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
C Comparative Analysis of Cost and Time Between Multiplex Timber Formwork and Bondek Formwork for Floor Slabs: Comparison of Formwork Cost and Time
Bekisting merupakan cetakan sementara yang mempunyai peranan penting saat pengecoran beton agar hasil cetakan beton sesuai rencana. Perencanaan bekisting tentu tidak lepas dari peranan biaya dan waktu. Ada berbagai jenis bekisting yang biasa dipakai di lapangan, tetapi tidak semua orang mengetahui perbandingan harga antara jenis bekisting, adapun tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membandingkan biaya dan waktu antara bekisting kayu multiflek dengan bekisting bondek untuk plat lantai di Kabupaten Ciamis. Metode penelitian yang dipakai pada penelitian ini adalah studi komparatif, yaitu membandingkan harga satuan pekerjaan dengan memakai bahan yang berbeda dalam suatu pekerjaan yang sama yaitu pekerjaan bekisting plat lantai dan dak atap antara menggunakan material kayu multiflek dengan material besi galvanis (bondek) untuk kemudian dianalisis dan dicari nilai yang lebih ekonomis dan efisien.
Berdasarkan penelitian yang dilakukan anggaran biaya yang dibutuhkan untuk pekerjaan membuat bekisting pelat lantai menggunakan multiplek pada Renovasi Masjid Al-Badriyah sebesar Rp.116.467.904,00 dengan harga untuk 1 m² nya adalah Rp.371.390,00. Sedangkan untuk pekerjaan bekisting bondek sebesar Rp.96.494.197,33 dengan harga untuk 1 m² nya adalah Rp. 307.698,33. Berdasarkan perbandingan harga terdapat selisih sebesar Rp. 19.973.706,00, sehingga harga bekisting bondek di Kabupaten Ciamis lebih murah dibandingkan dengan bekisting multiplek. Waktu yang dibutuhkan untuk menyelesaikan pekerjaan pemasangan bekisting menggunakan multiplek yaitu 34 hari kerja, sedangkan waktu yang dibutuhkan untuk menyelesaikan pekerjaan pemasangan bekisting menggunakan bondek yaitu 9 hari kerja. Berdasarkan perbandingan waktu, pekerjaan bekisting pelat lantai menggunakan bondek di kabupaten Ciamis lebih cepat 25 hari dibandingkan dengan bekisting multiplek. Dari segi biaya bekisting bondek lebih efisien sekitar 17 % dibandingkan dengan bekisting multiplek. Dan dari segi waktu bekisting bondek lebih efisien sebesar 74 % dibandingkan dengan bekisting multiplek.Formwork is a temporary mold that has an important role when casting concrete so that the concrete mold results are as planned. Formwork planning certainly cannot be separated from the role of cost and time. There are various types of formwork that are commonly used in the field, but not everyone knows the price comparison between the types of formwork, while the purpose of this study was to compare costs and time between multiflek wood formwork and bondek formwork for floor slabs in Ciamis Regency. The research method used in this study is a comparative study, namely comparing the unit price of work using different materials in the same work, namely the work of floor plate formwork and roofing between using multiple flex wood materials and galvanized iron (bonded) materials for later analysis and analysis. looking for a more economical and efficient value.
Based on research conducted, the budget required for the work of making floor slab formwork using multiplexes in Al-Badriyah Mosque Renovation is Rp. 116,467,904.00 with the price for 1 m² is Rp. 371,390.00. As for the bondek formwork work, it is Rp. 96,494,197.33 with a price for 1 m² of Rp. 307,698.33. Based on the price comparison, there is a difference of Rp. 19,973,706.00, so the price of bondek formwork in Ciamis Regency is cheaper than multiplex formwork. The time needed to complete the formwork installation using multiplex is 34 working days, while the time needed to complete the formwork installation using bondek is 9 working days. Based on the comparison of time, slab formwork using bondek in Ciamis district is 25 days faster than multiplex formwork. In terms of cost, bondek formwork is about 17% more efficient than multiplex formwork. And in terms of time bondek formwork is more efficient by 74% compared to multiplex formwork
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
