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

Pengembangan Buku Pengayaan Jurnal Penyesuaian Berorientasi Berfikir Analitik Bermuatan Profil Pelajar Pancasila
Pengembangan buku pengayaan jurnal penyesuaian berorientasi berfikir analitik bermuatan profil pelajar pancasila didasarkan pada hasil pengamatan dilapangan bahwa materi jurnal penyesuaian pada buku yang sudah beredar masih kurang mendalam. Disisi lain jurnal penyesuaian masih menjadi bahasan yang dirasa sulit bagi peserta didik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menghasilkan prototipe buku pengayaan jurnal penyesuaian berorientasi berfikir analitik bermuatan profil pelajar pancasila. Metode penelitian menggunakan jenis Research and Development (R&D) Borg & Gall dimana peneliti hanya melaksanakan sampai dengan tahap ke 5 yakni tahap revisi desain. Penelitian dilakukan di SMA Negeri 4 Tegal sejumlah 67 peserta didik dan 5 pendidik dari lima sekolah negeri di kota Tegal. Validasi buku pengayaan jurnal penyesuaian dilakukan oleh ahli materi akuntansi, ahli perbukuan dan ahli pancasila. Hasil uji validasi menunjukkan perolehan skor secara keseluruhan penilaian oleh ahli memperoleh rerata 90,1 dengan kategori sangat baik
Evaluasi Kinerja Penilik PAUD Non Formal Berdasarkan Kompetensi Supervisi Akademik Menggunakan Model CIPP di Kabupaten Tegal
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi kinerja Penilik PAUD Non Formal di Kabupaten Tegal berdasarkan kompetensi supervisi akademik dengan menggunakan model CIPP. Evaluasi dilakukan pada empat komponen utama, yaitu Context, yang mencakup analisis dasar hukum dan urgensi supervisi akademik; Input, yang menilai kompetensi, sumber daya, serta kesiapan fasilitas dalam mendukung supervisi akademik; Process, yang mengkaji metode pelaksanaan supervisi, kendala yang dihadapi, serta efektivitas bimbingan yang diberikan; dan Product, yang mengevaluasi dampak supervisi akademik terhadap peningkatan mutu pendidikan PAUD Non Formal di Kabupaten Tegal. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain evaluatif berbasis metode kualitatif. Data deskriptif, termasuk perkataan dan tindakan masyarakat, akan dihasilkan oleh penelitian ini. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Populasi penelitian mencakup seluruh Penilik PAUD Non Formal di Kabupaten Tegal serta pendidik dan tenaga kependidikan yang menjadi sasaran supervisi akademik. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis melalui tahapan pengumpulan data, reduksi data, penyajian data, serta penarikan dan verifikasi kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa supervisi akademik memiliki dasar hukum yang kuat, namun masih terdapat keterbatasan dalam pemahaman lembaga PAUD terhadap kebijakan ini, sehingga diperlukan sosialisasi lebih lanjut. Dari sisi input, jumlah penilik masih terbatas, dan fasilitas pendukung belum memadai, menyebabkan pendampingan belum optimal meskipun penilik memiliki kompetensi dasar yang baik. Pada aspek proses, supervisi akademik dilakukan melalui observasi, wawancara, dan evaluasi dokumen, namun terkendala oleh keterbatasan waktu, koordinasi yang kurang efektif, serta resistensi dari beberapa kepala PAUD. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan pendekatan yang lebih fleksibel dan partisipatif. Dari evaluasi hasil, supervisi akademik terbukti memberikan dampak positif terhadap peningkatan kompetensi pendidik, kualitas pengelolaan PAUD, serta implementasi kurikulum, terutama dalam perencanaan pembelajaran, penerapan metode pengajaran, dan asesmen perkembangan anak. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat menjadi dasar bagi upaya peningkatan kinerja penilik PAUD melalui penguatan kebijakan, optimalisasi sumber daya, serta pengembangan metode supervisi yang lebih efektif dan berbasis praktik di lapangan
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
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
