Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
FORMULASI KONSEP PERLINDUNGAN KONSUMEN DALAM PERJANJIAN PEMBIAYAAN KONSUMEN DENGAN OBJEK KENDARAAN BERMOTOR YANG BERKEADILAN DI INDONESIA
Full text linkKeberadaan lembaga keuangan yang menawarkan berbagai bentuk fasilitas pembiayaan merupakan pendukung kegiatan perekonomian melalui pengerahan sumber pembiayaan. Sejalan dengan itu, sejak tahun 1988 pemerintah telah mengeluarkan kebijakan untuk lebih memperkuat sistem lembaga keuangan nasional melalui pengembangan dan perluasan berbagai jenis lembaga keuangan, berupa Kepres No. 61 tahun 1988 dan diperbarui dengan Perpres 9/2009 yang mengatur tentang lembaga pembiayaan. Salah satu lembaga pembiayaan yang dimaksud adalah lembaga pembiayaan konsumen yang digunakan dalam memenuhi kebutuhan untuk mendapatkan barang dengan melakukan hubungan hukum berupa Perjanjian Pembiayaan Konsumen.
Permasalahan dalam penelitian ini di fokuskan pada: Bagaimana perkembangan konsep perjanjian pembiayaan konsumen yang ada dalam masyarakat saat ini?, mengapa perlindungan konsumen yang terdapat di dalam perjanjian pembiayaan konsumen saat ini belum memberikan rasa keadilan?, dan bagaimana konsep ideal perlindungan hukum terhadap konsumen dalam perjanjian pembiayaan konsumen yang berkeadilan?
Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian hukum normatif/ doctrinal dengan menggunakan pendekatan yuridis normatif/perundang-undangan, konseptual, sejarah hukum, filosofis, dan perbandingan hukum.
Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa Perkembangan perjanjian pembiayaan konsumen di Indonesia bermula dari berkembangnya perjanjian kredit sewa beli. Kemudian dikeluarkannya Keputusan Presiden Nomor 61 Tahun 1988 jo Peraturan Presiden Nomor. 9 Tahun 2009 yang mengatur tentang lembaga pembiayaan dari lembaga ini berkembang perjanjian pembiayaan konsumen berdasarkan asas kebebasan berkontrak. Perlindungan Konsumen dalam perjanjian pembiayaan konsumen dalam praktiknya belum memberikan keadilan menurut hukum khususnya konsumen. Hal itu disebabkan oleh klausula yang ada dalam perjanjian seperti klausul jatuh tempo, denda, percepatan pembayaran, kewajiban membayar sekaligus, asuransi, pemberian kuasa yang tidak dapat dicabut kembali dan pengakhiran perjanjian dengan pelepasan Pasal 1266 dan Pasal 1267 KUHPerdata. Ketidakadilan tersebut lebih dimungkinkan lagi dengan adanya posisi perusahaan pembiayaan yang lebih kuat, dibandingkan dengan posisi konsumen yang memerlukan barang. Konsep ideal terhadap perkembangan perlindungan konsumen dalam pejanjian pembiayaan konsumen yang berkeadilan hendaknya mengacu pada asas-asas hukum dalam perjanjian. Hal ini untuk menjamin perlindungan konsumen bahwa konsumen memahami kewajiban-kewajibannya, sehingga di kemudian hari tidak timbul sengketa.
Studi ini merekomendasikan bahwa perjanjian pembiayaan konsumen ini adalah perjanjian baku yang memuat klausul-klausul yang belum proporsional antara hak dan kewajiban para pihak, maka pemerintah melalui lembaga otoritas jasa keuangan perlu melakukan pengawasan terhadap klausul perjanjian
PEMBUKTIAN DALAM MENENTUKAN KERUGIAN KONSUMEN DALAM TRANSAKSI ELEKTRONIK
Full text linkThe development of e-commerce in Indonesia took place long before the Electronic Law waspassed, this e-commerce transaction itself would be predicted to continue to increase whichcould eventually lead to disputes between business actors and consumers. The problem in thisstudy is how to determine the proof of consumer losses in electronic transactions. Theapproach method used is a normative juridical approach method, secondary data sourcedfrom the study of literature and data analysis using qualitative analysis. The results of thestudy prove that to prove the existence of losses for consumers, of course, evidence is neededwhich can be used as evidence guidelines in standard agreements electronically.Conventionally proof is done in the form of print-outs or proof of writing with legalization.This can be done by adopting various provisions that contain the legal strength of electronicevidence as stipulated in the UNCITRAL Model Law On Electronic Commerce. Suggestionsneed to be immediately updated about the direction of the Indonesian Treaty Law inaccordance with Indonesia's national interests, so as to be able to participate in anincreasingly global world in the cyber era
