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
ISLAM, HAK DAN KESEHATAN REPRODUKSI
No full textIslam is often preceived as a religion that give lack attention to the rights of
reproduction for women. Islam is considered as religion that views reproduction as
women’s duty and never views women’s rights in relation to reproduction. In one
hand, as the functions of reproduction, a woman has some duties to be pregnant, give
birth, breast feed, and take care of her children as well as other duties related to
these. But, on the other hand, woman’s rights related to reproduction are often
ignored. Moreover, conventinal interpretation often leads muslims to have a
perception that choosing a marital partner, enjoying sexual intercouse, having
children, deciding when to be pregnant, and the decision to divorce are not parts of
woman’s rights. All of these decisions are commonly hold by a man. Such problem
often occurs in Majlis Ta’lim in Banyumas Regency, especially one in Cikembulan,
District of Pekuncen, which most of the members are women.
This is a qualitative research mostly depending on the ability to observe,
interview, and interpret. The analysis used in this research was qualitative data
analysis using verstehen model. The research findings are: generally memebers of
Salma al-Fareeha assume that the right to decide pregnancy and to have children is
the right of husband because it is the husband who is responsible to work (nafkah) to
support the family. Although some of them said that they made the decision
together, some others said that the husband decide what contraception to be used by
the wife. This fact shows that the ideals and the reality of the rights of reproduction
in the majlis ta’lim were influenced by their level of understanding the religion,
education, experience, and age. The younger they are, they realize more about the
importance of reproduction health for women
KONSEP DAKWAH RABBANIYAH DALAM PERSPEKTIF AL-QUR’AN (Kajian Tafsir maudhu’i atas surat al-Ahzab ayat 9-27)
No full textAl Ahzab 9 to 27 discusses manhaj Allah fi da’wa al- jama’ah al Muslim, that is a concept Allah applied to guide al-jamaah al-muslim to be a strong and powerful community to face the world ’s conspiracy which tries to break down Muslim existence. lt also contains a guide for the prophet to merely give his trust and resignation to Allah. These verses include the goal, target, method, output, and evaluation of the concept of da ’wa Rabba- niyah in actualizing li’ila kalimatillah. This shows that human beings as the khalifah on the earth are not left without guidance from Allah but provided with the universal rules. As a result, if human beings are committed to Allah ’s concept, they will be safe and happy in facing the enemies of Islam
