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
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
Super Efisiensi Data Evelopment Analysis Dalam Kinerja Lingkungan
No full textData Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a linear programming based method for evaluating performance of comparable production units such as firm. Although the method is already extensively applied in many areas of economics, its use in environmental economics and related fields remains limited. The purpose of this paper is to present basic principles of DEA and evaluate its application possibilities for a range of environmental valuation problems. We show how DEA has to be adjusted to the contexs of environmental performance, eco-eficiency and cost-Benefit analysis (CBA). By modifying the traditional DEA framework to the specific features and purposes of environmental application we show that the valuation principles to which DEA is based on can offer useful insights and complement the conventional toolbox of environmental economics in valuation of the environmental services in general.DEA merupakan sebuah metode berbasis program linier untuk mengevaluasi kinerja dari perbandingan unit-unit produksi didalam sebuah perusahaan. Meskipun metode tersebut telah diaplikasikan diruang lingkup bidang ekonomi, dimana kegunaan terbatas pada lingkup ekonomi dan hal-hal yang berhubungan. tetapi pemakaiannya dalam ekonomi lingkungan dan bidang terkait masih terbatas. Tujuan dari tesis ini adalah untuk menjabarkan prinsip dasar dari DEA dan mengevaluasi kemungkinan aplikasi dalam rentang masalah valuasi lingkungan. Tesis ini menunjukan bagaimana DEA diterima dalam konteks Kinerja Lingkungan, Super-efisiensi dan analisis untung rugi. Dengan memodifikasi kerangka DEA sederhana menjadi kedalam kriteria yang spesifik dan tujuan dari aplikasi Lingkungan, diperlihatkan bahwa prinsip-prinsip valuasi dimana DEA didasarkan dapat menawarkan pemahaman alat konvensional terhadap ekonomi lingkungan dalam memvaluasi pelayanan lingkungan secara umum.57 HalamanTesis Magiste

The travel industry is one of the important things for a country. With the existence of this travel industry, then at that time a country or more specifically the Regional Government where the objects of the travel industry are found, will get paid from the wages of each object of the travel industry. The travel industry is one of the new design ventures, which can provide rapid financial growth in terms of jobs, salaries, lifestyle, as well as in creating other production fields in tourist destinations. Problems that are developed are not prepared and properly supervised, of course it will cause many problems that make it difficult or even make people naughty. To ensure that the travel industry can grow properly, it must be preceded by involving top-down investigations, especially using research on each supporting asset. The results of this study are needed as material for thought and contribution to the city government with the ultimate goal of increasing the tourism potential of the city. For city people, it is believed that with this exploration, people in the city can find out the potential to create a travel industry and further advance the travel industry.

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
