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
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
Efektivitas Organisasi dalam Mendukung Keterbukaan Informasi Publik Melalui Sistem Informasi Rekapitulasi (SIREKAP) di Komisi Pemilihan Umum Kota Medan
No full textThe general election is a means of people's sovereignty as well as the realization of democracy. The year 2020 is a political year in which there are 270 Provinces, Regencies/Cities that carry out regional head elections, one of which is the Province of North Sumatra, the City of Medan. The Recapitulation Information System (Sirekap) is an application tool based on information technology and functions as a means of publishing the results of vote counting and recapitulation of vote counting results, as well as a tool for implementing the recapitulation of election vote counting results. There are problems and obstacles in the application of Sirekap in the 2020 Medan City elections, including: Human Resources, Support Tools for Using Mobile Sirekap Applications, Application Work Systems and Internet Networks. The purpose of this research is to describe Organizational Effectiveness in Supporting the Openness of Public Information Through the Recapitulation Information System (SIREKAP) at the General Election Commission of Medan City.
The research method that the author uses in this research is to use a descriptive method with a qualitative data analysis approach. Interview collection techniques related to SIREKAP the data obtained were then analyzed qualitatively by examining all the data that had been collected using the Gibson effectiveness model theory approach.
The results show that although it can increase the effectiveness and efficiency of overcoming a number of weaknesses in manual recapitulation, the socialization of the use of SIREKAP must be carried out thoroughly from voters to candidate pairs and political parties.The use of SIREKAP cannot be separated from the availability of technological devices such as mobile phones and computers/laptops along with the internet network, so that information on the results of the calculation can be quickly conveyed to the wider community, therefore it is important to make preparations and timelines for plans for implementing SIREKAP in the upcoming elections and local elections.Pemilihan umum (Pemilu) merupakan sarana kedaulatan rakyat sekaligus perwujudan demokrasi. Tahun 2020 ini merupakan tahun politik dimana terdapat
270 daerah Provinsi, Kabupaten/Kota yang melaksanakan pemilihan Kepala Daerah yakni salah satunya Provinsi Sumatera Utara Kota Medan. Sistem Informasi Rekapitulasi (Sirekap) adalah perangkat aplikasi berbasis teknologi informasi dan berfungsi sebagai sarana publikasi hasil penghitungan suara dan rekapitulasi hasil penghitungan suara, serta alat bantu di pelaksanaan rekapitulasi hasil penghitungan suara pemilihan. Terdapat permasalahan dan kendala dalam penerapan sirekap di pilkada Kota Medan tahun 2020 antara lain : Sumber Daya Manusia, Alat Pendukung Penggunaan Aplikasi Sirekap Mobile, Sistem Kerja Aplikasi dan Jaringan Internet. Adapun tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan Efektivitas Organisasi Dalam Mendukung Keterbukaan Informasi Publik Melalui Sistem Informasi Rekapitulasi (SIREKAP) di Komisi Pemilihan Umum Kota Medan.
Metode penelitian yang penulis gunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan analisis data kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan wawancara terkait dengan SIREKAP data yang didapat kemudian dianalisis secara kualitatif dengan menelaah seluruh data yang telah dikumpulkan dengan pendekatan teori model efektivitas Gibson.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun dapat meningkatkan efektivitas dan efisiensi mengatasi sejumlah kelemahan rekapitulasi manual, sosialisasi penggunaan SIREKAP harus dilakukan secara menyeluruh mulai dari pemilih hingga pasangan calon dan partai politik. Penggunaan SIREKAP tidak bisa dilepaskan dari ketersediaan Perangkat Teknologi seperti Handphone dan Komputer/Laptop beserta jaringan internet, agar informasi hasil penghitungan bisa dengan cepat disampaikan ke masyarakat luas, maka dari itu penting membuat persiapan dan timeline untuk rencana penerapan SIREKAP pada PEMILU dan PILKADA mendatang.163 HalamanSkripsi Sarjan

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn 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.
