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

Penggunaan stick angka dengan media karet berwarna untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berhitung pada kelompok a di Tk Dharma Wanita Junwangi Kecamatan Krian Kabupaten Sidoarjo
Penelitian ini berlatar belakang dari hasil pengamatan dan pengalaman peneliti bahwa kemampuan anak dalam menjumlah bilangan 1 – 5 masih sangat rendah dari 16 anak hanya sebanyak 4 anak (25%) yang mampu berhitung sedangkan sebanyak 12 anak (75%) lainnya belum mampu berhitung dengan baik ketika hasil penjumlahan mulai angka 6 sampai dengan 10. Peneliti menggunakan stick angka dengan media karet berwarna sebagai alat stimulasi sehingga anak mampu berhitung dengan baik. Rumusan dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana kemampuan berhitung bilangan 1 sampai 5, bagaimana penerapan stick angka dengan media karet berwarna untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berhitung dan bagaimana peningkatan kemampuan berhitung bilangan 1 – 5 melalui penggunaan stick angka dengan media karet berwarna pada kelompok A di TK Dharma Wanita Junwangi kecamatan Krian kabupaten Sidoarjo. Tujuan dari penelitian tindakan kelas ini adalah untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berhitung pada kelompok A di TK Dharma Wanita Junwangi dengan menggunakan Stick Angka dengan media karet berwarna. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan tindakan kelas dengan data yang diperoleh adalah data kualitatif berupa hasil observasi aktivitas guru dan siswa, dan data kuantitatif nilai hasil belajar berupa penilaian rata – rata dan ketuntasan hasil belajar. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan observasi dan dokumentasi. Penelitian tindakan kelas yang digunakan menggunakan model Kurt Lewin dimana proses penelitiannya adalah perencanaan (planning), pelaksanaan (acting), pengamatan atau observasi (observing), refleksi (reflecting). Metode penelitian ini adalah analisis penelitian tindakan kelas Berdasarkan hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketidakmampuan anak dalam berhitung penjumlahan. Beberapa anak terlihat bingung dan terlihat sangat ragu untuk menentukan hasil penjumlahan. Hal ini disebabkan karena kurangnya media pembelajaran sehingga anak belum mampu memahami konsep berhitung dengan baik. kemampuan berhitung pada kelompok A di TK Dharma Wanita Junwangi dengan menggunakan stick angka dengan media karet berwarna dapat meningkat mulai dari pra siklus Peneliti melakukan tindakan pada siklus I yaitu ada 8 anak yang tuntas, pada siklus II ada 14 anak yang tuntas yang mengalami peningkatan yang sebelumnya hanya 4 siswa yang tuntas dalam kemampuan berhitung. Penerapan dan peningkatan kemampuan anak dalam menjumlah bilangan menggunaan stick angka dengan media karet berwarna bilangan 1 – 5 sebagai stimulasi anak mampu berhitung dengan baik
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
