    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    La puerta de entrada al capital extranjero en el sector minero argentino: Análisis del debate de la ley de Inversiones Mineras (1993)

    La problemática vinculada con la regulación minera y el establecimiento de parámetros básicos para el desempeño de este sector extractivo esencial para un plan de desarrollo económico y social de largo plazo, constituye uno de los puntos de debate más críticos de la actual etapa. Este nuevo escenario de interpelación política, social e institucional deviene de una predisposición renovada de distintos actores de la arena pública argentina de encarar la compleja tarea de fijar, de manera democrática, un perfil productivo con eje en el tratamiento de recursos naturales básicos no renovables, la protección del medio ambiente, la preservación de derechos de las comunidades circundantes a los emprendimientos o afectadas directa o indirectamente por ellos, y un rumbo productivo para el país.Fil: Christel, Lucas Gabriel.

    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

    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

    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

    Satisfacción de la imagen corporal y presencia de trastorno por atracón alimentario en estudiantes de primer año de la Licenciatura de Enfermería de la Universidad Nacional de Rosario, 2020

    Full text link
    Los trastornos de conducta alimentaria son patologías de origen multifactorial, que plantean sintomatología mental y somática imponiendo una importante pérdida de calidad de vida de los afectados, tanto hombre como mujeres, y su entorno. Incluyen conductas de riesgo en relación directa a la insatisfacción de la percepción de la imagen corporal. Resultando un problema de salud pública, de manera que han adquirido gran relevancia socio- sanitaria debido a su gravedad, complejidad y dificultad para establecer un diagnóstico y tratamiento específico. El objetivo general que se plantea en el siguiente proyecto será identificar la relación existente entre la satisfacción de la imagen corporal y la presencia de trastorno por atracón alimentario en estudiantes del primer año de la Licenciatura de Enfermería de la Universidad Nacional de Rosario durante los meses de abril, mayo y junio de 2020. Se tratará de una investigación con abordaje cuantitativo, de diseño descriptivo, transversal prospectivo. Se obtendrán datos mediante la aplicación de instrumentos validados en una muestra de 278 estudiantes del primer año de la Licenciatura de Enfermería, por un lado el Cuestionario de la Figura Corporal (BSQ) para medir la satisfacción de imagen corporal y por otro, el Eating Attitudes Test (EAT 40) para valorar actitudes frente a trastornos de conducta alimentaria. Dichos datos serán presentados en histogramas y gráficos de barras simples utilizando estadísticas descriptivas.Fil: Alvarez, Laura Soledad. Universidad Nacional de Rosario.

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We 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
