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
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
AL-ISLĀM MIN AL-TA'ĀLĪM ILĀ AL-TAṬBĪQĀT, MUSYKILAT AL-JISR AL-MAQṬU'
No full textهذا البحث يهدف إبراز المشكلات الكبرى التي تقطع وصول الإسلام من التعاليم إلى التطبيقات في العصر الحالي مع إيضاح الحلول العلمية لتلك المشكلات، فما هي تلك المشكلات الكبرى، وما هي الحلول العلمية لها؟ يستخدم البحث الوسيلة المكتبية في جمع البيانات، والمنهجَ الاستقرائي والاستنباطي في تحليل البيانات. لقد دلت البيانات على أن تلك المشكلات الكبرى تتمثل في ثلاث مشكلات، وهي: 1) مشكلة قلة بل عدم زاد المسلمين في اللغة العربية، 2) ومشكلة العلاقة التعاملية بين المعلم والمتعلم، 3) ومشكلة أسلمة أو إسلامية المعرفة بين قبولها وردها. وتتمثل الحلول العلمية لها في ثلاثة حلول، وهي: 1) لا بد للمسلمين كلهم أن يعتمدوا على اللغة العربية للتعرف على حقيقة الإسلام التي لا تكتب إلا بمداد اللغة العربية. 2) العمل بعقائد الإسلام وأحكامه، وبآداب الدعوة إلى الله والمنهج الشرعي في الأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر، ثم الإخلاص والاستقامة في ذلك كله والإعراض عن أهواء أنفسهم، وأهواء الناس ومشتهيات نفوسهم وعصبياتهم وأنانياتهم الفردية أو الجماعية. 3) الأخذ بموقف الغزالي تجاه علوم ومعارف الفلاسفة، وهو يتمثل في أن نرد على تطبيق أسلمة أو إسلامية المعرفة في المعارف الرياضية بأجمعها، وأن نقابل تطبيقها بقبول حسن في معظم المعارف الإلهية، وأن نرد على تطبيقها في معظم المعارف المنطقية، وأن نقابل تطبيقها بقبول حسن في المعارف الطبيعية بأجمعها. ونظرية دروين في أصل الإنسان وتطوره مثال من أمثلة المعارف التي كنا بحاجة إلى أسلمتها.كلمات مفتاحية: التعاليم، والتطبيقات، ومشكلة الجسر المقطوع.AbstractThis study aims to describe the main problems that decide the arrival of Islam in the present era from Teachings to Implementation, as well as explain the scientific solutions of these problems, what are the main problems and what are the scientific solutions? This study uses Media Library (Library Research) in collecting data, using an inductive and deductive approach to data analysis. The data shows that there are three main problems: 1) Problems with the lack of even provision of Muslims in Arabic, 2) Problems of interaction between teachers and students, and 3) Islamization Problems in Science between Pros and Cons. The scientific solution to these 3 main problems is: 1) All Muslims must return and rely on Arabic to recognize the essence of Islam which is not written except with Arabic ink. 2) Realizing Islamic Laws and Laws, Da'wah Ethics Codes and Shari'a Methods in Am'r Ma'ruf and Nahi Munkar, then Ikhlas and Continuous in all these matters, and turning away from Lust, Desire, Personal or Group Fanaticism, of yourself and others. 3) Taking the attitude of al-Gazza> li to Philosophical Science, namely rejecting the implementation of Islamization of Science in the sciences of reckoning as a whole, accepting its implementation well in the majority of aspects of the Divine Sciences, rejecting its implementation in the majority of Logic Sciences, and accepting its implementation well in the Natural Sciences. Darwin's theory of human origins and their evolution is one example of science that we need to implement the Islamization of science in it. AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk memaparkan Problema-problema utama yang memutus sampainya Islam di era kekinian dari Ajaran menjadi Implementasi, begitu juga menjelaskan Solusi-solusi ilmiah dari Problema-problema tersebut, apa saja Problema-problema utama itu dan apa solusi-solusi ilmiahnya? Penelitian ini menggunakan Media Pustaka (Library Research) dalam mengumpulkan data-datanya, menggunakan pendekatan induktif dan deduktif untuk analisa data. Data menunjukkan bahwa masalah utama ini ada tiga: 1) Problematika minimnya bahkan nihilnya bekal kaum Muslimin dalam bahasa Arab, 2) Problematika hubungan interaksi antara guru dan siswa, dan 3) Problematika Islamisasi Ilmu pengetahuan antara Pro dan Kontra. Adapun solusi ilmiah terhadap 3 masalah utama ini ialah: 1) Seluruh kaum muslimin harus kembali dan bersandar pada Bahasa Arab untuk mengenal Esensi Islam yang tidak dituliskan kecuali dengan tinta Bahasa Arab. 2) Merealisasikan Akidah dan Hukum-hukum Islam, Kode Etik Dakwah dan Metode Syari'at dalam Am'r Ma'ruf dan Nahi Munkar, kemudian Ikhlas dan Kontinyu dalam semua hal tersebut, serta berpaling dari Hawa Nafsu, Hasrat, Fanatisme Pribadi atau Kelompok, dari diri sendiri dan orang lain. 3) Mengambil sikap al-Gazza>li terhadap Ilmu Pengetahuan Filosof, yaitu menolak implementasi Islamisasi Ilmu Pengetahuan dalam ilmu-ilmu hisab secara keseluruhan, menerima implementasinya dengan baik dalam mayoritas aspek Ilmu Ketuhanan, menolak implementasinya dalam mayoritas Ilmu Logika, dan menerima implementasinya dengan baik dalam Ilmu-ilmu Alam. Teori Darwin tentang asal-usul Manusia dan Evolusinya merupakan salah satu contoh Ilmu Pengetahuan yang kita perlu mengimplementasikan Islamisasi Ilmu Pengetahuan didalamnya

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.
