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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
PENERAPAN KREATIVITAS SENI MOZAIK MENGGUNAKAN ORIGAMI PADA SISWA KELAS 1 DI SDN SINDANGMULYA 05
Permasalahan yang dihadapi dalam perkembangan kemampuan motorik halus pada anak-anak saat ini, latihan tidak selalu dapat membantu memperbaiki kemampuan motoriknya. Sebab ada anak yang memiliki masalah pada susunan syarafnya sehingga menghambatnya keterampilan motorik tertentu. Program ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan motorik, daya pikir, daya serap, emosi, cita rasa keindahan, dan kreativitas pada siswa kelas 1 SD. Aktivitas yangdilakukan melibatkan pembuatan seni mozaik menggunakan kertas origami selama dua hari di SDN Sindangmulya 05. Program ini mencakup siswa dari kelas 1. Pelaksanaan program menunjukkan hasil yang positif, dengan antusiasme yang tinggi dari siswa-siswi dalam kegiatan seni mozaik berbasis origami. Keberhasilan program ini didukung oleh peran aktif guru-guru kelas dalam membimbing dan memfasilitasi siswa selama kegiatan berlangsung
PERILAKU GREEN BEHAVIOUR DENGAN PEMBELAJARAN EKOLITERASI PENDIDIKAN KARAKTER ANAK USIA DINI
The purpose of this study is that early childhood already has Green Behavior characters by learning ecoliteracy through assignment methods, audiovisuals, habituation, and direct practice. Giving daily examples at school and home in the community. The research method used is a qualitative survey analysis method. Researchers distributed survey questionnaires to respondents to obtain data relevant to the research. Survey analysis collects data based on several research instruments distributed to certain parties who are the sources of research. The source of this research is the main source consisting of teachers, while the second source is the reference or relevant literature studies. Data obtained from the distribution of questionnaires are collected and then displayed in data displays to be then processed based on the right theory to obtain the right conclusions., a research procedure that produces descriptive data in the form of written or oral data from people and behaviors that can be observed as the object of research, deepening by observing, reviewing documents and interviews. The research results are 1) Children are taught to love animals that are beneficial and not harmful to humans. 2) Children are taught to throw garbage in its place 3) Children are taught to sort waste according to organic and non-organic types 4) Children are taught about water, consisting of ways to save and the benefits of saving water; Keeping the environment clean, the benefits of protecting the environment and natural resources. 5) Teaching about electricity, consisting of how to save and the benefits of saving electricity; Results Develop As Expected. 6) About plants, which consists of planting and watering, not picking plants carelessly, and the benefits of plants for life. 7) Keeping the environment clean, the benefits of protecting the environment and natural resources. The value of the results of character education is that children develop according to expectations
