    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Banyaknya kasus suap diantara pegawai lapas merupakan persoalan serius yang berindikasi adanya gejala organizational citizenship behavior  (OCB) yang rendah dilingkungan lembaga pemasyarakatan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui gambaran OCB pada pegawai lapas. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kuantitatif non ekperimental. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh pegawai lapas klas 1 Lowokwaru Malang. Sampel yang diambil berjumlah 55 orang dengan teknik sampel insidental.Metode pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah skala, yaitu skala OCB adapun metode analisis data yang digunakan adalah dengan menggunakan Z-score.Berdasarkan hasil analisis data yang dilakukan dengan Z-score menunjukan bahwa ada 33 orang (60%) memiliki OCB sedang, 8 orang (15%) memiliki OCB rendah, 6 orang (11%) pegawai memiliki OCB sangat tinggi, 5 orang (9%) memiliki OCB tinggi, sedangkan sisanya 3 orang (5%) pegawai yang memiliki OCB sangat rendah.   Kata kunci : Organizational citizenship behavior  (OCB)   Many employee of the prison do the bribery cases are a serous problem that indicated the presence of symptoms of oraganizational citizenship behavior (OCB) is low penitentiary environment. The purpose of this study is to know the description of  OCB. This study is the quantitative non-experimental descriptive studies. The population in this study was all employees of the prison of class 1 Lowokwaru Malang. Samples were taken amounted to 55 people with incidental sampling techniques Data collection methods used the scale, the scale of OCB as for data analysis method that used Z-score. Based on the results of data analysis was done with Z-score indicates that there are 33 people (60%) had middle OCB, 8 people (15%) had low OCB, 6 people (11%) employees have a very high OCB, 5n peole (9%) have high OCB, while the remaining 3 people (5%) employees have a very low OCB.   Keywords: Organizational citizenship behavior  (OCB

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    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

    No full text
    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
