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
MODIFIKASI PATI GARUT SECARA ENZIMATIS UNTUK PRODUKSI MALTODEKSTRIN
Garut merupakan sumber pati yang belum dimanfaatkan secara optimal. Untuk mengoptimalkannya di antaranya adalah dengan memodifikasi pati garut secara enzimatis menjadi maltodekstrin yang dapat dimanfaatkan dalam berbagai bidang industri pangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji berbagai variabel yang berpengaruh serta mengamati perubahan sifat-sifat fisika maupun kimia dari maltodekstrin yang dihasilkan. Suhu reaksi, lama waktu reaksi, dan konsentrasi enzim berpengaruh secara signifikasn terhadap nilai Dextrose Equivalen (DE) pada maltodekstrin yang dihasilkan, tetapi tidak berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap karakteristik lainnya. Semakin tinggi suhu reaksi, lama waktu reaksi, dan konsentrasi amilase maka Dextrose Equivalen (DE) maltodekstrin yang dihasilkan semakin meningkat. Perlakuan suhu reaksi 85 °C, selama 10 menit dan konsentrasi α-amilase 0,2 % menghasilkan maltodekstrin terbaik dengan rendemen 72,6 , DE 9,57, dan solubility 51,99 % dan warna putih. Kata Kunci : pati garut, maltodekstrin, amilase, dextrose equivalen (DE
PENINGKATAN MUTU, PRODUKSI, DAN DAYA SAING UKM OLAHAN PISANG DAN SINGKONG DALAM UPAYA KEBANGKITAN UKM PASCA PANDEMI
Kondisi pemulihan pasca pendemik Covid-19 menuntut usaha kecil menengah (UKM) untuk bangkit, termasuk kelompok UKM olahan pisang dan singkong yang ada di Desa Cileunyi Kulon, Kabupaten Bandung. Oleh sebab itu, kegiatan Program Kemitraan Masyarakat (PKM) ini bertujuan untuk membantu UKM olahan pisang dan singkong tersebut dalam meningkatkan mutu, produksi, dan daya saing. Kegiatan dilakukan melalui modernisasi mesin dan peralatan produksi serta pelatihan cara produksi pangan olahan yang baik (CPPOB) dan sanitasi pada proses pengolahan. Modernisasi mesin dan peralatan produksi meliputi mesin pengemas kontinyu, mesin perajang keripik pisang dan singkong, mesin pengemas double fungsi (sealing dan cuting), pengemas vakum, serta penepung bumbu. Mesin dan peralatan telah diujicobakan dan dapat berfungsi dengan baik sehingga dapat digunakan oleh pelaku UKM dalam meningkatkan produktivitas dan kualitas produk. Sedangkan pelatihan CPPOB dan sanitasi telah meningkatkan pemahaman pelaku UKM dalam menjaga mutu dan keamanan pangan. Secara umum, kegiatan ini telah membantu pelaku UKM olahan pisang dan olahan singkong di Desa Cileunyi Kulon untuk meningkatkan mutu, produksi, dan daya saing untuk terus bangkit dan berkembang pasca pandemi Covid-19
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
