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
The Authority of the Village Government in the Management of Village Funds during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Full text linkThe Covid-19 emergency condition requires a change in the priority of using village funds, which was originally to finance government administration, development implementation, community development, and community empowerment switch to village cash direct assistance activities. Mekarsari Village basically had several priorities before the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic, one of which was the improvement of infrastructure such as roads and government agencies such as village offices due to the earthquake that hit Lombok Island in mid-2018. The purpose of this study is to examine how the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in Mekarsari Village is, then examine the authority of the Mekarsari Village Government in managing village funds in the Covid-19 pandemic era and how to optimize it, and examine what obstacles are faced by the Mekarsari Village Government in managing funds. village during the Covid-19 pandemic. In this study, the author applies the normative-empirical legal research method using a statutory, conceptual, and sociological approach. The results of the study indicate that the very broad function of the village government is the foundation for the sustainability of effective village government in carrying out local policies, especially in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic. Then the Mekarsari Village Government has also established a village fund program to support village development so that they are able to optimally manage human and natural resources in order to alleviate new poverty due to the Covid-19 pandemic
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
THE REVITALIZATION OF THE INDONESIAN LEGAL SYSTEM IN THE ORDER OF REALIZING THE IDEAL STATE LAW
No full textIt can be called that the dynamics of national and state life in Indonesia are increasingly being tested by the same problem. For example, an outbreak of judicial corruption from the time to time, which was never ending. Law enforcers who are echoed as honorable professions, but on the other hand, these are exacerbated by the corrupt behavior of those professions. The sale and purchase of a case is no longer viewed as taboo, indeed it just looks like proper. Which means, it is a kind of a sign that the various legal regulations that normatively regulate the entire judicial process are ultimately unable to overcome the judicial corruption. The main objective of this research focuses on analysis related to efforts to revitalize the legal system in order to create an ideal rule of law as stated by Lawrance Friedman in his book namely "The Legal System: A Social Science Perspective". In this research, the method used is normative juridical using statutory, conceptual and historical approaches. The results of the research present an idea which is divided into three according to the three elements in the formation of a rule of law according to Lawrance Friedman, namely legal substance, legal structure, and legal culture. With regard to legal substance, the author provides the idea of a judicial preview as a method of validating the constitutionality of laws. Then related to the legal structure, the author provides ideas related to efforts to build morality and professionalism of law enforcement officials. Meanwhile, in terms of legal culture, the author provides ideas related to efforts to build a legal culture in society that is aware of the law and the constitution
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
