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
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
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
Maize Maize Development with Planting Methode the Zig-Zag System for Increasing Productivity in the Tidal Swampland: Pengembangan Jagung dengan Metoda Tanam Sistem Zig-Zag untuk Meningkatkan Produktivitas di Lahan Rawa Pasang Surut
No full textMaize is the second main food commodity in the Indonesian economic system. The self-sufficiency was achieved in 2017, however the nation\u27s corn production to decrease and import value in 2018 and 2019 increased by 60.98% and 25.49% or about 1.15 million tons and 293,210 tons. The projection of cornproduction until 2024 will increase by about 24.04 - 24.98 million tonsof dry peel with a growth rate of about 2.05%. The development of maize in the tidal swampland by the extensification of the planting area is very possible, particularly on the C, C/D, and D overflow type land that is about 3.36 million hectares wide. According to the growth rate, the planting area increasedby about 75,000 ha would contribute about 396.750 tons/year to the nation\u27s production. One of the planting methods that could be applied for maize plants to increase productivity and corn production is the Zig-Zag System. The zig-zag system could increase plant population by around 60-80% and yield 30-40% per hectare. The development of hybrid variety with the Zig-Zag system by the 75 x 25 x 12.5 cm spacing 100-hectare wides in the acid sulfate land conducted in South Kalimantan, could be increasing the corn productivity achieved 14 ton/ha dry peel with 15% water content. The development of maize with planting methods the zig-zag systems in the tidal swampland very prospectively to supporting an increase of nation corn production.Jagung salah satu komoditas pangan strategis kedua pada sistem perekonomian nasional di Indonesia. Swasembada jagung sudah dicapai pada tahun 2017, tetapi faktor produksi jagung nasional menurun dan volume impor jagung pada tahun 2018 dan 2019 meningkat menjadi 60,98% dan 25,49% atau sebesar 1,15 juta ton dan 293.210 ton. Proyeksi produksi jagung nasional pada tahun 2024 akan meningkat 24,04 - 24,98 juta ton pipilan kering dengan laju pertumbuhan sekitar 2,05%. Pengembangan jagung di lahan rawa pasang surut melalui perluasan areal sangat prospektif, khususnya pada lahan tipe luapan C dan C/D yang luasnya sekitar 3,66 juta ha. Sesuai laju pertumbuhan maka pertambahan luas areal tanam jagung sekitar 75.000 ha dan akan memberi kontribusi terhadap produksi nasional sebesar 396.750 ton per tahun. Salah satu metoda tanam yang dapat diterapkan meningkatkan produktivitas dan produksi jagung adalah sistem zig-Zag. Sistem tanam zig-zag meningkatkan populasi tanam sekitar 60-80% dan meningkatkan hasil jagung 30-40%. Pengembangan jagung hibrida sistem zig-zag dengan jarak tanam 75 x 25 x 12,5 cm di lahan sulfat masam seluas 100 ha sudah dilaksanakan di Kalimantan Selatan, dapat meningkatkan produktivitas jagung 14 ton/ha pipilan kering dengan kadar air 15%. Pengembangan tanaman jagung dengan metoda tanam sistem zig-zag di lahan pasang surut sangat prospektif untuk mendukung peningkatan produksi jagung nasional
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
