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
Pola Penyelenggaraan Pendidikan dan Pelatihan Di Balai Diklat Keuangan Kota Malang
Full text linkAbstract: Balai Diklat Keuangan (BDK) Malang is one of the educational institutions and training under the auspices of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia.

Proses pembelajaran pada diklat lebih di tekankan pada pengembangan skill peserta pelatihan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pola penyelenggaraan pendidikan dan pelatihan di Balai Diklat Keuangan Kota Malang. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis rancangan studi kasus. Lokasi penelitian ini di Balai Diklat Keuangan Kota Malang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1) BDK Kota Malang memiliki karakteristik pelatihan yang ditunjang oleh sumberdaya manusia yang bekerja sesuai dengan SOP yang ada di atasnya. Mengingat lembaga ini bekerja sesuai dengan BDK Kota Malang tidak bisa mengembangkan jenis mata diklat secara mandiri yang bersifat terbuka untuk umum. Artinya lembaga ini hanya menyelenggarakan diklat untuk SDM di kawasan Kemenkeu; (2) proses pengelolaan dan pengembangan Diklat di BDK Kota Malang diatur dalam dua tahapan yang saling melengkapi; dan (3) diklat-diklat yang diselenggarakan oleh BDK Kota Malang memiliki pola yang cukup berbeda dengan diklat-diklat yang ada di tempat lain
IMPLEMENTASI PELAKSANAAN PELATIHAN KESIAPSIAAGAN DALAM MENGHADAPI BENCANA BAGI GENERASI MUDA
Full text linkAbstrak: Bencana merupakan peristiwa yang mengancam dan mengganggu kehidupan masyarakat yang disebabkan oleh faktor alam maupun non-alam. Berdasarkan pengalaman bencana masa lalu tersebut, maka terdapat beberapa permasalahan terkait dengan pemahaman masyarakat tentang bencana di wilayah antara lain: 1) masih mengabaikan kondisi lingkungan sekitar; 2) belum memahami tentang prinsip-prinsip kesiapsiagaan terhadap bencana; 3) belum memahami manajemen kebencanaan 4) belum mampu mengidentifikasi risiko bencana dan melakukan upaya preventif; 5) belum tahu cara untuk melakukan tindakan preventif yang tepat sebelum terjadi bencana; 6) belum mengetahui cara menetukan upaya pertolongan pertama pada diri sendiri dan/atau orang sekitarnya pada pasca bencana. Lembaga Mitra yang akan bekerjasama dengan tim pengusul kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat adalah lembaga SMA Negeri 1 Wates Kediri. Berkaitan dengan permasalahan tersebut, maka hal inilah yang melatarbelakangi kerjasama untuk mensinergikan kebutuhan belajar tentang kebencanaan yang dimasukkan dalam kurikulum.

Abstract: Disasters are events that threaten and disrupt people's lives caused by natural and non-natural factors. Based on the experience of past disasters, there are a number of issues related to people's understanding of disasters in the region, including: 1) still ignoring the condition of the surrounding environment; 2) do not understand the principles of disaster preparedness; 3) do not understand disaster management 4) have not been able to identify disaster risks and take preventive measures; 5) do not yet know how to take appropriate preventive actions before a disaster occurs; 6) do not yet know how to determine first aid efforts in themselves and / or those around them in the aftermath of a disaster. The Partner Institution that will collaborate with a team that proposes community service is the Wates Kediri Public High School 1 institution. In connection with these problems, this is the background of cooperation to synergize the learning needs of disaster included in the curriculum. The training methods and techniques used include: lectures, discussions, demonstrations, and simulations. Trainers / training facilitators from the PMI Kediri Regency Branch and BPBD Kediri Regency
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
