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

Risiko adalah suatu peristiwa atau keadaan yang tidak pasti yang jika terjadi mempunyai akibat positif atau negatif, berpengaruh pada satu atau lebih tujuan proyek. Untuk meminimalisisr penyimpangan dari tujuan maka dilakukan monitoring dan kontrol secara rutin berkala.Perusahaan-perusahaan subkontraktor yang mempunyai reputasi, pengalaman, dan kompetensi menjadi motivasi yang berpengaruh dalam berkontribusi terhadap kualitas kinerja kontruksi.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis pengaruh risiko teknikal, risiko finansial, risiko sumber daya, risiko manajerial, dan risiko komunikasi dari subkontraktor terhadap kualitas kinerja kontruksisecara langsung, dan melalui monitoring dan kontrolsebagai intervening, serta motivasi subkontraktor sebagai moderator.
Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif melalui kuesioner dan dokumentasi. Populasi pada penelitian ini adalah personal yang berinteraksi langsung dengan subkontraktor dari PT. Rekayasa Industri yang terlibat dalam paket pekerjaan yang dikerjaan oleh subkontraktor pada proyek Jambaran Tiung Biru, dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 39 responden.
Berdasarkan hasil analisis SEM-PLS didapatkan hasil risiko teknikal dan risiko sumber daya berpengaruh signifikan secara langsung terhadap kualitas kinerja kontruksi. Risiko finansial dan risiko manajerial memiliki pengaruh tidak langsung secara signifikan melalui monitoring dan kontrol. Risiko teknikal, risiko finansial, risiko sumber daya, risiko manajerial, dan risiko komunikasi yang dimoderasi oleh motivasi memiliki pengaruh yang tidak signifikan terhadap kualitas kinerja kontruksi.

ABSTRACT
Agung Mahendro, Civil Engineering Study Program, Postgraduate Program,National Institute of Technology Malang, January 2024, The Influence of Subcontractor Construction Management on Perfomance Quality Risks at The Gas Unitization Project of Jambaran Tiung Biru in Bojonegoro, Thesis, Supervisor: (I) Prof. Dr. Ir. Sutanto Hidayat, MT, (II) Ir. Maranatha Wijayaningtyas, S.T., M.MT, Ph.D., IPU., ASEAN Eng.
A risk is an uncertain event or situation which, if it occurs, has positive or negative consequences, affecting one or more project objectives. To minimize deviations from objectives, monitoring, and control are carried out regularly. The reputation, experience, and competence of the subcontractor company are motivations that contribute to the influence of risk management on the quality of construction performance. This research aims to analyze the influence of technical risk, financial risk, resource risk, managerial risk, and communication risk from subcontractors on the quality of building construction performance directly, and through monitoring and control as intervening, and subcontractor motivation as moderator.
This study used quantitative approach through questionnaire and documentation. The populations in this study were personnel who interacted directly with subcontractors from PT. Rekayasa Industri who involved in the work package carried out by subcontractors at the Jambaran Tiung Biru project, with samples using 39 respondents. Based on SEM-PLS analysis result, it showed that technical risk, and resource risk have negative and significant effect on the quality of building construction performance.
Financial risk, and managerial risk have a significant indirect influence on the quality of building construction performance through monitoring and control. Technical risk, financial risk, resource risk, managerial risk, and communication risk moderated by motivation has an insignificant influence on the quality of building construction performance.
Key words: construction performance quality, monitoring and control, motivation, risk managemen
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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
