Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
UPAYA MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN GURU DALAM MEMANFAATKAN LINGKUNGAN SEKOLAH SEBAGAI SUMBER BELAJAR MELALUI KEGIATAN BUZZ GROUP DISCUSSION
Get PDFDari hasil pantauan peneliti selaku Kepala Sekolah, selama ini para guru di SD Negeri 2 Karangduren Kecamatan Pakisaji masih jarang memanfaatkan lingkungan sekolah sebagai sumber belajar. Hasil kegiatan prasiklus menunjukkan bahwa semua guru belum memaksimalkan penggunaan lingkungan sekolah sebagai sumber belajar. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk memberikan penjelasan tentang pelaksanaan kegiatan buzz group discussion dan meningkatkan kemampuan guru dalam memanfaatkan lingkungan sekolah sebagai sumber belajar di SD Negeri 2 Karangduren Kecamaan Pakisaji. Penelitian ini adalah Penelitian Tindakan Sekolah (PTS) dan dilaksanakan dalam 2 siklus. Setiap siklus terdiri dari dua kali pertemuan. Subjek penelitian ini adalah seluruh guru kelas sejumlah 6 orang guru di SD Negeri 2 Karangduren Kecamatan Pakisaji. Instrumen pengumpulan data pada penelitian ini menggunakan lembar observasi yang terdiri dari lembar observasi diskusi, penilaian skenario pembelajaran dan pelaksanaan kegiatan pembelajaran. Hasil observasi pada kegiatan diskusi terdapat peningkatan sebesar 65,17 menjadi 79,50 pada siklus I dan 88,50 pada siklus terakhir. Pada penilaian skenario pembelajaran terdapat peningkatan sebesar 62,50 menjadi 80,00 pada siklus I dan 88,33 pada siklus terakhir. Pada penilaian pelaksanaan pembelajaran peningkatan sebesar 60,50 menjadi 80,00 pada siklus I dan 87,22 pada siklus terakhir. Berdasarkan hasil observasi dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa pelaksanaan pembinaan dengan metode bimbingan diskusi kelompok kecil atau (buzz group discusion) terbukti mampu meningkatkan kemampuan guru-guru di SD Negeri 2 Karangduren dalam menggunakan dan memanfaatkan lingkungan sekitar sebagai sumber belajar peserta didiknya.Kata Kunci: sumber belajar, buzz groud discussio
Hubungan Antara Status Gizi Ibu Hamil Dan Frekuensi Kunjungan Pemeriksaan Kehamilan Dengan Kejadian Kematian Bayi Di Kabupaten Sukoharjo
Get PDFKesehatan anak sebagai bagian dari tujuan Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) dikarenakan masih tingginya angka kematian bayi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara kadar hemoglobin, lingkar lengan atas pada ibu hamil dan frekuensi kunjungan pemeriksaan kehamilan dengan kejadian kematian bayi di Kabupaten Sukoharjo. Jenis penelitian ini adalah observasional dengan pendekatan rancangan case control. Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah dokumen otopsi verbal kematian pada bayi berusia 0-12 bulan sebagai kelompok kasus dan dokumen riwayat kehamilan pada ibu yang melahirkan bayi hidup sebagai kelompok kontrol di Puskesmas Sukoharjo, Polokarto, Mojolaban, Grogol dan Baki. Teknik pengambilan sampel untuk kelompok kasus dengan menggunakan multistage sampling, dan untuk kelompok kontrol menggunakan teknik matching. Uji statistik yang digunakan adalah uji Chi Square dengan menggunakan SPSS 17. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada hubungan antara kadar hemoglobin pada ibu hamil (p=0,013; OR=3,158) dan frekuensi kunjungan pemeriksaan kehamilan (p=0,038; OR=2,677) dengan kejadian kematian bayi di Kabupaten Sukoharjo, serta tidak ada hubungan antara lingkar lengan atas (LILA) pada ibu hamil (p=0,557) dengan kejadian kematian bayi di Kabupaten Sukoharjo
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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
