Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
No full text“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
No full textWe 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
No full textWe 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
Informe Jurídico sobre la Casación No. 13969-2019-LIMA SUR
No full textMediante el presente informe se realizó un análisis de la Casación No. 13969-
2019-LIMA SUR, mediante el cual el voto en mayoría de la Corte Suprema validó
el despido de Guillermo Joyo Galván. Según el criterio del colegiado superior
estaba acreditado que se encontró al extrabajador dormido dentro del camión
mixer asignado a él. En este informe se examinó si es que la sentencia es
compatible con los principios y fundamentos del Derecho del Trabajo.
Para el desarrollo del análisis se ha utilizado principalmente los siguientes
instrumentos normativos: la Constitución Política del Perú, el Texto Único
Ordenado del Decreto Legislativo No. 728, Ley de Productividad y
Competitividad Laboral, así como la Nueva Ley Procesal del Trabajo.
En la conclusión se sostiene que la decisión del voto en mayoría en la Casación
no es compatible con los principios y fundamentos del Derecho del Trabajo
porque no se comprobó el incumplimiento de obligaciones suficiente para
quebrantar la buena fe laboral. Además, pese a haber adoptado la posición de
la Empresa, la Corte Suprema no realizó un análisis de razonabilidad y
proporcionalidad en la sanción aplicada. Finalmente, tampoco se comprobó que
la empresa demandada hubiera acreditado la causa justa del despido.This legal report presents an analysis of Supreme Court Cassation No. 13969-
2019-LIMA SUR, through which the majority opinion of the Supreme Court upheld
the dismissal of Mr. Guillermo Joyo Galván. According to the reasoning of the
higher court, it was deemed proven that the former employee had been found
asleep inside the concrete mixer truck assigned to him. This report examines
whether the ruling is consistent with the ruling is consistent with the principles
and foundational doctrines of Labor Law.
The analysis is based primarily on the following legal instruments: Political
Constitution of Peru, Consolidated Text of Legislative Decree No. 728, Law on
Productivity and Labor Competitiveness, and the New Laboral Procedural Law.
This report concludes that the majority opinion in the Cassation decision is not
compatible with the principles and foundations of Labor Law, as there was no
sufficient proof of breach of obligations capable of undermining the duty of good
faith in the employment relationship. Moreover, even after adopting the
employer’s position, the Supreme Court failed to conduct an analysis of
reasonableness and proportionality regarding the sanction imposed. Finally, it
was not established that the employer had duly proven just cause for dismissal
in accordance with the legal standards required
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
