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
Model of Binary Logistic Regression to Predict Mental Health in College Students
Full text linkIndonesia is entering a critical period for mental health. Research results from the The Indonesia National Adolescent Mental Health Survey (2022), around 15,5 million Indonesian teenagers experience mental health disorders. Students are part of late adolescence and are vulnerable to mental disorders. The binary logistic regression model is used to examine in more depth what variables have a significant effect. So, this research aims to predict mental health of students in the Faculty of Health Sciences, Pekalongan University. This type of research is observasional with a cross-sectinal design. Data were collected using the SRQ-20 via the Google Form platform using simple random sampling of 186 students. There were 130 students who indicated mental health disordes (69,9%). Simultaneously age, gender, major, semester level, mother’s educational level, father’s educational level, social support and dependence on using smartphone influence student’s mental health status (P Value<0,05). Even though only a few variables were partially significant, the precision percentage of the model that could be predicted correctly was 71,5%. The accuracy of the predicted model is quite good, namely student mental health status (y) = -3,720 + 2,403 (Major) – 1,980 (Mother’s Educational Level) + 1,444 (Father’s Educational Level) + 0,888 (Dependence on using Smartphone). Promotive and preventive interventions such as further screening and education to support student’s healthy mental health.
 
PENINGKATAN PENGETAHUAN HIPERTENSI MELALUI AKSI BERSAMA CEGAH HIPERTENSI (AKAMSI) DIREBAN BATANG
Full text linkHipertensi dalam beberapa dekade terakhir masih menjadi prioritas penyakit yang menyebabkan resiko kematian tertinggi dan menjadi faktor resiko utama terjadinya penyakit kardiovaskuler aterosklerotik, gagal jantung, stroke dan gagal ginjal. Prevalensi hipertensi terus mengalami peningkatan, dimana sekitar 25 % dari seluruh penduduk didunia mengalami hipertensi dan diperkirakan akan naik menjadi 29 % pada tahun 2025. Tujuan dari pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan sikap warga masyarakat desa reban terkait hipertensi dengan kegiatan AKAMSI (Aksi Bersama Cegah Hipertensi). Metode yang dipakai dalam kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah edukasi berupa penyuluhan (ceramah), diskusi dan tanya jawab dengan peserta. Penyuluhan menggunakan media berupa poster. Evaluasi hasil penyuluhan dengan cara Pre-test and Post-test Design. Evaluasi tersebut bertujuan untuk melihat apakah terdapat peningkatan skor pengetahuan peserta tentang hipertensi apabila dilakukan penyuluhan dengan media poster. Pengetahuan diukur dengan menggunakan kuesioner. Sasaran kegiatan ini adalah Wanita usia produktif Dukuh Krajan Reban Batang. Masyarakat diharapkan berperan serta aktif dalam kegiatan yang tujuannya untuk peningkatan Kesehatan dan Pemerintah diharapkan selalu melakukan pendampingan dan edukasi terhadap warga terutama usia produktif guna mencegah timbulnya penyakit degenerative sejak dini
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
