Four-tier chemical bonding instrument: Its development and validation
This study highlights the development and validation of a four-tier instrument in chemical bonding to produce a valid and reliable instrument in the discipline. The instrument was developed according to the procedure proposed by Habiddin & Page (2019), including (1) mapping concept (2) testing & interviewing, (3) identifying & collecting studen
Monsoon and fasting month
This is a recording of two men, Rahmat Wahyudi and Habiddin at Wahyudi's house. Wahyudi is a 45 year old man, married to a woman from the same village. Habiddin is a 25 year old man who is also married to a woman from Pondok Prasi. Both speakers are relative and fishermen who own their own boats. They are talking about fishing especially regarding how monsoon and fasting affect their work such as they cannot go fishing or there is no catch. The recording ends with Khairunnisa collecting metadata from the speakers. Leah Pappas assisted with the recording. The recording ends with Khairunnisa collecting metadata from the speakers. Video was recorded on Panasonic HC-V770, audio on Marantz PMD561 with an Audio Technica AT8022 Stereo Microphone.Ampenan, Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesi
Validating an instrument to investigate students’ conception of Salt hydrolysis
This paper outlines the development and validation of a Four-tier instrument in the topic of salt hydrolysis (FTISH). The instrument was developed by using the procedure of FTDICK instrument as published by Habiddin & Page (2019). This study was a part of other separates studies conducted by other groups of researchers including Devita, Habiddin & Suaidy (2019) (in press). This study involved 127 students in total and data collection were carried out two times involving 64 students in the first data collection and 63 students in the second one. The participants of both groups were public secondary school students from Malang. The FTISH consists of 23 questions. The results show that the validity of the questions ranged between 0.263 and 0.745. The reliability of the instrument was 0.80 and falls in the high category. The future implementation of the instrument to support the teaching and learning of salt hydrolysis are also discussed
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
Multimedia vs concrete model: Review of studies employing the tools in chemistry teaching
This paper describes previous studies regarding the use of multimedia or virtual model and concrete model to improve students’ understanding of chemistry. Thirty-three relevant papers in various topics, including stereochemistry, symmetry, chemical bonding, law conservation of matter, and others, were found and discussed. In particular, relevant studies in stereochemistry teaching is also discussed. REFERENCESAnggriawan, B. (2017).

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
