    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

    Teaching is not only changing one's behavior but more importantly it function to change the school curriculum on such a way that students can learn easily and optimally. It is essential to take an action to improve the students’ ability in math based on their own nature development, particularly in primary schools level. This can be gained by creating the students active participation and regarding their diversity of as conveyed by J. Bruner. In order to improve the quality of learning process, it is necessary to set up a convenience environment known as "discovery learning environment" that is an environment where learners can explore, invent new knowledge, or discover similar to those already known. There are three stages of learning according to J. Bruner, such as enactive, iconic and symbolic stages. The learning process will be gained optimally if the students are involved in enactive stage, and then if this phase of learning is well-achieved, students learn to switch to the second stage by employing the iconic representation mode. Lastly, learning activities are preceded to the third stage, which is the learning phase by using the mode of symbolic representation. By implementation those three learning objectives, it is expected that the process of learning mathematics can achieve the intended goals.ليس الهد٠من التعليم التغيير ÙÙŠ سلوك الطالب ÙØ­Ø³Ø¨. بل التغيير ÙÙŠ المنهج الدراسي كذلك، وهذا ليدرس الطالب أكثر وأسهل. المحاولات لتوÙير Ø§Ù„ÙØ±Øµ للطلاب ليتقدموا سريعا ÙˆÙقا بقدراته ÙÙŠ المادة الخاصة ( خاصة ÙÙŠ المرحلة الابتدائية) ØŒ هذا بالاهتمام نحو اشتراكهم ÙÙŠ التعليم والتعر٠على خصائص الطلاب كما يقوله ج برونر. ولترقية عملية التعليم يحتاج المدرس إلى بيئة (Discovery learning environment ( وهي البيئة التي بها يستطيع الطالب توسيع معلوماته والقدرة على الابداعات أو Ø§Ù„Ù…ÙØ§Ù‡ÙŠÙ… المساوية لما هو معلوم لهم. وبالنظر إلى أن ثمة 3 مراحل ÙÙŠ التعليم كما ذكره ج برونر هي إينكتي٠و إيكونك Ùˆ سيمبولك ØŒ ÙØ¹Ù…لية التعليم سينجح إذا بدئ بمرحلة إيكونيك ثمّ المرحلة الثانية وهكذا. وتطبيق هذه المراحل ÙÙŠ العملية التعليمية خاصة مادة الرياضيات يرجى منه الحصول على الأهدا٠من التعليم

    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

    BEBERAPA KARAKTERISTIK AKSEPTOR YANG BERHUBUNGAN DENGAN PEMILIHAN METODE KONTRASEPSI JANGKA PANJANG (MJKP) DI KELURAHAN KRAMAS KECAMATAN TEMBALANG KOTA SEMARANG

    Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui beberapa karakteristik akseptor yang berhubungan dengan pemilihan MKJP di Kelurahan Kramas Kecamatan Tembalang Kota Semarang penelitian dilakukan pada 74 responden yang merupakan peserta KB aktir MKJP. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian explanatory research dengan menggunakan pendekatancr. Kerangka konsep diadaptasi dari teori Lawrence Green. Variabel terikat yaitu pemilihan MKJP oleh akseptor dan variabel bebasnya adalah tingkat pendidikanm umur n pendapatan keluarga dan jumlah anak. Analisa bivariate yang digunakanut mengetahui hubungan antara variabel terikat dan variabel bebas menggunaka Chi Square dan koefisien kontingensi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa responden yang memilih MKJP sebagian besar tingkat pendidikannya sampai pada pendidikan rendah (64,9%) dan yang berumur lebih dari 35 th sebesar 63,5%. sebagian besar responden mempunyai pendapatan keluarga <=Rp 366.000 perbulan yaitu 56,8%, sedangkan yang memp jumlah anak <=2 sebesar 58,8%.
