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
Association Between the Managerial Capacity of Nutrition Personnel and the Achievement of Specific Nutrition Interventions for Stunting Prevention
Full text linkBackground: Stunting remains a serious public health issue in Indonesia, with a prevalence rate of 24.4% according to SSGI 2021. Specific nutrition interventions require strong managerial capacity among nutrition personnel. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the managerial capacity of nutrition personnel and the achievement of specific nutrition interventions at community health centers (puskesmas) in Deli Serdang Regency. Research Methods: This was a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. A total of 41 nutrition personnel were selected using proportional random sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and reports on specific nutrition interventions, and analyzed using chi-square tests with a significance level of p<0.05. Results: Most nutrition personnel (63.4%) demonstrated good managerial capacity, and 68.3% achieved high outcomes in specific nutrition interventions. Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between managerial capacity and intervention achievement (p=0.001), where those with better managerial skills achieved higher intervention targets.Conclusion: Managerial capacity significantly influences the achievement of specific nutrition interventions for stunting prevention. Strengthening managerial skills through continuous training is essential to enhance the effectiveness of nutrition programs at the primary healthcare level
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
Faktor – Faktor yang Mempengaruhi Tingkat Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat (PHBS)Tatanan Rumah Tangga Dilokasi Proyek Kesehatan Keluarga dan Gizi (KKG) Kebupaten Tapanuli Selatan 2004
No full textThe project of Family Health and Nutrition (KKG) was conducted in the district Tapanuli Selatan from 1997 to 2003. One of its activities was the Program of Clean and Healthy Life Behaviour (PHBS) of household order. It was found that 22,4% of PHBS of household order reached Classification IV, 65.2% reached Classification III, and 12.4 % reached Classification II. Yet, the factors affecting the achievement of the level of PHBS of household order are not known, therefore, it is essential to conduct a research to learn the factor affecting the achievement of the level of PHBS of household order in the location of KKG project in the district of Tapanuli Selatan in 2004. This cross-sectional study was designed to obtain the data from 138 respondents selected based on the quota sampling technique in three subdistricts in the location of KKG project in the district ofTapanuli Selatan .The data obtained through the questionnaires were tested by means of multiple logistic regression test multivariate analysis. It was found that the variables of age, knowledge, action, and Focus Group Discussion (DKT) significantly affect the level of PHBS Classification IV and not Classification IV and there is a significant interaction between the variables of action and age after being cntrolled by the variable of Focus Group Discussion (DKT) and knowledge. The respondents, who are, :s 40 years old with good education, good Action, and members of Focus Group Discussion and have the level improvement probability ofPHBS household order of 84.8% become Classification IV. To improve family classification to Classification IV, the Health Service needs to improve its role and community activeness especially the young age group (:S 40 years old) to join the Focus Group Discussion intensively and continuously that the community with good education and are aware of PHBS can increase in number, and lead to good action that they can be good motivation to increase the percentage of the families with PHBS, Classification IV, and improve the status ofPHBS from the level ofhealthy area I to that ofhealthy 2 and so forth,Pada tahun 1997-2003 telah dilaksanakan proyek Kesehatan Keluarga dan Gizi (KKG) di Kabupaten Tapanuli Selatan. Salah satu kegiatannya adalah program Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat (PHBS) tatanan rumah tangga. Diperoleh tingkat PHBS tatanan rumah tangga 22,4% mencapai klasifikasi IV, 65,2% mencapai klasifikasi III dan 12,4% mencapai klasifikasi II. Belum diketahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi capaian tingkat PHBS tatanan rumah tangga tersebut, perlu dilakukan penelitian untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi capaian tingkat PHBS tatanan rumah tangga di lokasi proyek KKG Kabupaten Tapanuli Selatan tahun 2004. Dilakukan penelitian dengan desain studi cross sectional terhadap 138 responden yang diambil berdasarkan quota sampling di 3 Kecamatan di lokasi Proyek KKG Kabupaten Tapanuli Selatan. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan kuisioner dan diuji dengan analisis multivariat uji regresi logistik ganda, Hasil temuan penelitian menunjukkan ada pengaruh variabel umur, pengetahuan, tindakan, dan Diskusi Kelompok Terarah(DKT) terhadap tingkat PHBS klasiflkasi IV dan bukan klasifikasi IV serta ada interaksi signifikan antara variabel tindakan dengan umur setelah dikontrol oleh variabel DKT dan pengetahuan. Responden yang umurnya < 40 tahun, berpengetahuan baik, tindakan baik, dan ikut DKT memiliki probabilitas peningkatan tingkat PHBS tatanan rumah tangga sebesar 55,9% menjadi klasifikasi IV. Guna meningkatkan klasifikasi keluarga menjadi klasifikasi IV Dinas Kesehatan perlu meningkatkan peran serta dan keaktifan masyarakat khususnya kelompok urnur muda C5 40 tahun untuk mengikuti DKT secara intensif dan berkesinambungan,sehingga masyarakat yang berpengetahuan baik dan sadar tentang PHBS meningkat, dan mengarah pada tindakan baik sehingga ini akan menjadi daya bangkit yang baik untuk meningkatkan persentase keluarga yang memiliki PHBS klasifikasi IV, dan meningkatkan status PHBS tingkat wilayah dari tingkat wilayah sehat 1 menjadi wilayah sehat 2 dan selanjutnya.232 HalamanTesis Magiste
The Relationship Between Cross-Program and Cross-Sectoral Support and the Achievement of Nutrition Programs in Stunting Reduction
Full text linkBackground: Stunting remains a major public health challenge in Indonesia. One of the factors influencing the success of nutrition programs for stunting prevention is cross-program and cross-sectoral support, which significantly affects intervention effectiveness at the primary healthcare level. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between cross-program and cross-sectoral support and the achievement of nutrition programs for stunting prevention at Batang Kuis Health Center, Deli Serdang Regency. Research Methods: A quantitative approach with a descriptive analytic design was employed. A total of 50 respondents, including health workers, health cadres, and representatives from education and social sectors, were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires and in-depth interviews and analyzed with Pearson correlation and chi-square tests. Results: The study revealed a significant relationship between cross-program and cross-sectoral support and nutrition program achievements (p=0.003; r=0.65). Sector coordination, budget allocation, and monitoring were found to be suboptimal, contributing to an increase in stunting prevalence from 12.5% to 14.3% in 2022. Conclusion: Cross-sectoral and cross-program support plays a crucial role in the success of nutrition programs to combat stunting. Strengthening sectoral coordination, increasing nutrition program budgets, and empowering communities are recommended to accelerate stunting reduction efforts
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
