A Man Before His Time: Shelby Hunt's Contributions to the Domain of Franchising Research
Shelby D. Hunt is renowned for being one of the. most prolific and influential thinkers in the field of marketing. Shelby has left an indelible imprint in research domains as diverse as theory of the firm, philosophy of science, ethics in marketing, channels of distribution, and relationship marketing. In the spirit of a true renaissance thinker, for every domain that Shelby has investigated, he has delved deeply into the content, examined it incisively, and promulgated new research agenda with a truly rare prescient fervor. The foregoing review, however, concerns a research domain most cursory reviewers will not associate with Shelby, namely franchising.
Between the years 1971 through 1985, Shelby had a total of 27 publications involving the theme of franchising (including reprints). The foregoing review, however, is focused on his franchising magnum opus, Ozanne, Urban B., and Shelby D. Hunt ( 1971) (see Table 1) and on 12 representative publications of Shelby (Appendix) coded and summarized in Table 2.No Full Tex
Shelby D. Hunt: contributions to marketing science
Shelby D. Hunt, pazarlama bilimindeki öncü çalışmaları ile tanınan dünya çapında bir teorisyen ve pazarlama araştırmacısıdır. Hunt 50 yıldan fazla süredir 400’e yakın akademik çalışmayla pazarlama literatürüne önemli katkılarda bulunmuştur. Hunt’ın akademik çalışmalarının çoğu pazarlama stratejisi, rekabet, pazarlama teorisi ve pazarlama etiği ile ilgilidir. Bu çalışmalar, daha sonra alanda gerçekleştirilen akademik çalışmalar için önemli bir referans oluşturmuştur. Bu çalışma, pazarlama teorisine yaptığı katkılardan dolayı Amerikan Pazarlama Derneği (AMA) tarafından onur ödülü alan Hunt’ın pazarlama literatürüne yaptığı katkıları incelemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma çerçevesinde Hunt’ın pazarlama stratejisi ve rekabet, pazarlama teorisi ve pazarlama etiği alanlarındaki önemli çalışmaları incelenmiş ve bu çalışmalar ışığında pazarlama disiplininin farklı alanlarına yaptığı katkılar açıklanmıştır.Shelby D. Hunt is a worldwide theorist and marketing researcher known for his pioneering work in marketing science. Hunt has made significant contributions to marketing literature with nearly 400 academic studies for more than 50 years. Most of Hunt's academic works deal with marketing strategy, competition, theory, and ethics. These studies had been an important reference for the academic studies carried out afterwards. This study was carried out to examine Hunt's contributions to marketing literature, who received an honor award from the American Marketing Association (AMA) for his contributions to marketing theory. Within the framework of the study, Hunt's important studies in marketing strategy and competition, marketing theory and marketing ethics were examined and in the light of his studies, his contributions to different areas of the marketing discipline were explained.Publisher's Versio
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
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
Andrew D. Hunt Jr.
Andrew D. Hunt Jr.\u2019s MSU career began in 1964 when he was appointed dean of the newly founded College of Human Medicine. He held that post until 1977 and remained on the faculty there until 1984. While at MSU, Hunt was instrumental in establishing the Office of Medical Education, Research and Development (OMERAD), which remains the most prestigious office of medical education in the United States. He also founded the Center for Ethics and Humanities in the Life Sciences. A pioneer in the area of medical education, Hunt believed that doctors should treat the patient, not the disease, and from this simple and humane premise he began to develop a curriculum that combined the rigor of the biomedical sciences with behavioral and humanistic components. Under Hunt\u2019s leadership, the College of Human Medicine quickly became renowned for its innovative approaches to medical education. Hunt was born on October 1, 1915 in New York. He graduated from Haverford College and earned his medical degree from Cornell. Upon completion of his internship, he entered the United States Army Medical Corp where he served in the European theater. He spent several years working as a medical doctor in hospitals and medical centers and served on the faculty at Stanford prior to coming to MSU. Hunt passed away in 2005

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
