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
MULTIMEDIA DEVELOPMENT OF ENGLISH VOCABULARY LEARNING IN PRIMARY SCHOOL
Full text linkThis research study is aimed at: (1) developing multimedia of English vocabulary instruction in yearfive
of the elementary school, (2) revealing the quality of the developed instructional multimedia viewed from
the aspects of content, instruction, appearance, and programming, (3) revealing the aspect of attraction of the
developed instructional multimedia, and (4) revealing the learning mastery of the students after using the
developed multimedia. This study was developmental research. The research validators included one expert in
English education and one expert in instructional multimedia. The research subjects consisted of three students
for the one-to-one try-out and twenty students for the large group try-out. The instruments employed in this
study were a questionnaire, observation guide, and pre-test and post-test. The data were analyzed by using
descriptive statistics. The findings of the study are: (1) the development of English vocabulary instructional
multimedia in year-five of the elementary school proceeded in six steps, namely, analyzing, designing,
producing, validating, revising, and trying-out; (2) the quality of the developed instructional multimedia viewed
from the aspect of content, instructional, appearance, and programming is good. The score range of 1 to 5, the
content aspect shows a mean score of 3.75, the instructional aspect shows a mean score of 3.71, the appearance
aspect shows a mean score of 3.87, and the aspect of programming shows a mean score of 3.75; (3) the aspect
of attractiveness shows that the developed instructional multimedia was very interesting: in the one-to-one
tryout, of the three students observed, two students indicated that the product attraction was very interesting,
and one student indicated that the product attraction was interesting; in the large group try-out, of the twenty
students observed, twelve students indicated that the product was very interesting, and eight students indicated
that the product was interesting; and (4) learning by using instructional multimedia has good impact on
students’ mastery learning: in the large group try-out, out of twenty students, nineteen students (95%) have
accomplished mastery learning in the English vocabulary instruction
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
Pengaruh Perilaku Kewirausahaan Terhadap Kinerja Usaha Ikan Asin di Muara Angke
No full textSalah satu tolak ukur kinerja usaha yakni perilaku kewirausahaan, sehingga
adanya konsep perilaku kewirausahaan pada pelaku usaha merupakan hal yang
penting, karena akan berdampak pada kinerja usaha. Di Indonesia UMKM hampir
sebagian besar menguasai sektor usaha, khususnya bidang pertanian, perikanan,
dan peternakan. Besarnya perkembangan UMKM di Indonesia diikuti oleh
besanya potensi sumber daya yang dimiliki. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari luas laut dan
jumlah pulau yang besar sehingga Indonesia memiliki potensi sumber daya
kelautan yang besar. Melihat pentingnya peranan UMKM ikan asin ini maka
diperlukan pelaku usaha yang memiliki perilaku kewirausahaan untuk
meningatkan kinerja usaha industri yang diharapkan dapat membantu
pengembangan dan keberhasilan usaha. Akan tetapi pelaku usaha ikan asin di
Muara Angke memiliki masalah dari usaha ikan asinnya yakni fluktuasi
ketersediaan bahan bakudan harga, sehingga berdampak pada kuantitas, kualitas
dan kontinuitas produksi usaha ikan asin di Muara Angke. Usaha ini juga
berkendala pada keterbatasan modal serta tempat produksi yang baik dan modern,
sehingga dapat dikatakan bahwa pelaku usaha ikan asin masih kurang berani
mengambil risiko dan berinovasi dalam menghasilkan produk.

kinerja usaha ikan asin di Muara Angke. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Muara
Angke, Jakarta Utara, Provinsi DKI Jakarta yang merupakan sentra usaha
pengolahan ikan asin. Sampel ditetapkan dengan metode purposive sampling,
sehingga diperoleh 120 orang pelaku usaha ikan asin.
Karakteristik pelaku usaha ikan asin digambarkan melalui analisis deskriptif,
dan analisis kuantitatif menggunakan Partial Least Square (PLS) dengan bantuan
software SmartPLS 3.0 yang digunakan untuk menganalisis pengaruh faktor
individu dan lingkungan terhadap perilaku kewirausahaan serta pengaruh perilaku
kewirausahaan terhadap kinerja usaha. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa
mayoritas pelaku usaha ikan asin di Muara Angke merupakan mata pencaharian
utama dengan sumber modal dari dana pribadi. Adapun karakteristik pelaku usaha
ikan asin di Muara Angke terdiri dari; (1) mayoritas berjenis kelamin laki-laki dan
berada pada kisaran usia produktif yakni antara 41-50 tahun; (2) masih
