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
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
Pengaruh Penambahan Tepung Ampas Kelapa Terhadap Karakteristik Biskuit; Effect Of Addition Coconut Flour on Biscuit Characteristic
<p align="center"><strong>ABSTRAK</strong></p><p>Pengolahan minyak kelapa murni atau <em>Virgin Coconut Oil</em> (VCO) umumnya menggunakan daging buah kelapa yang bagian testanya dipisahkan, sedangkan yang dilakukan menggunakan metode pemanasan bertahap bagian testa tidak dipisahkan dan produk yang dihasilkan tidak berwarna (bening). Hasil samping ampas kelapa masih memiliki nilai gizi, sehingga dapat disubstitusi pada pengolahan pangan tertentu. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Laboratorium Balai Penelitian Tanaman Palma, pada bulan Januari sampai Desember 2013. Tujuan penelitian memanfaatkan hasil samping ampas kelapa yang diolah menjadi tepung dan digunakan sebagai substitusi pada pengolahan biskuit serta mempelajari karakteristik biskuit, baik yang disubstitusi tepung ampas kelapa tanpa testa maupun yang ada testa. Penelitian dilakukan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap dalam percobaan faktorial. Faktor A adalah Tepung ampas kelapa, terdiri dari: a1) Tepung Ampas Kelapa ada testa dan a2) Tepung Ampas Kelapa tanpa testa. Faktor B, yaitu konsentrasi penambahan tepung ampas kelapa, terdiri atas : b1) 15%, b2) 20% dan b3) 25%. Hasil analisis biscuit yang ditambah 25% tepung ampas kelapa ada testa, memiliki kadar lemak 25%, abu 1,61%, protein 9,30%, air 0,16%, karbohidrat 63,93%, serat kasar 8,39% dan 517,92 kkal serta asam lemak rantai medium (ALRM) 13,04%. Sedangkan yang ditambah 25% TAKtt, memiliki kadar lemak 24,99%, abu 1,65%, protein 10,15%, air 0,27%, karbohidrat 62,94%, serat kasar 8,65% dan 517,27 kkal serta asam lemak rantai medium (ALRM) 12,66%. Biskuit yang dihasilkan walaupun ditambah tepung ampas kelapa, secara organoleptik diterima panelis dan juga memiliki nilai nutrisi yang baik. </p><p> </p><p align="center"><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p>Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) processing uses coconut meat which part of the testa separated, while with a gradual heating method the testa not separated and the results product colorless. Coconut pulp still has nutritional value so it can be substituted in food processing. The research was carried out at the Laboratory of Palm Research Institute, on January until December 2013. The purpuse of the research is to utilize the coconut pulp side product, which is processed into flour and used as substitution for biscuit processing and to know the characteristics of biscuit. The study was conducted using a complete randomized design in factorial experiment. Factor A is the kinds of coconut pulp flour, consisting of : a1) coconut pulp flour there is testa and a2) coconut pulp flour without testa.

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In 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.
