    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

Penerapan KUHP terhadap kasus Bersihar Lubis tempat digunakan karena UU Pers yang bersifat khusus tidak mengatur tindak pidana penghinaan yang dilakukan oleh wartawan sehingga tidak dapat diberlakukan asas Lex Specialis. Dalam tindak pidana penghinan Pers yang dapat dimintai pertanggung jawaban pidana menurut KUHP tidak hanya wartawan sebagai penulis, tapi juga dapat dimintai pertanggungjawabannya kepada pimpinan umum dan redaksinya. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penyusunan Skripsi ini adalah metode penelitian normatif. (F) Acuan: 25 (G) Pembimbing: Bapak Sugandi Ishak, S.H., M.H. (H) Penulis: Indriyuni Fa

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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

    Author, publisher and bookseller : a tripartite synergy in Nigerian book industry

    Full text link
    This work is about the roles of Author, Publisher and Bookseller in Book development in Nigeria. The paper started by delving into the history of Book Publishing in Nigeria after which it proceeded by defining who an author, a publisher, and a bookseller is and expatiated on the indispensable roles of these key actors in Nigerian Book Industry and in the emerging Information Society. Furthermore, the various constraints to book development were identified while the paper advised on how the Book Industry can be further promoted in Nigeria. However, the paper concluded and made recommendations on how the Book sector can help in enhancing scholarship in the country

    What Drives Fixed Asset Holding and Risk-Adjusted Performance of Corporate in China? An Empirical Analysis

    Full text link
    This paper attempts to shed light on the over-investment debate by investigating listed firms in China. Firms with higher level of fixed asset holding, higher level of overhead expenses, and being covered by the tax-favor policy in China are found to be associated with a lower risk-adjusted performance. In addition, the tax-favor policy itself encourages fixed asset investment. In contrast to some of the previous literature, state-ownership of firms, dividend policy, and ownership concentration are not robust predictors of risk-adjusted performance, and debt level, managerial shareholding, and profit per unit of asset are not robust predictors of fixed asset investment.fixed asset holding, corporate real estate, over-investment theory, state-ownership, tax-favor policy

    Caracterização de horizontes espódicos e distribuição das substâncias húmicas.

    Full text link
    A identificação dos horizontes espódicos (Bs, Bh e/ou Bhs) de maneira geral baseia-se na combinação de atributos químicos e morfológicos, envolvendo principalmente a dinâmica dos íons Fe e Al e da matéria orgânica humificada (substâncias húmicas) ao longo do perfil. Neste sentido, este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a distribuição dos teores de carbono orgânico das substâncias húmicas e correlacioná-las com as propriedades dos horizontes espódicos. Para isto, utilizou-se 33 horizontes diagnósticos B espódico coletados em diferentes regiões do Brasil. Foram realizadas avaliações morfológicas de acordo com as normas da SBCS, as análises físicas, químicas e a classificação foram feitas segundo normas da Embrapa. Nestes horizontes foram extraídas as substâncias húmicas e obtido o carbono orgânico da fração ácidos fúlvicos (C-FAF), fração ácidos húmicos (C-FAH) e humina (C-HUM), as relações C-FAH/C-FAF e C-EA/C-HUM e a % das frações em relação ao carbono orgânico total (COT). Os teores de COT variaram de 0,4 a 40,1 g kg-1 indicando as diferenças entre os tipos de horizontes espódicos. Entre as substâncias húmicas os ácidos húmicos predominaram, sendo em média 49% do COT, seguido pelos ácidos fúlvicos com 35% e a humina com 23%. Este comportamento contribuiu para o predomínio de valores da relação C-FAH/C-FAF superior a 1,0 e do C-EA/C-HUM superior a 2,0. Na avaliação da correlação entre as frações com as propriedades químicas foram observados maiores valores do C-FAH com H+ (r = 0,64**), com CTC (r = 0,72**), com Al3+ (r = 0,54**) e com pH (r = -0,68**). Os resultados observados das substâncias húmicas destes horizontes indicam o predomínio das frações alcalino-solúveis e dentre estas se destacando os ácidos húmicos na maioria dos horizontes. O acúmulo do C-FAH está relacionado a baixos valores de pH, sendo este importante para a CTC destes solos
