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
MANAJEMEN AGROWISATA UD AGRO PETIK JERUK
Full text linkIndonesia merupakan negara agraris dengan berbagai potensi sumber daya alam dan budaya yang melimpah. Letak geografis Indonesia yang strategis menjadi faktor utama yang sangat berpengaruh bagi pembangunan bangsa dan negara. Kondisi geografis tersebut memberikan peluang besar bagi upaya pembangunan pada sektor pariwisata. Kota Batu menjadi salah satu destinasi wisata yang banyak diminati oleh para wisatawan. Panorama alam yang indah serta udara yang sejuk menjadi ciri khas yang membedakan Kota Wisata Batu dengan kota lain yang ada di Indonesia. Sejak ditetapkan sebagai Kota Wisata pada tahun 2009, pemerintah Kota Batu memberikan perhatian yang lebih pada sektor pariwisata. Kota Batu berupaya terus menerus untuk meningkatkan sarana dan prasarana dalam melayani kunjungan wisatawan yang semakin meningkat tiap tahunnya. Pariwisata merupakan sektor yang memberikan peluang prospektif bagi perkembangan Kota Batu. Kontribusi sektor pariwisata diharapkan mampu mendorong pertumbuhan sektor pembangunan lainnya termasuk pertanian. Salah satu unsur dari sektor pertanian yang potensial di Kota Batu adalah agrowisata. Kegiatan agrowisata menjadi suatu upaya untuk meningkatkan serta mengembangkan potensi pertanian sebagai objek wisata baik berupa pemandangan alam kawasan pertaniannya maupun kekhasan budaya masyarakat petaniny
PERTANIAN ORGANIK SEBAGAI UPAYA KONSEP PERTANIAN BERKELANJUTAN DI UPT PELATIHAN PERTANIAN SINGOSARI
Full text linkPembangunan pertanian di Indonesia diarahkan menuju pembangunan pertanian yang berkelanjutan (sustainable agriculture), sebagai bagian dari implementasi pembangunan berkelanjutan (sustainable development). Pembangunan berkelanjutan adalah upaya sadar dan terencana yang memadukan aspek lingkungan hidup, sosial, dan ekonomi ke dalam strategi pembangunan untuk menjamin keutuhan lingkungan hidup serta keselamatan, kemampuan, kesejahteraan, dan mutu hidup generasi masa kini dan generasi masa depan. Sejak munculnya program revolusi hijau, petani mengenal penggunaan pupuk buatan, benih unggul, pestisida antihama, dan sebagainya. Akan tetapi, kemudian terjadi ketergantungan petani terhadap pemakaian pupuk buatan, pestisida antihama, dan benih unggul. Adanya Penerapan Revolusi Hijau pada usahatani memiliki implikasi dan dampak positif dan negatif tersendiri. Berdasarkan Kerangka Segitiga Konsep Pembangunan Berkelanjutan suatu kegiatan pembangunan (termasuk pertanian dan agribisnis) dinyatakan berkelanjutan, jika kegiatan tersebut secara ekonomis, ekologis dan sosial bersifat berkelanjutan. Penerapan revolusi hijau secara ekonomi memang berdampak positif namun secara ekologis dan sosial, program ini membawa masalah dampak serius dalam waktu jangka panjang. Secara ekologi bahan kimia yang tinggi membawa dampak serius dalam waktu jangka panjang terutama pada pemadatan tanah, erosi, penurunan kesuburan tanah secara keseluruhan dan gangguan kesehatan pada manusia akibat mengonsumsi bahan pangan berunsur kimia bahkan berdampak terhadap kelestarian keanekaragaman hayati. Adanya dampak tersebut menyebabkan munculnya pertanian organik sebagai menjadi salah satu solusi dari permasalahan jangka panjang akibat pengunaan pupuk kimia dan pestisida secara berlebihan
