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
R approach in digital financial literacy influence subjective financial well-being
No full textMillennial workers' financial well-being in the digital financial era is nonetheless anxious and insecure. This quantitative study aims to analyze the effect of digital financial literacy on millennial workers' financial well- being through digital financial behavior as a mediator. Well-being is seen subjectively as anxious or secure in
their financial conditions. This study collected data by distributing questionnaires to four hundred twenty-five millennial workers born between 1981 and 2005 actively working in Greater Jakarta as a research sample. Utilizing PLS-SEM and the free software R Studio, the collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics to determine the demographics of the respondents. The study's findings show that millennial workers in Greater Jakarta can improve their financial well-being by developing good digital financial literacy and practicing effective digital financial management behavior in using digital financial products. These workers believe this will alleviate their financial worries or provide security for the future. Following this study's findings, millennial workers must master the management of various digital financial service products early on to make financial decisions safely without worrying about financial well-being in their behavior.El bienestar financiero de los trabajadores millennials en la era financiera digital es, sin embargo, ansioso e inseguro. Este estudio cuantitativo tiene como objetivo analizar el efecto de la alfabetización financiera digital en el bienestar financiero de los trabajadores milenarios a través del comportamiento financiero digital como
mediador. El bienestar se ve subjetivamente como ansioso o seguro en sus condiciones financieras. Este estudio recogió datos mediante la distribución de cuestionarios a cuatrocientos veinticinco trabajadores milenarios nacidos entre 1981 y 2005 que trabajaban activamente en el Gran Yakarta como muestra de investigación. Utilizando PLS-SEM y el software libre R Studio, los datos recogidos se analizaron utilizando estadísticas descriptivas para determinar la demografía de los encuestados. Los hallazgos del estudio muestran que los trabajadores millennials en el Gran Yakarta pueden mejorar su bienestar financiero mediante el desarrollo de una buena educación financiera digital y la práctica de un comportamiento efectivo de gestión financiera digital en el uso de productos financieros digitales. Estos trabajadores creen que esto aliviará sus preocupaciones financieras o proporcionará seguridad para el futuro. Siguiendo los hallazgos de este estudio, los trabajadores millennials deben dominar la gestión de varios productos de servicios financieros digitales desde el principio para tomar decisione
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
PENGUJIAN TIGA ASSET PRICING MODEL TERHADAP EXCESS RETURN PORTOFOLIO PADA NEGARA BERKEMBANG DI ASEAN
Full text linkThe purpose of this study is to confirm the existence of market effects, size effects,
value effects and momentum effects in the portfolio excess return and test how
well the three asset pricing models predict portfolio excess returns for emerging
countries in ASEAN. The unit of analysis in this study is a unit of securities
instruments formed into a stock portfolio of several ASEAN emerging countries.
The research method uses exposfacto with a correlational approach. The data
analysis technique used in this study is multiple regression analysis with three
Asset Pricing Models, namely Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), ThreeFactor
Model
(3FM),
Four-Factor
Model
(4FM).
Portfolio
construction
is
formed
based
on size and value (size-B/M) and based on size and momentum (sizemomentum).
The research hypothesis test results show: 1) The market excess
return (RM-RF) factor has a positive and significant effect on portfolio excess
returns in Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, both in the size-B/M portfolio and
size-momentum portfolio, so that the market effect occurs in these three countries;
2) The size factor (Small Minus Big/SMB) has a positive and significant effect on
portfolio excess returns only in Malaysia, both in the size-B/M portfolio and the
size-momentum portfolio. Therefore, the size effect only occurs in Malaysia; 3)
The value factor (High Minus Low/HML) has a positive and significant effect on
portfolio excess return only in Malaysia and only on the size-B/M portfolio, the
value effect only occurs in Malaysia; 4) The momentum factor (Winner Minus
Losser/WML) has a positive and significant effect on portfolio excess returns in
Thailand and Malaysia, both in size-B/M portfolios and size-momentum
portfolios, and concluded that momentum effects occur in Thailand and Malaysia;
5) Four-Factor Model (4FM) is the best and most accurate estimation model in
estimating portfolio excess returns compared to Three Factors Model (3FM) and
CAPM in Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia both in the size-B/M portfolio and
size-momentum portfolio.

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
