Impactos de la boleta única en el comportamiento electoral en Argentina: evidencia de Córdoba y Santa Fe (2011-2023)
This article examines the effects of implementing the Australian ballot (boleta única papel, BUP) in the Argentine provinces of Córdoba and Santa Fe between 2011 and 2023. It focuses on two dimensions of electoral behavior: split-ticket voting, understood as the selection of different parties across multiple races within the same election, and voter fatigue, defined as a decline in attention or engagement as voters progress through the ballot, measured by the incidence of blank and null votes. In contrast to earlier studies focused on initial implementations, this research analyzes a decade of sustained use, allowing for the identification of contextual variations and enduring trends. Based on the findings, the article offers policy recommendations aimed at strengthening future electoral reforms.Este artículo analiza los efectos de la incorporación de la boleta única papel (BUP) en las provincias argentinas de Córdoba y Santa Fe entre 2011 y 2023. Se abordan dos dimensiones del comportamiento electoral: el voto cruzado, entendido como la elección de diferentes partidos en distintas categorías durante un mismo acto electoral, y el efecto fatiga, definido como la pérdida de atención o interés del votante a medida que avanza en la boleta, medido a través del voto en blanco y nulo. A diferencia de estudios previos centrados en la primera implementación, este trabajo examina una década de uso, lo que permite identificar variaciones y tendencias sostenidas. A partir de los hallazgos, se proponen recomendaciones orientadas a fortalecer futuras reformas electorales
REDES SOCIALES Y DEMOCRACIA: LA ESTRATEGIA COMUNICACIONAL DE NAYIB BUKELE EN TWITTER DURANTE LA PANDEMIA DEL COVID-19 EN EL SALVADOR.
De un tiempo a esta parte las redes sociales se transformaron en una herramienta esencial en la producción y circulación del discurso político. En el contexto de la crisis sanitaria causada por el Covid-19 se han empleado con diversos fines: difundir información gubernamental, recomendar y concientizar a los usuarios sobre medidas de prevención o para confrontar con adversarios políticos. En ese sentido, retomando perspectivas teóricas de la comunicación social y la ciencia política, este artículo pretende caracterizar el tipo de liderazgo político del presidente Nayib Bukele a través del análisis de su estrategia comunicacional llevada a cabo en Twitter durante el desarrollo de la pandemia del Covid-19 en El Salvador. La metodología es de carácter descriptiva con base empírica y se realiza un análisis de los tweets producidos por la cuentanayibbukele en el periodo de marzo a mayo de 2020. A través de un proceso de recolección manual se analizaron un total de 802 producciones de la red social en función de dos variables: el perfil institucionalista y el personalista. Este artículo sustenta que el estudio de los nuevos procesos de mediatización de la política, con base en las redes sociales, resulta ilustrativo para comprender el modo en que la comunicación juega un rol preponderante en la dinámica democrática y en la configuración del liderazgo político
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
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We 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
