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
Sufi order and resistance movement : the Sans̄ưiyya of Libya, 1911-1932
No full textThis thesis is a study of the Sanusiyya order, in which particular emphasis is placed on its role as a resistance movement. Based on a survey of the social, economic, religious and political activities of this sufi brotherhood and its involvement in the tribal system of the North Africa during the first three decades of this century, an attempt will be made to identify on the one hand the factors that contributed to the strength of its resistance to Italian invasion, and on the other, the elements that led to its failure. It is argued that its initial success in the resistance benefited from the network of the zawiyas where ikhwan from different tribes were integrated socially and economically in accordance with strong Islamic values. However, lack of military training and weapons, dependency on a prominent figure, competing ambitions within the Sanusi family and geographical distance ultimately weakened the resistance
Pengaruh Intensitas Penggunaan Smartphone dan Kesepian terhadap Nomophobia pada Peserta Didik Kelas XI di SMA Negri 5 Yogyakarta
No full textKemajuan teknologi yang pesat turut mempengaruhi perilaku remaja, khususnya dalam penggunaan smartphone yang berlebihan. Kemajuan teknologi ini berbanding lurus dengan kesepian yang dirasakan remaja. Oleh karena itu, penggunaan smartphone yang berlebihan dan rasa kesepian dipandang berdampak pada munculnya gejala psikologis seperti nomophobia, yakni ketakutan berlebihan ketika jauh dari ponsel. Fenomena ini juga ditemui pada peserta didik kelas XI SMA Negeri 5 Yogyakarta. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui intensitas penggunaan smartphone terhadap nomophobia pada peserta didik, pengaruh kesepian terhadap nomophobia pada peserta didik, dan seberapa besar pengaruh intensitas penggunaan smartphone dan kesepian terhadap nomophobia.
Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian korelasional. Data dikumpulkan melalui penyebaran skala psikologis kepada peserta didik, yang terdiri dari skala intensitas penggunaan smartphone, skala kesepian, dan skala nomophobia. Jumlah populasi pada penelitian ini sebanyak 261 peserta didik, 36 peserta didik dijadikan uji validitas dengan menggunakan Teknik Simple Random Sampling, dan 225 peserta didik yang digunakan sebagai sampel pada penelitian ini. Instrumen yang digunakan telah diuji validitas dan reliabilitasnya. Data kemudian dianalisis menggunakan regresi linier berganda untuk melihat hubungan antar variabel yang diteliti.
Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa intensitas penggunaan smartphone dan kesepian memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap nomophobia secara bersamaan. Selain itu, masing-masing variabel juga memberikan kontribusi secara mandiri. Berdasarkan temuan ini, dapat disimpulkan bahwa semakin sering peserta didik menggunakan ponsel pintar dan semakin tinggi tingkat kesepian yang dirasakan, maka kecenderungan mengalami nomophobia pun meningkat. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan agar pihak sekolah, khususnya guru bimbingan dan konseling, lebih aktif dalam memberikan edukasi serta pendampingan guna mencegah dan mengatasi masalah terkait nomophobia di kalangan remaja melalui layanan konseling individu dengan Teknik kontrak perilaku
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
Unconvential History: Gay, Lesbian, Biseks, Transseksual / Transjender, dan Questioning (GLBTQ) dalam Sejarah Kontemporer Islam.
