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

No full textThis article is about a research conducted to design and implement the development of a software model for a program of computer-assisted instruction (CAl) used to remedy senior high school students' achievement in learning mathematics (especially in the 1 quarter ofthe school year in the 2'd grade) as well as to determine the effectiveness ofa model'of CAl, the st level ofstudent achievement in learning mathematics after an implementation ofa model ofcomputer-assisted remedial teaching, and such students' opinion on the implementation of a model of computer-assisted teaching of mathematics at senior high school. The data were collected by giving pre tests and post-tests as well as questionnaires to a random sarnple of senior high school students in the city ofBengkulu taken as the population ofthe research. The computer-assisted remedial teaching was designed and programmed by using Authorware®, a computer program for making computer-based teaching materials using the Windows system ofoperation. To gain the research objectives, the data were analyzed by means ofthe t test and argumentative description. The research findings indicate that statistically the model ofcomputer-assisted remedial teaching ofmathematics has been significantly effective and the level ofstudents'learning achievement after the remedial teaching has significantly improved
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

DETERMINING TSUNAMI VULNEBERABILITY AREA IN BENGKULU CITY WITH SPATIAL ANALYST BASED ON GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEM
No full textThe geographical position places the city of Bengkulu as an area of tsunami vulnerability or area of tsunami prone, but not all areas of Bengkulu is a tsunami prone area, so it needs to be held researching to determine the tsunami prone areas. The purpose of this study was to determine the category of tsunami prone areas in the city of Bengkulu. The Research method is by processing spatial data of the Bengkulu city through Geographic Information System with ArcView program. There are four parameters which are used to determine of tsunami vulnerability areas in a thematic map. The parameters are distance of beach, topography, vegetation, and shape of shore. The results of the research are three categories of area of tsunami vulnerability that are the heavy area of tsunami vulnerability, medium, and safety area. The result of analyze can be displayed by Script avenue programming. The tool of analyze used ArcView 3.3, AV spatial analyst 2.0a, and AV model builder
