Public-type MFOs as an element of financial system
No full textThe subject of the research is to define the structure of microfinance organizations (MFOs) with the Russian Region’s authorities within the founders (participants, shareholders). The aim of the paper is to define the role of the public-type MFOs, including the problems of their accounting, identification and supervision as an independent element of the MFOs market. The relevance of the research is due to the lack of list of public-type MFOs, the need of State Entrepreneurship Financial Support Policy control and measurement in the context of the new coronavirus infection and sanctions. The scientific novelty emerges, as there is no research about the public-type MFOs as the solid part of the Russian MFO market. The author develops an algorithm to identify public-type MFOs, analyzes the composition of this segment compared to the MFO Market structure in general. The author uses methods of statistical and content analysis, public data bases (the State Register of Legal Entities, registers of MFOs by the Bank of Russia, the Register of Infrastructure for SME Support). The results are the list of public-type MFOs, determination of the composition of this segment compared to the MFOs system as a whole. The author concludes that public-type MFOs have greater non-commercial orientation of this segment, its geographical distribution and its compositional unity in terms of organizational and legal forms and forms of ownership. The author recommends: to identify the RSMB Corporation in charge of the List of the public-type MFOs, to involve MFOs, created by the local authorities, into the SME Support activities, and public-type MFOs — into the preferential bank-loans Programs
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
Государственные микрофинансовые организации как элемент финансовой системы

Цель работы — определение роли и места государственных МФО, в том числе проблем их учета, идентификации и надзора в качестве самостоятельного элемента рынка МФО. Актуальность исследования обусловлена отсутствием в публичной сфере перечня государственных МФО, необходимостью контроля и оценки эффективности мер государственной финансовой поддержки предпринимательства в условиях ограничений, связанных с распространением новой коронавирусной инфекции и санкций. Научная новизна обусловлена отсутствием исследований и анализа структуры сегмента государственных микрофинансовых организаций как части российского рынка МФО. В работе предложен алгоритм и проведена идентификация государственных микрофинансовых организаций, проанализирована их структура и соотношение с рынком МФО в целом. Автор использует методы статистического и контент-анализа, работы с государственными базами данных [в частности, ЕГРЮЛ, реестрами МФО, ведение которых осуществляет ЦБ РФ, Единым реестром инфраструктуры поддержки субъектов малого и среднего предпринимательства (МСП)]. В результате автор сформировал перечень МФО, относимых к государственным МФО, определил структуру сегмента государственных МФО в сравнении с МФО в целом и сделал вывод о его самостоятельности внутри системы МФО за счет большей некоммерческой ориентации данного сегмента, равномерности его географического распределения и его композиционном единстве в разрезе организационно-правовых форм и форм собственности. Автор рекомендует определить уполномоченный орган в лице Корпорации МСП для формирования публичного перечня государственных МФО, вести проактивную работу с органами исполнительной власти субъектов РФ в части вовлечения созданных ими МФО в программы поддержки предпринимательства и вовлекать государственные МФО в программы льготного кредитования бизнеса, реализуемые через банки
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
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
