Lebensplanung junger Frauen. Neue Optionen und alte Normalität. Transkripte der Interviews
No full textDE: Transkripte und Protokolle der qualitativen Leitfadeninterviews, die im Zeitraum 1989-1990 mit 77 jungen Frauen (im Alter von 20-30 Jahre) geführt wurden, von denen insgesamt 52 für die Nachnutzung zur Verfügung stehen. Unterschiedliche Ausbildungswege (duales System, Vollzeitschule oder Ausbildungsmaßnahme sowie Umschulungsmaßnahmen - ohne Hochschulabsolventinnen) und verschiedenen Formen prekärer und regulärer Beschäftigung fanden Berücksichtigung. Von besonderem Interesse ist dabei die Arbeits- und Lebenssituation von jungen Frauen, die in unterschiedlicher Weise instabil, befristet, arbeits- und sozialrechtlich nicht abgesichert oder auch selbständig beschäftigt sind, und die Bedeutung dieser Beschäftigungsformen für ihre Berufsorientierung und Lebensplanung insgesamt. Durch das zentrale Konzept der Lebensplanung wurden die Frauen zur Bilanzierung und Kontextualisierung ihres bisherigen Lebens sowie zu Zukunftsplanungen angeregt. Dabei spielten neben Fragen zum beruflichen Umfeld insbesondere auch Fragen zu sozialen Beziehungen und Partnerschaften, Mutterschaft und gesellschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen eine Rolle.
EN: Transcripts and protocols of qualitative guided interviews conducted with 77 young women (aged 20-30 years) in the period 1989-1990, of which a total of 52 are available. Different training paths (dual system, full-time school or training programme as well as retraining measures - excluding university graduates) and different forms of precarious and regular employment were taken into account. Of particular interest here is the work and life situation of young women who are employed in various ways in unstable, temporary, unsecured employment or self-employment, and the significance of these forms of employment for their career orientation and life planning as a whole. The central concept of life planning encouraged the women to take stock of and contextualise their lives to date and to plan for the future. In addition to questions about their professional environment, questions about social relationships and partnerships, motherhood and social conditions also played a role
The change of normative gender orders in the process of migration. A transnational perspective
Full text linkJungwirth I. The change of normative gender orders in the process of migration. A transnational perspective. COMCAD Arbeitspapiere - working papers, 48. Bielefeld: COMCAD - Center on Migration, Citizenship and Development; 2008.In this paper, the question of social change for women as actors of migration is examined. Apart from feminist theory and international gender studies, this topic is located in migration studies and social theory as well. It is proposed to analyse the transformation of gender norms in processes of migration in connection with the changes taking place in the domain of labour, namely the increasing tertiarisation in post-industrial societies on the one hand, and a globalising economy and international distribution of labour following from this on the other. A concept for transnational gender orders is outlined, proposing that, along with these economic and structural processes, normative requirements and ascriptions for social actors are emerging as well. They target the gender performance of women as actors of migration, insofar as an assumed universal gender socialisation as women is becoming a qualification and resource in an international distribution of labour
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
