Poverty and unemployment in the Municipality of Lokve
No full textSiromaštvo i nezaposlenost predstavljaju jedan od najvećih društvenih i gospodarskih problema današnjice. Siromaštvo se može definirati kao neposjedovanje novca i novčanih sredstava, neposjedovanje dovoljno novca ili nedovoljno imovine. Nezaposlenost označava stanje u kojemu se postotak određenih radno sposobnih članova zajednice nije u mogućnosti zaposliti u skladu sa svojim kvalifikacijama, uz uvriježena primanja. Općina Lokve je mala općina sa svega 879 stanovnika i smještena je u srcu Gorskog kotara te se bori sa problemima siromaštva i nezaposlenosti uz postojeće probleme depopulacije. U radu su prikazani odgovori koji su dobiveni temeljem anketnog ispitivanja. Stanovnici Općine Lokve uglavnom si ne mogu priuštiti jedno putovanje na godišnjoj razini, zbog malih primanja i nezadovoljstva radnim mjestom spremni su preseliti se u drugu općinu ili grad
Strategy for the export of Vegeta products to the Canadian market
No full textIzvoz je ključan faktor rasta konkurentnosti poduzeća u današnjem globaliziranom svijetu. Za uspješan proces izvoza proizvoda na inozemno tržište potrebna je detaljna analiza tržišta i tržišnog potencijala samog proizvoda. Na temelju detaljnih analiza omogućuje se uvid u realno stanje na nekom tržištu te procjena mogućnosti za uspješno poslovanje na istom. U radu je analizirano i istraženo trenutačno stanje poduzeća Podravka, poslovno okruženje Kanade, SWOT analiza poduzeća Podravka te analiza konkurencije. Na temelju navedenih analiza odabirana je strategija izvoza, definirani su SMART ciljevi te su odabrane strategija segmentacije i strategija pozicioniranja. Cilj istraživanja je analizirati najuspješniju strategiju izvoza proizvoda Vegeta na tržište Kanade. Tijekom istraživanja korištene su metode deskripcije i analitike, metoda komparacije, generalizacija, specijalizacija, povijesna metoda i sinteza. Na temelju istraživanja vidljivo je da je najbolja strategija izvoza proizvoda Vegeta na tržište Kanade posredan izvoz.Export is a key factor in the growth of competitiveness of companies in today's globalized world. For a successful process of exporting a product to a foreign market, a detailed analysis of the market and the market potential of the product itself is required. On the basis of detailed analyses, it is possible to gain insight into the real situation on a certain market and to assess the possibilities for successful business on the same market. The paper analyzed and researched the current state of Podravka, the Canadian business environment, SWOT analysis of Podravka, and competition analysis. Based on the aforementioned analyses, an export strategy was selected, SMART goals were defined, and a segmentation strategy and a positioning strategy were selected. The aim of the research is to analyze the most successful strategy for exporting Vegeta products to the Canadian market. The methods of description and analysis, the method of comparison, generalization, specialization, historical method and synthesis were used during the research. Based on the research, it is evident that the best strategy for exporting Vegeta products to the Canadian market is indirect export

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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 PDFWe 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 PDFWe 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
