    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

    ABSTRACT The objectives of this research were to know the effect of ewe’s age on curve of milk yield reared on grazing. This research was done in The Jonggol Animal Science Teaching, and Research Unit (JASTRU) located in Singasari Village, Jonggol, Bogor district. As many 100 local sheep comprises of pregnant and lactating ewes on average 1-4 years old were used in this research. The sheeps were grazed from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and housed on night. The result showed that ewe’s age different effect its of curve milk yield. Lactation peak is expected within 1-2 weeks of lambing, followed by a decreasing phase to the 16 weeks. Decreace of theewes 1 year age showed is not stable if comparation the ewes 3-4 year age. Key words : ewes, curve milk yield,grazing system

    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

    Profil Pendapatan Pola Kemitraan Ayam Broiler dengan Peternak Mandiri di Kota Bengkulu (dibawah bimbingan Ir. Siwitri Kadarsih, MS dan Jarmuji, S. Pt. M. Si. 2014. 25 Halaman). Bertujuan untuk mendiskripsikan manajemen dan kelayakan usaha beternak ayam broiler antara pola kerjasama kemitraan dengan peternak mandiri. Industri perunggasan di Indonesia hingga saat ini berkembang sesuai dengan kemajuan perunggasan global yang mengarah kepada sasaran mencapai tingkat efisiensi usaha yang optimal, namun upaya pembangunan industri perunggasan tersebut masih menghadapi tantangan yang mencakup kesiapan daya saing produk, utamanya bila dikaitkan dengan lemahnya kinerja penyediaan bahan baku pakan yang merupakan 60-70 % dari biaya produksi, yang sebagian besar masih sangat tergantung dari impor. Salah satu komoditi perunggasan yang memiliki prospek yang sangat baik untuk dikembangkan adalah peternakan ayam ras pedaging karena didukung oleh karakteristik produknya yang dapat diterima oleh semua masyarakat Indonesia. Perkembangan sub-sektor peternakan khususnya ayam ras pedaging di Kota Bengkulu didukung oleh kebutuhan akan daging ayam yang meningkat, sementara kebutuhan daging ayam kampung belum memenuhi kebutuhan pasar. Oleh sebab itu usaha peternakan harus terus dikembangkan agar hasilnya terus menerus dapat memenuhi kebutuhan masyarakat. Dengan penelitian ini diharapkan dengan adanya beternak ayam broiler pola kerjasama diharapkan dapat meningkatkan pendapatan peternak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui manajemen dan kelayakan usaha beternak ayam broiler antara pola kerjasama kemitraan dengan peternak mandiri. Penelitian dilaksanakan di peternakan Kota Bengkulu. Pemilihan peternakan ditentukan secara Purposive dengan pertimbangan peternak tersebut memiliki pengalaman yang cukup lama dalam kemitraan. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Juli - September 2013. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode survei pada peternak yang memiliki jumlah ternak masingmasing 5.000 ekor/periode yang menjalin kerjasama dengan kemitraan A, kemitraan B dan peternak mandiri. Sampel yang diambil sebanyak 3 peternak. Adapun data yang diambil meliputi data primer dan data sekunder. Data primer adalah data yang diperoleh melalui wawancara langsung dengan peternak responden dengan menggunakan daftar pertanyaan (kuisioner) yang telah disusun terlebih dahulu. Data primer terdiri dari manajemen budidaya ayam broiler. Sedangkan data sekunder dapat diperoleh dari rekording peternak. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, R/C Rasio usaha ternak pola mandiri sebesar 1,22, R/C Rasio usaha ternak pola kemitraan A sebesar 1,20, sedangkan R/C Rasio usaha ternak dengan pola kemitraan B sebesar1,14. Adapun nilai Break Event Point (Rupiah) pada peternakan mandiri sebesar Rp. 1.307.245 peternak pola kemitraan A sebesar Rp. 1.305.417, sedangkan pada peternak pola kemitraan B sebesar Rp. 1.332.989. Berdasarkan data hasil penilitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa usaha peternakan ayam broiler peternak kemitraan A lebih menguntungkan dibandingkan dengan peternak kemitraan. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari besarnya pendapatan peternak. Dimana peternak kemitraan A pendapatannya yaitu Rp. 24.936.690, pendapatan peternak kemitraan B yaitu sebesar Rp. 13.797.869. Sedangkan pendapatan peternak mandiri yaitu sebesar Rp. 22.170.912
