Trends and Issues Related to Studies on Nursing Care
Get PDFAim : This study aims to examine the trends and issues in Japanese and foreign research papers on nursing care for young women with breast cancer. Methods : We searched the online version of the CINAHL and Ichushi-Web Ver. 4 for the keywords “breast cancer”, “young women”,and “nursing”or“care.” Results : 14papers were chosen for analysis. The research themes pertained to sexual and reproductive health, cancer experience, the role of the family, and rehabilitation needs. Conclusion : This study found that research on nursing for young women with breast cancer was still in its infancy. We expect that,in the future,foundational research on young women with breast cancer will be undertaken, not only overseas, but in Japan as well,and that there will be active efforts to create nursing support methods for these young women.目的：本研究の目的は、若年性乳がん患者の看護に関する国内外の研究論文の動向と課題を明らかにすることである。方法：若年性乳がん患者の看護について述べている論文を抽出するため、CINAHL及び Web版医学中央雑誌 Ver.４を使用し、「breast cancer（乳がん）」「young women（若年女性）」「nursing（看護）」または「care（ケア）」をキーワードに検索を行った。結果：14件の論文が分析対象となり、研究内容は、性・生殖に関する研究、がん罹患体験に関する研究、家族における役割に関する研究、リハビリテーションの必要性に関する研究に大別された。考察：若年性乳がん患者に関する研究は少なく、着手されたばかりの萌芽期にあることが明らかとなった。海外諸国のみならず、我が国においても若年性乳がん患者の看護に関する基礎的な研究を積み重ね、看護支援方法の構築に向けた積極的な取り組みが期待される。Datadepartmental bulletin pape
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
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
