    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” 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

    Indonesia: Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya konsentrasi belajar dan kedisiplinan belajar siswa tunarungu dalam pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI) di SLB Negeri Cileunyi. Gejala ini terlihat dari kurangnya perhatian siswa saat pembelajaran, seringnya siswa mengobrol saat guru menjelaskan, mengantuk, serta bercanda di tengah pembelajaran. Selain itu, banyak siswa yang terlambat masuk sekolah, tidak patuh dalam mengerjakan tugas, masih bermain di luar kelas setelah jam istirahat selesai, dan kurangnya kesadaran dalam beribadah, terutama shalat. Oleh karena itu, penting untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis penerapan metode pembelajaran kreatif dan inovatif guna membentuk konsentrasi belajar dan kedisiplinan belajar PAI siswa tunarungu. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah (1) menganalisis dasar-dasar pemilihan metode pembelajaran kreatif dan inovatif, (2) menganalisis penerapan metode tersebut dalam membentuk konsentrasi belajar PAI, (3) menganalisis penerapan metode tersebut dalam membentuk kedisiplinan belajar PAI, serta (4) mengidentifikasi faktor pendukung dan penghambat penerapan metode ini dalam membentuk konsentrasi belajar dan kedisiplinan belajar PAI pada siswa tunarungu. Penelitian ini menggunakan teori Konstruktivisme dari Jean Piaget dan Lev Vygotsky, yang menekankan pentingnya peran pengalaman individu dalam membangun pengetahuan dan pemahaman. Teori ini relevan dalam konteks pembelajaran bagi siswa tunarungu yang membutuhkan pendekatan khusus. Untuk teori terkait objek formal, yaitu metode pembelajaran kreatif dan inovatif, peneliti mengacu pada pendapat Zainal Aqid dan Ali Murtadlo. Sedangkan untuk fokus penelitian atau objek material I, yaitu konsentrasi belajar PAI, peneliti merujuk pada pendapat Syamsuddin Makmun Abin, dan untuk objek material II, yaitu kedisiplinan belajar PAI, peneliti mengacu pada pendapat Aksara Daryanto. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Pendekatan Kualitatif dengan metode Studi Kasus (Studi Situs Tunggal). Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi tak berstruktur, wawancara terstruktur dan tak terstruktur, dan dokumentasi. Sedangkan analisis data menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa metode pembelajaran kreatif dan inovatif meliputi MMR, demonstrasi, ceramah, tanya jawab, latihan, resitasi, pengulangan, keteladanan, pembiasaan, serta reward dan punishment, yang didukung oleh media pembelajaran visual dan inovatif seperti video pembelajaran berbasis bahasa isyarat, powerpoint dan kertas bergambar, flashcards, puzzle, papan disiplin dan kartu kejujuran, serta didukung pula oleh metode komunikasi khusus tunarungu meliputi bahasa isyarat, bahasa lisan, membaca ujaran, dan komunikasi total. Penerapan metode ini cukup berhasil meningkatkan konsentrasi dan kedisiplinan belajar PAI siswa, meskipun masih terdapat kekurangan yang disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor penghambat. Arabic: محمد بوليم: أساليب التعلم الإبداعية والمبتكرة في تشكيل تركيز التعلم والانضباط في تعلم التربية الدينية الإسلامية لدى الطلاب الصم (بحث في مدرسة سيكولاه لوار بياسا نيجيري سيليونيي في محافظة باندونغ). الدافع وراء هذا البحث هو من خلال انخفاض تركيز التعلم وانضباط التعلم لدى الطلاب الصم في تعلم التربية الدينية الإسلامية في مدرسة سيكولاه لوار بياسا نيجيري سيليونيي. يمكن ملاحظة هذه الأعراض من خلال عدم انتباه الطلاب أثناء التعلم، والدردشة المتكررة عندما يشرح المعلم، والنعاس، والمزاح في منتصف التعلم. بالإضافة إلى ذلك، يتأخر الكثير من الطلاب عن المدرسة، وعدم الالتزام بأداء الواجبات، واستمرار اللعب خارج الفصل بعد انتهاء الفسحة، وقلة الوعي في العبادات وخاصة الصلاة. لذا، من المهم تحديد وتحليل تطبيق أساليب التعلم الإبداعية والمبتكرة لتشكيل تركيز التعلم والانضباط لدى الطلاب الصم في تعلمهم في الصفوف الدراسية. تتمثل أهداف هذا البحث في (١) تحليل أساسيات اختيار أساليب التعلم الإبداعية والمبتكرة، (٢) تحليل تطبيق هذه الأساليب في تشكيل تركيز تعلم الطلبة الصم في التعليم الأساسي، (٣) تحليل تطبيق هذه الأساليب في تشكيل انضباط تعلم الطلبة الصم، (٤) تحديد العوامل الداعمة والمثبطة في تطبيق هذه الأساليب في تشكيل تركيز تعلم الطلبة الصم وانضباطهم في التعليم الأساسي. يستخدم هذا البحث نظرية البنائية عند جان بياجيه وليف فيجوتسكي، والتي تؤكد على أهمية دور الخبرة الفردية في بناء المعرفة والفهم. هذه النظرية ذات صلة في سياق تعلم الطلاب الصم الذين يحتاجون إلى نهج خاص. بالنسبة للنظرية المتعلقة بالموضوع الشكلي، أي أساليب التعلم الإبداعية والابتكارية، يشير الباحث إلى آراء زينل عقيد وعلي مرتاضلو. أما بالنسبة للكائن المادي الأول وهو التركيز في التعلم التربية الدينية الإسلامية، فيشير الباحث إلى رأي شمس الدين مكمون أبين، وبالنسبة للكائن المادي الثاني وهو الانضباط في التعلم التربية الدينية الإسلامية، فيشير الباحث إلى رأي أكسارا داريانتو. طريقة البحث المستخدمة هي المنهج النوعي مع أسلوب دراسة الحالة (دراسة موقع واحد). تم جمع البيانات من خلال الملاحظات غير المنظمة، والمقابلات المنظمة وغير المنظمة، والتوثيق. وفي الوقت نفسه، استخدم تحليل البيانات نموذج مايلز وهوبرمان. أظهرت النتائج أن أساليب التعلّم الإبداعية والمبتكرة تشمل أساليب التعلّم الإبداعية والمبتكرة مثل: التعلم بالرسوم المتحركة والإيضاح، والإيضاح، والمحاضرة، والسؤال والجواب، والممارسة، والتلقين، والتكرار، والتكرار، والمثالية، والتعويد، والثواب والعقاب، والتي تدعمها وسائط التعلم المرئية والمبتكرة مثل مقاطع الفيديو التعليمية القائمة على لغة الإشارة، والباوربوينت والورق المصور، والبطاقات التعليمية، والألغاز، ولوحات الانضباط، وبطاقات الأمانة، كما تدعمها أيضًا أساليب التواصل الخاصة بالصم بما في ذلك لغة الإشارة، واللغة المنطوقة، وقراءة الكلام، والتواصل الكلي. يعد تطبيق هذه الطريقة ناجحًا جدًا في تحسين تركيز الطلاب وانضباطهم في تعلم اللغة العربية للصم على الرغم من وجود بعض أوجه القصور الناجمة عن عدة عوامل مثبطة. English: MUHAMMAD POLEM: Creative and Innovative Learning Methods in Shaping Learning Concentration and Islamic Religious Education Learning Discipline for Deaf Students (Research at Sekolah Luar Biasa Negeri Cileunyi, Bandung Regency). This research is motivated by the low concentration of learning and discipline of deaf students in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at SLB Negeri Cileunyi. This symptom can be seen from the lack of students' attention during learning, frequent chatting when the teacher explains, drowsiness, and joking in the middle of learning. In addition, many students are late for school, disobedient in doing assignments, still playing outside the classroom after recess is over, and lack of awareness in worship, especially prayer. Therefore, it is important to identify and analyze the application of creative and innovative learning methods to shape the learning concentration and discipline of deaf students' PAI learning. The objectives of this research are (1) to analyze the basics of choosing creative and innovative learning methods, (2) to analyze the application of these methods in shaping PAI learning concentration, (3) to analyze the application of these methods in shaping PAI learning discipline, and (4) to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in the application of these methods in shaping PAI learning concentration and discipline in deaf students. This study uses Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky's theory of constructivism, which emphasizes the important role of individual experience in constructing knowledge and understanding. This theory is relevant in the context of learning for deaf students who need a special approach. For the theory related to the formal object, namely creative and innovative learning methods, the researcher refers to the opinions of Zainal Aqid and Ali Murtadlo. As for material object I, namely concentration of PAI learning, the researcher refers to the opinion of Syamsuddin Makmun Abin, and for material object II, namely discipline of PAI learning, the researcher refers to the opinion of Aksara Daryanto. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a case study method (single-site study). Data collection was done through unstructured observation, structured and unstructured interviews, and documentation. While data analysis uses the Miles and Huberman model. The results of the study show that creative and innovative learning methods include MMR, demonstration, lecture, question and answer, practice, recitation, repetition, exemplary, habituation, and reward, and punishment, supported by visual and innovative learning media such as sign language-based learning videos, PowerPoint and picture paper, flashcards, puzzles, discipline boards, and honesty cards, and also supported by deaf-specific communication methods including sign language, spoken language, speech reading, and total communication. The application of this method is quite successful in improving students' concentration and discipline in learning PAI, although several inhibiting factors still cause shortcomings

    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

    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
