La protection juridique des majeurs : étude comparative entre les droits français, égyptien et koweïtien
No full textThe law of protected persons is presented today in France, as a topical subject of current events by occupying a considerable space in the round tables of French lecturers, researchers and jurists. The subject of protected person law has always been a hot topic in Kuwait. The peculiarity of the legislative system of this country, declaring in its constitution as a Muslim country whose Islamic law is one of the main sources of its legislation, comes from the combination, often problematic, between the latter and the two other major sources that are 'Common Law' and Germanic civil / Roman law. The evolution of Kuwaiti laws in force is an omnipresent necessity which is imposed every time the legislator faces the evolution of society. Among the Gulf countries, Kuwait was one of the first has always expressed its desire to follow social and economic developments on an international scale, drawing inspiration from the Western example of which France constitutes one of the most interesting figures. , especially at the legislative level.The title of such work could be 'Legal protection of adults.' This thesis aims to compare French, Egyptian and Kuwaiti laws. Especially since the three rights do not provide the same guarantees, despite their claim to guarantee this protection.With regard to French law, with its multiple sources: internal, community and international law, it has established a solid and rich system, endowed with real means and a series of public and private institutions ensuring legal protection adults. However, the system is far from perfect. Efforts are still being made at all levels to fill the remaining gaps. Kuwaiti law and Egyptian law, for their part, have fairly recent systems, the sources of which come mainly from Muslim law, the civil code and international conventions.It will be interesting to compare how the Kuwaiti, Egyptian and French systems provide and guarantee legal protection for adults. What guarantees are provided by the three legislators ? What are the problems experienced by the three societies despite the particularity of each, in particular the Kuwaiti whose two thirds of the population are foreigners ?Le droit des personnes protégées se présente, aujourd’hui, en France, comme un sujet d’actualité de premier rang en occupant un espace considérable dans les tables rondes des conférenciers, chercheurs et juristes français. Le sujet du droit des personnes protégées a toujours été un sujet d’actualité au Koweït. La particularité du système législatif de ce pays, se déclarant dans sa constitution comme étant un pays musulman dont la loi islamique est une des sources principales de sa législation, provient de la combinaison, souvent problématique, entre cette dernière et les deux autres sources majeures que sont la « Common Law » et le droit civil/roman germanique.

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
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
