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

AbstrakPersoalan kebakaran lahan dan hutan yang melibatkan banyak faktor dan kepentingan, memerlukan kerjasama berbagai stakeholder atau pemangku kepentingan atau jejaring kerjaantar-organisasi (inter-organizational network). Terlebih, dalam proses governance berkonsekuensi pada jejaring kerjaantar-organisasi yang terlibat dan berkepentingan Penelitian ini bertujuan Untuk mengkaji dan menganalisis Faktor Penentu Penerapan Jejaring Antar Organisasi (inter-organizational network)dalam Pengendalian Karhutla di Kabupaten Rokan Hilir.Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Provinsi Riau, khususnya di Kabupaten Rokan Hilir. Metode yang dilakukan adalah kualitatif. Data yang diperlukan dalam penelitian ini terdiri atas data primer dan data sekunder. Yang menjadi unit analisis dalam penelitian ini adalah orang-orang yang dianggap memiliki pengetahuan tentang Faktor Penentu Penerapan Jejaring Antar Organisasi (inter-organizational network)dalam Pengendalian Karhutla di Kabupaten Rokan HilirHasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kebakaran Hutan dan lahan yang terjadi di Kabupaten Rokan Hilir lebih banyak terjadi pada perkebunan perusahaan dan selebihnya dari kebun masyarakat. Faktor Penentu Penerapan Jejaring Antar Organisasi (inter-organizational network) dalam Pengendalian Karhutla di Kabupaten Rokan Hilir adalah : Regulasi, lingkungan politik, lingkungan sosial budaya, sumberdaya manusia, sarana dan prasarana,dananggaran. Rekomendasi penelitian ini adalah Memprioritaskan program pengendalian karhutla di Kabupaten Pelalawan, mulai dari pencegahan, pemdaman, hingga pemulihan pascakebakaran serta Pemerintah Daerah mensosialisasikan secara massif pembukaan lahan dengan cara membakar tidak membakar (metode tanpa bakar/zero burning), serta penyediaan sarana dan prasarana untuk mencegah, menanggulangi dan perbaikan pasca terjadinya kebakaran hutan dan lahan.Kata kunci : Implementasikebijakan, jejaringantarorganisasi, kebakaranhutan dan laha
Ethnoecological Analysis for Implementation of Inter-organizational Networks in Forest and Land Fires Policy
Forest fires are the most detrimental cause of forest destruction because in a short time, they can cause economic, ecological, aesthetic, and political losses. The purpose of this study is to analyze forms of biodiversity conservation carried out by local communities (ethnoecology) of people living in peat areas. This research was conducted in Riau Province, and the method used was qualitative. The unit of analysis in this study is the people who are considered to have knowledge about the implementation of inter-organizational networks in forest and land fire control in Riau Province. The results showed that forest and land fires that occurred in Riau Province were more common in company plantations and the rest occurred in community plantations. Implementation of inter-organizational networks in forest and land fire control in Riau province in the form of standards and objectives, resource policies, inter-organizational communication, and disposition (characteristics of implementing agencies). The recommendation from this research is to control forest and land fires in Riau Province starting from prevention and extinguishing to post-fire recovery, the local government massively socializing land clearing by burning to clear land without burning, as well as providing facilities and infrastructure for prevention, control, and repair after forest and land fires.

koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
