    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji Epistemologi Ilmu Ma’ani dalam Perspektif Filsafa Ilmu dengan pendekatan deskriptif dan analisis isi. Studi ini menggunakan metode kualitatif berbasis penelitian kepustakaan (library research), dengan sumber data dari kitab tafsir, buku Ilmu Ma’ani, serta referensi sekunder seperti jurnal ilmiah dan literatur filsafat. Data dikumpulkan secara purposive dengan teknik snowball dan dianalisis secara induktif untuk memastikan validitas hasil melalui triangulasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa Ilmu Ma’ani memenuhi kriteria epistemologi melalui tiga dimensi: empirisme (berbasis pengalaman inderawi), rasionalisme (berbasis akal), dan intuisisme (berbasis intuisi). Secara empiris, ilmu Ma’ani mendasarkan  analisisnya pada observasi bahasa; secara rasional, ia mengungkap struktur logis bahasa Arab; dan secara intutif, ia mengeksplorasi dimensi estetika dan spiritual bahasa. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada penguatan relevansi ilmu Ma’ani dalam diskursus modern, seperti komunikasi politik dan keindahan Al-Qur’an, serta memperkaya literatur akademik di bidang linguistik dan filsafat.

    Ripa Rohanda. (0606633). Pengaruh Persepsi Siswa tentang Mata Pelajaran Statika terhadap Motivasi Belajar Siswa Teknik Gambar Bangunan SMKN 2 Garut. Mata pelajaran Statika adalah mata pelajaran produktif yang dirasa sulit untuk dipahami oleh sebagian besar siswa program keahlian teknik gambar bangunan SMKN 2 Garut. Hal ini dikuatkan dengan rendahnya hasil belajar yang diperoleh. Rendahnya hasil belajar pada mata pelajaran statika ini menunjukan bahwa sebagian besar siswa mengalami kesulitan belajar dalam memahami mata pelajaran Statika. Kesulitan belajar ini berhubungan erat dengan motivasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran umum persepsi siswa tentang mata pelajaran statika, gambaran umum motivasi belajar siswa dan seberapa besar pengaruh persepsi siswa tentang mata pelajaran statika terhadap motivasi belajar siswa Teknik Gambar Bangunan SMKN 2 Garut. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kuantitatif serta menggunakan teknik analisis statistik parametris. Populasi pada penelitian ini adalah siswa Teknik Gambar Bangunan SMKN 2 Garut yang sedang dan telah mendapatkan mata pelajaran statika sebanyak 95 siswa, sedangkan sampel penelitiannya sebanyak 50 orang. Pengumpulan data dengan menggunakan metode kuesioner (angket) untuk ke-2 variabel. Hasil Uji kecenderungan diperoleh gambaran umum persepsi siswa tentang mata pelajaran statika kategori kurang baik. Gambaran motivasi belajar dalam kategori kurang baik. Dari diagram pencar dan persamaan regresi didapatkan harga koefisien determinasi yaitu R2 = 57,66 %. Ini berarti bahwa meningkatnya (karena positif) motivasi belajar sebesar 57,66% dapat dipengaruhi oleh persepsi siswa, sisanya 42,34% ditentukan oleh faktor lain dan hubungan linearnya dapat dilihat dari persamaan regresi sederhana yaitu Y M0; = 12,032 + 0,759X. Perhitungan uji hipotesis menggunakan regresi sederhana didapat Fhitung = 65,374 > Ftabel = 4,043 artinya hipotesis H0 ditolak dan Ha diterima yang berarti bahwa “Terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan dari persepsi siswa tentang mata pelajaran statika terhadap motivasi belajar siswa Teknik Gambar Bangunan SMKN 2 Garut.

    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

    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

    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    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
