    Working with the SOURCE Explore program I was able to work with the Rodney Gilbert and Chen Chi Papers. Both of which are different in nature but aim to contrast the Asian American Experience of those already in America versus those who are from mainland China aiming to pursue higher education in the United States. By studying respected artwork from Chen Chi and analyzing the recommendation letters from Rodney Gilbert I was able to see how Americans viewed foreigners during the periods 1940-1960. I was also able to understand the history of the world at this time and it has prepared me for research in the future

    [[abstract]]National Taiwan Normal University Graduate Institute of Political Science Title of Thesis: The Study on the Legislative Privileges for Legislator—Case Studies of the Privileges of the Speech and the Freedom from Arrest Student: Hsy-Liang Lin Advisor: Prof. Chun-Chen Chi Abstract: The privilege of speech or debate and the privilege of freedom from arrest are the design of ensuring legislative who represent the opinions of nationals to accomplish the task that the Constitution endows everyone with. The two privileges both protect the freedom of discussion and voting in Congress, restrain the components of Congress from being illegally interfered and maintain the personal freedom of legislative. Above all, they prevent other governmental power or the third person from using inappropriate means to hinder or violate the operation of the Congress. The Congress is a stage where the opinions of nationals are assembled and expressed. In order to make political opinions become effective regulations, legislative must employ their power based on their conscience and freedom. Through such constant efforts, the representative system can earn people’s complete trust. Therefore, the Congress should be able to comprehensively start its sessions at anytime and the discussion and voting will not be interfered with any external power. The privilege of speech or debate and the privilege of freedom from arrest are parts of the tradition of the Congress law during the time of the constitutional monarchy. Even though the opposite or hostile conditions between monarchy and the Congress do not exist in today’s democratic constitutional government, the two privileges are still retained in most countries. The purpose of this research is aimed to explore the protection and restrictions of the design of the two privileges on lawmakers; meanwhile, using Congress self-discipline system to examine the Congress behaviors is also investigated. Furthermore, this study focuses on the strengths and weaknesses of the design of the two rights and provides suggestions as a reference for future operation of the Congress. 【Keywords】privilege of speech or debate, privilege of freedom from arrest, congress, constitution, congress self-discipline

    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
