patients which taken by accidental sampling. Data analyzed was bivariate with used Chi Square Test. The result obtained there were correlation reliability ( P value = 0,021, value of OR 3,000), responsiveness ( P value = 0,000, value of OR 5,432), assurance (P value = 0,018, value of OR 3,096), emphaty (P value = 0,004, value of OR 3,850), tangible ( P value = 0,010, value of OR 3,392) with patients’ satisfaction in outpatient unit of Petala Bumi GRH of Riau Province. It could be concluded that there was a relationship between service quality and patients’ satisfaction at the outpatient unit at Petala Bumi GRH of Riau Province. This result suggests to the Petala Bumi GRH on Riau Province to create a strategy and efforts to improve the quality of health services in order to patients’ satisfaction cloud be increased continually.Peningkatan mutu pelayanan dalam sebuah manajemen rumah sakit merupakan prioritas utama. Pelayanan kesehatan yang bermutu dapat dilihat dari lima dimensi yaitu kehandalan (reliability), daya tanggap (responsiveness), jaminan (assurance), empati (emphaty), bukti fisik (tangibles). Makin baik mutu pelayanan kesehatan yang diberikan, maka makin sempurna kepuasan pasien. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan mutu pelayanan dengan kepuasan pasien di instalasi rawat jalan RSUD Petala Bumi Provinsi Riau. Metode penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif, dengan desain penelitian Cross Sectional. Jumlah sampel sebanyak 96 orang pasien yang diambil dengan teknik Accidental Sampling. Analisa data menggunakan bivariate dengan uji Chi Square. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya hubungan kehandalan (P value = 0,021, nilai OR 3,000), daya tanggap (P value = 0,000, nilai OR 5,432), jaminan (P value = 0,018, nilai OR 3,096), empati (P value = 0,004, nilai OR 3,850), bukti fisik (P value = 0,010, nilai OR 3,392) dengan kepuasan pasien di Instalasi Rawat Jalan RSUD Petala Bumi Provinsi Riau.
