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
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
Eigendom: A Dutch Colonial Legacy in Indonesia's Land Ownership System in Case Number 109 PK/Pdt/2022
Get PDFIdeally, Indonesia's land ownership system should have fully adopted the provisions of the 1960 Basic Agrarian Law (Undang-Undang Pokok Agraria or UUPA), which abolished eigendom as a form of property ownership. However, in reality, legal disputes persist regarding former eigendom verponding land, as seen in Case Number 109 PK/Pdt/2022. This case reflects legal issues concerning land rights originating from the colonial system and their implications for legal certainty in land ownership in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the legal status transformation of eigendom verponding after the enactment of the 1960 UUPA and to examine the legal impact of the Judicial Review (Peninjauan Kembali or PK) decision in Case Number 109 PK/Pdt/2022. This article falls under qualitative library research using a normative legal study methodology. The findings indicate that the legal status of eigendom verponding has been converted according to national agrarian regulations. However, in practice, differences in legal interpretation continue to arise, leading to land ownership disputes. Case 109 PK/Pdt/2022 reaffirms that land title certificates issued under agrarian law provisions hold greater legal recognition than ownership claims based on colonial-era eigendom verponding
PERILAKU AMAN BERKENDARA PENGEMUDI TRUK TANGKI BBM (STUDI KUALITATIF DI PERUSAHAAN DISTRIBUSI BBM PT X KOTA SEMARANG)
Get PDFPerilaku mengemudi yang aman membantu untuk menghindari masalah lalu lintas. Hal ini dipengaruhi oleh beberapa hal seperti faktor pemudah, faktor pemungkin, dan faktor penguat. Keselamatan mengemudi merupakan dasar pelatihan mengemudi lebih lanjut yang lebih memperhatikan keselamatan bagi pengemudi dan penumpang. PT X adalah agen resmi PT. Pertamina (Persero) yang bertugas untuk memasarkan dan menjual BBM non subsidi untuk sektor industri dan lain sebagainya. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan perilaku aman berkendara pada pengemudi truk tangki BBM PT X. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif yang dilakukan pada bulan Juni 2017. Informan utama dalam penelitian ini adalah lima orang pengemudi truk tangki yang memiliki riwayat kecelakaan dan dua orang informan triangulasi yaitu manajer operasional dan kepala pengemudi yang berperan langsung dalam kegiatan operasional pendistribusian BBM. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pengemudi memiliki pengetahuan yang baik tentang perilaku aman berkendara. Pengemudi menunjukkan sikap positif tentang penerapan perilaku aman berkendara. Pengemudi sepakat bahwa dengan adanya aturan dan pelatihan mengemudi akan membentuk perilaku aman dalam berkendara. Peran pengawasan atasan dirasa tidak mempengaruhi perilaku aman berkendara pengemudi truk tangki tetapi peran rekan kerja dan keluarga memberikan pengaruh positif. Oleh karena itu perusahaan diharapkan untuk menyusun SOP, mengadakan pelatihan mengemudi, dan membuat program pengawasan saat perjalanan mengemudi sehingga perilaku aman berkendara seluruh pengemudi PT X menjadi baik
