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
PEMBANGUNAN KAPASITAS: STUDI MANAJEMEN PEMBERDAYAAN KELUARGA PADA POS PEMBERDAYAAN KELUARGA (POSDAYA) DI SUMATERA BARAT
Full text linkTulisan ini membahas tentang pembangunan kapasitas dan pembelajaran untuk menyelidiki bagaimana pengembangan pemberdayaan masyarakat nagari di Provinsi Sumatera Barat dalam meningkatkan kesejahteraan dan pengentasan kemiskinan. Dan juga mengeksplorasi cara-cara di mana manjemen pemberdayaan dapat memberikan peluang dan peningkatan kapasitas untuk masyarakat. Posdaya merupakan suatu forum silaturahmi, advokasi, komunikasi, informasi, edukasi dan sekaligus wadah koordinasi penguatan fungsi keluarga secara terpadu. Posdaya memberikan hasil yang nyata dalam membangun pelayanan publik yang baik dalam mendukung program pemerintah. Karena itu, pemerintah daerah perlu mensiasati kegiatan pos daya di masyarakat agar dapat berlangsung dengan sinergi dan berkelanjutan dengan terus membina dan mendampingi. Maka perlunya masing-masing aktor pembangunan meningkatkan peran-peran edukatif, fasilitatif, representatif dan teknis. Kegiatan posdaya membutuhkan relawan yang tidak hanya yang siap dalam hal fisik namun juga mental dan spiritual. Metodologi Penelitian : Literature Riview dan pendekatan studi kasus terhadap Posdaya-posdaya di Sumatera Barat
Understanding the determinants of hybrid human resource management in private higher education institutions in Indonesia
No full textFormular un modelo adecuado de gestión de recursos humanos (GRH) es necesario para fomentar que la
calidad de las universidades privadas sea más alta en los rankings nacionales y globales. Este estudio
examina la influencia de la filosofía de GRH, la cultura organizacional, el liderazgo paternalista y el
diuwongke en la GRH híbrida. Esta investigación distribuyó cuestionarios que involucran 173 programas
de estudio en universidades privadas en Indonesia. El modelado de ecuaciones estructurales de mínimos
cuadrados parciales revela que la filosofía apropiada para mejorar la GRH híbrida es la acumulación. La
cultura apropiada es orientada a la innovación. Además, el liderazgo paternalista afecta directa e
indirectamente la GRH híbrida a través del diuwongke. Este estudio formula un modelo que facilita los
intereses de los empresarios y empleados en las universidades privadas, construido mediante un desarrollo
intensivo de recursos humanos a través de la filosofía de acumulación, cultura orientada a la innovación,
liderazgo paternalista y diuwongke. Este estudio confirma que las características locales son necesarias
para establecer buenas prácticas de GRH híbrida. Se necesita más investigación para confirmar este
modelo en países occidentalesFormulating a suitable human resource management (HRM) model is necessary to encourage the quality
of private universities to be higher in the national and global rankings. This study examines the influence
of HRM philosophy, organizational culture, paternalistic leadership, and diuwongke on hybrid HRM. This
research distributed questionnaires involving 173 study programs at private universities in Indonesia.
Partial least square structural equation modeling reveals that accumulation is the appropriate philosophy
for improving hybrid HRM. The appropriate culture is innovation-oriented. Furthermore, paternalistic
leadership affects hybrid HRM directly and indirectly through diuwongke. This study formulates a model
that facilitates the interests of entrepreneurs and employees in private universities, built by intensive
human resource development through accumulation philosophy, innovation-oriented culture, paternalistic
leadership, and diuwongke. This study confirms that local characteristics are necessary to establish good
hybrid HRM practices. Further research is needed to confirm this model in Western countrie
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
