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
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
Progressive Legal Approach In The Reconstruction Of Criminal Sanctions For Corporations Involved In Corruption
Get PDFCorruption crimes committed by corporations have become a serious threat to the economy and public trust. The research method used is normative juridical with an approach to laws and regulations, concepts, and cases. The results of the study show that criminal sanctions for corporations are still formalistic and lack a deterrent effect. However, the corporate criminal sanctions system in corruption cases still has various weaknesses, one of which is the lack of an optimal state financial recovery mechanism. In many cases, even though companies are sentenced to fines, the funds from corruption that have been misused are not fully refundable. This is due to several factors, such as weak regulations related to asset recovery, difficulty in tracking the flow of funds that have been laundered, the length of the legal process, and the abuse of legal procedures by corrupt actors. This weakness has a direct impact on increasing state losses, weakening the deterrent effect for corporations, and decreasing public trust in the legal system. To address this problem, stricter legal reforms are needed in terms of asset seizure and recovery, increased international cooperation in tracking corruption proceeds, and the use of technology in financial investigations. By strengthening the state\u27s financial recovery mechanism, it is hoped that corruption in the corporate sector can be suppressed more effectively, and state finances can be restored optimall
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
REKONSTRUKSI SANKSI PIDANA KEJAHATAN KORPORASI DALAM TINDAK PIDANA KORUPSI YANG BERBASIS NILAI KEADILAN
Get PDFStudi ini bertujuan untuk: (1)Mengetahui penerapan sanksi pidana terhadap
korporasi yang melakukan tindak pidana korupsi saat ini. (2) Mengkaji dan
menganalisis kendala/hambatan penerapan pidana terhadap korporasi yang
melakukan tindak pidana korupsi saat ini. (3) Merekonstruksi sanksi pidana terhadap
korporasi yang melakukan tindak pidana berbasis nilai keadilan.
Studi ini merupakan penelitian yuridis sosiologis. Teknik pengumpulan data
dengan wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Keabsahan data menggunakan
teknik triangulasi sumber, dan teknik analisis data dengan metode analisis interaktif.
Kesimpulan studi ini adalah: (1) Penerapan sanksi pidana terhadap korporasi
yang melakukan tindak pidana korupsi saat ini telah diatur dalam Undang-Undang
Nomor 31 Tahun 1999 sebagaimana diubah dengan Undang-Undang Nomor 20
Tahun 2001 tentang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Korupsi tepatnya pada pasal
Pasal 5 UU No.20 tahun 2001 yang berbunyi :Dipidana dengan pidana penjara
paling singkat 1 (satu) tahun danpaling lama 5 (lima) tahun dan atau pidana denda
paling sedikit Rp50.000.000,00 (lima puluh juta rupiah) dan paling banyak
Rp250.000.000,00 (dua ratus lima puluh juta rupiah). (2) Kendala/hambatan

saat ini adalah (a) Hukuman pidana pokok berupa denda yang tidak maksimal, (b)
Hukuman Pidana Tambahan Berupa Penutupan Seluruh atau Sebagian Perusahaan
Untuk Waktu Paling Lama 1 (satu) Tahun, (c) KUHAP Belum Mengatur Ketentuan
Acara Pidana Korporasi. (4) Rekonstruksi sanksi pidana terhadap korporasi dalam
tindak pidana korupsi yang berbasis nilai keadilan adalah dengan merevisi Undangundang
No.
