    Consanguinity trends and correlates in the Palestinian Territories

    No full text
    Secondary analysis of the trends and correlates of consanguinity in the Palestinian Territories was conducted using data from two separate surveys in 1995 and 2004. The analysis was conducted on ever-married women aged 15-54 who were asked about their relation to their husband in both surveys. A total of 16,197 women in 1995 and 4971 women in 2004 were successfully interviewed. Consanguinity was found to be widely practised in the Palestinian Territories with rates of total consanguinity reaching 45percent of all marriages in 2004. Analysis was conducted with the data from the two surveys combined and this indicated that consanguinity was significantly decreasing with time after controlling for other variables. Age of the women, their age at marriage, region and locality type they lived in and their standard of living were all found to be significant predictors of consanguinity. The education level of the women was not found to be significant. After controlling for the survey year, women's labour force status was also found to be a non-significant predictor of consanguinity. Although consanguinity was found to be significantly decreasing slowly with time after controlling for other variables, the future trends of consanguinity are not known due to the unstable political situation in the territories, which could have a direct effect on marriage patterns. © Cambridge University Press 2008.Abu-Rabia S, 2005, DYSLEXIA, V11, P1, DOI 10.1002-dys.271; ADULRAZZAQ Y, 1997, CLIN GENET, V51, P167; Ajluni S, 2003, J PALESTINE STUD, V32, P64, DOI 10.1525-jps.2003.32.3.64; AlGazali LI, 1997, J BIOSOC SCI, V29, P491, DOI 10.1017-S0021932097004914; Banerjee Sushanta K., 2002, ASIA PACIFIC POPULAT, V17, P17; Barth F, 1954, SOUTHWEST J ANTHROP, V10, P164; Bener A, 2006, J BIOSOC SCI, V38, P239; Bener A, 2006, PAEDIATR PERINAT EP, V20, P372, DOI 10.1111-j.1365-3016.2006.00750.x; BITTLES A, 1990, 90186 U MICH; BITTLES A, 2006, GLOBAL PREVALENCE CO; BITTLES AH, 1991, SCIENCE, V252, P789, DOI 10.1126-science.2028254; BITTLES AH, 1994, POPUL DEV REV, V20, P561, DOI 10.2307-2137601; Courbage Y, 1995, Popul, V7, P210; Dominique Tabutin, 2005, POPULATION E, V60, P505, DOI 10.2307-4148186; Filmer D, 2001, DEMOGRAPHY, V38, P115, DOI 10.2307-3088292; Filmer D, 1999, POPUL DEV REV, V25, P85, DOI 10.1111-j.1728-4457.1999.00085.x; GIVENS BP, 1994, J MARRIAGE FAM, V56, P820, DOI 10.2307-353595; GRANGVIST H, 1931, MARRIAGE CONDITIONS; HAMAMY HA, 1989, HUM HERED, V39, P271, DOI 10.1159-000153871; HEIBERG M, 1994, PALESTINIAN SOC GRAZ; Hussain R, 1998, ANN HUM GENET, V62, P147, DOI 10.1046-j.1469-1809.1998.6220147.x; Hussain R, 2004, J HEALTH POPUL NUTR, V22, P1; Hussain R, 1998, PAEDIATR PERINAT EP, V12, P370; Jurdi R, 2003, J BIOSOC SCI, V35, P1, DOI 10.1017-S0021932003000014; Khawaja Marwan, 2006, Genus, V62, P21; Khawaja M, 2000, POP STUD-J DEMOG, V54, P331, DOI 10.1080-713779091; KHLAT M, 1988, AM J HUM GENET, V43, P188; Khlat Myriam, 1986, SOC BIOL, V33, P138; KHOURY S, 1992, AM J MED GENET, V43, P768; *MDM, 2005, ULT BARR IMP WALL PA; Mokhtar MM, 2001, EUR J EPIDEMIOL, V17, P559, DOI 10.1023-A:1014567800950; Mumtaz G, 2007, AM J EPIDEMIOL, V165, P742, DOI 10.1093-aje-kwk108; *NAD, 2005, DESTR 2 STAT SOL; NATH A, 2004, INDIAN J COMMUNITY M, V14; *OCHA, 2006, ACC PROT OCHA HUM UP; *PAPCHILD, 1992, MAUR MAT CHILD HLTH; *PAPCHILD, 1995, SUD MAT CHILD HLTH S; *PAPFAM, 2004, LEB FAM HLTH SURV PR; *PCBS, 1997, SUMM FIN RES POP HOU; *PCBS, 2006, DEM SOC STAT PAL PEO; *PCBS, 2006, PAL FIG 2005; *PCBS, 2004, DEM HLTH SURV; *PCBS, 1996, DEM SURV FIN RES; *PCBS, 2006, OCC INT CHILD DAY 20; Pedersen J, 2000, J BIOSOC SCI, V32, P527, DOI 10.1017-S0021932000005277; *PMG, 2005, TREND AN ISR CONT WA; *PMG, 2005, TREND AN ED OCC; Rashad H., 2005, MARRIAGE ARAB WORLD; Raz AE, 2004, J FAM PLAN REPROD H, V30, P49, DOI 10.1783-147118904322701992; Shah GH, 1998, POPUL RES POLICY REV, V17, P275, DOI 10.1023-A:1005922704585; Statacorp, 2003, STAT STAT SOFTW REL; Stoltenberg C, 1999, AM J PUBLIC HEALTH, V89, P517, DOI 10.2105-AJPH.89.4.517; Tfaily R., 2005, 25 INT POP C INT UN; TUNCBILEK E, 1994, ANN HUM GENET, V58, P321, DOI 10.1111-j.1469-1809.1994.tb00729.x; Verma I C, 1992, Indian Pediatr, V29, P685; WAHAB A, 2005, J SOCIAL SCI, V10, P153; World Bank, 2004, 4 YEARS INT CLOS PAL; Yassin KM, 2000, PUBLIC HEALTH, V114, P269, DOI 10.1016-S0033-3506(00)00343-717191

    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    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

    Get PDF
    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

    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
