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
A systematic literature review on the role of Islamic monetary policy in Indonesia’s economic development
This study examines the relationship between Islamic monetary policy and Indonesia’s economic development through a systematic literature review (SLR) approach. The research aims to identify how Islamic monetary instruments contribute to achieving national economic goals of justice, equality, and sustainable growth. Data were collected from thirteen indexed journal publications in Scopus, DOAJ, and Sinta databases that discuss Islamic monetary policy and its role in Indonesia’s economy. The results show that Islamic monetary instruments such as the Wadiah Bank Indonesia Certificate (SWBI) and the Interbank Mudarabah Investment Certificate (IMA) enhance liquidity management, stabilize prices, reduce unemployment, and promote equitable wealth distribution. The findings indicate that Islamic monetary frameworks contribute significantly to financial stability, real-sector productivity, and social welfare. However, structural and institutional challenges remain, including regulatory inconsistencies and limited integration between Islamic banking and national monetary policy. The study contributes theoretically by reinforcing the role of Sharia-based instruments in achieving maqasid al-shariah and practically by offering insights for policymakers to strengthen coordination, financial literacy, and innovation in Sharia-compliant monetary mechanisms. Future research should incorporate empirical and econometric models to assess the quantitative impact of Islamic monetary policy on key macroeconomic indicators such as inflation, employment, and GDP growth
Comparative Analysis of Roman-Persian Political and Economic Periods with Contemporary in Islamic Perspectives
This study investigates the comparative dynamics of economic politics during the Roman-Persian period and the contemporary era through the lens of Islamic economic principles. It explores key dimensions such as resource management, wealth distribution, and the societal impact of policy, particularly in relation to social inequality, resource exploitation, and moral degradation. Employing a qualitative methodology based on an extensive literature review of secondary sources, this research reveals that while the Roman-Persian political economy succeeded in maintaining imperial stability, it also perpetuated significant social disparities through excessive taxation and territorial exploitation. In contrast, the modern economic paradigm, driven by technological innovation and global integration, remains susceptible to systemic crises and widening inequities. The findings suggest that core Islamic tenets—namely zakat, the prohibition of usury (riba), and equitable wealth distribution—offer a normative framework for constructing a more just and resilient economic order, both historically and in contemporary contexts
Studi Sytematic Review: Faktor Yang Mempengaruhi Food Waste Global Dalam Perspektif Hifzhul Bi'ah
This systematic review study analyzes the factors influencing food waste in various countries from the perspective of Hifzhul Bi'ah. The problem of food waste is a significant challenge because it impacts global food availability. From an Islamic ethical perspective, this phenomenon contradicts the principles of Hifzhul Bi'ah (Environmental Jurisprudence), which aims to realize the public good and prevent damage (israf) on earth. This study used a Systematic Review method based on PRISMA guidelines, reviewing 15 articles published between 2020–2025, predominantly from Indonesia. Most studies applied the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM PLS) methodology. Key factors that consistently influence food waste are Attitude, Subjective Norms, and Behavioral Control, as well as additional factors relevant to the moral aspects of Hifzhul Bi'ah, such as Religiosity and Environmental Awareness. The findings indicate that food waste is a multifactorial phenomenon, involving internal psychological/moral and external social/economic dimensions. A holistic and contextual mitigation strategy is needed, which explicitly integrates the sharia guidance of Hifzhul Bi'ah, to encourage sustainable anti-waste behavior and support the achievement of the SDG
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
