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
Revitalisasi Pengembangan Moderasi Beragama pada Era Digital di Indonesia
Get PDFSalah satu sikap yang mampu menengahi perilaku esktrem dalam beragama adalah dengan moderasi beragama. Tujuan penelitian ini sebagai upaya untuk mengetahui perkembangan moderasi beragama yang semakin intensif pada zaman digital di Indonesia. Metode Penelitian dalam riset ini menggunakan studi kepustakaan dan teknik analisanya deskriptif analitis. Sumber primer dalam riset ini berasal dari majalah, buku dan surat kabar. Hasil penelitian, penulis menyimpulkan setidaknya dua permasalahan umat islam; Pertama, kesulitan beberapa golongan dalam mengamalkan islam yang moderat adalah karena mereka hanya melihat teks hukum (al-qur’an dan hadist) tanpa menjelajahi aspek nahwu, shorof, ushul fiqh, balaghoh, mantiq dan seterusnya. Lebih lanjut, mereka cenderung mendikotomikan ulama. Artinya, ulama yang dianggap bukan golongannya, maka mereka cenderung menolak pendapatnya, meskipun yang disampaikannya itu benar. Yang kedua, kecenderungan beragama yang ekstrem dikarenakan faktor hawa nafsu dengan mengikuti konten berita negatif atau hoax yang tersebar di media sosial. Dengan demikian konsep muslim moderat itu muslim yang memiliki prinsip dan sikap tidak melebihi dari ruang yang semestinya, tidak fanatik namun juga tidak longgar dalam menjalankan praktik beragama
Revitalisasi Pendidikan Islam: Tinjauan Pemikiran Hasan Al Banna
No full textHasan al Banna merupakan salah seorang tokoh al Banna sebagai Pembaharu Islam Abad ke-20. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengungkapkan pemikiran Hasan al Banna sebagai salah satu tokoh penting dalam pendidikan Islam. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode library research yang bertujuan untuk mendeskriptif keterkaitan pendidikan islam dengan paradigma pendidikan saat ini, sehingga penelitian ini diharapakan mampu menggali khazanah keilmuan tentang pokok-pokok pemikiran Hasan al Banna. Hasil diskursus menjelaskan bahwa Hasan al Banna memandang bahwa pengembangan akal merupakan kebutuhan pokok bagi setiap muslim yang bisa menunjang keberhasilan dan kesuksesan keyakinan. Dengan pengetahuan dan pengembangan potensi akalnya, manusia akan menjadi paham atas sesuatu yang diyakini dan Islam tidak tidak membenarkan penganutnya menjadi muqallid. Oleh sebab ini, Hasan al Banna menempatkan pembentukan akal sebagai prinsip utama pendidikan dengan didasarkan pada pemahaman al Qur’an yang menermpatkan akal atau ilmu lebih dahulu daripada iman dan taat. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa pemikiran Hasan al Banna dalam dunia pendidikan Islam memberikan konsep pendidikan insan kamil yang merujuk manusia paripurna sebagai khalifah di Dunia
Exploring the Shared Knowledge Repositories Program to Reduce International Credit Transfer (ICT) Students' Academic Stress
Get PDFExposed to a completely different learning environment, international credit transfer students tend to experience severe symptoms of academic stress. Moreover, the lack of research and treatment related to students’ academic stress-coping makes it difficult to measure their stress levels. This article reports on a study that explored the use of shared knowledge repositories to reduce the exchange students’ symptoms of academic stress. Data were collected using a quantitative method in naturalistic settings of three departments at one of the universities that followed the international credit transfer program to Taiwan and India. An inventory test was accordingly adapted to measure changes in the participants after a shared knowledge repositories program was conducted. A total of 20 ICT students from two groups were selected as the sample for the research. Findings were gathered through document analysis, followed by an inventory t-test to investigate changes in the participants after the sharing session program. In this case, the results of the t-test and document analysis suggested that an improvement was seen in the degree of students’ stress coping system. The results indicated that the program requirements for the participant to constantly create and share learning resources and strategies might have reduced students’ stress related to academic expectations and examinations. Besides, the stage of observation and reflection might have contributed to students’ ability to cope with stress in academic self-perceptions.

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
