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
ETIKA KOMUNIKASI PERSPEKTIF AL-QUR’AN: TELAAH KRITIS SOLUSI MENGATASI PROBLEMATIKA HOAX DI MEDIA SOSIAL
Full text linkAbstract. The insistence of the flow of social media must be acknowledged that it brings various consequences in the line of life that must be borne by modern civilization. In addition to offering as an enjoyment of life that tends to be material and physical, social media has brought many negative impacts, especially in the social area. Good communication ethics over time and changing times have eroded. The number of hoax news that is scattered in the media seems to be human food for social media users. The contextualization of the holy book (al-Qur'an) today is the right answer to this modern problem. the main focus in this research is tracking the deep communication ethics of the Qur'an as a solution in responding to the problem of hoaxes on social media. The type of research used is library research, namely research that is used to solve conceptual-theoretical problems. The data sources used in this paper are primary and secondary sources. The analytical method of writing this work is descriptive-analytical.

GERAKAN DAKWAH BIL-LISAN (STUDI TERHADAP TUAN GURU, USTADZ DAN DA’I DI LOMBOK BARAT PROVINSI NUSA TENGGARA BARAT)
Full text linkPenelitian ini merupakan penelitian yang membahas tentang gerakan dakwah di kabupaten Lombok Barat. Adapun yang melatarbelakangi penelitian ini yaitu gerakan dakwah di Lombok, khususnya Lombok Barat yang menjadi lokasi dari penelitian ini dikerjakan oleh tiga kategori mubalig yaitu Tuan Guru, Ustadz dan Da’i (jamaah tabligh). Perbedaan dalam penamaan ketiga mubalig tersebut merupakan istilah lokal bahasa Lombok (suku Sasak) yang menjadi mad‟u dari aktifitas dakwah. Dengan demikian, dalam penelitian ini mencari jawaban atas pertanyaan-pertanyaan dari rumusan masalah pertama, bagaimana model gerakan dakwah Tuan Guru, Ustadz, dan Da’i di Lombok Barat kedua, Bagaimana Tuan Guru, Ustadz dan Da’i saling merespon terhadap model gerakan dakwah masing-masing, sedangkan tujuan dalam penelitian ini menemukan perbandingan dan bagaimana ketiga kategori mubalig saling merespon terhadap gerakan dakwah masing-masing.
Metode penelitian dalam meneliti perbandingan gerakan dakwah Bil-Lisan antara Tuan Guru, Utsadz dan Da’i menggunakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif komparatif tentang gerakan dakwah di Lombok Barat. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian studi kasus (case study) dengan menggunakan teknik wawancara dan observasi dalam mengumpulkan data-data untuk menjawab rumusan masalah kemudian dianalisis dengan metode komparatif guna mendapatkan persamaan dan perbedaan dari perbandingan dakwah tersebut. Penelitian ini juga menggunakan perspektif komunikasi dalam melihat dakwah sebagai sebuah proses komunikasi.
Adapun hasil dari penelitian ini adalah, Pertama, perbedaan antara Tuan Guru, Ustadz dan Da’i tidak hanya berbeda pada penamaan semata melainkan berbeda cara mengaktualisasikan unsur-unsur yang ada pada aktifitas dakwah yaitu konsep dakwah, tujuan dakwah, karakteristik da‟i atau komunikator, pesan dakwah, retorika dakwah dan

strategi dakwah. Perbedaan-perbedaan tersebut memunculkan klaim dan prasangka dari masing-masing kategori mubalig dengan menganggap bahwa dakwah yang dilakukan dengan cara-cara tertentu dari masing-masing mubalig merupakan dakwah yang sesuai dengan dakwah rasul dan paling relevan dalam konteks kekinina masyarakat Lombok. Perbedaan-perbedaan tersebut juga menimbulkan respon yang berbeda dari masyarakat sebagai mad‟u ada masyarakat yang pro dan kontra terhadap dakwah ketiga kategori mubalig tersebut yaitu Tuan Guru, Ustadz dan Da’i
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
