    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

    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

    Background: Today, there are many sought a safe natural antioxidant source, mainly derived from plants. Some fruits and vegetables shown to have high antioxidant activity. Carrot have a lot of antioxidant. During this carrot has not been used optimally. Jam is a semi-solid food made from fruit and sugar. Jam usually made of the crushed fruits. The addition of carrots in jam is expected to add the content of the antioxidant activity and preferred by the consumers so that could become one of the new alternative in an effort to diversify sources of antioxidant for food product. Objective: This study aims to determine the phisycal character, organoleptic character, and the antioxidant activity of the pineapple jam with mix variations of the carrot. Method: The kind of this study is experimental with simple random design. Results: The test data result of the phisycal character, organoleptic character, and the antioxidant activity analyzed by using the descriptive method. The more mix variations of the carrots so the color of the jam became more orange, the taste became langu like the typical of carrot, the smell became langu also like the typical of carrot, and the texture became smoother. The preffered color jam is the mix variations of carrots color 35%. The preffered smell of the jam is the mix variations of carrots 25%. The preffered taste of the jam is mix variations of carrots 35%. The preffered texture of the jam is mix variations of carrots 25%. The more mixture of carrots, the antioxidant activity of pineapple jam became higher. Conclusion: There is a difference in phisycal character, organoleptic character, and the antioxidant activity in pineapple jam with mix variations of carrots.   Key words: pineapple jam, carrot, phisycal character, organoleptic character, and the antioxidant activit

    HUBUNGAN TINGKAT PENGETAHUAN DAN SIKAP DENGAN PERILAKU WANITA USIA SUBUR PADA PEMERIKSAAN INSPEKSI VISUAL ASAM ASETAT Annisa Romadhani, Idi Setiyobroto, Sari Hastuti Jurusan Kebidanan Poltekkes Kemenkes Yogyakarta Jl. Mangkuyudan, Mantrijeron, Yogyakarta Email : [email protected] ABSTRAK Latar Belakang: Kanker serviks menempati peringkat teratas penyebab kematian pada wanita di berbagai negara termasuk Indonesia. Pencegahan kanker serviks yang paling efektif yaitu melalui deteksi dini Pemeriksaan Inspeksi Visual Asam Asetat (IVA). Di Indonesia, capaian pemeriksaan IVA masih jauh dari target pemerintah, hal ini disebabkan karena rendahnya partisipasi Wanita Usia Subur (WUS) dalam melakukan pemeriksaan secara dini. Faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku WUS antara lain pengetahuan dan sikap. Tujuan penelitian: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan dan sikap dengan perilaku WUS pada pemeriksaan IVA. Metode Penelitian: Jenis penelitian ini adalah analisis korelasi dengan desain crossectional. Menggunakan teknik purposive sampling yang terdiri dari 96 WUS. Teknik pengambilan data dengan pembagian kuesioner. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji univariat dan bivariat dengan uji korelasi spearman. Hasil penelitian: Berdasarkan karakteristik responden sebagian besar berusia ≥30 tahun dengan tingkat pendidikan menengah (SMA/SMK), dan bekerja. Sebagian besar WUS tidak pernah mendapatkan vaksinasi HPV dan menggunakan kontrasepsi hormonal. Berdasarkan hasil analisis menunjukkan tingkat pengetahuan WUS tentang pemeriksaan IVA dengan kategori cukup, sikap WUS terhadap pemeriksaan IVA sebagian besar memiliki sikap positif, dan sebagian besar WUS tidak pernah melakukan pemeriksaan IVA sebesar 75%. Hasil analisis uji rank spearman, menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara tingkat pengetahuan dengan perilaku (p<0,05), serta adanya hubungan antara sikap dengan perilaku (p<0,05). Kesimpulan : Ada hubungan tingkat pengetahuan dan sikap dengan perilaku WUS pada pemeriksaan IVA Kata Kunci : IVA, Pengetahuan, Perilaku, Sikap, WUS

    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
