    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Teologi Toleransi; Dari Toleransi Recognize menuju Toleransi Nilai

    No full text
    This article wants to redefine tolerance, it also wants to show that religious plurality becomes a necessity that cannot be sued. In addition, this article wants to see the negative side of the emergence of a single logical reasoning on religious truth. This topic is examined using a qualitative-descriptive approach, emphasizing the importance of humans being actively tolerant, reviving values in the natural diversity of the country. At the end of this article, the author also wants to show that plurality as a necessity, can be read from theological perspective. Therefore, the reconstruction of Islamic theology is needed to re-read the meaning of true tolerance

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Tinjauan Historis: Pemikiran Hukum Islam Pada Masa Tabi’in (Imam Hanafi, Imam Malik, Imam Syafi’i Dan Imam Hanbali) Dalam Istinbat Al-Ahkam

    Full text link
    Pada masa Tabi’in perkembangan hukum Islam ditandai dengan munculnya aliran-aliran politik secara implisit mendorong terbentuknya aliran hukum. Hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor diantaranya: perluasan wilayah dan perbedaan penggunaan Ra’yu. Secara tidak langsung terbentuknya aliran ini membuktikan bahwa dalam Islam terdapat kebebasan berpikir dan masing-masing saling bertoleransi/saling menghargai perbedaan itu. Perbedaan itu tidak menjadi penghalang dalam kebersamaan dan ukhwah islamiyah. Secara umum masa tabi’in dalam penetapan dan penerapan hukum mengikuti langkah-langkah yang telah dilakukan oleh sahabat dalam istinbath al-ahkam. Istinbath ini dilakukan dengan cara berijtihad yang sesuai dengan ketentuan sumber Islam yaitu al-Qur’an, Sunnah, Ijma’ dan Qiyas. Pembentukan madzhab dilihat dari semakin berkembangnya ilmu pengetahuan, pada fase ini dikatakan sebagai zaman keemasan dalam sejarah perkembangan hukum Islam. Faktor utama yang mendorong perkembangan hukum Islam adalah karena berkembangannya ilmu pengetahuan di dunia Islam. Sehingga muncul madzhab-madzhab fiqh Islam setelah masa sahabat dan kibrar al-tabi’in berjumlah tiga belas aliran. Muncul tiga belas mujtahid yang madzhabnya dibukukan dan diikuti pendapatnya, kesemuanya berafiliasi dengan aliran Ahl al-sunnah. Namun, madzhab-madzhab yang terkenal hanya empat yaitu Imam Hanafi, Imam Malik, Imam Syafi’i dan Imam Hanbali
