    TEORIA DI PORTAFOGLIO: diversificazione degli investimenti e controllo del profilo rendimento-rischio

    No full text
    La trattazione aggiunge alla teoria, ai modelli, alle dimostrazioni anche varie analisi rivolte allo studio e alla valutazione del mercato azionario mondiale alla luce dei rendimenti mensili dal 1970 al 2009 ovvero per sottoperiodi dell'intervallo, analisi fatta sui settori industriali e sui paesi ovvero sottoinsiemi degli stessi. Si propone, inoltre, di utilizzare la modellistica della selezione del portafoglio nella programmazione strategica aziendale in quanto l'azienda è un portafoglio di prodotti o servizi e, in questo ambito, si cerca di dare risposta al problema noto come "sostenibilità dei debiti" ovvero della valutazione del tasso di interesse certo massimo sostenibile per un'impresa dati i rendimenti e i rischi attesi dei suoi business nonché i vincoli operativi cui deve sottostare (Cap. 5 pag. 87-95). Come indicato a pag. VI, Il lavoro è frutto della collaborazione dei due Autori sotto la supervisione e il coordinamento di Francesco Rossi. I capitoli 1,2,3,4,6,7,10, 11 sono da attribuirsi a Francesco Rossi mentre Filippo Mantovani ha curato le applicazioni al mercato azionario, i capitoli 5 e 9 sono responsabilità di Francesco Rossi, il capitolo 8 si deve a Filippo Mantovani

    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

    Full text link
    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

    Reconstructive urethroplasty using porcine acellular matrix : evolution of the grafting procedure

    Objectives: The use of prostate-specific antigen (PSA, hK3) results in the overdiagnosis and overtreatment of prostate cancer. Markers are needed that could identify aggressive, fast-growing tumors and help decide which patients would benefit most from aggressive treatment. Human glandular kallikrein 2 (hK2) could be such a marker. The aim of this study was to test how PSA and hK2 could predict the pathologic stage and grade in a set of patients with clinically organ-confined disease. Methods: Heparin plasma was collected from 188 patients who had undergone radical prostatectomy at the Turku University Central Hospital. Total and free PSA, as well as total and free hK2, were measured and the results compared with the pathologic TNM stage, tumor World Health Organization grade, and Gleason score. Results: Free and total hK2 performed similarly to PSA in their ability to separate groups of patients with different stages or grades. Concentrations of both kallikreins were significantly different in patients with World Health Organization grade 1 cancer compared with grade 2. Neither marker could separate patients with different Gleason scores. Although PSA concentrations increased most between patients with Stage pT2b and those with pT3a, the increase in hK2 was most pronounced between those with Stage pT3a and those with pT3b. Conclusions: Although hK2 could not predict the cancer stage or grade better than PSA, changes in the hK2 and PSA concentrations occurred at different points in cancer progression. hK2 may have a role in the prognosis of prostate cancer, but additional studies with longer follow-up are required to determine whether hK2 can help when selecting treatment options

    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
