ISBN 978-9975-155-87-8 (PDF).Fenomene globale din ultimul timp, precum transformarea digitală au avut un impact deosebit de puternic asupra piețelor bursiere deoarece au facilitat accesul părților interesate la aceste piețe. În prezent orice parte interesată poate să participe activ și să investească pe aceste piețe, obstacolele din trecut ca de exemplu plafoane foarte mari de intrare pe piață sau lipsa de informații și de instrumente fiind de domeniul trecutului datorită acestor schimbări. Ținând cont de aceste aspecte dar și de interesul sporit al noilor părți interesate de a investi, am realizat o mică analiză a legăturii dintre comportamentul investitorilor de pe piețele bursiere și dimensiunile culturale, în special a evitării incertitudinii și individualismului, așa cum au fost descrise acestea de către Geert Hofstede. Rezultatele acestei lucrări demonstrează că dimensiunile culturale au o influență semnificativă asupra deciziilor investitorilor. De asemenea, aceste rezultate pot constitui baza de plecare pentru alte viitoare studii viitoare, explorând dinamica mai multor regiuni și/sau analizând alte dimensiuni culturale.

ISBN 978-9975-155-92-2 (PDF).Cryptocurrency is a digital currency, that does not fall under government or banks control, and has seen massive attention in the last couple of years from academic and non-academic researchers, promising to be an alternative currency to the traditional one. Futhermore, the adoption and acceptance level of cryptocurrency has increased and can be recognized by indicators such as market capitalization, which reached its peak in 2021 at 3 trillion dollars, and by the sheer number of people that bought cryptocurrency, over 80 million in 2022. However, limited attention has been given to users perception of cryptocurrency and the important factors that influenced them to become active on the crypto market itself. Thus, the aim of this study is to explore the main factors driving the decision of using cryptocurrency by analyzing the scientific literature. The results showed that some of the main factors that are driving the use and adoption of cryptocurreny are: investment opportunity, anonymity of the transaction, privacy, the global acceptance by many business as a payment tool, fast transfer of funds, low cost of transactions, and curiosity. This research helps regulators and cryptocurrency developers to better understand the motives behind cryptocurrency drive. CZU: 336.748.3:004.056.55; JEL: M40, M41; DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.705988
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
TEMATICI EMERGENTE DESPRINSE DIN CADRUL ECOSISTEMULUI ECONOMICO-SOCIAL INFLUENȚAT DE TEHNOLOGIA BLOCKCHAIN
No full textAbstract
Blockchain technology has surpassed its original condition in which it was associated with bitcoin or cryptocurrencies, reaching a new phase, in which it is perceived as a disruptive and revolutionary technology that will impact many aspects of our lives. This perception is largely due to conjecture concerning the future of this technology, it being at the moment in an incipient stage. Thus, due to the massive amount of conjucture regarding blockchain’s future, this paper aims to analyze the scientific literature on blockchain social and economic impact. The methodological tool used is SWOT analysis, which helps identify internal factors (strengths and weaknesses) and external factors (opportunities and threats), summarizing the arguments within the scientific literature. The results revealed the following aspects as strengths of this technology: reduced verification costs, confidentiality, the use of tokens and smart contracts. As weakness we identified the last hundred mile problem. Opportunities identified are related to: global warming and immigrant movements and access to statistical data. The main threats found are: regulations of technology that can inhibit the development process, lack of education and distrust of public. These factors can be considered emerging themes of blockchain technology, due to their involvement in the development of technology and their impact in the future on the economic and social environment. We consider these results relevant in understanding the direction and importance of blockchain technology
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
