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
Нотаріат в Україні: становалення та запровадження цифрових технологій
The study analyzes the historical aspect of the formation of the notary in Ukraine. The scientific analysis of notary development, definition of notary system, determination of a place of the modern notary in the legal system is carried out. The introduction of European experience in the notary of Ukraine provides an opportunity to exchange practical skills, improve national legislation and unify Ukrainian documents in accordance with international standards. The legislative consolidation of "notary in Ukraine" is analyzed. It is the Law of Ukraine “On Notaries” that discloses the concept of notary as a system of bodies and officials who are obliged to certify rights, as well as facts of legal significance and perform other notarial acts, provided by law, in order to give them legal credibility. The main tasks of the notary are defined, namely ensuring the protection and defense of the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of individuals and collective entities, as well as promoting the proper implementation of the rights and responsibilities of these entities, ensuring the protection and safeguarding of all property forms, crime prevention, general strengthening of the rule of law and maintenance of the proper level of law and order. The functions of the notary are outlined, which are constantly evolving and give notaries more powers when performing notarial acts. The types of legal systems of notaries are studied, and the place of Ukrainian notaries in the system is determined. A special place in the notary system of Ukraine is the introduction of digital technologies, namely electronic registers, which allow to speed up the performance of notarial acts. It is concluded, that the notary in Ukraine is constantly in the dynamics of development and improvement of both the system itself and notaries in general. The international experience of leading countries allows for constant exchange of skills and improvement of national legislationПри исследовании проанализированы исторический аспект становления нотариата в Украине. Проведен научный анализ развития нотариата, определение системы нотариата, определения современного нотариата в правовой системе. Введение в нотариате Украины европейского опыта дает возможность обмена практическими навыками, совершенствование национально законодательства и унификации украинских документов в соответствии с международными стандартами. Проанализированы законодательное закрепление «нотариата в Украине». Именно Закон Украины «О нотариате» раскрывает понятие нотариата как систему органов и должностных лиц, которые возложена обязанность удостоверять права, а также факты, имеющие юридическое значение, и совершать другие нотариальные действия, предусмотренные Законом6 с целью предоставления им юридической достоверности. Определены основные задачи нотариата, а именно обеспечение охраны и защиты прав, свобод и законных интересов физических лиц и коллективных субъектов, а также содействие нормальной реализации принадлежащих этим субъектам прав и возложенных на них обязанностей, обеспечения защиты и охраны всех форм собственности, предупреждения правонарушений, общее укрепление законности и поддержание надлежащего уровня правопорядка. Определены функции нотариата, которые постоянно развиваются и дают возможность нотариусам больше полномочий при совершении нотариальных действий. Исследована типы правовых систем нотариата, и определено место украинского нотариата в системе. Особое место в системе нотариата Украины является внедрение цифровых технологий, а именно электронных реестров, которые позволяют ускорить совершение нотариальных действий. Сделан вывод, что нотариат в Украине постоянно находится в динамике развития и совершенствования как самой системы, так и нотариусов в целом. Международный опыт ведущих стран позволяет постоянно обмениваться навыками и совершенствовать национальное законодательствоПри дослідженні проаналізовано історичний аспект становлення нотаріату в Україні. Проведено науковий аналіз розвитку нотаріату, визначення системи нотаріату, визначення місця сучасного нотаріату в правовій системі. Запровадження в нотаріат України європейського досвіду дає можливість обміну практичними навиками, удосконалення національно законодавства та уніфікації українських документів згідно з міжнародними стандартами. Проаналізовано законодавче закріплення «нотаріату в Україні». Саме Закон України «Про нотаріат» розкриває поняття нотаріату як систему органів і посадових осіб, на які покладено обов’язок посвідчувати права, а також факти, що мають юридичне значення, та вчиняти інші нотаріальні дії, передбачені Законом, з метою надання їм юридичної вірогідності. Визначено основні задачі нотаріату, а саме забезпечення охорони та захисту прав, свобод і законних інтересів фізичних осіб та колективних суб’єктів, а також сприяння нормальній реалізації належних цим суб’єктам прав та покладених на них обов’язків, забезпечення захисту та охорони усіх форм власності, попередження правопорушень, загальне зміцнення законності та підтримка належного рівня правопорядку. Окреслено функції нотаріату, які постійно розвиваються та дають можливість нотаріусам більше повноважень при вчиненні нотаріальних дій. Досліджено типи правових систем нотаріату, та визначено місце українського нотаріату в системі. Особливе місце в системі нотаріату України є запровадження цифрових технологій, а саме електронних реєстрів, які дають змогу пришвидшити вчинення нотаріальних дій. Зроблений висновок, що нотаріат в Україні постійно перебуває в динаміці розвитку та удосконалення як самої системи, так і нотаріусів загалом. Міжнародний досвід провідних країн дає змогу постійно обмінюватися навиками та вдосконалювати національне законодавств
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
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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
