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
Pengaruh Zakat Performance Ratio terhadap Return on Asset pada Bank Syariah Indonesia
Get PDFPerkembangan perbankan syariah di Indonesia mengalami peningkatan signifikan dalam beberapa tahun terakhir. Salah satu tanggung jawab penting dari bank syariah adalah penyaluran zakat sebagai wujud pelaksanaan prinsip syariah dan bentuk tanggung jawab sosial. Namun, sejauh mana pengelolaan zakat—yang diukur melalui Zakat Performance Ratio (ZPR)—berpengaruh terhadap kinerja keuangan bank syariah, khususnya pada indikator Return on Assets (ROA), masih menjadi perdebatan dan belum banyak dikaji secara mendalam. Permasalahan yang diangkat dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana pengaruh Zakat Performance Ratio terhadap Return on Assets pada Bank Syariah Indonesia. Fokus permasalahan tersebut dijabarkan menjadi dua pertanyaan penelitian, yaitu: 1) Apakah Zakat Performance Ratio berpengaruh terhadap Return on Assets? 2) Seberapa besar pengaruh Zakat Performance Ratio terhadap Return on Assets pada Bank Syariah Indonesia? Untuk menjawab permasalahan tersebut, penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian eksplanatori. Data yang digunakan berupa laporan keuangan triwulanan Bank Syariah Indonesia dari tahun 2019 hingga 2023, yang dianalisis menggunakan metode statistik regresi linier sederhana. Proses analisis dilakukan dengan bantuan software IBM SPSS versi 27, yang juga mencakup uji asumsi klasik dan uji signifikansi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Zakat Performance Ratio tidak memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap Return on Assets pada Bank Syariah Indonesia. Berdasarkan uji parsial (t-test), nilai t-hitung < t-tabel (-1,532 < 1,724) dengan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,143 > 0,05, sehingga hipotesis nol (H0) diterima dan hipotesis alternatif (H1) ditolak. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa meskipun zakat merupakan kewajiban penting secara syar’i dan sosial, dalam konteks pengaruhnya terhadap kinerja keuangan (ROA) bank syariah, ZPR belum memberikan kontribusi yang berarti selama periode penelitian berlangsung
Analisis Faktor Demografi terhadap Tingkat Literasi Keuangan Syariah Santri UNIA Prenduan
Get PDFBerbagai studi menunjukkan bahwa tingkat literasi keuangan syariah di kalangan santri masih belum optimal. Salah satu penyebab utamanya adalah keterbatasan materi pendidikan yang berfokus pada literasi keuangan syariah serta kurangnya paparan terhadap produk-produk keuangan syariah dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh faktor demografi terhadap tingkat literasi keuangan syariah santri UNIA Prenduan, baik secara simultan maupun parsial, serta untuk mengukur seberapa besar pengaruh faktor demografi tersebut terhadap tingkat literasi keuangan syariah santri di lembaga keuangan syariah. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif yang bertujuan untuk menjelaskan fenomena atau memahami pola melalui cara-cara yang terukur. Data yang dikumpulkan dianalisis secara statistik untuk memberikan gambaran yang jelas dan objektif mengenai fenomena yang diteliti. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari dua faktor demografi yang diteliti, yaitu usia dan pendidikan, hanya variabel pendidikan yang berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap tingkat literasi keuangan syariah santri UNIA Prenduan. Hal ini dibuktikan melalui hasil uji t (parsial) dengan nilai t-hitung sebesar -3,920 > t-tabel 1,998 dan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,000 < 0,05, sehingga H₁ diterima. Sebaliknya, variabel usia tidak menunjukkan pengaruh yang signifikan, dengan nilai t-hitung sebesar -0,155 < t-tabel 1,998 dan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,877 > 0,05, sehingga H₁ ditolak. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa tingkat pendidikan memengaruhi literasi keuangan syariah santri, sedangkan usia tidak memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan dalam konteks penelitian in
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
