    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

    Education is a conscious and planned effort to create a learning atmosphere and learning process so that students actively develop their potential to have religious spiritual strength, self-control, personality, intelligence, noble character, and skills needed by themselves, society, nation and state. Characteristics of objects of geographic study there are concrete and some are in the form of "abstract", because geography studies the distribution, interaction, interrelation, interdependence, and various processes that work in space on a large scale. The context of the 2013 Curriculum implementation, teachers, including Geography teachers, as the spearhead in the development and implementation of geography learning at the school level, should understand the position of Geography itself in the K-13 Structure. Furthermore, teachers have the responsibility and obligation to make basic efforts in various forms of learning innovation so that the implementation of the learning process can achieve the specified competencies, while at the same time taking part in bringing the children of this nation to become a dignified nation in the eyes of the nation and internationally

    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

    The Application of the Canva Application-Based Ttw Strategy to Increase Learning Motivation and Student Learning Outcomes in the Subject of Geography

    Changes and improvements in the field of education include various components involved in it, both implementing education in the field (teachers' competence and quality of teaching staff), quality of education, curriculum devices, educational facilities and infrastructure, and quality of education management, including changes in learning methods and strategies used. more innovative. Efforts to change and improve are aimed at bringing the quality of education in Indonesia to be better. This study aims to determine the application of the Canva application-based Think-Talk-Write (TTW) strategy to increase student motivation and student learning outcomes in Geography. The method used is a systematic literature review (SLR). The data sources analyzed by the literature can be in the form of books, scientific articles, research journals, research reports, seminar proceedings, and so on. The results of the analysis of several reviewed articles found that the application of an effective TTW strategy based on the Canva application was used by teachers because the TTW strategy invited students to explore students minds by discussing strategies for problem-solving questions that would indirectly improve students' learning motivation, and provide a positive view of the subject of geography

    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

    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
