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
Effects of the Pasak Bumi (Eurycoma longifolia Jack) to Male Timor Deer (Rusa timorensis de Blainville 1822) Behaviour in Captive Breeding of Forest Research Dramaga, Bogor.
No full textThis study aims to determine the effect of giving the pasak bumi on behaviour (daily and sexual) and the level of feed intake male timor deer in captivity. The study was conducted in captive deer, Forest Research Dramaga Bogor, using a latin square design with four (4) treatment doses pasak bumi that is, R0 (0 mg), R1 (3000 mg), R2 (5000 mg) and R3 (7000 mg). The study using four male timor deers. Provision of pasak bumi is doing for four (4) each period for 10 consecutive days. To find out the behavioral effects of sexual libido, each paired with a treatment stag timor deer one female at the end of the pasak bumi administration (10 days). The results showed there is no significant difference (P>0.05) on the daily behavior and male sexual timor deer. During the study, the average length of deer rest time without giving pasak bumi (R0) was 4,13 ± 0,25 hours, while the deer are given examples of the pasak bumi (R1, R2 and R3) showed the same an average length of rest periods is 4,25 ± 0,5 hours. The same thing is shown in the average length of time in which the consumption of deer control (R0) showing a long feeding behaviour during 4,88 ± 0,25 hours, while for a given doses of R1, R2 and R3 indicate the length of time to eat the same behaviour is, 4,75 ± 0,25 hours. Although the results of statistical analysis is not showing the differences influence significantly (P>0.05), but the observation result showing that there are differences influence relatively for giving pasak bumi doses of male sexual behavior timor deer in captivity. Grins on the behavior (flehmen), grinning at the highest frequency shown in the 3000 mg dose (13,13 ± 9,76 times) and decreased at a dose of 5000 mg (10,55 ± 12,66 times) and 7000 mg (9,53 ± 12,73 times). Ranggah rubbing behavior (rutting), its frequency increases with increasing doses of the dose of 3000 mg as many as 23,60 ± 29,66 times), 5000 mg dose of as much as 28,80 ± 31,34 times and decreased at a dose of 7000 mg which is 22,80 ± 40,75 times. On approaching the behaviour of females, the frequency was increased with increasing dose of pasak bumi row 0 mg (R0) as much as 0 time, at a dose of 3000 mg (R1) is 15 ± 1,87 times, the dose of 5000 mg (R2) is 19 ± 2,75 times, and the dose of 7000 mg (R3) of 23 ± 2,87 times. Frequency behaviour of the female genitalia seen kissing the fluctuation increases then decreases at higher doses, is the treatment 1/dosis 0 mg (R0) 0 times, treatment 2 (3000 mg-R1) is 28 ± 13 times, the treatment 3/dosis 5000 mg (R2) is 24 ± 3 times, the treatment 4/dosis 7000 mg (R3) is 46 ± 5,75 times. On behavior mounting the frequency of females was increased with increasing dose of the pasak bumi row 0 mg (R0) as much as 0 time, at a dose of 3000 mg (R1) is 7 ± 3,87 times, the dose of 5000 mg (R2) is 31 ± 4,63 times, and the dose of 7000 mg (R3) of 37 ± 5,37 times. Judging from the average amount of feed intake, the results show that feed increases as increasing doses of the earth peg consecutive dose of 3000 mg of 5,38 ± 0,22 kg stag pasak bumi fed with 5000 mg which is 5,86 ± 0,84 kg and at doses of 7000 mg amount of feed intake more that 6,08 ± 1,18 kg.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efek pemberian pasak bumi terhadap perilaku (harian dan seksual) dan tingkat konsumsi pakan rusa timor jantan di penangkaran. Penelitian dilakukan di penangkaran rusa, Hutan Penelitian Dramaga Bogor, menggunakan rancangan bujur sangkar latin (latin square design) dengan empat (4) perlakuan dosis pemberian pasak bumi yaitu, R0 (0 mg), R1 (3000 mg), R2 (5000 mg) dan R3 (7000 mg). Penelitian menggunakan empat ekor rusa timor jantan. Pemberian pasak bumi dilakukan selama empat (4) periode masing-masing selama 10 hari secara berturut-turut. Untuk mengetahui efek perilaku libido seksual, setiap rusa jantan perlakuan dipasangkan dengan satu ekor rusa timor betina pada akhir masa pemberian pasak bumi (hari ke-10). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tidak ada perbedaan pengaruh yang nyata (P>0,05) terhadap perilaku harian dan seksual rusa timor jantan. Selama penelitian, rata-rata lama waktu istirahat untuk rusa tanpa pemberian pasak bumi (R0) adalah 4,13 ± 0,25 jam, sedangkan rusa contoh yang diberi pasak bumi (R1, R2 dan R3) menunjukkan rata-rata lama waktu istirahat yang sama yakni 4,25 ± 0,5 jam. Hal yang sama juga ditunjukkan pada rata-rata lama waktu konsumsi dimana rusa kontrol (R0) menunjukkan lama waktu perilaku makan selama 4,88 ± 0,25 jam, sedangkan untuk yang diberi dosis R1, R2 dan R3 menunjukkan lama waktu perilaku makan yang sama yakni 4,75 ± 0,25 jam. Meskipun hasil analisis statistik tidak menunjukkan pengaruh yang berbeda nyata (P>0,05), namun hasil pengamatan menunjukan bahwa secara relatif ada perbedaan pengaruh pemberian dosis pasak bumi terhadap perilaku seksual rusa timor jantan di penangkaran. Pada perilaku nyengir (flehmen), frekuensi nyengir tertinggi ditunjukkan pada pemberian dosis 3000 mg (13,13 ± 9,76 kali) dan menurun pada dosis 5000 mg (10,55 ± 12,66 kali) dan 7000 mg (9,53 ± 12,73 kali). Perilaku menggosok-gosok ranggah (rutting), frekuensinya meningkat sejalan dengan meningkatnya dosis yakni dosis 3000 mg sebanyak 23,60 ± 29,66 kali), dosis 5000 mg sebanyak 28,80 ± 31,34 kali dan menurun pada dosis 7000 mg yakni 22,80 ± 40,75 kali. Pada perilaku mendekati betina, frekuensinya ternyata meningkat sejalan dengan meningkatnya pemberian dosis pasak bumi yakni berturut-turut 0 mg (R0) sebanyak 0 kali, pada dosis 3000 mg (R1) yaitu 15 ± 1,87 kali, dosis 5000 mg (R2) yaitu 19 ± 2,75 kali, dan dosis 7000 mg (R3) sebanyak 23 ± 2,87 kali. Frekuensi perilaku mencium alat kelamin betina terlihat fluktuatif yakni meningkat kemudian menurun pada dosis tinggi, yakni pada perlakuan 1/dosis 0 mg (R0) 0 kali, perlakuan 2 (3000 mg -R1) yaitu 28 ± 13 kali, pada perlakuan 3/dosis 5000 mg (R2) yaitu 24 ± 3 kali, pada perlakuan 4/dosis 7000 mg (R3) yaitu 46 ± 5,75 kali. Pada perilaku menaiki betina frekuensinya ternyata meningkat sejalan dengan meningkatnya pemberian dosis pasak bumi yakni berturut-turut 0 mg (R0) sebanyak 0 kali, pada dosis 3000 mg (R1) yaitu 7 ± 3,87 kali, dosis 5000 mg (R2) yaitu 31 ± 4,63 kali, dan dosis 7000 mg (R3) sebanyak 37 ± 5,37 kali. Dilihat dari rataan jumlah konsumsi pakan, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa jumlah konsumsi pakan meningkat sejalan meningkatnya dosis pasak bumi yakni berturut-turut dosis 3000 mg sebesar 5,38 ± 0,22 kg rusa jantan yang diberi pasak bumi dengan 5000 mg yakni 5,86 ± 0,84 kg dan pada dosis 7000 mg jumlah konsumsi pakan lebih banyak yakni 6,08 ± 1,18 kg
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn 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.
