    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

    Abstract: Government policies related to notary institutions from the beginning of their emergence until now, it has not been able to provide certainty related to the independence of the Notary Position in the order of the National legal system. Is it purely as a public official like a state official, or is the legal profession, and or is a Public Official combined with a legal profession position because it influences his responsibilities. This study aims to find out how the position and responsibilities of a notary in the current national legal system, this research method uses a juridical normative approach method that is analyzed descriptively analytically on the basis of data that is processed in a juridical way qualitatively, logically and systematically. From the results of the study note that the Notary has a position as a "Public Official" based on “the provisions of Article 1868 of the Civil Codeâ€, UUJN, and other relevant laws. Notary public is also said to be a "professional position" because it has the skills and is done continuously to serve the interests of the community in the sphere of civil (Private). The notary\u27s responsibility as a "Public Official" arises when the notary carries out the authority regulated under the UUJN and is responsible for carrying out his position to the client as well as to the government that has appointed him. The professional responsibility of a notary public arises when applying his skills in serving the community and being responsible to himself and his professional organization.Abstrak: Berbagai kebijakan pemerintah sehubungan dengan lembaga kenotariatan dari awal kemunculannya hingga saat ini, belum dapat memberikan kepastian terkait dengan independensi kedudukan notaris dalam tatanan sistem hukum nasional. Apakah murni sebagai pejabat umum layaknya pejabat negara, ataukah profesi hukum, dan ataukah pejabat umum yang dipadukan dengan jabatan profesi hukum karena hal tersebut berpengaruh terhadap tanggung jawabnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan kedudukan serta tanggung jawab notaris dalam tatanan sistem hukum nasional saat ini, metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode pendekatan yang dilakukan secara yuridis normatif  yang dianalisis secara deskriptif analitis atas dasar data yang diolah secara yuridis kualitatif, logis dan sistematis. Dari hasil penelitian diketahui bahwa notaris mempunyai kedudukan sebagai “pejabat umum†didasarkan pada ketentuan “pasal 1868 kuhperdataâ€, uujn, serta perundang-undangan terkait lainnya. Notaris juga dikatakan sebagai “jabatan profesi†karena memiliki keterampilan dan dilakukan secara terus menerus untuk melayani kepentingan masyarakat dalam lingkup keperdataan (privat). Tanggung jawab notaris sebagai “pejabat umum†muncul ketika notaris melaksanakan kewenangan yang diatur berdasarkan uujn dan bertang­gung­jawab terhadap pelaksanaan jabatannya kepada klien serta kepada pemerintah yang telah mengangkatnya. Tanggung jawab professional dari seorang notaris muncul ketika menerapkan keterampilannya dalam melakukan pelayanan pada masyarakat dan bertanggungjawab kepada diri sendiri serta organisasi profesinya

    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

    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
