In ultimo, sono stati evidenziati i risultati della ricerca condotta sui casi studio delle imprese del settore. Durante lo studio dei casi particolare attenzione è stata posta alla relazione tra imprenditorialità managerializzazione e professionalizzazione delle imprese. Tale ricerca consente di far progredire gli studi in merito alle imprese del settore HCV , approfondendo le peculiarità delle imprese coinvolte nello studio a matrice familiare. Significativo anche lo sviluppo degli studi in merito alla imprenditorialità managerializzazione e professionalizzazione delle imprese del settore.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    “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

    Capitolo 2: "Caso aziendale Verdi: il ruolo e l’impatto delle donne nelle imprese familiari”

    No full text
    Il capitolo redatto ha l’obiettivo di porre in evidenza ed analizzare il ruolo ricoperto dalle donne nelle imprese familiari. In prima battuta si riporteranno sinteticamente i principali aspetti di studio emersi dalla letteratura circa il coinvolgimento femminile nelle imprese familiari, per poi passare alla disamina del case study. Su richiesta della famiglia di riferimento, il caso studio presenta nomi di fantasia e non è riconducibile all’azienda oggetto di studio

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We 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

    Human Intangible Asset Evaluation: The Master Goldsmith’s figure

    No full text
    The aim of this research is to analyze and to evaluate, the Master goldsmith’s role in the jewelry sector; a figure that has undergone a considerable change over the time. This figure can contribute to value creation and also to the success of a firm; this is the reason why we tried to attribute an economic value to the Master Goldsmith through the creation of an evaluation model. An analysis of all available evaluation methods in literature (Borgogni, 2018) shows that they were not applicable to the economic evaluation of the professional figure analyzed. For this reason, a Master Goldsmith evaluation model (Molina and Manenti, 1994) has been created with the purpose to outline the figure in terms of experiences, abilities and knowledge. Furthermore, the abovementioned evaluation form will be used for an objective evaluation, that can become a useful tool to solve the problem related to the wrong professional classification inside the company personnel, especially if matched with remuneration

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We 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

    Board gender diversity and sustainability: a literature review

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to highlight, through a systematic literature review, the impact of gender diversity on boards of directors (BoD), with regard to the concept of sustainability linked in particular to aspects such as CSR and ESG. Thus, major databases (Business Source Ultimate - EBSCO host and Scopus) were queried and 288 retrieved publications were considered. The period considered for publication is from 2010 to July 2025. The results were refined through the criterion of considering only publications from scientific journals recognised and accepted by ANVUR (National Agency for the Evaluation of the University System and Research Institutes – is an independent public Institution that evaluates, accredits and verify the quality of higher education and research in Italy. The mission is to promote excellence and continuous improvement in Italian Universities and Research Institutions) for a total of 247 articles. The results show that the presence of women on boards contributes to improved Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performances, but this effect is evidently dependent on several factors, the main one being the company type, with the impact varying between family and non-family businesses. The main impacts of the presence of women on corporate boards that emerged from the literature review are more sustainable strategies, ethics and trust, communication, innovation-driven, focus on people, corporate reputation. It emerges also that in order to generate these impacts it is necessary to reach “critical mass” of women in decision-making roles. Furthermore, the influence of women and their ability to lead change is affected not only by their specific role in the organization but also by the institutional and cultural context
