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

DEKONSTRUKSI DALAM PUISI “SATU LORONG” KARYA REMY SYLADO
Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis dekonstruksi yang terdapat dalam puisi “Satu Lorong” karya Remy Sylado. Teori Dekonstruksi merupakan salah satu dari teori Pascastruktural. Teori ini menyatakan bahwa penanda tidak berkaitan langsung dengan petanda. Dekonstruksi menurut Derrida merupakan sebuah metode membaca teks secara sangat cermat hingga pembedaan konseptual hasil ciptaan penulis yang menjadi landasan teks tersebut tampak tidak konsisten dan paradoks dalam menggunakan konsep-konsepnya dalam teks secara keseluruhan. Dengan kata lain, teks tersebut gagal memenuhi kriterianya sendiri.Hasil analisis menunjukkan oposisi-oposisi dalam diksi dari segi muatan semantik dapat dibedakan menjadi dua jenis yaitu oposisi yang mengimplikasikan nilai, seperti ‘surga dengan neraka’ dan oposisi yang mengimplikasikan entitas, seperti ‘nyanyian romantis dengan lagu sedih’. Selain itu, tipografi puisi ini menciptakan paralelisme antara pasangan-pasangan oposisinya, seperti ‘Kesedihan adalah nyanyian romantis…/ Selaksa kali dalam usia yang pendek…/ Di sengsara kita, kita madahkan lagu sedih…’.</p
Simulacra in Webtoon Virgo and The Sparkling by Anisha Nisfihani
This study aims to identify forms of simulacra, including signs, images, and codes, in the Webtoon Virgo and The Sparkling by Anisha Nisfihani. The research applies Jean Baudrillard's simulacra theory, which explains that representations and technological simulations have replaced contemporary reality. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method with a narrative analysis approach, utilizing data in the form of text and images from the Webtoon. The analysis reveals 71 forms of simulacra, consisting of 29 signs, such as guitars and costumes, 28 codes, such as "rental" and "synesthesia," and 14 images, such as the cool blue color or the smell of burning. Where each element conveys profound meanings that vary according to individual interpretation. The research demonstrates that Webtoons, as a form of cyber literature, are not merely entertaining but also encompass diverse meanings that illustrate how digital culture and media technology shape the understanding of reality. This study is expected to contribute to broadening insights into the application of simulacra theory in popular literature, particularly in understanding the role of Webtoons as an innovative platform in contemporary literature
PERJALANAN DALAM PUISI “PERJALANAN TANPA HENTI” KARYA REMY SYLADO
Makalah ini bertujuan untuk mendiskripsikan konsep perjalanan yang terdapat dalam puisi “Perjalanan Tanpa Henti” karya Remy Sylado. Teori yang mendasari adalah teori poskolonial yang dikemukakan oleh Sara Upstone. Teknik analisis dimulai dari teks puisi dan mengungkapkan instabilitas atau ketidakstabilan dalam perjalanan. Tiga jenis perjalanan dalam poskolonial yaitu perjalanan nomad, perjalanan excellence, dan perjalanan migrant. Perjalanan nomad tidak terikat pada ruang dan tidak ada yang mengendalikan. Perjalanan excellence, seperti pengasingan dan melarikan meskipun tampaknya menjauhkan diri namun masih tetap mengingat pada ruangnya terdahulu. Perjalanan migrant adalah perjalanan yang masih terkontrol karena masih memiliki tujuan.Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa puisi berjudul “Perjalanan Tanpa Henti” karya Remy Sylado memiliki konsep perjalan jenis nomad. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari tokoh wanita dalam puisi tersebut. Perjalan yang dilakukan oleh wanita itu tidak terikat oleh ruang. Sejak usia 15 tahun hingga usia 29 tahun, dia terus melakukan perjalanan. Dalam perjalanan itu dia bertemu banyak peristiwa yang kemudian peritiwa itu memunculkan adanya chaos atau kekacauan dalam dirinya. Namun hal ini tidak menyurutkan semangatnya untuk terus melakukan perjalanan. Dia terus melakukan resistensi terhadap rintangan-rintangan yang menghalangi perjalanannya. Dia tidak lagi terikat pada ruang dan tidak lagi ada yang mengendalikan. Dia akan terus melakukan perjalanan. Oleh sebab itu, puisi karya Remy Sylado telah menyajikan konsep perjalanan dan termasuk karya sastra poskolonial. Kata kunci: perjalanan, poskolonial, nomade, puisi </p
