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
Analisis Yuridis Instrumen dan Mekanisme Transaksi Pasar Modal Syariah di Indonesia
Get PDFPasar modal secara nyata telah menjadi penggerak finansial suatu Negara atau dunia. Pasar modal dijadikan sebagai suatu pilihan pengganti sumber pendanaan untuk suatu perusahaan, serta sarana berinvestasi bagi investor. Instrumen yang diperjual-belikan di pasar modal berupa efek yang dapat diperdagangkan kembali oleh pemiliknya dalam bentuk saham atau diwujudkan dalam bentuk obligasi. Pada prinsipnya, instrumen yang terdapat di pasar modal bentuknya beraneka ragam, karena semua efek atau surat berharga dapat diperjual-belikan. Untuk instrument di pasar modal syariah yang boleh diperjual-belikan hanya apabila memenuhi prinsip syariah. Instrumen dalam pasar modal syariah dapat berbentuk saham syariah, obligasi syariah, reksadana syariah dan efek beragun aset (EBA) syariah.
Mekanisme transaksi penjualan dan pembelian saham yang dilakukan pada pasar modal syariah tidak boleh dilakukan secara langsung, hal ini untuk menghindari para spekulan untuk mempermainkan harga. Dalam proses perdagangan saham, aktivitas jual-beli tidak dilakukan secara langsung, melainkan pihak yang melakukan penawaran umum memberikan kekuasaan dan keleluasaan kepada agen di lantai bursa yang bertugas untuk mempertemukan perusahaan dengan calon investor. Saham tersebut kemudian diperjual-belikan karena tersedia dan berdasarkan pada prinsip first come-first served
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
Faktor Penyebab Timbulnya Kepatuhan Masyarakat Terhadap Hukum (Legal Obedience)
Get PDFThis study aims to determine the factors causing the emergence of public compliance with the law, through studies and analysis of a variety of literature both print and from various other social media. Community compliance with the law can essentially be interpreted as loyalty from the community as a legal subject that is realized through actions or behaviors that comply with existing law.Based on the results of the study, the authors conclude that there are two factors causing the emergence of community compliance with the law, namely internal and external factors. Internal factors are encouragement from within an individual that makes him obey the law without coercion from any party. Internal factors can be in the form of an individual's awareness of the benefits of the law, the belief that the law is made to realize a common goal, and other things that arise from the individual. While external factors can be interpreted as factors that encourage individuals to comply with laws that come from outside the individual self. External factors can include rewards, coercion, threats and other things that come from outside the individual
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
