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
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
Paternal-Infant Attachment and Determination of Factors Affecting Attachment
No full textAVESAmaç: Bağlanma, bebeğin doğumdan itibaren kendisi için önemli olan kişilere karşı geliştirdiği güçlü ve duygusal bağlardır. Bu çalışma bir kamu hastanesine başvuran 4-12 aylık bebeği olan babalarda baba bebek bağlanma durumunu ve bağlanmayı etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla planlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma bir kamu hastanesi çocuk polikliniğine başvuran 4-12 aylar arasında bebeği olan, 179 baba ile gerçekleşti. Veriler
Mart-Haziran 2017 tarihlerinde “Kişisel Bilgi Formu” ve “Baba Bebek Bağlanma Ölçeği” kullanılarak toplandı. Veriler sayı, yüzde, ortalama ve
standart sapma olarak sunuldu ve gruplar Student t, Anova (F), Mann-Whitney U ve Kruskal-Wallis testleri kullanılarak karşılaştırıldı.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan babaların “Baba-Bebek Bağlanma ölçeği (BBBÖ) düzeyleri 84,67±9,00’dur. Çalışmada bir çocuk sahibi olan babaların iki
ve daha fazla çocuğa sahip olan babalara göre, üniversite eğitim alan babaların lise eğitimi alan babalara göre BBBÖ puanı anlamlı düzeyde yüksekti
(p<0,05). Aylık geliri orta olan babaların BBBÖ puanı geliri düşük olan babalara göre ve kendi babaları ile ilişkisini iyi olarak tanımlayan babaların BBBÖ
puanı orta olarak tanımlayan babalara göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (p<0,05). Bebeğin cinsiyeti ve yaşı, babanın ilk kez baba
olma yaşı, çalışma durumu, evlilik süresi, aile tipi ve bebeğin istenme durumu ile babaların BBBÖ puanı arasında anlamlı ilişki saptanmadı (p>0,05).
Sonuç: Çalışmada babaların bebek bağlanma ölçeğinden yüksek puan aldığı sonucuna varıldı. Çocuk sayısı, babanın yaşı, eğitimi, gelir durumu ve
kendi babası ile ilişki düzeyinin baba bebek bağlanmasıyla ilişkili olduğu görüldü.Objective: Attachment is a strong and emotional connection to the person associated with the birth of an infant. This study was planned to determine the status of paternal infant attachment and the factors that affect the attachment of 4-12-month-old infant in a public hospital. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted with 179 fathers, who had children between the ages of 4 months and 12 months, who were referred to a public hospital child polyclinic. Data were collected between March-June 2017, using the Personal Information Form and the Paternal Infant Attachment Scale. The data are presented as numbers, percentages, mean, and standard deviation, and the groups were compared using the Student's-t, Anova (F), Mann-Whitney U, and Kruskal-Wallis tests (p<0.05). Results: The Paternal Infant Attachment Scale (PIAS) levels of the fathers participating in the study are 84.67±9.00. According to the parents who had two or more children and fathers with one child, the score of PIAS in them was higher than that of the parents who received university education (p<0.05). The PIAS score of the fathers with moderate monthly income was statistically higher than the fathers who had low monthly income and the fathers who defined their relationship with their fathers as good (p<0.05). The gender and age of the baby, the age of father for the first time, working status, duration of marriage, type of family, and the condition of the baby were not significantly correlated with the PIAS score of the fathers (p<0.05). Conclusion: In the study, it was concluded that fathers scored higher than the infant attachment scale. The number of children, the age of the father, his education, his income level, and his level of relationship with his father were related to his father's attachment to the baby. @ Archives of Health Science and Research.All rights reserved
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.
