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
The influence of work attitude and work environment on the performance of North Sumatra Province Education Service employes / Ari Syahputra and Yusrita
No full textOne of the endeavours to further develop representative execution is by focusing on work perspectives and a representative workplace. The motivation behind this study was to determine the impact of work attitude on representative execution and the impact of workplaces on representative execution, as well as the impact of work disposition and workplaces on worker execution at the North Sumatra Common Training Office. This study utilizes quantitative information types by appropriating surveys of 59 workers of the North Sumatra Common Training Office out of 143 representatives determined using the Slovin equation. The information investigation procedures utilized are information quality tests with legitimacy and dependability tests, different direct relapse examinations, old-style supposition tests with ordinariness, heteroscedasticity and multicolonity tests and speculation testing with t tests, F tests and assurance tests. From the consequences of the review, it tends to be reasoned that work mentality significantly affects representative execution. The workplace significantly affects worker execution. Work attitude and workplace fundamentally affect representative execution at the North Sumatra Common Instruction Office

ANDI YUSRITA. 2018. Coping Strategy of Pedicab Drivers in PerintisKemerdekaan III Street in Makassar City (Supervised by Jumadi and Najamuddin).
The study aims at examining the dynamics of socio-economic of pedicab drivers and the survival strategy of pedicab drivers.The data obtained in this study were analyzed using qualitative description analysis through three stages, namely data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing.Data collection techniques used were observation, interviews, and documentation.
The results of the study reveal that (1) the dynamics of socio-economic of pedicab drivers, it is described that the family needs have not sufficiently fulfilled because the husband’s income as the pedicab drivers has yet to fulfill the daily needs. The needs in this case is food, clothing, shelter as well as education and healthcare, (2) there are several strategies conducted by them in fulfilling their needs, namely using active strategy which covered doing side-job, involving family members to obtain income; passive strategy by saving several posts such as getting cheaper food, buying food when the price is lower, and saving small income for major needs; and network strategy in a form of borrowing neighbor money or family. Besides that, the pedicab drivers also get aids from government in a form of health insurance shown in KIS card given for free.
