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
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
Letter from E. R. Fryer, Regional Director, War Relocation Authority, to Lincoln Kanai, May 18, 1942
No full textLetter from E. R. Fryer to Lincoln Kanai: "I cannot conceive of this country utilizing forced labor, even in the war effort. There may be a mobilization of man power, and the distribution of this man power in such a way that it can best serve the country, but this is quite different from any conception of forced labor. We are vitally concerned, as you are, with the problem of idle people in assembly centers and relocation centers, especially the latter. For this reason, our relocation projects are being placed in areas where productive work can immediately be done on land. By next Spring, unless we fail miserably in our objectives -- and we shall not -- all employable people should be busy at that kind of work they are best able to do, and within project areas. I sincerely hope that when you are evacuated, you will continue to keep in touch with this office. We shall welcome your continued advice and assistance."Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R. Goodman documenting the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, as well as organized resistance to incarceration. Included in the collection are records of the Japanese Young Men's Christian Association and the Japanese American Citizens' League in San Francisco, including papers of the Japanese YMCA's executive secretary Lincoln Kanai; Sakai family papers; Goodman's correspondence to and from Japanese American incarcerees, organizations opposing forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans, the War Relocation Authority, and others; publications, photographs, and ephemera from the Topaz Relocation Center, where Goodman taught high school; War Relocation Authority records and publications; and newspaper clippings, pamphlets, and reports about forced removal and incarceration created by various government, religious, and civic organizations, in California and nationwide
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Author, publisher and bookseller : a tripartite synergy in Nigerian book industry
No full textThis work is about the roles of Author, Publisher and Bookseller in Book development in
Nigeria. The paper started by delving into the history of Book Publishing in Nigeria after
which it proceeded by defining who an author, a publisher, and a bookseller is and
expatiated on the indispensable roles of these key actors in Nigerian Book Industry and in
the emerging Information Society. Furthermore, the various constraints to book
development were identified while the paper advised on how the Book Industry can be
further promoted in Nigeria. However, the paper concluded and made recommendations
on how the Book sector can help in enhancing scholarship in the country
Tamanho amostral e detecção de genes via GWAS em características quantitativas do cafeeiro.
No full textO presente documento refere-se à avaliação prática do potencial da GWAS no melhoramento dos cafeeiros das espécies Coffea arabica e Coffea canephora. O objetivo geral é orientar a aplicação eficiente da GWAS em características produtivas, agronômicas e de resistência a doenças e pragas do cafeeiro. Para isso, um novo método para o estudo de associações genômicas foi desenvolvido e avaliado via simulação, em termos de poder de detecção de genes. O objetivo específico é possibilitar a identificação de marcadores genéticos úteis ao melhoramento do cafeeiro
