Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
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

The Loose Interpretation of Dominus Litis Principle in Marriage Dispensation for Underage Marriage in Banten
Full text linkThe judges of Religious Courts play a crucial role in reducing underage marriages. The judges can consider marriage dispensation by emphasizing the principle of dominus litis, which can be understood as a case controller. Since the Religious Courts in Banten have granted considerable dispensation appeals, the early-age marriages have increased significantly. This research examines the implementation of the dominus litis principle and the difficulties in establishing the grounds for urgent marriage dispensation. The data were collected via observations and interviews with the judges, former judges, lawyers, and societies. This research employs the juridical-empirical research technique, examining several facts and data generated by the public. The study reveals that to approve marriage dispensation, the judges of ReligiousCourts merely focus on the legal truth from the applicants’ statements, the underage marriage candidates, witnesses from applicants’ immediate families, and document evidence presented with the application. Judges rarely summon additional witnesses from specialists and professionals focusing on the children’s issues, which might strengthen formal legal evidence. The court granted the request to safeguard the children from immoral behavior, contradicting the common public ethics and morals and ignoring a significant principle of dominus litis. Abstrak: Hakim Pengadilan Agama memiliki peran penting untuk menekan kasus perkawinan dini. Hakim dapat mempertimbangkan dispensasi nikah dengan menekankan prinsip dominus litis, yaitu hakim sebagai pengendali perkara. Sejak permohonan dispensasi banyak dikabulkan oleh pengadilan agama di Banten, perkawinan dini di Banten mengalami peningkatan secara signifikan. Studi ini menganalisis penerapan "dominus litis principle" dan kendalanya dalam pembuktian alasan mendesak dispensasi nikah. Data diperoleh dari hasil observasi dan wawancara dengan hakim, mantan hakim, pengacara dan masyarakat. Penelitian ini menerapkan motode penelitian hukum yuridis-empiris yang berfokus pada penilaian terhadap berbagai fakta dan data dari masyarakat. Hasil analisis menunjukan bahwa hakim Pengadilan Agama umumnya hanya bertugas mencari kebenaran formil dari keterangan pemohon, anak yang dimohonkan dispensasi, saksi-saksi dari orang dekat pemohon, dan bukti dokumen yang diajuan oleh pemohon. Hakim jarang sekali mendatangkan saksi tambahan dari para ahli dan profesional lain yang berhubungan dengan dunia anak yang bisa menguatkan alat bukti. Hakim memutuskan untuk mengabulkan permohonan dengan alasan menjauhkan anak dari tindak asusila yang bertentangan dengan etika dan moral yang berlaku di tengah masyarakat umum dan mengabaikan peran penting prinsip dominus litis
