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
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
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
Diagnostik Sisaan dan Pendugaan Parameter ?? ?? dan ?? ?? pada Model Linier dalam Rancangan Acak Lengkap
No full textAnalisis Variansi (ANAVA) adalah salah satu metode analisis statistik dalam rancangan percobaan. Sebelum melakukan suatu percobaan, harus memahami tentang asumsi-asumsi yang mendasari suatu metode ANAVA. Asumsi- asumsi tersebut adalah keaditifan, kehomogenan, kebebasan sisaan, dan asumsi kenormalan. Asumsi - asumsi tersebut dapat diperiksa dengan berbagai uji formal, namun terdapat cara lain dalam pengujian asumsi- asumsi ANAVA yaitu dengan melakukan diagnostik sisaan. Di dalam skripsi ini, diagnostik sisaan diterapkan pada model linier rancangan acak lengkap. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data sekunder berupa RAL satu faktor dari penelitian percobaan pakan ternak pada kambing induk yang diteliti oleh M.E Yusnandar pada tahun 2003. Langkah-langkah diagnostik sisaan dalam RAL adalah menentukan nilai harapan dari model linier, menentukan nilai dugaan amatan yang diperoleh dari metode kuadrat terkecil, dan menentukan nilai sisaan percobaan. Dalam skripsi ini, pemeriksaan asumsi pada model linier RAL yaitu asumsi keaditifan model, kehomogenan variansi, kebebasan galat, dan asumsi kenormalan telah terpenuhi
Analisis Terhadap Pelaksanaan Upah Akibat Kebijakan Penangguhan Upah Atas Upah Minimum (Contoh Kasus : Pt. Hansoll Indo) / oleh Hesty Wulandari
No full textPT Hansoll Indo, perusahaan modal asing asal korea mengajukan permohonan penangguhan upah kepada Pemerintah Daerah DKI Jakarta. Gubernur DKI Jakarta dengan SK Gubernur kemudian menyetujui penangguhan upah PT Hansoll Indo. Serikat pekerja yang merasa tidak puas atas adanya SK Gubernur menggugat agar SK Gubernur tersebut dibatalkan dan akhirnya putusan PTUN mengabulkan gugatan serikat pekerja membatalkan SK Gubernur. Upah minimum adalah bentuk perlindungan negara bagi buruh dalam pengupahan, dimaksudkan sebagai standar terendah pembayaran upah kepada pekerja, namun jaring pengaman tersebut dapat ditunda pelaksanaannya dengan penangguhan upah, padahal naiknya kebutuhan hidup pekerja tidak dapat ditunda, terjadi ketidakpastian hukum atas UMP, lantas bagaimanakah pelaksanaan UMP akibat adanya penangguhan upah? Penulis menggunakan metode penelitian normatif dengan pendekatan undang-undang dan dibantu dengan data wawancara dalam meneliti permasalahan. Dalam penelitian menunjukkan perusahaan yang tidak mampu apabila dipaksa membayar sesuai UMP dapat mengakibatkan PHK bahkan kepailitan perusahaan. Upah minimum tidak boleh terlalu tinggi karena jika tidak sesuai dengan kemampuan perusahaan upah minimum dapat menyebabkan perusahaan mengalami kerugian bahkan pailit. Terutama bagi perusahaan asing yang menanamkan modal di Indonesia, mengingat Indonesia masih membutuhkan modal asing untuk menyerap tenaga kerja di Indonesia agar laju ekonomi dapat meningkat. Diperlukan ketelitian dari pemerintah agar dapat mencari titik tengah dari upah minimum yang dapat menyejahterakan pekerja sekaligus tidak memberatkan perusahaan. Sebaiknya kesejahteraan masyarakat tidak hanya dibebankan pada pihak swasta saja, selain itu upah minimum perlu ditunjang dengan aliran bantuan sosial kepada rakyat agar kebutuhan hidup rakyat dapat terpenuhi
Analisis Tingkat Kesiapan Pemerintah Daerah dalam Pengambilalihan Pajak Bumi dan Bangunan Pedesaan dan Perkotaan 1 (PBB-P2) (Studi Kasus Pada Pemerintah Kota Pekanbaru)
Full text linkThis research is intended to know the level of preparedness of Local Government of Pekanbaru City in taking over the authority of management of Property Tax in Urban and Rural Area from central government. Readiness indicators are measured by local regulations, human resources, equipment, financing and cooperation with others. This research uses qualitative method where all data collected by observation and interview with official in Dispenda Office Pekanbaru City. The results showed that the Pekanbaru city government has been quite ready to take over the authority. It shows that almost all the needs that exist and two unmet needs are in the process.
