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
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
MEREK SEBAGAI STRATEGIC ASSET DAN DINAMIKA PERSAINGANNYA DI INDUSTRI KONSUMSI (STUDI EMPIRIK MEREK YANG MEMPEROLEH IBBA 2011)
Merek merupakan salah satu sumberdaya penting bagi perusahaan. Saat ini, merek tidak lagi memainkan peranan sebagai pemberi identitas produk, pemberi pembeda produk dibandingkan dengan pesaing ataupun sekedar logo, simbol atau nama merek. Merek harus dipandang sebagai sumberdaya stratejik (strategic asset) yang dapat meningkatkan kapabilitas dan kompetensi inti perusahaan dalam usahanya meraih keunggulan daya saing.Penelitian ini mencoba mengkaji merek sebagai strategic asset dan dinamika persaingannya di industri. Secara spesifik, penelitian ini ingin mengidentifikasi merek sebagai salah satu sumberdaya perusahaan yang dapat mempengaruhi keunggulan bersaing berkelanjutan perusahaan. Merek-merek yang dianalisis dalam penelitian adalah yang ikut dalam program Indonesia Best Brand Award (IBBA) 2011 yang diselenggarakan oleh majalah SWA dan lembaga riset MARS. Analisis dikaitkan dengan kriteria VRIN (Valuable, Rare, Inimitability, Non-substituability).Secara keseluruhan, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa sepuluh merek yang masuk pada kategori pemenang IBBA 2011 adalah merek yang dimiliki oleh produsen atau perusahaan yang sudah lama ada di industri sehingga memiliki kemampuan untuk berpromosi melalui periklanan secara intensif. Hal tersebut secara langsung mempengaruhi dinamika persaingan di industri. Dan secara spesifik dapat dinyatakan sebagai sumberdaya stratejik perusahaan, meskipun kriteria VRIN yang terpenuhi hanyalah valuable.Keyword: persaingan di industri, merek, sumberdaya stratejik, vri
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

PROSES INTERNASIONALISASI PERUSAHAAN : DESAIN STRATEGIS & ORGANISASI (STUDI KASUS UKM DI KOTA BANDUNG)
Internasionalisasi sebuah perusahaan merupakan salah satu tahapan pertumbuhan perusahaan, khususnya pertumbuhan pasar. Internasionalisasi menjadi cita-cita hampir seluruh perusahaan, tidak terkecuali perusahaan dengan skala kecil dan menengah atau yang dikenal dengan istilah UKM. Moda untuk melakukan internasionalisasi terdiri atas dua yaitu dengan menggunakan modal (Equity Mode) dan yang tidak menggunakan modal (Non-equity Mode). Sejalan dengan itu, proses internasionalisasi sebuah perusahaan akan berkaitan pula dengan evolusi strategi serta desain organisasinya. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengeksplorasi proses internasionalisasi sebuah perusahaan, khususnya Usaha Kecil dan Menengah di Bandung yang saat ini sedang dalam pertumbuhan bisnisnya, yaitu PT. Bumbu Desa. PT. Bumbu Desa berencana memperluas jangkauan pasarnya di kancah internasional, khususnya Amerika Serikat dan wilayah negara-negara ASEAN. Penelitian ini juga bertujuan untuk mengkaji berbagai literatur mengenai proses internasionalisasi terkait dengan strategi dan desain organisasinya. Secara spesifik, desain organisasi akan dibahas dalam penelitian lanjutan. Berdasarkan data yang terkumpul melalui proses wawancara teridentifikasi bahwa PT. Bumbu Desa menggunakan moda Franchising yang termasuk dalam Non-equity Mode of Entry dalam usahanya memasuki pasar luar negeri. Sementara itu, evolusi perusahaan melalui tahapan: (1) internasionalisasi dengan menggunakan moda ekspor dan strategi home replication, (2) multicountry melalui joint venture dan strategi multidomestic dan (3) global melalui wholly owned subsidiary dengan strategi global dan transnational
