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
Food Security and Women Case Study of Mahu Country on Saparua Island
Maintaining household food security is a way to overcome food insecurity. Women play an important role to make it happen, one of them is through household businesses. The research was conducted in Mahu Administrative Country on Saparua Island. The method used is descriptive analysis and field observation. Sampling was done purposively (purposive sample) of 24.40% (51 women) from 209 women of working age. The research objectives were (1) to find out the readiness of women to maintain household food security, (2) to find out about women\u27s empowerment programs related to local food, (3) to find out the cooperation between the state government and the community regarding food security. The results showed: (1) household food security is still weak (2) women\u27s empowerment programs have not been maximized, (3) coordination between the government and the community regarding food security needs to be improved
Perubahan Peran Domestik Dan Publik Perempuan Tani Bupolo Serta Strategi Nafkah Rumah Tangga Di Desa Fatmite Kecamatan Namrole, Kabupaten Buru Selatan
Peran perempuan bukan saja di wilayah domestik, tetapi telah memasuki wilayah publik. Penelitian ini bertujun untuk menganalisis perubahan peran perempuan melalui aktivitas domestik dan publik, dan menganalisis peran perempuan dalam strategi nafkah serta sumbangannya terhadap pendapatan rumahtangga. Desa sampel di Kecamatan Namrole dipilih secara sengaja, yaitu Desa Fatmite dengan jumlah informan sebanyak 30 orang perempuan.Women roles are not only in domestic sphere, but has entered public sphere. This research aims to analyze the change of women roles in domestic and public spheres, and also to understand women roles in determination of livelihood strategies and their contribution to household income. Sample village was deliberately chosen, namely Fatmite Village in Namrole District with 30 female informants. Data collection technique involves questionnaire followed by in-depth interview with key informants. Data analysis is focused on the list of daily activities conducted by household women and the calculation of their income. This analysis is aimed to find out the contribution of women to the household income and also their spending proportion. Some results are obtained from this analysis. Women activities in pure domestic category have drained their time for 7 (seven) hours in a day. Women activities in additional domestic category have used their time for 11 (eleven) hours in a day. Total time effusion of women in domesticated activities is 18 hours a day. The contribution of woman to household income is reaching IDR (Indonesian Rupiah) 32,275,000, whereas their average income per month is IDR 2,689,583. Captured fishery, livestock, plantation farming, and crop farming are the kinds of job that provide income to household women
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
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
