Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
E-RAISE: Model Integrasi Budaya dalam Pembelajaran Biologi serta Pengaruhnya terhadap Hasil Belajar Kognitif dan Literasi Lingkungan Siswa SMA di Kota Denpasar
No full textABSTRAK Pendidikan berfungsi sebagai sarana transmisi budaya serta pengembangan pengetahuan, sikap, dan keterampilan siswa. Pendidikan di Bali diindikasikan belum menjalankan kedua fungsi tersebut secara ideal. Pertama, budaya Tri Hita Karana belum dapat ditransmisikan secara optimal kepada siswa sehingga keberadaannya dianggap belum memberikan manfaat praktis. Hal itu berimplikasi pada literasi lingkungan siswa. Argumen itu terbukti dari berbagai permasalahan lingkungan yang terjadi di Bali. Hasil penelitian pendahuluan juga menyatakan bahwa literasi lingkungan siswa SMA di Kota Denpasar masih perlu ditingkatkan. Kedua, pendidikan di Bali belum mampu mengembangkan pengetahuan siswa secara optimal. Hal itu ditunjukkan oleh ketidakmampuan siswa mencapai nilai Kriteria Ketuntasan Minimal (KKM) pada mata pelajaran biologi. Masalah itu diduga terjadi karena siswa belum terlibat secara aktif dalam pembelajaran yang disebabkan oleh kecenderungan guru menggunakan model pembelajaran konvensional. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan inovasi model pembelajaran biologi yang dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar kognitif dan memberdayakan budaya Tri Hita Karana yang berimplikasi pada literasi lingkungan siswa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan model pembelajaran biologi berbasis budaya Tri Hita Karana (E-RAISE) serta mengetahui pengaruhnya terhadap hasil belajar kognitif dan literasi lingkungan siswa SMA di Kota Denpasar. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pengembangan yang menggunakan model pembembangan Plomp. Model pengembangan ini terdiri atas tiga tahap yaitu: (1) penelitian pendahuluan; (2) fase pengembangan; dan (3) fase penilaian. Penelitian pendahuluan dilakukan dengan studi pustaka, analisis kebutuhan guru dan siswa, serta analisis materi pelajaran. Fase pengembangan dilakukan dengan merancang produk berupa buku dan perangkat model pembelajaran E-RAISE. Fase pengembangan dilanjutkan dengan proses validasi buku model dan perangkat pembelajaran oleh pakar pembelajaran biologi. Fase penilaian dilakukan dengan uji coba model dan perangkat pembelajaran untuk memeroleh data kepraktisan model pembelajaran, respon siswa, serta saran perbaikan dari praktisi lapangan. Uji keefektifan produk dilakukan menggunakan nonequivalent pretestposttest control group design. Penelitian ini melibatkan 144 orang siswa SMA kelas X dengan rincian 72 siswa SMA Negeri 3 Denpasar dan 72 siswa SMA Negeri 8 Denpasar. Pengambilan kelas dilakukan dengan teknik cluster random sampling yang sebelumnya telah dilakukan uji kesetaraan kelas. Instrumen pengumpulan data menggunakan tes hasil belajar kognitif terintegrasi dengan Environmental Literacy Assessment for Senior High School of Indonesian Students (ELASIS) yang diadaptasi dari Environmental Literacy Assessment of Indonesia Students (ELAIS) (Rahmawati dkk., 2017). ELASIS terdiri atas 25 butir soal domain pengetahuan dengan rentang validitas 0,099-0,653 dan reliabilitas tes 0,770; dua belas (12) butir soal domain keterampilan kognitif dengan rentang validitas 0,241-0,678 dan reliabilitas tes 0,830; delapan belas (18) butir pernyataan dalam angket domain sikap dengan rentang validitas 0,213-0,604 dan reliabilitas angket 0,725; serta 18 butir pernyataan dalam angket domain perilaku dengan rentang validitas 0,199- 0,668 dan reliabilitas angket 0,712. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji Anakova 1 jalur yang sebelumnya telah memenuhi asumsi normalitas dan homogenitas varian. Uji lanjut dilakukan dengan uji Cohen’s d untuk mengetahui effect size yang diberikan oleh variabel bebas terhadap variabel terikat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan integrasi budaya Tri Hita Karana dapat dilakukan pada 5 materi pelajaran biologi SMA kelas X yaitu materi keanekaragaman hayati, klasifikasi makhluk hidup, dunia tumbuhan, ekosistem, dan perubahan lingkungan. Produk yang dikembangkan berupa buku dan perangkat pembelajaran dikategorikan valid dan praktis. Persentase validitas isi buku model pembelajaran yaitu sebesar 91,11% (valid); validitas konstruk buku model pembelajaran sebesar 88,33% (valid); validitas silabus sebesar 89,66% (valid); validitas RPP sebesar 93,19% (valid); validitas LKS sebesar 95,76% (valid); kepraktisan model pembelajaran sebesar 90% (praktis); dan respon siswa terhadap model pembelajaran sebesar 81,51% (sangat positif). Hasil uji keefektifan model pembelajaran menunjukkan bahwa: (1) model pembelajaran E-RAISE memberikan efek ukuran besar terhadap peningkatan hasil belajar kognitif siswa SMA di Kota Denpasar. Dari sudut pandang dimensi kognitif, model pembelajaran E-RAISE memberikan efek ukuran kecil hingga sedang terhadap peningkatan LOTS dan memberikan efek ukuran besar terhadap peningkatan HOTS; (2) model pembelajaran E-RAISE memberikan efek ukuran sedang hingga besar terhadap peningkatan literasi lingkungan siswa SMA di Kota Denpasar. Dari sudut pandang domain literasi lingkungan, model pembelajaran E-RAISE memberikan efek ukuran sedang hingga besar terhadap domain pengetahuan dan keterampilan kognitif literasi lingkungan. Di sisi lain, model pembelajaran E-RAISE belum mampu meningkatkan domain sikap dan perilaku positif siwa terhadap lingkungan secara signifikan karena faktor eksternal di luar model pembelajaran E-RAISE. Berdasarkan paparan tersebut, model pembelajaran E-RAISE dinyatakan valid, praktis, dan efektif untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar kognitif dan literasi lingkungan siswa SMA di Kota Denpasar. Penelitian lebih lanjut direkomendasikan untuk mengungkap pengaruh model pembelajaran E-RAISE terhadap hasil belajar kognitif dan literasi lingkungan dengan menggunakan kontrol positif, melakukan penelitian jangka panjang untuk mengetahui pengaruh model pembelajaran ERAISE terhadap domain sikap dan perilaku terhadap lingkungan, serta mengungkap pengaruh model pembelajaran E-RAISE terhadap keterampilan berpikir abad ke-21
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

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.
