Emily Graham Interview
No full textEmily Graham (Class of 2007) was interviewed by Camille Davis via the Zoom internet-based video conferencing software on December 12, 2022. Ms. Graham was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, but grew up in the Dallas area, living in Oak Cliff and Duncanville, and then after third grade in Cedar Hills, where she completed high school. To help combat her extreme shyness, she studied dance from an early age, which she credits with building her confidence. After visiting SMU in high school, she became enthralled with attending the university, where she enrolled and received a Bachelor's Degree in corporate communications and public affairs with a minor in ethics. She said she did not experience racism from white students, but did notice cliques and some colorism within the Black student community. She was very active on campus, including as a member of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, and ultimately received SMU's M award for service. She worked as an RA at several dorms, held a variety of campus jobs, and participated in multiple internships, including at Southwest Airlines, the Richards Group, and Burson-Marsteller. She fell in love with financial communications and began a long career in the field, working at companies like Burson-Marsteller. After moving to New York City, she noticed a great deal of racism and otherness in the corporate world, which over time led to a career shift into more actively pursuing inclusivity and equity. At the time of the interview, she was working as the Chief Equity and Impact Officer at Omnicom Group. Also at the time of the interview, she was serving as the Meadows School of the Arts 2050 Council, a young alumni group, as well as the as liaison on the executive board for Meadows School of the Arts. She had recently received the Emerging Leader Distinguished Alumni Award for SMU and has spoken at SMU's commencement

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
Evaluation Of Tele-Diagnostic Practice In Autism Spectrum Disorder
No full textEVALUATION OF TELE-DIAGNOSTIC PRACTICES IN AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER By Emily Graham LeRose Advisor: Dr. Shelly Jo Kraft, PhD, CCC-SLP Major: Communication Sciences and Disorders Degree: Doctor of Philosophy
Following the social-distancing mandates of the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder pivoted from an in-person method of evaluation, utilizing empirically supported “gold-standard” methods, to novel tele-diagnostic methods. This research investigated the efficacy and accessibility of autism diagnostic services using the tele-diagnostic platform of autism assessment by comparing retrospective patient data from periods of in-person assessment to tele-diagnostic assessment at one, large, urban hospital.
Diagnostic outcomes for these two approaches of ASD evaluation, including the rate at which the ASD diagnosis was given, presence of co-morbid diagnoses, and alternate diagnoses was explored with quantitative analytic methods. Measures of patient accessibility to autism evaluation were also analyzed by comparing population demographics (i.e., age, socioeconomic status, geographic area, race, language preference, etc.) across the two groups.
Outcomes from the analyses yielded positive support for the option of tele-diagnostic autism evaluation. Autism diagnoses increased significantly, particularly for younger children in the tele-diagnostic group. A greater volume of children were evaluated, at younger ages, and some barriers to access to care for certain groups may have been reduced. Clinical applications and implications of these findings are explored. To further support the efficacy of tele-diagnostic autism assessment, additional research is required to solidify this methodology as a new “gold standard” option for autism assessment
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
