    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

    Dalam meningkatkan mutu pendidikan sangat berkaitan erat dengan masalah sumber daya manusia (SDM), oleh karena itu proses rekrutmen, seleksi dan pengembangan SDM merupakan salahsatu hal yang sangat penting dalam tercapainya tujuan sebuah lembaga pendidikan. Setelah proses rekrutmen dan seleksi yang berkualitas tentu perlu ditindaklanjuti dengan pengembangan individu dari SDM itu sendiri, karena sudah tentu ilmu dan pengetahuan yang dimilik tenaga pendidik harus selalu diperbaharui dan dikembangkan demi tercapainya tujuan pendidikan yang berkualitas. Pada Yayasan Baitul Jannah, peneliti melihat hal yang manarik terkait proses seleksi tenaga pendidik yang dilakukan dengan walk interview. Lebih jauh peneliti melihat peserta didik dapat meraih berbagai prestasi sebagai dampak dari sistem rekrutmen dan seleksi. Kemudian terkait pengembangan Yayasan Baitul Jannah juga pernah mendapat penghargaan sebagai sekolah terbaik versi Human Resources Development Program (IHRDP). Salah satu aspek penilaian dari penghargaan ini adalah memiliki visi dalam pengembangan SDM. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui, memahami dan mendeskripsikan secara rinci dan mendalam tentang rekrutmen, seleksi dan pengembangan tenaga pendidik di Yayasan Pendidikan Baitul Jannah. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif; Pengumpulan data melalui wawancara sebagai metode pokok dan dokumentasi sebagai metode penunjang dalam penelitian, analisis data yang dilakukan adalah dengan mereduksi data hasil wawancara dan dokumentasi, kemudian data yang diperoleh di display, selanjutnya dilakukan penarikan kesimpulan. Uji keabsahan data yang digunakan adalah triangulasi sumber. Sumber data pada penelitian ini adalah Ketua Yayasan, Ketua Bidang Personalia, Kepala Sekolah, Guru, Sekretaris dan Staff Yayasan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa; 1) Rekrutmen yang dilakukan di Yayasan Baitul Jannah rekrutmen dapat dikatakan baik, karena telah melalui perencanaan yang matang (meliputi analisis kebutuhan dan persiapan rekrutmen). Dalam tahap persiapan rekrutmen terdiri dari kegiatan; Penetapan waktu dan biaya, penetapan prosedur pendaftaran tenaga pendidik, penetapan kualifikasi pelamar, dan menetapkan sumber atau saluran dalam rekrutmen. Selain itu tahap pelaksanaan dilakukan dengan optimal (meliputi kegiatan penyebaran pengumuman dan penerimaan lamaran). 2) Seleksi yang dilakukan di Yayasan Baitul Jannah dapat dikatakan baik, karena dilakukan dengan cara yang sistematis terdiri dari 2 (dua) tahapan yaitu persiapan dan pelaksanaan. Tahapan persiapan (meliputi kegiatan penetapan tim seleksi, menyiapkan instrumen penilaian, persiapan tempat dan waktu seleksi. Dan pada tahap pelaksanaan (meliputi kegiatan seleksi administrasi, wawancara awal, microteaching, wawacara akhir dan keputusan seleksi). 3) Pengembangan SDM dilakukan dengan 6 (enam) program, dan dapat disimpulkan bahwa program berjalan dengan cukup baik. Namun ada beberapa hal yang harus diperbaiki, seperti perencanaan atau design dalam program pengembangan SDM yang dilakukan belum maksimal, karena masih ada program yang bersifat insidental dan belum dilakukannya tahap evaluasi program

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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

    PENGARUH PROMOSI KREDIT PRODUKTIF DALAM MENINGKATKAN JUMLAH NASABAH DI PT BANK LAMPUNG

    Get PDF
    Promotion is one of the important variables for companies in increasing sales, marketing and attracting public interest. PT Bank Lampung as a banking company also carries out promotional activities in marketing its products, namely productive credit. However, in reality, the promotion of productive credit has not been optimal. This can be seen from the unstable growth in the number of customers in productive credit financing, even stagnation and a decrease in the number of new customers. The purpose of this study was to determine whether promotion had an effect on increasing the number of productive credit customers at PT Bank Lampung (Main Branch Office). This research used associative quantitative research methods, with data collection techniques using a questionnaire as the primary method, and documentation as research support. The data analysis technique used a simple linear regression test. The results showed; There was a positive and significant influence of the promotional variable (X) on the customer variable (Y), the t-count was 5.265, and the t-table was 2.028, which meant the t-count > t-table, or t-count 5.265 > 2.028. Based on the t-test value, it can be concluded that the proposed hypothesis regarding the effect of promotion on the increase in the number of customers at PT Bank Lampung is acceptable

    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
