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

Pengaruh Gaya Kepemimpinan Transformasional dan Sikap Permisif terhadap Kualitas Laporan Keuangan Dana Bos pada Lembaga Pendidikan.
Get PDFPenelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif pada bendahara BOS di SMA/SMK swasta Cirebon. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji pengaruh gaya kepemimpinan tranformasional dan sikap permisif terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan dana BOS di SMA/SMK Cirebon. Adapun masalah penelitian berkaitan dengan apakah gaya kepemimpinan transformasional dan sikap permisif berpengaruh terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan.
Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah semua bendahara BOS SMA/SMK di Cirebon yang berjumlah 157 bendahara. Jumlah responden yang diperoleh dalam penelitian adalah berjumlah 32 responden. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah dengan menggunakan purposive sampling method. Kriteria purposive sampling method yang digunakan terdiri dari: sekolah tingkat SMA/SMK swasta di Kabupaten/Kota Cirebon, responden merupakan bendahara penyusunan dana BOS, dan responden berpendidikan terakhir minimal S1.
Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dan analisis data dengan menggunakan analisis regresi linier berganda menunjukkan bahwa: 1) gaya kepemimpinan transformasional berpengaruh positif terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan, 2) sikap permisif tidak berpengaruh terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan.
Hasil analisis tersebut dipengaruhi oleh dua faktor yaitu gaya kepemimpinan transformasional dan sikap permisif. Faktor pertama, gaya kepemimpinan mampu memberikan pengaruh positif terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan. Hasil ini mendukung penelitian terdahulu yang menyatakan bahwa terdapat hubungan positif pada gaya kepemimpinan transformasional dan sejalan dengan teori kepemimpinan yang mengatakan bahwa perilaku anggota dapat dipengaruhi oleh perilaku dan karakteristik pemimpin. Anggota akan mengikuti bagaimana sikap, perilaku, dan karakter pemimpin pada organisasi. Semakin organisasi tersebut mencerminkan kinerja yang baik, maka semakin baik pula loyalitas, perilaku, dan karakteristik yang dimiliki pemimpin dalam membangun dan mencapai tujuan organisasi. Hal ini bermakna bahwa gaya kepemimpinan transformasional yang terdiri atas empat indikator mampu mempengaruhi kualitas laporan keuangan dana BOS.
Faktor kedua yaitu sikap permisif tidak berpengaruh terhadap kualitas laporan keuangan sehingga tidak mendukung hipotesis yang dibangun. Hasil ini tidak mendukung penelitian terdahulu dan teori rasionalisasi fraud hexagon. Dalam teori rasionalisasi fraud hexagon dijelaskan bahwa seseorang yang melakukan kecurangan keuangan beranggapan bahwa hal itu merupakan perbuatan yang wajar. Perbuatan rasionalisasi mengklaim bahwa tindakan kecurangan merupakan sebuah kebenaran yang harus dilakukan baik individu maupun organisasi. Hasil penelitian ini dipengaruhi oleh beberapa hal diantaranya; 1) indikator sikap permisif diadopsi dari artikel luar negeri karya Baumrind tahun 1965 yang bisa jadi tidak sesuai dengan kondisi organisasi di Indonesia, 2) nilai statistik deskriptif pada variabel SP lebih besar daripada variabel lainnya, dan 3) variasi datanya cenderung besar. Hal ini bermakna bahwa sikap permisif sebagai bagian dari tindakan rasionalisasi teori fraud hexagon tidak mampu mempengaruhi kualitas laporan keuangan dana BOS.
Implikasi dari penelitian ini yaitu gaya kepemimpinan transformasional mempengaruhi kualitas laporan keuangan lembaga pendidikan di SMA/SMK Cirebon. Hal ini didukung oleh indikator dari gaya kepemimpinan transformasional yang dapat memberikan kontribusi perubahan sistem kepemimpinan menjadi lebih baik di lingkungan pendidikan. Hasil penelitian ini digunakan sebagai masukan bagi lembaga pendidikan khususnya di SMA/SMK di Kabupaten/Kota Cirebon. Selanjutnya, hasil penelitian ini digunakan untuk membenahi sistem yang telah ada dalam rangka meningkatkan kepemimpinan yang lebih baik. Dengan demikian, organisasi mampu meminimalisir sikap permisif yang dapat menurunkan relevansi kinerja organisasi di masa mendatang.
Hasil penelitian ini dapat dijadikan masukan bagi lembaga pendidikan agar dapat mengimplementasikan dasar-dasar kepemimpinan terutama indikator yang terdapat pada gaya kepemimpinan transformasional yang dinilai lebih baik daripada gaya kepemimpinan transaksional. Adapun fungsi dan kegunaan BOS tidak hanya untuk kepentingan pribadi melainkan untuk kesejahteraan lembaga pendidikan agar lebih baik termasuk sarana prasana, fasilitas penunjang pembelajaran, dan fasilitas lainnya yang harus dibenahi.
Penelitian ini terbatas pada rendahnya keterlibatan responden dalam mengisi kuesioner penelitian yang disebar. Hal ini mungkin kuesioner disebarkan secara online sehingga kurang memberikan motivasi kepada responden untuk mengisi kuesioner. Adapun solusi yang dapat diatasi terkait rendahnya keterlibatan responden adalah kuesioner dibagikan secara face to face. Penyebaran kuesioner di awal memerlukan himbauan secara masif untuk dapat memberikan pemahaman terkait pentingnya mengisi kuesioner kepada responden

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
