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
The Influence of Work Discipline, Motivation and Job Satisfaction on Employee Performance in the Directorate of Human Resources, Education and General Affairs
A company in carrying out its activities, will try to achieve the goals that have been set. One thing that must be considered together is that the success of various activities within the company in achieving its goals, not only depends on technological superiority, available operating funds, facilities or infrastructure owned, but also depends on aspects of human resources. No matter how advanced technology, development, information, available capital and adequate materials, without human resources it is difficult for organizations to achieve their goals. Sutrisno (2016). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of work discipline, motivation and job satisfaction on employee performance in the Directorate of HR, Education and General Affairs (Study at Prof.Dr.RDKandou Hospital Manado)
This research uses quantitative methods. Multiple linear regression analysis was used in this study, using a sample of 75 respondents with a sampling technique using a saturated sample. The results showed that . The work discipline variable has a significant effect on the performance of the staff of Dr. Prof. Kandou Hospital Manado. The motivation variable has a significant effect on the performance of the staff of Dr. Prof. Kandou Hospital Manado. The variable job satisfaction has a significant effect on the performance of the employees of Dr Prof Kandou Hospital Manado
Performance Advantages, Work Motivation, Work Discipline, and Their Effect on Employee Performance during the Covid-19 Pandemic (Case Study in the Environment of the Assistant Bureau I Setda of North Sulawesi Province)
In an effort to improve the performance of its employees, an organization takes several ways: the application of remuneration or performance allowances, work discipline, and work motivation. Human resources have an important role to achieve organizational goals in an effort to improve and develop an organization or company. The success of an organization is strongly influenced by the performance of individuals or groups of employees. Therefore, through the provision of motivation, compensation and the application of work discipline greatly affect the performance of the human resources in it. This study aims to determine the effect of partial performance allowances on employee performance, the effect of work motivation partially on employee performance, the effect of work discipline partially on employee performance and the effect of performance allowances, work motivation and work discipline simultaneously on employee performance. This research technique uses Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. The population in this study used a saturated sample, namely all civil servants in the Assistant Bureau I of the Regional Secretariat of North Sulawesi Province, amounting to 93 people. The results of hypothesis testing indicate that performance allowances partially have no significant effect on employee performance, work motivation partially has a positive effect on employee performance, work discipline partially has a positive effect on employee performance, performance allowances, work motivation and work discipline simultaneously have a positive effect on performance. employee. The population in this study used a saturated sample, namely all civil servants in the Assistant Bureau I of the Regional Secretariat of North Sulawesi Province, amounting to 93 people
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
