    Aim; to explore how the experience of primiparous mothers in the process of breastfeeding their babies. Design: This study used a literature review research design. Methods: Through the steps in PRISMA, search media using google schoolar, pubmed, science direct and a collection of online journals, the keywords used are primiparous mothers, breastfeeding, primiparas, primipareos. The four journals produced were then analyzed and looked for their relationship. Results: From four studies conducted by Karen P. Jagiello, Ilana R & Azulay Chertok (2015); Yan Zhang, Yi Jind, Carel Vereijken, Bernd Stahl & Hong Jiang (2018); Dwi Margareta Andini, Andari Wuri Astuti & Fitria Siswi Utami (2019) and Juan Wen, Guiling Yu, Yan Kong, Furong Liu, Holly Wei (2020) all stated that the mother\u27s knowledge and support as well as the motivation of the family and medical personnel were also due to the mother\u27s commitment. The key to a mother\u27s success is breastfeeding her baby

    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    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

    CORRELATION BETWEEN MATERNAL EDUCATION AND EMPLOYMENT STATUS WITH EXCLUSIVE BREASTFEEDING HISTORY

    Background: In 2022, the sole lactation coverage rate in Indonesia was recorded at 67.96%. According to the East Java Provincial Health Office, 67.54% of women in the province of East Java were exclusively nursing in 2022. This falls very short of the 80% goal set by the Republic of Indonesia's Ministry of Health in 2020. Infants require breast milk and adequate nutrition to increase their nutrient levels during growth. Exclusive breastfeeding cannot be optimally provided due to various factors such as maternal education history, which influences the mother's limited knowledge about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding maternal employment. These two factors affect the provision of exclusive breastfeeding to infants. Given the foregoing context, the study's goal was to discover how a mother's job description affected her history of exclusive breastfeeding. Method: The study employed a cross-sectional strategy and a quantitative, analytical observational design. Purposive sampling was used to choose 111 participants for the study, who were all mothers with infants between the ages of 6 and 12 months. The study will be carried out in Madiun City's Public health Service Tawangrejo East Java, Indonesia. operational region. This study was conducted from February to April 2024. Data collection utilizes questionnaires. The chi-square test was used to analyze the data. Result: The p-value is 0.03 or less than 0.05, showing that the history of exclusive breastfeeding was significantly correlated with the mother's employment position and educational attainment. Mothers with a history of exclusive breastfeeding have a poor association between their employment status and education, as indicated by their correlation coefficient (R) value of 0.362. Conclusion : there is a relationship between education, employment level, and history of exclusive breastfeeding at the Tawangrejo Community Health Center in Madiun, East Java, Indonesia
