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
Prospects for the Development of Halal, Thoyib, and Hygienic Food Production During the New Normal Covid-19 Period as Supporting Pillars of National Food Security
No full textThe background of this research is that the government claims that the Covid-19 pandemic has actually increased consumer awareness on the consumption of halal products, ranging from food products, beverages, traveling, to cosmetics. The government also seeks to increase awareness of the development of halal and thoyib products. This is supported by the data the authors obtained from various literatures. The legal issues raised in this study are formulated into several problem formulations, namely whether regulations and supervision regarding the development of halal products in Indonesia can meet all sharia principles regarding halal, toyib, and hygienic considering that Indonesia is a muslim majority? How is the process of developing the ability of producers and SMEs in Indonesia in developing halal products? How is the category of halal certification for products in Indonesia as one of the important categories for food products to meet the principles of halal and thoyib? Based on this formulation, this study analyzes the regulation and supervision of halal product development, halal product development process, and categories of halal, thoyib, and hygienic food products that are in accordance with LPPOM MUI halal food standards so that these products can be certified as halal products. The purpose of this research is to be able to develop halal, thoyib, and hygienic food production during the Covid-19 period as a supporting pillar of national food security. The method used is the normative juridical research method. This research is descriptive research with the source of the data used in this study was obtained from library research. The results of this study, namely the data that the authors obtained indicate that there has been an increase in public awareness on the consumption of halal products, ranging from food products, beverages, traveling, to cosmetics during the Covid-19 period. In line with this, the government also continues to strive to increase awareness of the development of halal and thoyib products
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
