    Modern humans place too much emphasis on the outer side that they are trapped in a materialist and hedonist lifestyle. As a result, modern humans experience drought in the spirituality side. Modern humans are prone to stress in the face of increasingly severe life pressures, even to the stage of depression. Depression that is not treated properly causes psychiatric disorders or suicidal behavior. The high number of suicidal behavior in recent years shows the low value of modern human spirituality. Spiritual studies have been carried out by scientists in the field of psychology. In psychology, spirituality and religion have different dimensions. One can have a high spiritual value without having to be religious. One of the human activities that has spiritual potential is art. This research was conducted to determine the effect of art activities in the spiritual development of humans. This study uses qualitative methods with triangulation techniques. The results of this study indicate that visual arts have spiritual potential, so they can be used as a means to develop the spiritual side of humans

    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

    Masyarakat modern terlalu mengutamakan kebutuhan materi sehingga larut dalam gaya hidup materialis dan hedonis. Akibatnya, manusia modern mengalami kekeringan dalam sisi spiritualitasnya. Manusia modern menjadi lebih rentan terhadap stress saat menghadapi tekanan persoalan kehidupan yang makin berat. Orang yang tidak mampu mengatasi stress dengan baik maka hidupnya akan selalu dalam kecemasan, bahkan bisa menjadi depresi. Depresi yang tidak mendapat penanganan secara baik menyebabkan gangguan jiwa dan memicu perilaku bunuh diri. Tingginya angka perilaku bunuh diri beberapa tahun terakhir menunjukkan rendahnya nilai spiritualitas manusia modern. Kajian tentang spiritual telah dilakukan oleh para ilmuan dalam bidang psikologi. Dalam psikologi, spiritual dan agama memiliki dimensi yang berbeda. Seseorang dapat memiliki nilai spiritual tinggi tanpa harus menjadi religius. Salah satu kegiatan manusia yang memiliki potensi spiritual adalah kesenian. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh kegiatan kesenian seni rupa dalam pengembangan spiritual manusia. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah kualitatif dengan teknik validasi data menggunakan teknik triangulasi. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa seni rupa mengandung potensi spiritual, sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai sarana manusia untuk meningkatkan dimensi spiritualnya

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    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
