Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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

Namun pelaksanaan rehabilitasi narkotika tersebut berjalan belum optimal. Pertanyaan penelitian ini adalah bagaimana pelaksanaan dan kendala serta upaya untuk mengoptimalkan pelaksanaan rehabilitasi narkotika di UPT Pemasyarakatan? Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan dan kendala pelaksanaan rehabilitasi narkotika serta upaya untuk mengoptimalkan pelaksanaan di UPT Pemasyarakatan. Penelitian ini bersifat evaluatif dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Pengumpulan data penelitian ini melalui kajian literatur dan focus group discussion. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa pada umumnya UPT Pemasyarakatan sudah melaksanakan rehabilitasi narkotika sesuai dengan petunjuk pelaksanaan namun demikian masih terdapat kendala dalam beberapa aspek, yaitu sumber daya manusia, ketepatan sasaran, sistem rehabilitasi dan kelembagaan. Upaya untuk mengoptimalkan rehabilitasi narkotika di UPT Pemasyarakatan yaitu penguatan kelembagaan, sumber daya manusia dan sistem rehabilitasi. Oleh karena itu Direktorat Jenderal Pemasyarakatan harus melakukan beberapa upaya, yaitu merevisi petunjuk pelaksanaan rehabiltasi narkotika, meningkatkan kerjasama dengan instansi lain dan restrukturisasi organisasi UPT Pemasyarakatan
Implementasi Pendidikan Inklusif dalam Pemenuhan Hak Anak Berkebutuhan Khusus di Kalimantan Selatan
Get PDFInclusive education is one of the government’s efforts to fulfill the right to education for Children with Special Needs. The essence of Inclusive Education is to provide space and opportunities for children with special needs to get education as children in general without discrimination. Era of regional autonomy, the implementation of inclusive education is the responsibility of local governments. Therefore, the local government has an important role in the success of inclusive education. Kalimantan Selatan is a province that is a pioneer in the delivery of inclusive education. This study discusses how the implementation of inclusive education in Kalimantan Selatan. This study used a qualitative approach supported by quantitative data on four indicators of the fulfillment of the right to education, namely availability, affordability, acceptability and adaptable. It can be concluded that the government of Kalimantan Selatan province strongly supports the implementation of inclusive education, but in practice there are still obstacles, among others, the availability of inclusive schools that have not been evenly distributed in each district, the availability of guidance counselor particular, means of infrastructures supporting inclusive education and understanding and awareness of local leaders and community towards inclusive education.Pendidikan Inklusif merupakan salah satu upaya dari pemerintah untuk memenuhi hak atas pendidikan Anak Berkebutuhan Khusus (ABK). Hakekat Pendidikan Inklusif memberikan ruang dan kesempatan bagi Anak Berkebutuhan Khusus untuk mendapatkan pendidikan sebagaimana anak-anak pada umumnya tanpa adanya diskriminasi. Di era otonomi daerah, pelaksanaan pendidikan inklusif menjadi tanggung jawab pemerintah daerah. Oleh sebab itu pemerintah daerah memiliki peran penting dalam keberhasilan pendidikan inklusif. Kalimantan Selatan adalah salah satu provinsi yang menjadi pelopor dalam penyelenggaran pendidikan inklusif. Penelitian ini membahas bagaimana implementasi pendidikan inklusif di Kalimantan Selatan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif yang didukung oleh data kuantitatif terhadap empat indikator pemenuhan hak pendidikan yaitu ketersediaan, keterjangkauan, keberterimaan dan kebersesuaian. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa pemerintah provinsi Kalimantan Selatan sangat mendukung pelaksanaan pendidikan inklusif, akan tetapi dalam pelaksanaannya masih terdapat hambatan antara lain ketersediaan sekolah inklusif yang belum merata di setiap kabupaten, ketersediaan guru pembimbing khusus, sarana prasana pendukung pendidikan inklusif dan pemahaman dan kesadaran para pemimpin daerah dan masyarakat terhadap pendidikan inklusif
