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
Akibat Hukum Wanprestasi Dalam Perjanjian Jual Beli Tanah Dan Implikasinya Terhadap Konsumen Selaku Pihak Ketiga
Full text linkThis article examines the legal consequences of default (wanprestasi) in land sale and purchase agreements and its implications for consumers as third parties. Using a normative and case-based approach, this study analyzes judicial decisions from the District Court of Depok (No. 55/Pdt.G/2022/PN Dpk), the Bandung High Court (No. 204/PDT/2023/PT BDG), and the Supreme Court (No. 2134 K/Pdt/2024). The case demonstrates the complexity of legal relations between the landowner, initial buyer, and end-consumers (such as housing unit buyers), who are affected by the annulment of sale agreements. The analysis reveals that the initial buyer’s default, including failure to pay and use of empty checks, led the courts to invalidate the agreement and return the land title to the seller. Third parties such as notaries, the National Land Agency, and consumers are placed in legally vulnerable positions. The study emphasizes the necessity of preventive legal safeguards, including due diligence, explicit contractual clauses, and clear third-party liability management in land sale chains
Klasifikasi Dekriminalisasi dalam Penegakan Hukum di Indonesia
Full text linkPenelitian ini memfokuskan kajian mengenai periodisasi dan klasifikasi dekriminalisasi terhadap pasal-pasal dalam Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHP) dengan teknik pengumpulan data secara studi kepustakaan. Jenis data yang digunakan di dalam penelitian ini adalah data sekunder yang disajikan secara kualitatif. Dekriminalisasi terhadap delik-delik dalam KUHP pada periode setelah reformasi memiliki perbedaan yang sangat signifikan dengan dekriminalisasi pada periode sebelum reformasi. Setelah reformasi, dibentuk lembaga yang berwenang melakukan dekriminalisasi terhadap delik, baik delik yang terdapat di dalam KUHP maupun delik yang terdapat di luar KUHP. Terdapat empat klasifikasi dekriminalisasi dalam penegakan hukum di Indonesia, yaitu dekriminalisasi bukan murni, dekriminalisasi murni, dekriminalisasi murni sebahagian, dan dekriminalisasi bersyarat. Bukan murni berarti suatu delik masih tetap berlaku dan memiliki kekuatan hukum (legal). Murni berarti suatu delik sudah tidak berlaku dan tidak memiliki kekuatan hukum (tidak legal atau tidak sah). Murni sebahagian berarti suatu delik masih tetap berlaku dan tetap memiliki kekuatan hukum (legal atau sah) terhadap unsur perbuatan pidana yang masih berlaku. Bersyarat berarti menegaskan syarat tertentu dalam hal berlakunya suatu delik secara lega
Analisis Penataan Kelembagaan KP2MI dan BP2MI Ditinjau dari Asas Hukum Administrasi Negara dan Prinsip Tata Kelola Pemerintahan yang Baik
Full text linkIndonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) make a significant contribution to the national economy but continue to face serious challenges in terms of legal and institutional protection. The institutional transformation from BNP2TKI to BP2MI, followed by the establishment of the Ministry for the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (KP2MI) through Presidential Regulation (Perpres) No. 165 of 2024, and the simultaneous reissuance of Perpres No. 166 of 2024 reinstating BP2MI, has raised concerns about overlapping functions and legal uncertainty. This study uses a normative juridical approach to analyze the institutional design compatibility of KP2MI and BP2MI with the principles of administrative law and good governance. The findings indicate a duplication of functions that contradicts the principles of legality, bureaucratic efficiency, and public accountability. Overlapping authority undermines law enforcement and weakens the overall protection of migrant workers. This study recommends a comprehensive institutional restructuring, either through the revocation of Perpres 166/2024 or amendments to both regulations with a clear delineation of functions, and the implementation of transparency, accountability, and cross-sector coordination to establish more efficient and human rights-responsive governance in the protection of Indonesian migrant workers
