Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
PERANAN FENOMENOLOGI DIDAKTIS PADA PENDIDIKAN MATEMATIKA REALISTIK TERHADAP KEMAMPUAN PENALARAN, ARGUMENTASI, DAN HABITS OF MIND MATEMATIS SISWA SMP

Sukirwan (2019). Peranan Fenomenologi Didaktis pada Pendidikan Matematika Realistik terhadap Kemampuan Penalaran, Argumentasi, dan Habits of Mind Matematis Siswa SMP.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peranan fenomenologi didaktis pada Pendidikan Matematika Realistik (PMR-FD) terhadap pencapaian dan peningkatan kemampuan penalaran matematis (KPM) dan habits of mind matematis (HoM), serta argumentasi matematis siswa. Metode campuran (mixed methode) dengan tipe concurrent triangulation design ditetapkan dengan membandingkan pencapaian dan peningkatan KPM dan HoM pada tahap kuantitatif serta argumentasi matematis pada tahap kualitatif. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswa SMP kelas VIII di kota Tangerang tahun pelajaran 2016/2017, sedangkan sampel penelitian, meliputi: siswa kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol pada satu sekolah level sedang dan satu sekolah level rendah. Unit penelitian pada tiap kategori sekolah dikelompokkan berdasarkan pengetahuan awal matematis (PAM) siswa, meliputi: PAM kategori tinggi, sedang, dan rendah. Pada fase kuantitatif, pencapaian dan peningkatan KPM dan HoM siswa yang mendapatkan PMR-FD lebih baik dibandingkan dengan siswa yang mendapatkan pembelajaran matematika biasa (PMB), baik secara keseluruhan, pada PAM kategori tinggi dan sedang, sekolah level sedang serta sekolah level rendah. Interaksi yang signifikan terjadi antara faktor PAM dan pembelajaran terhadap pencapaian dan peningkatan KPM dan HoM, serta antara faktor level sekolah dan pembelajaran terhadap peningkatan HoM. Namun, interaksi tak terjadi antara faktor level sekolah dan pembelajaran terhadap pencapaian KPM dan HoM serta peningkatan KPM. Pada fase kualitatif, argumen induktif, aljabar, visual, dan perseptual adalah tipe argumen yang muncul dari hasil konstruksi argumentasi siswa. Kemunculan tipe-tipe argumen ini cukup variatif dengan didominasi oleh siswa kelompok PMR-FD. Di samping itu, siswa memiliki penilaian yang berbeda terhadap argumen yang meyakinkan. Meskipun demikian, kecenderungan siswa memilih argumen induktif lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan tipe argumen lainnya. Berdasarkan pada hasil kuantitatif dan kualititatif diperoleh bahwa kemampuan penalaran, habits of mind, dan argumentasi matematis sama-sama mendapatkan pengaruh yang positif dari PMR-FD.

ABSTRACT
Sukirwan (2018). The Role of didactic phenomenology on realistic mathematics education toward the students’ Mathematical reasoning ability, argumentation, and habits of mind of junior high school.
This study aims to analyze the role of didactic phenomenology on realistic mathematics education (RME-DP) toward the students’ achievement and improvement of mathematical reasoning ability (MRA) and habits of mind (HoM), as well as mathematical argumentation. Mixed method with concurrent triangulation design is applied by comparing the students’ achievement and improvement of RME-DP and HoM at the quantitative phase and mathematical argumentation at the qualitative phase. The population in this study were all eighth-grade of junior high school students in Tangerang City in academic year 2016/2017, while the sample of the study included: experimental and control groups in medium level school and low-level school. The study units in each school category were grouped based on students' prior mathematical knowledge (PMK), including PMK in high level, medium level and low level ability. In quantitative phase, the students’ achievement and improvement of MRA and HoM are better than students who get regular mathematics learning (RML), both in PMK in high and medium level ability, medium-level schools and low-level schools. Significant interactions occurred between PMK and learning factors towards the achievement and improvement of MRA and HoM, as well as between school-levels and learning factors to increase HoM. However, interactions did not occur between school-levels and learning factors towards the achievement of MRA and HoM as well as MRA. In qualitative phase, inductive, algebraic, visual, and perceptual arguments are types of arguments that arise from the results of student argumentation construction. The emergence of these types of arguments is quite varied, dominated by RME-DP group students. Also, students have a different assessment of convincing arguments. However, the tendency of students to choose inductive arguments is higher than other types of arguments. Based on the quantitative and qualitative results, it is founded that reasoning skills, habits of mind, and mathematical arguments shared positive effects from RME-DP.

Variations on the Author
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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

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.
