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
The Influence of the Southern Surge on Rainfall in the Nusa Tenggara Region East In January 2007
No full textWilayah dengan tipe hujan monsunal pada umumnya memiliki puncak curah hujan pada bulan Januari. Namun pada bulan Januari 2007, sebagian besar wilayah dengan tipe curah hujan monsunal mengalami anomali negatif, yang berarti terjadi penurunan curah hujan. Berdasarkan penelitian Taryono (2012), aktifitas southerly surge berpengaruh terhadap penurunan curah hujan atau fase break monsun di Pulau Jawa. Oleh sebab itu dilakukan penelitian untuk mengetahui keterkaitan antara aktifitas southerly surge terhadap penurunan curah hujan Januari 2007 khususnya di Nusa Tenggara Timur. Indeks southerly surgeditentukan dengan cara menghitung variansi angin meridional harian rata-rata bulan Januari 1980-2010 sehingga memperoleh indeks surge 11,5 m/s. Pada bulan Januari 2007 terdapat dua kali kejadian southerly surge, yaitu pada tanggal 3 dan 11 Januari 2007. Hasil analisis keduanya menunjukan bahwa penurunan curah hujan di wilayah Nusa Tenggara Timur disebabkan oleh aktifitas southerly surge. Southerly surge ini menggeser Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) ke utara sehingga menyebabkan penurunan curah hujan di wilayah Nusa Tenggara Timur, sebagai akibat dari tertahannya massa udara basah dari Belahan Bumi Utara dan masuknya massa udara kering dan dingin dari Belahan Bumi SelatanThe region withmonsoonal type has rainfall peak on January. However, on January 2007, monsoonal type region has negative anomaly, it means that there is a decresing rainfall. Based on research of Taryono (2012), southerly surge activity influenced to the decreasing of rainfall of monsoon break phase at Java island. Therefore, this research was conducted to understand the relation between southerly surge activity to the decreasing of rainfall in January 2007, especially at East Nusa Tenggara.Southerly surge index was conducted by calculating the variance of daily average meridional wind during January 1980-2010, therefore found the surge indices 11,5 m/s. In January 2007 occurs 2 phenomena of shouterly surge on January, 3rd and 11th 2007. The result both of those days show that the decresing of rainfall in East Nusa Tenggara caused by southerly surge activity which is replacing monsoon through Nortward, therefore causes the decreasing of rainfall in East Nusa Tenggara as the effects of the restrained of moist air from Northen hemispere and the coming of dry and cold air from Shoutern hemisper
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

Currency Risk and Debt Maturity: Their Effects on the Resilience of Indonesia’s Foreign Exchange Reserves
Full text linkResearch Originality: This study uncovers the unexpected negative impact of long-term external debt on Indonesia’s foreign exchange reserves, challenging conventional beliefs about debt stability.
Research Objectives: This study provides important—and occasionally surprising—new insights into the dynamics of Indonesia\u27s external debt and its impact on the country\u27s foreign exchange reserves.
Research Methods: Using recent time series data from 2013–2024 and the tried-and-true OLS regression method, this study provides a thorough and timely analysis of the relationship between Indonesia\u27s foreign exchange reserves and the structure of its external debt.
Empirical Results: The empirical results indicate that long-term debt has a negative impact on foreign exchange reserves, whereas Rupiah and foreign currency-denominated debts have positive effects. Notably, short-term debt shows no significant impact. These findings offer practical guidance for Indonesia’s external debt management, supporting better debt prioritization and enhanced financial resilience.
Implications: These novel insights offer valuable guidance for optimizing debt management to strengthen Indonesia’s financial resilience and economic stability.

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
