    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

    Abstract The mass media, not just serve as the grantor information, the amusement and social control or fourth power as a nation ( the four estate ), but also as a form of public opinion who directs and public opinion in the issues developing world. Reporters when covering an event and writing it has a tendency to subjective and biased. The problem of bias in the press is not a matter of who, or of what system, is supported. The problem is that the bias exists, and the system through which our media operates seems guaranteed to ensure that bias will continue. Journalistic product in the media is not the whole of the reality of the society but only parts of reality that described as realities. In a so-called media image. The news media in a determined by its media ownership, and other factors it has a very significant role aside from bias a journalist   Key Word: Objectivity, Media Biased, Media Imag

    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

      AbstractThe demand for quality human resources in order to compete in the ASEAN Economic Community or the ASEAN Free Market is a challenge for educational institutions to continuously improve their quality in preparing human resources with good morals and have competitive advantages. The current development of public relations is quite encouraging. Public relations or public relations is no longer an unfamiliar term. The term is indeed quite popular and has become popular in Indonesia and the public relations profession is now becoming a "trend" in society. This is indicated by the increasing number of institutions or companies that place public relations in their organizational structures, including in educational institutions. The purpose of this research is to find out the Function and Role of Public Relations in Educational Institutions. The theory used in this study is the role of public relations according to Dozier & Broom as follows: Expert Prescriber, Communication Facilitator, Problem solving process facilitator, Communication technician. The approach and research method used in this study are qualitative descriptive. In this study, it was determined who became the key informants and informants. If it is related to the main problem of the research, the author determines the purposive technique namely: Principal and Deputy Principal. Based on the explanation of the discussion it can be concluded that the position of public relations in the 3 schools that were used as samples differed. There are others that are doubled by other parts but some have started to have a stand-alone public relations department so that the roles and functions of public relations are different. However, the role and function of public relations is still not in accordance with what it should be. There are still schools that feel it is not important to have public relations. Whereas in other schools, the role of public relations has been little seen even though it is only aimed at just one public such as industry.  Keyword: PR Function, Role of PR, Public Relations Education Institution &nbsp

    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

    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
