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
Analisis Pengaruh Islamic Corporate Governance (ICG) Dan Intellectual Capital (IC) Terhadap Maqashid Syariah Indeks (MSI) Pada Perbankan Syariah Di Indonesia
Full text linkAs an institution based on sharia principles (Islamic banks) certainly has differented characteristics from other companies in its performance orientation. Islamic banking is required to work in accordance with sharia business principles and ethics, one of which is through the implementation of governance (Islamic Corporate Governance/ICG) and the utilization of capital capital (Intellectual Capital/IC) in order to achieve the objectives of establishing Islamic banks in accordance with Islamic maqashid (measured through Maqashid Syariah Index/MSI). The objectives are (1) find out and analyze the effect of Islamic Corporate Governance (ICG) disclosures to maqashid syariah index (MSI) of Indonesian Islamic banking; and (2) knowing and analyzing the influence of Intellectual Capital (IC) to maqashid syariah index (MSI) of Indonesian Islamic banking. The method used content analysis approach for ICG, the iB-VAIC method for IC and Sekaran method on MSI calculations. The sample of Islamic banks was used 11 Islamic Commercial Banks (BUS) from a population of 13 BUS in the period 2013-2017. The sampling method was used purposive sampling. The results showed that both ICG and iB-VAIC had positive and significant effects on MSI. This means that the disclosure of ICG items and IC management will have an impacted on increasing MSI value of Islamic banks. Keywords : Islamic Corporate Governance, Intellectual Capital, Maqashid Syariah Inde
ANALISIS ISLAMIC CORPORATE GOVERNANCE DAN ISLAMIC CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPOSIBILITY DALAM DISIPLIN PASAR PERBANKAN SYARIAH DI INDONESIA
Full text linkThe objectives of this study are determine the effect of Islamic Corporate Governance (ICG) and Islamic Corporate Social Responsibility (ICSR) on market discipline with financial performance as an intervening variable. The ICG and ICSR disclosures is measured from the disclosure score compiled based of IFSB standard, AAOIFI, and relevant previous research. Market discipline measured by the ratio of deposit growth. While financial performance measured by profitability ratios in ROA and ROE. The sample used 11 Islamic banks in Indonesia were selected using purposive sampling method. Empirical testing uses the method of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Partial Least Square (PLS) approach. The results of content analysis on the sharia bank information reports for the period 2013-2015 show that the level of ICG and ICSR disclosure is quite good, namely 62% and 60% respectively. The empirical test was proved that ICG and ICSR disclosures have a positive and significant effect on market discipline. Financial performance is not able to be an ICG and ICSR liaison variable to the market discipline of Islamic banks significant direct effect on the market discipline of Islamic banks. Financial performance has’nt significant on market discipline, and that is’nt being intervening variabels to the market discipline of Islamic banks
Analisis Ekonomi Islam terhadap Pemenuhan Upah Layak Tenaga Kerja Industri Batik (Studi Kasus: Sentra Batik Kecamatan Plered Kabupaten Cirebon)
Full text linkThis research aims to identify the wage system for batik industry workers, and analyze the economic outlook of Islam on the labor wage system, and develop appropriate wage models in the batik industry. Sampling technique used purposive sampling method. Data analysis using multiple linear regression. The results showed that the factors that significantly influence the wage level of the home-based unit of the batik industry are the length of work per day, work experience and operational costs, while the home-based unit variables of the batik industry have no significant effect. To increase labor wages, a decent wage model is needed in accordance with sharia provisions.Peneliltian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi sistem pengupahan tenaga kerja industri batik, dan menganalisis pandangan ekonomi islam terhadap sistem pengupahan tenaga kerja, serta menyusun model pengupahan yang layak pada industri batik.

Untuk meningkatkan upah tenaga kerja, diperlukan model pengupahan yang layak sesuai dengan ketentuan syariah
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
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
