COHESION DEVICES ON THE LYRICS OF BOB MARLEY’S SONGS
Keywords: Cohesion, Cohesion Devices, Lyric, Bob Marley. This study is about cohesion devices found in the lyrics of Bob Marley’s songs. The objectives are to reveal the kinds of grammatical and lexical cohesion used in the lyrics of Bob Marley’s songs.In conducting this study, the researcher uses descriptive qualitative method, because the data in the form of words, phrases, and sentences. The data of this study is taken form the lyrics of five Bob Marley’s songs, they are: Get Up, Stand Up, One Love, Redemption Song, War, Revolution. In analyzing the data, the researcher uses Halliday and Hasan’s theory to find the kinds of grammatical cohesion and Renkema’s theory to find the kinds of lexical cohesion.The result of this study shows the type of grammatical cohesion which mostly appeared are demonstrative and personal reference, while lexical cohesion which is mostly used is repetition Both cohesion devices have different function.The researcher suggests English learners to consider the usage of cohesion devices for practicing writing and speaking in order to increase their writing andspeaking skills. The suggestion for the lecturers to enrich their teaching materials by using this study as reference and the researcher also suggests the next researcher to take the data from written text to ease the research and conduct a more detailed and deeper analysis by comparing and combining this research with another research
Cohesion Devices on the Lyrics of Bob Marley’s Songs
Penelitian ini menganalisis tentang perangkat kohesi yang ditemukan dalam lirik lagu Bob Marley. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menguak beberapa jenis kohesi gramatikal dan leksikal yang telah digunakan dalam lirik lagu Bob Marley. Dalam melakukan penelitian ini peneliti menggunakan metode kualitatif, karena data penelitian iini dalam bentuk kata-kata, frase, dan kalimat. Data dari penelitian ini diambil dari lirik 5 lagu Bob Marley, mereka adalah: Get Up, Stand Up, One Love, Redemption Song, War, Revolution. Dalam menganalisis data, peneliti menggunakan teori Halliday dan Hasan untuk menemukan jenis-jenis kohesi gramatikal dan teori Renkema untuk menemukan jenis-jenis kohesi leksikal. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tipe kohesi gramatikal yang sering muncul adalah referensi demostratif dan personal, sedangkan kohesi leksikal yang sering dipakai adalah repetisi. Kedua perangkat kohesi tersebut memiliki fungsi yang berbeda. Peneliti menyarankan kepada pelajar bahasa Inggris untuk mempertimbangkan penggunaan perangkat kohesi untuk berlatih menulis dan berbicara dalam rangka meningkatkan kemampuan menulis dan kemampuan berbicara mereka. Saran untuk dosen untuk memperkaya bahan ajar mereka dengan menggunakan penelitian ini sebagai referensi dan peneliti juga menyarankan kepada peneliti selanjutnya untuk mengambil data dari teks tertulis untuk memudahkan penelitian dan melakukan analisis yang lebih rinci dan mendalam dengan membandingkan dan menggabungkan penelitian ini dengan penelitian lain
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
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
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
