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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
PERSEPSI NELAYAN TERHADAP TEMPAT PEMASARAN IKAN HIGIENIS DI PELABUHAN PERIKANAN SAMUDERA CILACAP
Kualitas hasil perikanan dipengaruhi oleh kondisi tempat pemasaran ikan di pelabuhan perikanan. Penunjang utama keberhasilan peningkatan mutu di Pelabuhan Perikanan Samudra (PPS) yaitu dengan membuat konsep pemasaran ikan higienis, salah satunya di PPS Cilacap. Pembangunan tempat pemasaran ikan (TPI) higienis PPS Cilacap ini dilandasi oleh Keputusan Direktorat Jendral Perikanan Tangkap (DJPT) no 7 tahun 2017 tentang petunjuk teknis TPI higienis di pelabuhan perikanan. Tujuan penelitian adalah mengkaji dan mendeskripsikan persepsi penguna jasa terhadap penerapan tempat pemasaran ikan higienis dengan metode analisis bersifat deskriptif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa persepsi pengguna jasa terhadap tempat pemasaran ikan higienis di PPS Cilacap dari aspek fasilitas mayoritas penerapan tinggi yaitu nilainya di atas 146,67, akan tetapi kondisi (lantai, ventilasi, fasilitas/peralatan penunjang pemasaran higienis) beberapa dinilai rendah yaitu kurang dari 93,33 dan fasilitas seperti roller conveyor, cool box, mesin penghancur es (ice crusher) tidak terdapat di PPS Cilacap. Aktivitas bongkar dan pengangkutan juga memiliki rata-rata persepsi dalam penerapan tinggi yaitu nilainya diatas 146,67. Penanganan ikan di TPI higienis PPS Cilacap tidak dilakukan pelelangan, tidak dilakukan pensotiran di meja sortir dan pelabelan. Partisipasi nelayan dalam pemasaran menjadi berkurang akibat tidak diadakannya pelelangan. Oleh karena itu perlu dilakukan perbaikan penerapan, baik fasilitas yang sudah mulai mengalami kerusakan, serta perlunya penambahan fasilitas untuk memperlancar aktivitas.Title: Fishers Perception on Hygienic Fish Market at Cilacap fishing portThe quality of fisheries products subject to condition of the fish market. The key concept of fish quality at Cilacap was fishing port due to the existence of hygienic fish market. Decision Letter of the Director General of Capture Fisheries No.7/2017 regarding the technical guidelines for hygienic fish market at the fishing port has been the basis of the development of hygienic fishing port in Cilacap. This study aimed to asses and describe public perception on the hygienic fish market using a descriptive method. The study showed that public perception on hygienic fish market at Cilacap fishing port was above 146.67 in terms of its facilities. The condition of some facilities (flooring, ventilation, facilities or other equipment that support hygienic marketing) were classified under 93.33, while some equipment such as roller conveyor, cool box, ice crusher were not available at Cilacap fishing port. Unloading and transportation presented a high average perception in the application above 146.67. There are no auction, sorting on the sorting table, and labelling in the fish handling at hygienic fishing port since there is no auction Cilacap. There was a decreased participation of fishers in fish marketing. Therefore, it is necessary to improve application of hygienic fish handling by repairing the damaged facilities and establishing more additional equipment

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
