Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Description of Behavior of Pregnant Women in Conducting Antenatal Care during the Covid-19 Pandemic in Puskesmas Rawat Inap Sidomulyo, Pekanbaru City
Get PDFPandemi COVID-19 sangat berdampak terhadap layanan Kesehatan Ibu dan Anak (KIA) dengan terjadinya penurunan jumlah kunjungan ibu hamil untuk memeriksakan kehamilan. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui gambaran perilaku ibu hamil dalam melakukan antenatal care (ANC) saat pandemi COVID-19. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif kuantitatif. Sampel penelitian adalah 40 wanita hamil trimester III yang melakukan pemeriksaan ANC dari bulan November 2020 sampai Januari 2021 dengan teknik accidental sampling. Analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis univariat. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas ibu hamil berumur 20-35 tahun (usia produktif) sebanyak 34 responden (85%), pendidikan terakhir SMA/SMK/MAN sebanyak 21 responden (52,5%) dan mayoritas tidak bekerja sebanyak 26 responden (65%). Perilaku wanita hamil dalam melakukan ANC saat pandemi COVID-19 menunjukkan hasil yang hampir seimbang antara perilaku positif sebanyak 21 responden (52,5%) dan perilaku negatif sebanyak 19 responden (47,5%). Sebagian besar perilaku wanita hamil berdasarkan pedoman pelaksanaan ANC saat pandemi COVID-19 adalah negatif sebanyak 24 responden (60%). Sebagian besar perilaku ibu hamil berdasarkan upaya pencegahan COVID-19 dengan menerapkan protokol kesehatan adalah positif sebanyak 25 responden (62,5%). Perilaku wanita hamil dalam melakukan ANC saat pandemi COVID-19 hampir seimbang antara perilaku positif dan perilaku negatif sehingga penting bagi ibu hamil untuk semakin sadar dalam menentukan perilaku yang baik selama hamil sehingga mampu menjalani kehamilan dengan baik, bersalin dengan selamat dan melahirkan bayi yang sehat.The COVID-19 pandemic has a major impact on Maternal and Child Health (MCH) services, which causes a significant decrease in the number of visits by pregnant women. This research aims to determine how pregnant women behave in doing antenatal care during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research used a quantitative descriptive design. The sample of this research was 40 trimester III pregnant women who performed ANC examination with accidental sampling technique from November 2020 to January 2021. The analysis used was univariate. The results of this research showed that the majority of pregnant women aged 20-35 years (productive age) with a total of 34 respondents (85%), there were 21 respondents with High School as the latest education (52,5%) and also 26 total respondents (65%) who did not have a job. The behavior of pregnant women in doing ANC during the COVID-19 pandemic showed positive behavior results with 21 respondents (52,5%) almost the same as the result of negative behavior results that gained 19 total respondents (47,5%). Most of the pregnant womens' behavior based on the ANC implementation guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic were negative, with a total of 24 respondents (60%). On the other hand, most of the pregnant womens' behaviors based on the prevention of COVID-19 by implementing the health protocol were positive, with 25 respondents (62,5%). The behavior of pregnant women in doing ANC during COVID-19 is almost the same between negative behavior and positive behavior, therefore for pregnant women need to be more aware of choosing good behavior during pregnancy to get through the period of pregnancy in a better way, give birth safely, and give birth to a healthy baby
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
