    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

    anyak lembaga di Indonesia dengan cepat mengalihkan program pendidikan ke pembelajaran online dengan persiapan minimal dikarenakan pandemi COVID-19. Hal ini membuat keadaan yang disebut Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) yang didefinisikan sebagai perubahan sementara secara mendadak dari pembelajaran interaksi secara luar jaringan (luring) ke dalam jaringan (daring) sebagai dampak yang disebabkan oleh bencana. Penting bagi tenaga pendidik untuk mengetahui hal utama pada penggunaan media pembelajaran online. Penelitian ini bertujuan mencari rekomendasi kriteria dan alternatif pada penggunaan media pembelajaran online dari sudut pandang tenaga pendidik dengan menggunakan metode Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) yang cocok untuk membuat peringkat masalah. Metode ini merupakan pengambilan keputusan kelompok yang menggunakan proses pemeringkatan secara luas dan dalam berbagai bidang. Instrumen penelitian berupa angket yang telah diisi oleh tenaga pendidik yaitu dosen dan guru dengan jumlah 13 responden. Penelitian ini menghasilkan bahwa kriteria dan alternatif pada posisi pertama untuk penggunaan media pembelajaran online yaitu kriteria kemudahan pengoperasian (K1) dan alternatif fastness (A1). Penelitian selanjutnya diharapkan dapat dieksplorasi untuk menerapkan metode AHP dalam aspek lain dalam pembelajaran online. Many institutions in Indonesia swiftly shifted their educational programs to online learning with minimal preparation due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This has resulted in a situation termed as Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT), defined as a temporary and abrupt shift from offline (face-to-face) to online (virtual) instructional delivery as a consequence of a disaster. It is crucial for educators to grasp key aspects of utilizing online learning media. This research aims to identify recommended criteria and alternatives for the use of online learning media from the educators’ perspective, employing the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, which is suitable for ranking issues. This method involves a group decision�making process that employs comprehensive and multidimensional ranking in various domains. The research instrument comprises a questionnaire filled out by educators, including lecturers and teachers, totaling 13 respondents. The study reveals that the top-ranked criteria and alternative for the use of online learning media are the ease of operation criterion (K1) and the fastness alternative (A1). Future research is encouraged to further explore the application of the AHP method in other aspects of online learning

    Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya keterlibatan siswa dari kelompok urutan lahir anak bungsu dibanding anak sulung dan tengah sehingga menyebabkan kekhawatiran jika dibiarkan terus menerus akan mempengaruhi pengalaman belajar mereka menjadi kurang efektif. Penelitian untuk mengetahui kecenderungan umum perbedaan tingkat keterlibatan siswa berdasarkan urutan kelahiran. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode deskriptif komparatif. Sampel yang digunakan adalah sampel jenuh yaitu seluruh peserta didik kelas X SMA Negeri 1 Cipongkor Tahun Ajaran 2020/2021 yang berjumlah 206 orang. Data diperoleh dari hasil penyebaran instrumen berupa angket mengenai keterlibatan siswa. Analisis perbandingan dilakukan dengan menguji probability value (p-value) menggunakan teknik One Way Anova melalui aplikasi SPSS pada skor keterlibatan siswa setiap kelompok urutan kelahiran. Hasil menunjukan keterlibatan siswa secara keseluruhan berada pada kategori tinggi. Selanjutnya hasil analisis perbandingan menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan signifikan dari masing-masing skor keterlibatan siswa berdasarkan urutan kelahiran. Rekomendasi penelitian yaitu bagi guru BK dapat merancang program bimbingan dan konseling yang mampu mengarahkan keterlibatan siswa yang tinggi melalui bimbingan kelompok. Kata Kunci : Keterlibatan Siswa, Urutan Kelahiran This research was motivated by the low engagement of students from the youngest birth order group compared to the eldest and middle children, causing concern that if allowed to continue it would affect their learning experience to be less effective. Research to determine the general trend of differences in the level of student involvement based on birth order. This research uses a quantitative approach with a comparative descriptive method. The sample used was a saturated sample, namely all 10th grade students of SMA Negeri 1 Cipongkor for the 2020/2021 academic year, totaling 206 people. Data obtained from the results of distributing instruments in the form of questionnaires regarding student engagement. Comparative analysis was carried out by testing the probability value (p-value) using the One Way Anova technique through the SPSS application on student involvement scores for each birth order group. The results show that the overall student involvement is in the high category. Furthermore, the results of the comparison analysis show that there is no significant difference between the scores for student involvement based on birth order. The research recommendation is that counseling teachers can design guidance and counseling programs that are able to direct high student involvement through group guidance.

    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
