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

MANGNGADE: CIRI TRADISI MEGALITIK DI DESA WANUAWARU, MALLAWA, MAROS
Full text linkMangngade or ‘performing custom’ is a common activity in Wanuawaru Village, Mallawa District, Maros Regency, which is conducted in December and January. The problem in this research is how Wanuawaru villagers doing it and how position Manggade to Wanuawaru Villagers. There are three stages during the Mangngade procession namely visiting salo, gathering in Saoraja, and gathering in Bulu Posso. In Mangngade, the community performs prayers related to agriculture to avoid natural disasters, to beg for peace, safety, and success of personal life. The methods of data collection are ethnographic method and archaeological data recording. The results of data recording are then analyzed using concept in megalithic culture. Based on those data, it is finally concluded that Mangngade is the character of a megalithic tradition that is still carried out by the Wanuawaru villagers from generation to generation for confession about their community.Mangngade atau ‘menjalankan adat’ merupakan kegiatan masyarakat di Desa Wanuawaru, Kecamatan Mallawa, Kabupaten Maros, yang dilakukan pada bulan Desember dan Januari.

MEMAKNAI LUKISAN GUA UHALIE: PENDEKATAN STRUKTURALISME LÉVI STRAUSS
Full text linkSouth Sulawesi is an area that has many prehistoric painting sites. Research on the meaning of the painting is still very limited. Therefore this paper attempts to examine the meaning contained the Uhalie Cave site by Lévi Strauss structuralism approach. The issues raised in this paper are how the meaning of Uhalie Cave paintings and why anoa and pigs became the object of paintings in the Uhalie Cave. The answer obtained from the issues will explain the behavior of a group of painters located in the village. The methods used in this study are collecting secondary data of Uhalie Cave Research, then doing analysis of painting classiffication, finding the pattern of painting in the cave, finding sintagmatic, paradigmatic, transformation, determining signified-signifer, and distinctive feature. The result of this study explain that the happines and grief manifestation of Uhalie Cave human in hunting.Sulawesi Selatan merupakan wilayah yang memiliki banyak situs lukisan prasejarah. Penelitian terhadap makna lukisan tersebut masih sangat terbatas, oleh karena itu karya tulis ini mencoba mengkaji makna yang terkandung pada situs Gua Uhalie dengan menggunakan pendekatan strukturalisme Lévi Strauss. Masalah yang diangkat dalam tulisan ini adalah bagaimana makna lukisan Gua Uhalie dan mengapa anoa dan babi menjadi objek lukis di Gua Uhalie. Jawaban yang didapatkan dari permasalahan tersebut akan menjelaskan tingkahlaku kelompok pelukis yang terletak di daerah pedalaman. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini mengumpulkan data sekunder hasil penelitian Gua Uhalie kemudian melakukan analisis klasifikasi lukisan, menemukan pola keletakannya, menetukan tanda-penanda (signified-signifer), sintagmatik, paradigmatik dan transformasi, serta menentukan ciri pembedanya (distictive feature). Hasil penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa lukisan tersebut merupakan perwujudan suka duka manusia pendukung Gua Uhalie dalam melakukan perburuan
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
