    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

    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

    Full text link
    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

    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

    Hospital as a place to cure various kinds of diseases can also be a probable cause of environmental pollution, health disorder and disease spread. To prevent this happening, the hospital environment or infrastructures need to be well maintained according to the existing stipulation. The Decree of Indonesian Minister of Health No. 875/N4enkes/Sl7Vllll200l on the Environmental Management and Observation Efforts Organization (UKL- UPL) in terms of Health Activities requires the class C hospital and that of the same class to do the environmental management and observation efforts which is stated in the form of written document. In line with the decreeNo. 875/2001, the Indonesian Minister of Health issued the decree No. 1204IMENKES/S2)V2004 on the Requirernents of Hospital Environmental Health. Based on these documents, the quality of hospital environmental health should have been shown through the performance of the hospital itself. This study aims at examinimg the relationship between the ownership of UKL and UPL documents and the meeting of environmental health requirements of class C hospital or that of the same class in Medan in 2006. The components of hospital environmental health studied include building, rooms, process of making food healthy, process of making clean water halthy, liquid and solid waste management, linen washing, pest (rat and insect) control and extension. This is an observational study with cross-sectional study design. To examine the relationship between the hospital with or without UKL-UPL documents and the meeting of environmental health requirements, the t-test for two independent variables is used. The result of this study reveals that it is only 60% of the 30 class C hospital or those of the same class which have the UKL-UPL documents. The result of the test done to the hospital with or without the UKL-UPL documents reveals that they only have a significant difference in the variable of liquid and solid waste management (p < 0,05). It is concluded that the existence of UKL-UPL documents has not become a guarantee in the effort of meeting of environmental health requirements and there is a significant difference in waste management between the hospital with and without UKL-UPL documents. It is recommended that the hospital implement their environmental management and observation efforts in accordance with the documents they have and the hospital that have not had the documents should immediately make it available. The government is suggested to monitor and periodically evaluate the hospital activity especially the activity dealing with the environmental management and observation effortsRumah sakit sebagai tempat penyembuhan berbagai jenis penyakit, juga mempunyai resiko memungkinkan terjadinya pencemaran lingkungan, gangguan kesehatan serta dapat menjadi penyebab penularan penyakit. Untuk mencegah hal tersebut, maka lingkungan maupun primirana rumah sakit perlu dipelihara dengan baik sesuai dengan ketentuan yang berlaku. Keputusan Menteri Kesehatan RI No.875/Menkes/SK/VIII/2001 tentang Penyusunan upaya Pengelolaan Lingkungan dan Upaya Pemantauan Lingkungan (UKL-UPL) Kegiatan Bidang Kesehatan mewajibkan rumah sakit kelas C atau yang setara melakukan Upaya Pengelolaan 'Lingkungan dan Upaya Pemantauan Lingkungan yang tertuang dalam bentuk dokumen. Sejalan dengan peraturan tersebut terbit pula Kepmenkes RI No. 1204IMENKES/SKDV2004 tentang Persyaratan Kesehatan Lingkungan Rumah Sakit. Dengan adanya dokumen tersebut maka sudah seharusnya kualitas kesehatan lingkungan rumah sakit tercermin pada performa rumah sakit itu sendiri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan kepemilikan dokumen UKL dan UPL terhadap pemenuhan persyaratan kesehatan lingkungan rumah sakit kelas C atau yang setara di kota Medan tahun 2006. Komponen kesehatan lingkungan rumah sakit yang diteliti mencakup Gedung, Ruangan, Penyehatan makanan, Penyehatan air bersih, Pengelolaan limbah padat dan cair, Pencucian linen, Pengendalian serangga & tikus dan Penyuluhan. Penelitian ini merupakan studi Observasional dengan menggunakan rancangan studi Cross Sectional. Untuk mengetahui hubungan rumah sakit yang mempunyai dokumen UKL-UPL maupun yang tidak mempunyai dokumen UKL-LIPL terhadap pemenuhan persyaratan kesehatan lingkungan rumah sakit, digunakan uji t-test untuk dua variabel independent. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari 30 rumah sakit kelas C atau yang setara di Kota Medan baru 6Ao/o yang memiliki dokumen UKL-UPL. Berdasarkan uji beda antara rumah sakit yang memiliki dokumen dengan yang tidak memiliki dokumen menunjukkan bahwa hanya pengelolaan limbah padat dan cair rumah sakit yang tendapat perbedaan secara signifikan (p < 0,05). Kesimpulan hasil penelitian ternyata keberadaan dokumen UKL-UPL belum merupakan jaminan di dalam upaya pemenuhan syarat kesehatan lingkungan rumah sakit serta adanya perbedaan dalam pengelolaan limbah secara signifikan antara rumah sakit yang mempunyai dokumen UKL-UPL dengan rumah sakit yang tidak mempunyai dokumen UKL-UPL. Rekomendasi yang dapat diajukan kepada pihak rumah sakit agar melaksanakan UKL-UPL sesuai dengan dokumen yang dimiliki, dan bagi rumah sakit yang tidak memiliki agar segera menyusun dokumen. Bagi pihak pemerintah agar melakukan monitoring dan evaluasi terhadap kegiatan rumah sakit secara berkala utamanya terhadap UKL-UPL125 HalamanTesis Magiste

    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
