Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
Peran kajian keislaman Komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid dalam mengembangkan sikap Syaja’ah: Studi kasus pada remaja di Masjid Syaikh Sulthan Al-Khadlir Kabupaten Subang, Jawa Barat
Get PDFABSTRAK
Acep Setiawan : “Peran Kajian Keislaman Komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid Dalam Mengembangkan Sikap Syaja’ah (Studi Kasus Pada Remaja di Masjid Syaikh Sulthan Al-Khadlir Kabupaten Subang, Jawa Barat)”
Keinginan untuk belajar dan mengikuti kegiatan keagamaan bukanlah hal yang ringan, entah itu bagi remaja, orang dewasa maupun orang tua yang sudah sangat matang secara usia. Pada remaja contohnya, diusia ini bermain, berwisata, berkumpul bersama teman merupakan kegiatan yang mereka sukai dan kerap dilakukan. Cukup sulit apabila mereka yang terbiasa dengan kegiatan tersebut kemudian diarahkan untuk belajar dan mengikuti kegiatan keagamaan. Namun ternyata faktanya tidaklah mutlak demikian, banyak kita temukan para remaja yang mau belajar dan berperan serta dalam kegiatan kegamaan, salah satunya adalah para remaja komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid.
Hal yang melatar belakangi para remaja di komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid itu mau aktif mengikuti kegiatan keagamaan adalah seringnya mereka mengikuti kajian keislaman yang diadakan oleh komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid.
Oleh karena itu penulis ingin meneliti hal ini melalui skripsi yang berjudul “Peran Kajian Keislaman Komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid dalam Mengembangkan Sikap Syaja’ah”. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui isi dari kajian keislaman komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid serta bagaimana perannya dalam mengembangkan sikap syaja’ah pada remaja.
Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode deskriptif kualitatif dengan menekankan pada kekuatan analisis data pada sumber-sumber data yang ada, sehingga hasil penelitian tidak berupa angka-angka melainkan berupa interpretasi dan kata-kata. Teknik pengumpulan data yang dilakukan melalui obsevasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi.
Hasil penelitian menunjukan, bahwa proses kajian keislaman komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid yaitu berisikan tentang pendalaman masalah tauhid, fikih, tasawuf, amalan sunah dan juga ada materi tentang praktek riyadhoh amalan-amalan sunah. Adapun hasil yang dicapai setelah mengikuti kajian keislaman komunitas Para Pejuang Tauhid adalah mulai adanya ketertarikan dalam berlajar agama, ibadah pribadi lebih terjaga, mau terlibat dalam kegiatan keagamaan dan adanya keberanian untuk mendakwahkan Islam kepada masyarakat

Penurunan Kadar Amonia dan Nitrat Limbah Cair Rumah Pemotongan Ayam menggunakan Metode Elektrolisis dengan Anoda PbO2 dan Katoda Pb
Get PDFLimbah cair Rumah Pemotongan Ayam (RPA) merupakan salah satu penyumbang masalah pencemaran air limbah. Salah satu alternatif untuk mengatasi masalah pencemaran limbah cair RPA adalah menggunakan metode elektrolisis dengan memanfaatkan elektroda PbO2/Pb limbah sel aki bekas. Penggunaan elektroda PbO2/Pb mampu memproduksi radikal hidroksil sehingga oksidasi senyawa organik dapat terjadi. Telah dilakukan penelitian untuk pengolahan limbah cair RPA dengan metode elektrolisis menggunakan elektroda PbO2/Pb dengan tujuan mengetahui pengaruh variasi waktu elektrolisis dan tegangan listrik terhadap penurunan kadar amonia dan nitrat. Proses elektrolisis dilakukan menggunakan variasi waktu yang berbeda-beda dengan variasi tegangan listrik 3, 6, 9, dan 12 volt. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa semakin besar tegangan listrik yang digunakan semakin singkat waktu elektrolisis. Persentase penurunan kadar amonia pada tegangan listrik 3 volt dan waktu 195 menit adalah 99,56%, tegangan listrik 6 volt dan waktu 160 menit adalah 99,79%, tegangan listrik 9 volt dan waktu 130 menit adalah 99,84%, serta tegangan listrik 12 volt dan waktu 100 menit adalah 99,92%. Sedangkan persentase penurunan kadar nitrat pada tegangan listrik 3 volt dan waktu 235 menit adalah 99,34%, tegangan listrik 6 volt dan waktu 215 menit adalah 99,68%, tegangan listrik 9 volt dan waktu 175 menit adalah 99,71%, serta tegangan listrik 12 volt dan waktu 130 menit adalah 99,83%
