Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
No full text“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

No full textDesigning chairs in the 20 th century was marked by the efforts to reduce dependency on nature while accelerating issues of the environment and also motivating people to explore their creativity wider. As an implementation of the above aims, several chairs were designed with attempts to explore new values, one of which was material exploration. These attempts include the emergence of new values on many kind of experiments such as the finishing, processing, structure, ergonomics, and which are eventually directed to the final chair form. This research uses the qualitative method of approach with emphasis on the aesthetic meaning and logic of the experimental chair. The aims include identifying the principles of designing experimental chairs through several analyses such as the analysis of experiments that had been done and the analysis of form and function. The research was also undertaken using the methods of description and comparison to analyze the aesthetic values of experimental chairs. Results revealed that the forms produced on experimental chairs were more to be impacted by the process of production elements like materials, color, structure, manufacturing, and finishing that eventually establishes new forms that are more unique and unusual than conventional chairs. The new forms seen on experimental chairs reflect more of contemporary and postmodern values. Contemporary values are represented by the visual uniqueness that relates to contemporary aesthetics while postmodern values were showed by the concept of universality inside it. It is hoped that the conclusions of this paper would determine the direction and orientation of experimental chair design so that it becomes a stimulus chair of deeper chair design development in the futur
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
KAIDAH SEMIOTIKA PADA FURNITURE POSTMODERNISME
No full textAbstract Designing postmodernism product more produces form that purpused to local elements, sfecific, individual, associative , and aesthetic and avoid mass -produce orientation, rational and stiff. It was also in designing furniture. After design processing based on culture reality, cretaing postmodernism furniture are also followed by semiotic meaning. Without ignoring function, the aim of designing process is dominated by form exploring. Development of postmodernism furniture is caused by development of society perspective that purpused to plurality in many fields. material invention are followed by inventing in manufacturing technology, structure, applying texture and color are also become supporting element of birth of postmodernism furniture. That mindset causes some furniture more reach from than function.Postmodernism furniture negless costumer and commercial aspects. So, those design are subjective, irrational, emotional, and expressive. It visualizes uniquely, unnusual, and starnge AbstrakKegiatan perancangan produk yang mengandung nilai-nilai postmodernisme sangat menghindari bentuk-bentuk yang mengarah ke mass -produce orientation, rasional, dan kaku tetapi lebih memilih mengajukan unsur lokal, spesifik, individual, dan asosiatif serta estetika sebagai pertimbangan utama. Begitu juga dalam perancangan furniture-nya. Furniture postmodernism diciptakan dengan bahasa ungkapan semiotika setelah melalui suatu proses perancangan yanng didasari oleh realita budaya pada jamannya. Dominasi eksplorasi bentuk ( Tanpa mengesampingkan fungsi) merupakan tujuan dari proses perancangannya. Berkembangnya furniture postmodernisme disebabkan oleh semakin berkembangnya pola pemikiran masyarakat yang semakin mengarah ke pluralistik dalam berbagai bidang. Perkembangan material, teknologi manufacturing , struktur dan aplikasi tekstur serta warna juga menjadi faktor pendukung laiinya furniture postmodernisme. Dasar pemikiran tersebut menyebabkan beberapa jenis furniture lebih mengutamakan nilai bentuk dibandingkan nilai fungsinya.Furniture post modernisme tidak memperhatikan aspek konsumen serta jauh dari pertimbangan komersial. Hasil yang didaptkan lebih bersifat subyektif, irrasional. emosional, dan ekspresif , serta terkadang bentuk akhir yang dihasilkan secara visual, tidak lazim , dan ane

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
