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
The Signification of Nyeni: Tanda-Gambar dalam Komunikasi-Rupa
Full text linkDi dalam komunikasi rupa diketahui ada dua model, yaitu model komunikasi yang dibangun dalam masyarakat tulis (literate) dan model komunikasi yang dibangun dalam masyarakat tutur (non-literate). Derida (1982 dalam Ouzman, 2000: 32) menyatakan bahwa logika komunikasi masyarakat tutur tidak sama dengan komunikasi dari masyarakat modern yang berbudaya tulis. Masyarakat tutur adalah sekelompok orang yang belum atau tidak terbiasa dengan budaya tulis, masyarakat itu misalnya orang pedalaman (primitif), anakanak, nelayan, petani dan tentunya masyarakat prasejarah. Primadi (1991: 686) dalam penelitiannya menyatakan bahwa gambar yang dibuat masyarakat prasejarah mempunyai derajat kesamaan cara menggambar setinggi 92,105% dengan gambar anak, gambar tradisional dan gambar primitif. Oleh Primadi ketiga gambar itu dimasukkan ke dalam golongan gambar pendahulu, yaitu gambar yang mencerminkan cara berkomunikasi dari masyarakat tutur.Bila masyarakat tutur sudah mempunyai cara untuk berkomunikasi melalui gambar, maka tentunya perlu mengkaji sifat-sifat gambar yang terkait dengan tanda-tanda komunikasi. Fokus tulisan ini akan membahas sifat-sifat khas gambar yang menjadi tanda-tanda dalam komunikasi rupa. Pengkajian keilmuan tanda-tanda komunikasi khas gambar didasarkan keilmuan bahasa rupa. Hal ini karena keilmuan bahasa rupa dibangun dalam konteks perupaan, bukan bahasa seperti pada semiotik
Les Defferance* Du Nyeni: Dalam Latar Bahasa Rupa dan Semiotik
Full text linkSemiotika atau ilmu tanda lahir di dalam kekentalan budaya tulis. Semiotika adalah keilmuan yang berkembang dengan membedah gejala bahasa dan teks. Kepustakaan semiotika pada kenyataannya sangat bernuansa teks bahasa bukan 'teks' gambar. Atas dasar itu, perlu ditinjau sejauh apa perbedaannya dan sedekat apa persamaan antara tanda pada gambar dengan tanda pada bahasa, tentunya di dalam latar komunikasi rupa
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
The Creation Process of Nyeni
Full text linkSitus gambar cadas (rock-art, cave-painting, l'art parietal) merupakan fenomena yang mendunia. Situs gambar cadas (garca) merupakan musium yang berisi bukti bahwa manusia Homo sapiens (manusia keturunan Adam-Hawa) mempunyai kemampuan berimajinasi dan sekaligus mewujudkan imajinasinya. Tak ada mahluk Tuhan lainnya yang sanggup membayangkan imajinasi dan kemudian mewujudkannya.Garca dan situsnya diyakini menyiratkan informasi yang mencerminkan buah pikiran (perasaan dan pengetahuan) tentang kehidupan dan kepercayaan manusia prasejarah. Garca hadir dalam suatu 'ruang' (goa, gunung, cadas, cliff) tertentu yang terkait dengan makna-makna kehidupan manusia prasejarah. Oleh karena itu garca sebagai suatu informasi menyiratkan bagian penting dalam ritual masyarakat prasejarah, sehingga tak heran bila digambarnya pun di lokasi-lokasi (ruang) yang menimbulkan 'gejolak' perasaan tertentu bagi masyarakat prasejarah.Manusia prasejarah yang membuat wujud (visual) garca memang bermaksud agar informasinya tersampaikan kepada para pelihatnya. Mekanisme penyampaian informasi penggambar garca (kreator, produsen, sender) kepada pelihat garca (pembaca, aseptor, receiver) adalah bagian dari mekanisme komunikasi-visual. Syarat utama berkomunikasi visual tentunya mempunyai pola-pola yang berulang. Dalam kaitan ini, boleh dikatakan pola-pola berulang yang diwujudkan pada garca menyiratkan informasi-informasi yang dipahami manusia prasejarah ketika itu.Proses kreasi yang mendasari pola-pola itu yang akan ditinjau secara singkat dalam makalah ini, dengan maksud agar dapat lebih menghayati gambar cadas prasejarah. Fokus gambar cadas pada makalah ini adalah mengenai gambar cadas prasejarah Kutai, atau garca Kutai prasejarah
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
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
