An Empirical Analysis of Socio-Economic Status in Taiwan
No full text傳統上，經濟學上大多使用所得分配，來做為觀察社會經濟結構的指標。然而觀察一個社會的結構，除了從經濟面(如所得)來觀察外，也可從政治或文化的角度來觀察。在本研究中，試著從台灣就業者的社經地位角度出發，來探討台灣的社會結構。
在此我們選用了幾組資料庫， 1.「職類別薪資調查」, 2.「人力資源調查」及3.「台灣社會變遷調查」來做為研究的資料來源，
而後將這三組資料庫進行整合後，再搭配上由Ganzeboom等人所建構的「國際職業社經地位指標」(International Socio-Economic Index of Occupational Status, ISEI)做為研究工具，分析台灣就業者之社經地位分布。
透過上述的資料與工具，研究發現，目前台灣就業者之社經地位分布呈現出近似「西洋梨」之結構，這是一種處於「橄欖型」與「金字塔型」間的過渡結構，這樣的結果也說明了，台灣目前乃處於從開發中國家邁向已開發國家之林的階段。
本文也使用了ISSP(International Social Survey Programme)所提供之資料建構美國、瑞典、韓國以及菲律賓四國的ISEI分布，以及李強於2005年對中國就業者所做的研究，藉此將台灣之現況與國際上不同發展程度之國家做一個比較。Traditionally, most of economic empirical studies take income as the key variable to investigate the structure of the economy.Besides the distribution of income, one can also study the economic structure from the view points, for example,politics or culture.In this research, we have studied the Taiwan social-economic structure from the viewpoint of occupational status.
Three data sets are used in this research.1.Builetin of Occupation Wage Survey, 2.Manpower Survey, 3.Taiwan Social Change Survey.We have intergrated these three data sets. The ISEI(International Socio-Economic Index of Occupational Status) is constructed by Ganzeboom, H.B.G., De Graaf, P.M., and Treiman, D.J.(1996) is applied to Taiwan`s data to
analyzes the socio-economic status of employment in Taiwan.
We found that the distribution of socio-economic status in Taiwan is similar to the shape of a ``pear" shape which is, in our view, a transitional structure between ``spindle shape"and``pyramid shape".This result explains that Taiwan is in a transitional stage from a developing country into a developed country.
In this paper, we have also used the data of ISSP(International Social Survey Programme) to compose ISEI for U.S.A., Sweden, South Korea and Philippines, and also the study of worker in China by Qiang Li(2005) to make a comparison of Taiwan with developed and developing countries in the world
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn 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.
