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
Convenience Component of Walkability in Malang City Case Study the Street Corridors Around City Squares
AbstractMalang city as the second biggest city in East Java Province tends to be less convenient recently. The traffic jam almost happen every day. The situations lead to the jay walking pedestrians. This case study analyzed the convenience component of walkability (CCW) at the street corridors around Alun-Alun Merdeka (AAM) and Alun-Alun Bunder (AAB). The CCW variables consist of the pedestrian infrastructure (PI). The PI indicators were the obstructions, cleanliness-maintenance, amenities and diffable supports. The PI data collecting method was adopted from the global walkability survey guide book and modified to suit the condition. The PI data were scored from 1-5 for semantic scale. The data were analyzed by descriptive-quantitative-interpretive methods. The score results was 2,31 (at range: bad to fair) thus the PI need to be improved. It concluded that ‘roofing’ indicator played the important role due to the convenience and needed to conduct next research to study other factors
