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
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
Physical Properties and Glycemic Index Studies of Singaraja White Rice Grown by Conventional and Organic Methods in Denpasar Bali Indonesia
Both Singaraja white rice  grown by organic and conventional method showed similar quality and  posses glycemic index of 46.8±4.03 and 48.2±4.65 respectively. These values are lesser than the commercial Basmati rice of 50±5.8 which is in the low GI category. The scanning electron macroscopy photomicrograph of the transversal section of both  rices show the array of crystalline blocks from the central endosperm area toward the outer part. The blocks are surrounded by polyhedral crystallites of the size between 3-6 microns. The polyhedral crystalline seem to be more dominant in the conventional rice. X-ray difrractograms of the rice indicate about 24% crystallinity with amylose dihydrate exist as polymorph in the organic rice. Elemental analysis data by XRF indicate organic rice contains slightly higher Magnesium and Phosphorus. Other elements detected were K, Al, S, Cl,O, Si, Zn, Ru, Ni, Pd and Fe. However, no iron was detected in the conventional rice . On the other hand no calcium was detected in the organic  rice. Thermogravimetric study showed the solid rice is stable up to about 200°C with the loss of water molecules at about 90°C.Â
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

LAPORAN INDIVIDU PRAKTIK PENGALAMAN LAPANGAN (PPL)/MAGANG III SMP NEGERI 2 BERBAH
Praktik Pengalaman Lapangan (PPL) bertujuan memberikan kesempatan kepada
mahasiswa untuk belajar mengenal serta menghayati seluk beluk lembaga pendidikan dengan
segenap permasalahannya. Baik yang berkaitan dengan proses pembelajaran maupun kegiatan
administrasi pendidikan. Melalui PPL mahasiswa dapat menerapkan disiplin ilmu yang diperoleh
di universitas untuk diterapkan kedalam lingkungan pendidikan. PPL juga berfungsi sebagai
salah satu cara melatih mental mahasiswa didepan dan diluar kelas. Selain itu, PPL dapat
menambah pengalaman dan wawasan dalam proses KBM, agar nantinya mahasiswa mempunyai
bekal untuk terjun kedalam dunia pendidikan sebagai tenaga pendidik.
Praktik Pengalaman Lapangan Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta semester khusus 2016 yang
berlokasi di SMP Negeri 2 Berbah telah dilaksanakan oleh mahasiswa pada tanggal 15 Juli
sampai 15 September 2016. Kelompok PPL di lokasi ini terdiri dari 14 mahasiswa dari program
pendidikan Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam, pendidikan Bahasa Jawa, pendidikan Bahasa Inggris,
pendidikan Jasamani Kesehatan dan Rekreasi, pendidikan kewarganegaraan dan pendididkan
Ilmu Sosial.
Selama kegiatan PPL, praktikan melakukan praktik mengajar secara kelompok (team
teaching) dengan mengajar di kelas VII dan VIII. Praktikan melakukan praktik mengajar dari
hari senin hingga sabtu. Dari keseluruhan praktik mengajar praktikan melakukan praktik
mengajar sebanyak 8 kali. Selama PPL, praktikan juga menyusun program- program agar
pelaksanaan PPL berjalan dengan lancar.
Secara umum, program-program yang telah direncanakan dapat berjalan dengan baik dan
lancar. Praktikan telah berusaha untuk menekan semua hambatan yang terjadi selama
melaksanakan program kerja, sehingga program tersebut akhirnya berhasil dilaksanakan.
Munculnya hambatan selama pelaksanaan kegiatan merupakan hal yang wajar. Praktikan
berharap, semoga laporan ini dapat bermanfaat bagi semua pihak yang terkai
