    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

    We 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

    ABSTRACTIn 1975 Indonesian contemporary art was believed to be born and marked by the occurrence of the “Black December” event which then initiated the Gerakan Seni Rupa Baru Indonesia. Arts academy also swiftly respond to this phenomenon by putting an art experimentation course as their subject in ITB and ASRI Yogyakarta. Another example was made in 1987, a successful experimental exhibition “Pasaraya Dunia Fantasi” which was held Taman Ismail Marzuki being a headline. It is now four decades the development of experimentation medium celebrated even to other non-art disciplines. Being consider of it the author seeks to bring back the methods of the past that have been adapted to the contexts of today's problems and technological advances. In this research will be a study to develop experimentation model by using some reference logic theory such as design thinking method to produce a work. The development of contemporary art and design has not been widely recognized as an interdisciplinary area that could potentially be developed into a sophisticated and cutting-edge work. In contrast, in some academic and art academic discourses, student’s views are narrowed by thickening the barriers between art and design under the pretext of need capitalization of education. Therefore, the author tries to create a method of designing an experimentation work entitled 'Pseudo Delights'. This work has been previously executed and exhibited at the National Gallery. Pseudo Delight is a performative event specially engineered to respond to today's hyper-reality phenomenon. Where the development of information and mass media is celebrated massively. The rise of many social media applications such as Instagram, the urban communities can celebrate the exclusivity of their lives in a virtual gallery freely. As to convince others about the image of their modern life that is considered successful often the image that appears then contain excessive payload or false sign. Something paradoxical to the advancement of information technology today is presenting a lot of fake images has become the era of the death of information itself.  ABSTRAK Pada tahun 1975 seni rupa kontemporer Indonesia diyakini lahir dengan tanda hadirnya peristiwa “Black December” yang kemudian mengawali Gerakan Seni Rupa Baru Indonesia. Akademi seni juga dengan cepat merespon fenomena ini dengan menambahkan mata kuliah eksperimentas seni sebagai salah satu subjek pendidikan seni di ITB dan ASRI Yogyakarta. Contoh lain ada pada tahun 1987 ketika sebuah pameran eksperimental yang sukses "Pasaraya Dunia Fantasi" yang diadakan Taman Ismail Marzuki menjadi berita utama. Sekarang empat dekade lebih pengembangan media eksperimen telah dirayakan bahkan untuk kegiatan disiplin non-seni lainnya. Dengan mempertimbangkan hal itu penulis berusaha untuk mengembalikan metode masa lalu yang telah disesuaikan dengan konteks masalah saat ini dan kemajuan teknologi. Dalam penelitian ini akan dilakukan penelitian untuk mengembangkan model eksperimen dengan menggunakan beberapa teori logika referensi seperti merancang metode berpikir untuk menghasilkan suatu karya. Perkembangan seni dan desain kontemporer belum diakui secara luas sebagai bidang interdisipliner yang berpotensi dikembangkan menjadi karya canggih dan mutakhir. Sebaliknya, dalam beberapa wacana akademis dan seni, pandangan siswa dipersempit dengan mempertebal hambatan antara seni dan desain dengan dalih kapitalisasi kebutuhan pendidikan. Oleh karena itu, penulis mencoba membuat metode merancang karya eksperimen berjudul 'Pseudo Delights'. Karya ini sebelumnya telah dieksekusi dan dipamerkan di Galeri Nasional. Pseudo Delights adalah acara performatif yang dirancang khusus untuk merespons fenomena hiper realitas saat ini. Di mana perkembangan informasi dan media massa dirayakan secara masif. Maraknya banyak aplikasi media sosial seperti instagram, masyarakat perkotaan dapat merayakan eksklusivitas kehidupan mereka di galeri virtual secara bebas. Seperti untuk meyakinkan orang lain tentang citra kehidupan modern mereka yang dianggap sukses sering gambar yang muncul kemudian mengandung muatan berlebihan atau tanda palsu. Sesuatu yang paradoks dengan kemajuan teknologi informasi saat ini adalah menghadirkan banyak gambar palsu yang telah menjadi era kematian informasi itu sendiri
