    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

    Analysis of the Causes of Divorce Suits From A Gender Perspective in the Religious Court of Selong, East Lombok

    Get PDF
    The increase in divorce reflects changes in society, which no longer considers divorce to be taboo, but rather a common phenomenon. This study aims to identify the factors causing divorce in the Selong Religious Court from a gender perspective and to analyze divorce rulings in the Selong Religious Court from the perspective of mubadalah theory. This study is a field study using a case study and legal-empirical approach, with primary data collected from court decisions and interviews with judges, as well as secondary data from legal references. The results of the study reveal that the factors causing divorce at the Selong Religious Court are economic problems, domestic violence, alcohol or drug dependence, neglect of one party, and prolonged disputes. The rulings in these cases align with the theory of mubadalah, encompassing five mutually supportive pillars: establishing a strong agreement as a trust from God, upholding the principles of partnership and reciprocity, regularly consulting with one another, treating each other with kindness, and creating comfort in interacting with one another

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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

Quantitative data from questionnaires on the understanding and implementation of Pancasila values in economic learning in schools. The conclusion of the research on Pancasila Economics as an economic science with a new paradigm that was born from the condition of economic scholarship in Indonesia is hegemonized by western thought.

    Pancasila as the nation's philosophy must be used as the main foundation of education in Indonesia. Economic education does not only transfer economic knowledge, but must also transfer Pancasila values as economic actors who are not only rational but also have high social sensitivity and concern. This research aims to examine the concept and implementation of Pancasila as a foundation for economic education in Indonesia. This research is classified as descriptive research regarding expert opinions referred to in several references (textbooks and journal articles) published online. The results of the study show that Pancasila is the basis for formulating and implementing the education curriculum in Indonesia, especially in the independent learning curriculum which emphasizes the Pancasila Student Profile. So far, Pancasila values are still partially taught as specific subjects so they have not been comprehensively integrated into educational and economic learning materials. The results of a review of various relevant research results show that economic education material in Indonesia is dominated by the philosophical foundation of neoclassical-capitalist materialism which is not relevant to national ideolog
