Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
GERAKAN SOSIAL PENDIDIKAN UNTUK DAERAH PEDALAMAN (Studi Kasus: Gerakan 1000 Guru)
Full text linkPenelitian ini dilatar belakangi oleh realitas pendidikan di pedalaman Indonesia yang
sangat memprihatinkan. Walaupun ada program SM3T yang dilakukan oleh
pemerintah pusat namun masih saja pendidikan di pedalaman sangat memprihatinkan
kondisinya. Mulai dari ruang kelas yang tidak layak hingga tidak adanya tenaga
pendidik di sekolah. Penelitian ini juga bertujuan untuk melihat bagaimana masyarakat
bereaksi atas ketimpangan pendidikan atara pusat dan daerah yang terjadi di Indonesia.
Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus.
Pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah dengan cara observasi dan wawancara
mendalam beberapa tokoh penting yang berpengaruh dalam komunitas 1000 Guru.
Skripsi ini menjelaskan analisis tentang bagaimana komunitas 1000 Guru bisa menjadi
gerakan sosial yang berfokus pada pendidikan di pedalaman. Pemanfaatan sumberdaya
yang baik dan juga dibantu oleh sosok tokoh pendiri gerakan yang kharismatik
mejadikan gerakan dapat berkembang secara pesat. Dalam skripsi ini penulis
menggunakan dua konsep untuk menjadikan dasar penulisan. Konsep tersebut adalah
gerakan sosial dan pendidikan pedalaman.
Hasil studi ini menunjukan bahwa ada empat hal pokok yang didapatkan. Yaitu:
Gerakan 1000 guru ini bisa berfokus pada pendidikan pedalaman dipengaruhi oleh
pendiri gerakan yang berasal dari pedalaman. Saluran aksi kolektif yang dibentuk
gerakan adalah media sosial, kegiatan Traveling and Teaching, program Smart Center,
dan pengobatan gratis. Pola pengajaran yang dilakukan gerakan 1000 Guru yaitu
Teaching Indor dan Teaching Outdor. Implikasi yang dirasakan masyarakat
pedalaman atas keberadaan gerakan 1000 Guru meliputi termotivasinya anak-anak di
pedalaman dan terbantunya guru pedalaman.
This research is based on the reality of education in the interior of Indonesia which is
very alarming. Although there are SM3T programs conducted by the central
government but still education in the interior is very apprehensive condition. Starting
from an unsuitable classroom to the absence of educators at school. This study also
aims to see how the community reacts to the inequality of education at central and local
levels that occur in Indonesia. The research method used is qualitative with case study
approach. The data collection used is by observation and in-depth interviews of some
important influential figures in the 1000 Teacher community.
This thesis describes an analysis of how the 1000 Teacher community can become a
social movement focused on education in the interior. Utilization of good resources
and also assisted by the figure of the founder of the charismatic movement mejadikan
movement can grow rapidly. In this thesis the author uses two concepts to make the
basic writing. The concept is social movement and education inland.
The results of this study show that there are four main points obtained. They are: The
movement of 1000 teachers can focus on inland education influenced by the founder
of the movement coming from the interior. The collective action channels formed by
the movement are social media, Traveling and Teaching activities, Smart Center
programs, and free medical treatment. The teaching patterns of the 1000 Teacher
movement are Teaching Indor and Teaching Outdor. The implications felt by the inland
community on the existence of the 1000 Teacher movement include the motivation of
children in the interior and the help of inland teachers
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
