Leisure necessities and symbolic meaning of traveling through habitus on social media
Full text linkSocial media allows people to share what they do in the real world through their posts on social media. However, what they present online are not based on reality. Posts on social media increasingly illustrate differences in social status because even though the posts are on the same topic and category, they show different tastes. Through Bourdieu’s thought that tastes are determined by social structure, this study aimed to explore how a person’s consumption, especially traveling, can change due to habitus in social media. Consumption in Bourdieu's explanation is no longer determined by economic factors, but by culture. Cultural practices in technology play a role in changing consumption patterns in society. As a communication process that builds simulations and social space, social media posts create distinctions in society. The narrative method used to understand individuals’ experiences are subjective and interpreted in their world, so they have an objective impact. Interviews were carried out with Indonesian travelers who provided recommendations for their followers who have the same interests in traveling. In addition, the netnography method was carried out to see the meaning of traveling in modern society. This study shows that traveling has become a symbol. This change in traveling consumption provides confirmation for social media as a process of transformation through habitus
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
PSEUDONYM AND PERSONA MANAGEMENT IN PSYCHOANALISYS APPROACH AMONG J-POP FANS IN SOCIAL MEDIA
Full text linkABSTRACT The development of communication technology makes a new form of persona management strategies. Facebook is one of social media, which can make the borders of public persona and private persona to be blurred and invisible. This research aims to explore the persona management in pseudonym practice through psychoanalysis approach by Japanese popular culture’s fans on Facebook by separating their personas in RL (Real Life) account and fannish account. This research is a qualitative research and using constructivism paradigm. Data collection was obtained by unstructured interviews submitted to two Facebook users. The data is then processed and analyzed interpretively. Study found that the main motive of fans using pseudonimity in social media is to avoid the stereotype threats from their real-life society. Virtual ethnography methods are also used which depart from virtual participatory observation methods for pseudonym accounts and participant RL accounts Study also found that there’s a new form of persona management strategies by using social media’s technology features such as blocking, unfriend-ing, and using privacy setting feature, and the other strategies. So, their persona is public yet private towards some audience. Keywords; fandom, persona, pseudonym, fans, popular culture. ABSTRAK Perkembangan teknologi komunikasi menciptakan bentuk baru dari strategi manajemen persona. Facebook adalah salah satu media sosial yang dapat membuat batasan sehingga persona publik dan privat menjadi kabur dan tidak terlihat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi manajemen persona dalam praktik pseudonim melalui pendekatan psikoanalisis yang dilakukan para fans budaya populer Jepang yang melakukan pemisahan persona mereka di akun RL (Real Life) dan akun fans. Penelitian kualitatif ini menggunakan paradigma konstruksivisme. Pengumpulan data diperoleh dengan wawancara tidak terstruktur yang diajukan kepada dua orang pengguna Facebook. Data kemudian diolah dan dianalisis secara interpretif. Metode virtual ethnography juga digunakan yang berangkat dari metode observasi partisipatif secara virtual untuk akun pseudonim dan akun RL partisipan. Temuan studi menunjukan terdapat motif utama dari fans yang menggunakan pseudonim dalam media sosial yaitu untuk menghindari ancaman stereotype dari kehidupan sosial yang nyata. Studi juga menemukan adanya bentuk baru dari strategi manajemen persona dengan menggunakan fitur teknologi sosial media seperti blocking, unfriend-ing, privacy setting dan lainnya. Dengan demikian persona mereka bersifat publik karena disebarluaskan melalui media sosial namun tetap bersifat pribadi dalam hubungannya dengan pengguna media sosial lainnya.

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
