Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
PENGARUH RASIO CAR, RASIO NPL DAN RASIO ROA DALAM MEMPREDIKSI KONDISI FINANCIAL DISTRESS PERUSAHAAN PERBANKAN YANG TERDAFTAR DI BURSA EFEK INDONESIA
Get PDFThe purpose of this study was to identify the influence of CAR, NPL, ROA to prediction financial distress of banks, using logit model. The condition of financial distress happens before bancruptcy. The sample used in this research are bank companies that listed in Indonesian Stock Exchange (ISE) in 2010-20,. which using purposive sampling approach to selected sample. Hypotheses were tested using logistic regression. The results showed that the influence of independent variable to financial distress prediction is 72% while the rest can be explained by other variables. NPL and ROA are significant influence to prediction financial distress of bank that listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange (ISE).

FAKTOR-FAKTOR MAKRO EKONOMI DALAM MEMPREDIKSI KONDISI FINANCIAL DISTRESS
Get PDFThe purpose of this study was to determine how the macro-economic factors affect the prediction of financial distress companies. Financial distress is a condition in which the financial enterprise in unhealthy conditions or crises. Financial distress that can not be resolved then it is possible the company went bankrupt. company's financial distress caused not only by internal factors, but external factors relating to macro-economic conditions will also affect the company's financial distress. Inflation rate, BI rate and money supply are some macro-economic factors that would be expected to affect the prediction of financial distress, particularly the banking companies.

TINJAUAN EARNING RATIO PADA BANK PERKREDITAN RAKYAT (BPR) YANG ADA DIKOTA PADANG
Get PDFThe study aims to find out and measure the Earning Ratio of Rural Banks that were in the city of Padang during 2014-2016. ROA as one of the indicators used to measure earnings from a bank. Data was obtained from six Rural Banks in the city of Padang. The result were that during 2014 until 2016 the highest ROA ratio was 2.75% while the lowest was -3.73% (in 2016). The ROA ratio of the six Rural Banks in the city of Padang shows that only the Third Rural Bank shows the Healthy criteria for two consecutive years (2016, 2015). Whereas the First Rural Bank was only in 2016 included in the criteria of Healthy. The criteria for Healthy Enough is only one year successfully achieved by the Second Rural Bank, Fifth Rural Bank and Sixth Rural Bank. Whereas the Fourth Rural Bank for three consecutive years is unhealthy. This means that the Rural Bank has not been efficient in managing its assets to generate profits during 2014-2016
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
