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
Analysis of perceptions of managers and local communities in the application of principles in Ranca Upas tourism park
Background: Ecotourism that involves local communities emphasizes active participation from local residents. This concept is based on the understanding that local populations possess indigenous knowledge about the natural environment and cultural heritage, which can serve as a tourism attraction. Therefore, community involvement is a crucial aspect of ecotourism development. This study focuses on the ecotourism management of Wana Wisata Ranca Upas and how it integrates local communities. Methods: A qualitative paradigm was applied as the research framework, following a post-positivist philosophy to explore phenomena in a natural setting. Data collection was conducted through triangulation, with an inductive approach to analysis. The study prioritized a deep understanding of community involvement over generalization. Findings: The analysis showed that the management of Wana Wisata Ranca Upas is committed not only to commercial aspects but also to environmental sustainability, community education, and providing significant economic and social benefits to local communities. Community motivation for participating in ecotourism varied, with many viewing it as a source of substantial income. However, there is a gap in ecotourism-related knowledge between the management, which operates according to Perhutani’s vision and mission, and the local communities, who often do not fully understand ecotourism principles. Factors influencing these differences in perception include access to information, background, interests, decision-making processes, and trust. Conclusion: The study concludes that while Wana Wisata Ranca Upas emphasizes sustainability and ecotourism principles, there remains a knowledge gap between management and local communities. Bridging this gap is essential for the long-term success of ecotourism in the area. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study highlights the disconnect between management's vision and the local community's understanding of ecotourism, emphasizing the need for improved communication and education to foster more effective and sustainable community participation in ecotourism development

MODEL PENGATURAN PENGUNJUNG PADA KAWASAN WISATA ALAM PEGUNUNGAN DENGAN FUNGSI LINDUNG DAN INTENSITAS WISATA TINGGI DI KAWASAN WISATA KLUSTER GUNUNG PATUHA, KABUPATEN BANDUNG
ABSTRACT
Patuha Mountain Cluster is a part of South Bandung Region which has beautiful scenery of mountainous forest landscape. The uniqueness and its beauty become the main factors of its popularity as nature based tourism area. But the characteristic of mountainous region make this area stated by the government as preservation area (PP. No.72 th 2010), so the management should has specific program that appropriate for preservation function also for tourism purpose. This research is conducted to develop the visitor management concept of nature based area with preservation function and high visitor intensity. Visitor intensity is the frequent of use and visitor density analysis (Pfluger, Yvone (2004). Quantitative and qualitative methods were used to develop the visitor management model, and also by the spatial analysis to develop the map of preservation area. Visitor intensity was found by using carrying capacity analysis and survey method (questionnaire). The result show that according to spatial and regulation analysis, all of the objects study in Patuha Mountain Cluster are categorized as preservation area. Most of them have medium visitor intensity, and one of it (Kawah Putih forest recreation), which is the most popular one has high visitor intensity. Identification of landscape characteristic and regulation of nature based area are the first step to develop an appropriate model of visitor management. Visitor density and visitor used also become the important factors that influence the environment quality of nature based tourism area. The high visitor intensity could pressure the physical condition of the area so the program of visitor management should implemented structurally. The development of interpretation program and media should be implemented especially to educate visitors to be more care and friendly with the environment. Another visitor management program that could implemented regarding this findings are limiting the accessibility to the main and sensitive attraction, activities decentralization and develop the tourism education program. Keywords : Mountain based tourism, tourism intensity, visitor managemen
Integrasi Analisis Preferensi Visual dan Bahaya Lanskap dalam Perencanaan Wisata di Taman Hutan Raya Ir. H. Djuanda, Bandung
Ir. H. Djuanda Forest Park, is a natural tourism destination located in Bandung, West Java and in low land parts of Gunung Pulosari, passed by Cikapundung river stream. This research aimed to recommend the appropriate tourism planning to be implemented in the Ir. H. Djuanda Forest Park. Through landscape hazard analysis within slope gradient and soil element contained, we developed landscape sensitivity map. The result shows that 65,508% from the total area is a high sensitivity land. Beside that, only 4,335% from the total area is a low sensitivity lands and can be explored for active tourism attraction. The visual preference analysis was held to identify the potential attractiveness of many tourisms object in this area. The high potential object is dominanated with natural landscape objects and man-made object is the less potential. Almost all of the potential objects are located in high sensitivity land. Unfortunately, the uninterested object with unclear function is located in low sensitivity land which it is suitable for intensive recreation activities. The planner of this area should consider the role of limited activities and facilities development in low caring capacity land. For conservation purpose, planting endemic vegetation in sensitive landslide land should be carried out in order to maintain forest sustainability.Ir. H.
