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
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
THE FORECASTING OF CURLY RED CHILI PRICE (Capsicum annum L.) IN BENGKULU CITY
Curly red chili is one of the contributors to inflation because the price of curly red chili fluctuates and is influenced by the season. Fluctuations in chili prices will result in economic instability and increased inflation which will lead to a decrease in people's ability to meet their daily needs, thereby increasing poverty. This research was conducted in Bengkulu City because red chili production continues to decline due to the conversion of agricultural land into housing. The data used is time series data on the price of curly red chili at the retailer level per day in March 2021 – May 2025 which was converted into monthly data by averaging. This data was obtained from the National Food Agency. Judging from the pattern of chili price developments in August - November 2025, there was an increase in prices, while in August - November 2024 there was a decrease. At the end of 2024, prices are expected to fall due to good weather conditions so that the harvest of curly red chili can be maximized. Meanwhile, at the end of 2025, prices will increase due to weather conditions that will enter the rainy season. From March 2021 to July 2024, the highest price of curly red chili was IDR 84,000/Kg, namely in July 2022, while the lowest price was IDR 22,000/Kg in June 2021. The price of curly red chili in June 2025 - December 2025 was remained drop at price of IDR 28,000/Kg, it could fluctuate due to various factors impacting chili cultivation
KINERJA FINANSIAL USAHATANI CABAI MERAH KERITING (Capsicum annum L.) BERDASARKAN STRATA LUAS LAHAN DI DESA SUKA SARI KECAMATAN KEBAWETAN KABUPATEN KEPAHIANG
Kabupaten Kepahiang merupakan sentra produksi cabai merah keriting dengan
produktivitas tertinggi di Provinsi Bengkulu. walaupun produktivitas cabai merah
keriting tinggi harga cabai cenderung berfluktuatif sehingga keberlanjutan usaha perlu
diperhatikan. Untuk melihat perkembangan suatu usahatani bisa dilihat dari laporan
keuangannya dari sana kita bisa melihat apakah perkembangan usahatani baik atau
tidak.
Penelitian bertujuan untuk menganalisis 1) Bagaimana kinerja finansial dalam
analisis rasio likuiditas berdasarkan strata luas lahan pada usahatani cabai merah
keriting di Kabupaten Kepahiang. 2) Bagaimana kinerja finansial dalam analisis rasio
rentabilitas atau profitabilitas berdasarkan strata luas lahan pada usahatani cabai merah
keriting di Kabupaten Kepahiang. 3) Bagaimana kinerja finansial dalam analisis rasio
solvabilitas berdasarkan strata luas lahan pada usahatani cabai merah keriting di
Kabupaten Kepahiang. Penelitian dilakukan di Desa Suka Sari Kecamatan Kebawetan
Kabupaten Kepahiang. Metode penentuan sampel yang digunakan adalah Stratified
Purposive Sampling dengan jumlah responden sebanyak 26 petani cabai merah keriting
yang di bagi ke dalam tiga strata yang berbeda. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah
analisis rasio keuangan yang terdiri dari analisis rasio likuiditas, rasio rentabilitas dan
rasio solvabilitas. Rasio likuiditas, rentabilitas dan solvabilitas usahatani cabai merah
keriting pada ketiga strata luas lahan baik yang berarti usahatani mampu membayar
hutang jangka pendek dan jangka panjangnya serta layak untuk terus dijalankan.
Kata Kunci : Cabai Merah Keriting, Kinerja Finansial, Strata Luas Laha
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
