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
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
PENYALAHGUNAAN NARKOBA DI KALANGAN REMAJA DALAM PERSPEKTIF ISLAM
Indonesia is threatened by the danger of drugtrafficking (narcotics, psychotropic and other addictive substances) and its misuse. In the perspective of Islam, the drugtrafficking synonymous with the wine (Al Khamr). It is banned for users, dealers, and manufacturers. Drugtrafficking and its misuse is dangerous because it can affect the nervous system, resulting in addiction and dependence. Drugs lead to changes in behavior, feeling, perception, and consciousness. In the perspective of Islam, there are three important things to consider in order to prevent the dissemination of drugs, namely: increasing piety of each individual community to God, to enforce the criminal justice system consistent implementation, and recruiting law enforcement officials are cautiousKeywords: Parents, interest in reading, children
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
PERAN GURU PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM DALAM MEMBANGUN SELF CONTROL REMAJA DI SEKOLAH
Self control is the ability of the individual to inhibit or prevent an impulse from appearing in the form of behavior that violates or contradicts moral standards. In another definition self-control is a network that is intact or integrated between individuals and their environment. Individuals who have high self-control seek to find and apply appropriate ways to behave in varied situations. Self-control affects individuals to change their behavior according to social situations so as to manage the impression of being more responsive to situational, flexible, and warm and open guidelines. Self-control is concerned with how the individual controls his emotions and drives from within himself. According to the scientific concept, emotion control means directing emotional energy to a useful and socially acceptable expression channel. Teachers' efforts in establishing adolescent self-control means the efforts or endeavors undertaken by a teacher attain a goal in the process of building the ability of the individual adolescent to inhibit or prevent an impulse from appearing in the form of behavior that violates or contradicts moral standards. In building self-control teenagers in school, of course, a teacher must first have a good self-control and strong, so it can be used as a mirror for them. Based on the above description, there are two issues that will be discussed, namely: 1) How the role of Islamic Religious Education Teacher in building self-control teenagers in school, 2) What efforts can be done Islamic Teachers in building self-control teenagers in school. From the discussion can be concluded: 1) Islamic education teachers have a very important and strategic role in building self-control teenagers in school. PAI Teachers have to act as mentors, advisors, models or models and evaluators in building self-control teenagers 2) The efforts made by PAI teachers in building self-control teenagers in schools, among others through the following activities: a) Educate by giving exemplary, b) Educate by implementing a policy of supervision and counseling together, c) Educate by doing habituation, d) Educate by fostering the discipline of learners
