    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

    Abstract The change in the BKPK Cooperative system from a conventional pattern to a Sharia pattern in which Islamic legal principles are an important part of the Cooperative's business activities based on fatwas has also an impact on the use of contracts in the collection of funds and in the distribution of funding. Increasing education and socialization that is more structured and systematic after the conversion is absolutely necessary as an effort to increase the competency of the human resources management and members of the Cooperative. As a manifestation of the implementation of the College's tasks, community service activities are carried out using the Pupular Education method, which is devoted to learning with the community or strengthening community abilities, potential and assets. Out of all 30 participants, only 4 (13.3%) have received training on Sharia or Sharia Cooperative training. While the remaining 26 participants (86.7%) had never attended training. The average value of the competency test results of the participants after the training, generally increased. For sharia maqasid competencies, the average pre test score was 6.67 points, an increase of 60% or the average post test score was 16.50 points. The competency value of Fatwa, Deposit Agreement and Financing during pre-test was 16.17 points, increasing by 43% or becoming 28.50 points during post-test. The competency value of the Operational Mechanism during the pre-test was 11.50 points, increasing by 55% or becoming 25.33 points during the post-test. As an accumulation of the three competencies, the average post test score of participants was 72.5 points with the lowest score being 50 points and the highest score being 95 points. Abstrak Perubahan sistem Koperasi BKPK dari pola konvensional menjadi pola Syariah di mana prinsip hukum Islam menjadi bagian penting dalam kegiatan usaha Koperasi dengan berdasarkan fatwa berdampak pula pada penggunaan akad-akad dalam penghimpunan dana maupun dalam penyaluran pembiayaan. Peningkatan edukasi dan sosialisasi yang lebih terstruktur dan sistematis pasca konversi menjadi mutlak dilakukan sebagai upaya peningkatan kompetensi sumber daya manusia pengurus dan anggota Koperasi. Sebagai wujud dari implementasi tugas Perguruan Tinggi, maka dilaksanaknlah kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat dengan menggunakan metode Pendidikan Masyarakat, yakni kegiatan pengabdian yang ditujukan untuk belajar bersama masyarakat atau menguatkan kemampuan, potensi dan aset masyarakat. Dari seluruh peserta pelatihan yang berjumlah 30 orang, hanya sebanyak 4 orang peserta (13.3%) yang sudah pernah mendapatkan pelatihan tentang syariah atau Koperasi Syariah pelatihan. Sedangkan sisanya sebanyak 26 orang peserta (86.7%) belum pernah mengikuti training. Nilai rata-rata hasil test kompetensi para peserta pasca training, umumnya mengalami kenaikan. Untuk kompetensi maqasid syariah, nilai rata-rata pre test adalah 6.67 poin mengalami kenaikan sebesar 60% atau rata-rata nilai post test adalah 16.50 poin. Nilai kompetensi Fatwa, Akad Simpanan dan Pembiayaan saat pre test adalah 16.17 poin mengalami kenaikan sebesar 43% atau menjadi 28.50 poin saat post test. Nilai kompetensi Mekanisme Operasional saat pre test adalah 11.50 poin mengalami kenaikan sebesar 55% atau menjadi 25.33 poin saat post test. Secara akumulasi dari ketiga kompetensi tersebut, nilai rata rata post test peserta adalah 72.5 poin dengan nilai terendah adalah 50 poin dan nilai tertinggi 95 poin

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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
