Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Ketentuan Calon Kepala Daerah Dari Pns Menurut Undang-Undang Nomor 5 Tahun 2014 Tentang Aparatur Sipil Negara
Undang-Undang Dasar 1945 mengisyaratkan bahwa setiap warga negara memiliki hak yang sama untuk mencalonkan diri sebagai calon kepala daerah. Isyarat ini tertuang dalam Pasal 28D ayat (3) yang menyebutkan bahwa “Setiap warga negara berhak memperoleh kesempatan yang sama dalam pemerintahan”. Berdasarkan Pasal 123 ayat 3 Undang-Undang Nomor 5 Tahun 2014 tentang Aparatur Sipil Negara menyatakan bahwa Pegawai ASN dari PNS yang mencalonkan diri atau dicalonkan menjadi gubernur dan wakil gubernur; bupati/walikota dan wakil bupati/wakil walikota wajib menyatakan pengunduran diri secara tertulis sebagai PNS sejak mendaftar sebagai calon. Untuk itu, dibutuhkan penelitian lebih lanjut untuk mengetahui landasan pertimbangan PNS harus mundur jika maju dalam Pilkada. Maka dari itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan dan menjelaskan landasan pertimbangan sehingga PNS harus mundur dari jabatan organiknya jika maju sebagai calon kepala daerah. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah yuridis normatif yang menitik beratkan pada penelitian data kepustakaan atau yang disebut data sekunder, serta mengkaji peraturan perundang-undangan berkaitan dengan persyaratan pencalonan bagi PNS yang maju sebagai calon kepala daerah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa PNS harus mundur dari jabatan negeri adalah bagian dari ketundukkannya terhadap aturan-aturan yang mengatur birokrasi pemerintahan dan aturan-aturan kepegawaian karena ketika seseorang telah memilih menjadi PNS maka dia telah mengikatkan diri dalam ketentuan-ketentuan yang mengatur dirinya sebagai aparatur negara. Selain itu, agar terhindar dari adanya penyalahgunaan wewenang karena hal itu melanggar hukum
Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
The Protection of Online Shopping Consumer Rights in Australia
As one of the advanced countries in the world, Australia is putting technology as main instrument in dealing with daily activity, included in shopping. Therefore, nowadasys, many Australian rely on online shopping. It seems everything becomes easier when it is dealt online. People do not need to go outside their home and spend their money. What they can merely need is just sit at home and wait for the order. Thus, online shopping can be argued is more effective and efficient in this era. However, beyond this positive aspect, there are also some negative aspects. Among them is the quality of the product. Buyers (consumers) would never see goods or services directly. They only view the products or services through pictures or videos which are available on the website. The problem is, these images and videos might not be as good as reality. The vendors post the high quality pictures and videos on the site merely to attract consumers. Another issue is, difficult to communicate with the seller after buying the product. During the negotiation, it is easy to contact seller, but after the products are sold, majority vendors would “disappear”. Security payment is among on the risk list as well. Therefore, it is interesting to be researched, how the Australian law then protects its society from such risk. The Government claims that the Australian Competition and Consumer (ACC) Act 2010 has become law umbrella in protecting Australian in dealing with online shopping
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
We 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
