Croatia's most competitive tourist agencies
Get PDFU radu se ponajprije opisuje sam pojam turištičkih agencija, odnosno sve važnosti vezane uz njihovo poslovanje i djelovanje. Između ostalog, to se odnosi na povijesni razvoj, podjelu te funkcije turističkih agencija. Svaki se od ovih pojmova dalje razgrađuje i pobliže objašnjava. Velika važnost odnosi se na funkcije turističkih agencija koje čine glavnu komponentu njihova rada. Same funkcije opisuju zadatke koje turističke agencije slijede i ostvaruju, što ih zapravo čini uspješnima. Također, tu je i teorijski pregled povijesti turističkih agencija, odnosno vrijeme kada su one nastale, koji su bili prvi oblici te osobe koje su značajne za razvoj turističkih agencija. Kod vrsta turističkih agencija govori se na kojem području one posluju i na koji način to rade. Tada se obrađuju pojednine turističke agencije, njihovo poslovanje, i ono što je najvažnije, što privlači potrošače, a to je njihova ponuda. Potom se obrađene turističke agencije uspoređuju. Nakon što je obrađen teorijski dio, prelazi se na provedeno istraživanje. Opisno istraživanje o stavovima potrošača glede korištenja usluga turističkih agencija provedeno je na temelju ankete na uzorku od 208 ispitanika
Usporedba potencijala kongresnog turizma Hrvatske i Austrije
No full textTurizam u današnje doba podrazumijeva skup resursa kojima se potrošačima nastoji
pružiti što bolje iskustvo te da ih se svake godine iznova privuče. Turizam se dotiče
gotovo svih sfera razvoja u društvu i gospodarstvu pa tako doprinosi razvoju svake
destinacije. Na samom početku rada objasnit će se sam pojam kongresnog turizma,
njegov povijesni razvoj, opće stanje u Hrvatskoj i svijetu, trendovi koji se javljaju vezano
uz ovaj oblik turizma te će se detaljnije obraditi postojeća odabrana kongresna
infrastruktura i centri u Hrvatskoj, a nakon toga i kongresna infrastruktura i centri u
Austriji. Ova vrsta turizma prije svega potiče i razvoj ostalih oblika pa će se stoga
istražiti i obližnji smještajni objekti, zabavnih i sportskih sadržaji te gastro ponuda i
prijevoz. Usporediti će se stanje, prednosti i nedostaci u istraženim i obrađenim
kongresnim dvoranama i centrima kako bi se utvrdilo kakva je eventualna razlika. Nakon
obrađenih destinacija kao doprinos radu, koriste se metode usporedbe i intervjua.
Metoda usporedbe prikazuje koje su njihove prednosti i nedostaci te u kojim se točkama
razlikuju i gdje postoji prostor za napredak. Usporedba označava metodu kojom se
uspoređuju usporedive varijable ovih dvaju destinacija kao što su njihova SWOT analiza,
kategorije posjetitelja te broj noćenja. Također, u nastavku će biti i rezultati provedenog
intervjua koji predstavlja instrument kvalitativne metode istraživanja
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
