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
Analisa Kinerja Petugas Tb (Tuberculosis) di Rumah Sakit yang telah Dilatih Program Hdl (Hospital Dots Lingkage) di Kota Medan
No full textTuberculosis is still a problem of public health in the world, especially in the developing countries, including Indonesia. DOTS (Directly Observed Treatment Short course) strategy recommended by WHO, is the most appropriate approach for this time and it should be seriously implemented by monitoring and controlling the medication for the patients. The purpose of this study was to find out the relationship of the predisposing factor, such as knowledge, training, attitude and motivation; the enabling factor, such as facility and infrastructure; and the reinforcing factor, such as controlling and developing the Hospital Director (leadership) on the performance of hospital staff who has been trained through HDL (Hospital DOTS Lingkage) program in the implementation of DOTS strategy for the patients suffering from TB in the hospital in Medan. The population of the study with cross sectional approach was all of the P2TB staff serving at the hospital who received HDL program training held by health service consisting of 3 profession as follows doctors, paramedics and laboratory staff which are 42 people in total, and all of them were selected to be the samples for this study. The data obtained were univariately, bivariately and multivariately analysed through multiple logistics regression tests. The result of the study showed that knowledge (p=0.009), motivation (p=0.045), facility and infrastructure (p=0.013), and leadership (p=0.016) had influenced on the performance of staff in implementing the DOTS strategy. The most dominant variable influencing the performance of staff was knowledge with the value of coefficient regression of 4.196. The probability of staff with adequate knowledge, high motivation, adequate facility and infrastructure and adequate leadership to do good performance was 99%. It is expected that the management of hospital need to have commitment in supporting the implementation of P2TB in order to motivate the performance of P2TB staff, to improve the attitude of the leader that she/he can direct motivate, directly and indirectly do a more effective supervision to the P2TB staff.Tuberculosis is still a problem of public health in the world, especially in the developing countries, including Indonesia.

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

Sosialisasi Sistem Penyimpanan Berkas Rekam Medis di Klinik Pratama Kelambir Medan
No full textSecara umum rekam medis mempunyai kegunaan yang sangat luas, tidak hanya menyangkut antara pasien dengan pemberi pelayanan saja, tetapi sebagai media komunikasi antara dokter dan tenaga ahli lainnya yang ikut ambil bagian di dalam memberikan pelayanan, pengobatan, perawatan kepada pasien. Data rekam medis juga berguna bagi keperluan penelitian dan pendidikan, sebagai dasar untuk merencanakan pengobatan atau perawatan yang harus diberikan kepada pasien. Bukti tertulis atas segala tindakan pelayanan perkembangan penyakit dan pengobatan selama pasien di rumah sakit.Secara garis besar terdapat 2 cara penyimpanan berkas rekam medis, yaitu sentralisasi dan desentralisasi. Sentralisasi yaitu suatu sistem penyimpanan dengan cara menyatukan berkas rekam medis rawat jalan, rawat darurat dan rawat inap kedalam satu tempat penyimpanan, sehingga penyimpanan berkas rekam medis tidak terpisah antara dokumen berkas rekam medis rawat inap, rawat jalan maupun rawat inap. Sistem ini banyak memiliki kelebihan serta ada juga kekuranganya. Desentralisasi terjadi pemisahan antara rekam medis poliklinik dengan rekam medis penderita dirawat. Rekam medis poliklinik disimpan di satu tempat penyimpanan, sedangkan rekam medis penderita dirawat disimpan di bagian pencatatan medis. Secara teori, sistem sentralisasi lebih baik, namun pada pelaksanaannya sangat tergantung pada situasi dan kondisi masing-masing rumah sakit. Hal-hal yang memengaruhi yang berkaitan dengan situasi dan kondisi tersebut antara lain karena terbatasnya tenaga yang terampil, khususnya yang menangani pengelolaan rekam medis.Penyimpanan berkas rekam medis yang baik merupakan salah satu kunci keberhasilan atau kebaikan manajemen rekam medis dari suatu pelayanan kesehatan, tentunya jika didukung dengan sistem yang baik. Sumber daya manusia yang bermutu dan prosedur atau tata kerja yang baik serta sarana atau fasilitas penyimpanan yang memadai. Kegiatan menyimpan rekam medismerupakan usaha melindungi rekam medis dari kerusakan fisik dan isi dari rekam medis itu sendiri. Rekam medis harus disimpan dan dirawat dengan baik karena rekam medis merupakan harta benda rumah sakit yang sangat berharg
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
