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
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
STUDI KASUS: EVALUASI DAN STRATEGI DESAIN RUMAH HUNIAN UNTUK ORANG TUA PENSIUNAN
In Indonesia, retirement is understood as the period when workers stop working after working for a certain period of time. They experiencing a transition phase of their life as they are doing different daily routine from the productive phase before. They are experiencing changes physically and mentally. There are urgency to make good quality environment for retired elderly in their living space. House is a good choice for elderly to be aging in place as they have sense of belonging on it. Because of that, house needs to be redesigned based on how the changes experienced by the elderlies. Here, the study will evaluate a house as in Gresik as a case study for retired elderly and give design strategy proposal to make it elderly-friendly. The method used here are descriptive method which strategies are literature review, observation and interview, problem analysis, and looking forward proposal. The main problem of the house is no adequate ventilation inside, slippery floor covering, and no outdoor space to allow elderly for being active. The strategy proposed are making outdoor space at the back as laundry area and garden, make stack-effect ventilation, and change the floor covering with anti-slip and low-pile carpet material. The existence of a garden will support the positive feelings of parents and other residents.Di Indonesia, masa pensiun dipahami sebagai masa dimana pekerja berhenti bekerja setelah bekerja dalam kurun waktu tertentu. Mereka mengalami perubahan secara fisik dan mental. Terdapat urgensi untuk membuat kualitas lingkungan yang baik untuk tempat tinggal orang tua pensiunan. Rumah hunian menjadi salah satu pilihan untuk orang tua menghabiskan masa tua karena mereka telah memiliki rasa memiliki atau sense of belonging terhadap tempat tinggalnya. Oleh karena itu, rumah perlu untuk direnovasi berdasarkan perubahan yang dialami dari para orang tua. Studi ini bertujuan mengevaluasi rumah tinggal di Gresik sebagai studi kasus untuk orang tua pensiunan dan memberikan usulan strategi desain yang lebih ramah untuk orang tua. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif dengan strategi kajian literatur, observasi dan interview, analisis permasalahan, dan usulan strategi desain. Permasalahan utama dalam rumah tinggal yang dikaji adalah kurangnya ventilasi di dalam rumah, penutup lantai yang licin, dan tidak ada ruang luar untuk orang tua agar lebih aktif. Strategi desain yang diusulkan adalah membuat ruang luar di area belakang rumah sebagai ruang cuci dan taman, membuat ventilasi stack-effect, dan mengubah penutup lantai dengan material anti-slip dan karpet low-pile. Keberadaan taman akan mendukung perasaan positif orang tua dan penghuni lainnya
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
