    Survival Symbols of Disabilities in Global Era as Reflected in “The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell” by Robert Dugoni

    No full text
    This research discusses the survival symbols of disabilities in the global era as reflected in the novel The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell by Robert Dugoni. The main character, Samuel Hill, is portrayed as a disabled individual who has experienced various forms of social discrimination since childhood. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and Roland Barthes’s semiotic theory, this study reveals how the symbols in the novel represent the struggles of individuals with disabilities in facing stigma and social challenges. The analysis shows that disability is not only presented as a physical limitation but also as an identity that shapes resilience, courage, and determination to survive. Samuel’s life journey reflects the transformation from marginalization to self-acceptance and achievement, which gives new meaning to the condition of disability in the context of a global society. Moreover, this research highlights that literature is a powerful medium to articulate the voices of marginalized groups, including people with disabilities, whose narratives are often silenced in mainstream discourse. By interpreting symbols such as vision, faith, and perseverance, this study demonstrate that disability can be seen as a source of empowerment rather than limitation. The findings enrich readers’ understanding of the realities faced by individuals with disabilities while encouraging inclusive values that uphold dignity and diversity. Ultimately, the novel delivers a universal message that survival is deeply connected with empathy, acceptance, and recognition of every individual’s worth in a global society

    ABSTRAK   Astutik, Dian Rahayu Puji . 2010. Studi Keanekaragaman Polychaeta di Muara Sungai Ngapuri Kecamatan Ujung Pangkah Kabupaten Gresik. Skripsi, Jurusan Biologi FMIPA Universitas Negeri Malang.Pembimbing: (I) Drs. Agus Dharmawan M.Si. (II) Sofia Ery Rahayu S.Pd, M.Si   Kata Kunci: Keanekaragaman, Polychaeta, Muara Sungai Ngapuri Gresik   Muara sungai Ngapuri mengalami banjir setiap tahunnya dengan tingkat abrasi pertahun dapat mencapai 2-3 Ha.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui: 1) anggota Polychaeta yang ditemukan di muara sungai Ngapuri, 2)  nilai indeks keanekaragaman, kemerataan dan kekayaan Polychaeta, dan 3) faktor abiotik meliputi pH, salinitas dan suhu yang mempengaruhi indeks keanekaragaman, kemerataan, dan kekayaan Polychaeta di muara sungai Ngapuri. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif eksploratif dilakukan pada tanggal 19 September – 6 Oktober 2010. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan cara menentukan garis transek yang terbagi menjadi dua kepentingan yaitu transek berdasarkan jarak dari mangrove ke arah laut sebanyak 10 transek dengan jarak 50 m dan 5 plot dengan jarak 20m. Transek berdasarkan jarak dari muara sungai ke arah menjauhi muara sungai sebanyak 5 transek dengan jarak 20m dan 10 plot dengan jarak 50 m. Setiap plot berukuran 1x1 m2 dengan kedalaman 30cm. Lumpur disetiap plot disaring dengan mesh 0,5 mikron dan dilanjutkan identifikasi Polychaeta berdasarkan morfologinya dengan bantuan mikroskop stereo. Data jumlah individu serta faktor abiotik meliputi pH, salinitas dan suhu pada saat pengambilan data dianalisis dengan menggunakan anava dan regresi tunggal dengan SPSS. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat dua Familia dari kelas Polychaeta yang ditemukan yaitu Nereidae, dan Lumbrineridae. Indeks keanekaragaman besdasarkan garis transek muara sungai berkisar antara 0 – 0,88, sedangkan indeks kemerataan berkisar 0 – 0,99 dan indeks kekayaan berkisar 0 – 0.76. Indeks keanekaragaman berdasarkan garis transek mangrove berkisar antara0.44– 0.86, sedangkan indeks kemerataan berkisar 0,63 – 0,78, dan indeks kekayaan berkisar 0.48 –1,04. Faktor abiotik yang paling berpengaruh pada keanekaragaman, kemerataan, dan kekayaan Polychaeta adalah salinitas.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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
