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
OPEN RECRUITMENT AT WEST JAVA PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT ( STUDY AT EDUCATION DEPARTMENT)
Indonesia has been through various systems of recruitment of civil servants (PNS). But taken from each system, always appear a variety of issues related to corruption, collusion and nepotism (KKN). Merit system is one of the efforts taken by the Indonesian government aimed to produce employees who are competent in their field and able to bring significant changes to the agency. But apparently even this merit system still can not answer all these recruitment problems, this is caused by several things, namely; 1) Employees are not focused on achieving results because of weak implementation of the pattern of reward and punishment; 2) staff career stalled in the same position; 3) The existence of KKN which reduces the effectiveness of public organizations.(Thoha,1990).
Open recruitment is the new system of recruitment in which the positions of echelon II announced openly to the public with the aim of minimizing the occurrence of corruption and able to produce in accordance with the mission the right man on the right place.
This research is using qualitative method where the nature of the research is grounded research and took the theory from Mondy and Noe (2008) on the open bidding in which these terms represent terminology open recruitment, which by providing opportunities to candidates from an external organization, the purpose of the organization in order to obtaining competent employees can be implemented. The unit of analysis is the Education Department of West Java Province-Government.
The results showed that the open recruitment system is well done and made some changes in a positive direction include elected officials, are fully obtained by the selection committee that there is no influence of any party. Similarly, the competence of elected officials has been tested through several test phases that extremely have difficulties. Regardless of the outcome of this open recruitment is considered successful, there are some disadvantages were appeared such as time tends to be longer and need the high cost too. But overall that the open recruitment system is a pretty good impact for employee recruitment system in Indonesia.

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
