    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    In science learning activities,learning objectives can be achieved if students are active in learning activities.The form of student activity in learning can be seen from the skills of asking questions and finding (lookingfor) answers that originate from their curiosity.Therefore, teaching materials are needed that can make students active, as a tool in the learning process and can be used as a learning resource. One of them is the Student Worksheet (LKPD). However, the LKPD circulating in school semphasizes more on questions and filling inquestions without explaining how the process of obtaining answers to these questions. In addition, the LKPD used looks monotonous, unattractive, and difficult to understand so that students are less motivated to study and understand the contents of the LKPD. Therefore, it is necessary to develop LKPD which aims to find out the stages in making guided inquiry based LKPD to determine the feasibility of LKPD to be used as teaching materials, and to determine student responses to guided inquiry-based LKPD on elements,compounds and mixtures in class VIISMP. The form of researchuse disresearch and development (R&D) which adopts the 4D development model (Define,design,develop,dessiminate) by Thiagarajan. The subject to this study was a guided inquiry based LKPD on elements, compounds,  and mixtures which were testedon 24  students  of class VII at junior high school 12 Pontianak with  high, medium, and low abilities. The data collection instruments used were the feasibility assessment and student response  questionnaires.Theresult so data `processing show that the developed LKPD is suitable for use in learning in terms of  content feasibility with a percentage of 82%, 90% presentation, 77% language86%  graphics. The result so student response trials to the product obtained student responses with a score of 82,06% with very high interpretations

    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

    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

    Pesantren Tebuireng is one of the large and old Pesantren in Jombang Regency, East Java Province, which has succeeded in making big and fast changes in various vital and strategic aspects, so that the great name of Tebuireng keeps existing and contributing positively to national development. This change does not happen by itself but there are a lot factors encouraging it. Therefore, this study aims to examine those factors which are driving the change at Pesantren Tebuireng. The form of this research is qualitative with a case study approach that examines the phenomenon of change by exploring the data through observation, interviews, and documentary studies. The result of this study is that the factors, driving the change at Pesantren Tebuireng, are grouped into two, namely the first is external factors which include competition in the quality of education, dynamic community demands, and alumni encouragement; The second is internal factors which include organizational structure that is not  comprehensive, organizational culture, and low quality of human resources yet

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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
