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

No full text06.03.2018 tarihli ve 30352 sayılı Resmi Gazetede yayımlanan “Yükseköğretim Kanunu İle Bazı Kanun Ve Kanun Hükmünde Kararnamelerde Değişiklik Yapılması Hakkında Kanun” ile 18.06.2018 tarihli “Lisansüstü Tezlerin Elektronik Ortamda Toplanması, Düzenlenmesi ve Erişime Açılmasına İlişkin Yönerge” gereğince tam metin erişime açılmıştır.Afganistan coğrafî, tarihi, sosyo-kültürel yapısı, ekonomik konumu itibariyle çeşitli çalışmalara ve bilimsel araştırmalara konu olmuşsada, İran ve Suudi Arabistan'ın bölgedeki rekabetinin Afganistan üzerindeki etkilerini açıkça ortaya çıkaran bir çalışma yapılmamıştır. Dolayısıyla bu araştırmada iki ülke arasındaki rekabetin güvenlik ve siyasal açılardan Afganistan üzerindeki etkilerinin ortaya çıkarılması hedeflenmektedir. 11 Eylül 2001 saldırısı dolayısıyla ABD'nin Afganistan operasyonu sonrasında Taliban yönetimi iktidardan uzaklaştırılmış ve ülkenin yeniden yapılandırılmasında Suudi Arabistan ve İran bölgedeki birçok ülkede yaptıkları gibi Afganistan'da da oluşan güç boşluğu üzerinde rekabet etmeye başlamışlardır. Dolayısıyla Suudi Arabistan ile İran'ın bölgedeki rekabeti Afganistan'ı siyasal ve güvenlik açılardan olumsuz etkilemektedir. Ayrıca ekonomik açıdan da oldukça zayif konumda olan Afganistan iki ülke başta olmak üzere dışa bağımlı bir konudadır. Bu bağlamda İran ekonomisinin batılı ülkeler tarafından uygulanan ambargolar dolayısıyla zayıflaması hem İran'da bulunan üç milyona yakın Afgan işçileri hem de onların desteklemekle yükümlü oldukları ailelerini dolayısıyla Afganitan'ı olumsuz etkilemektedir. Aynı zamanda ülkedeki farklı etniksel ve mezhepsel grupların bu ülkeler tarafından desteklenmesi ülke güvenliğinin istikrara kavuşmasındaki en büyük engel olarak ifade edilmektedir. Bu araştırma deskriptif analitik bir yöntemle yazılmış olup teori olarak da Ortadoğu'nun rekabete ve çatışmaya dayalı bir bölge olduğunu gösteren realist yaklaşım çerçevesinde devlet içi dinamikleri ile uluslararası sistemi bir arada değerlendiren neoklasik realizm esas alınmıştır. Araştırmada varılan sonuç ise Ortadoğu'da Suudi Arabistan ile İran rekabetinin Afganistan'ın güvenliğini olumsuz etkilemekte olduğudur. Zira Afganistan'ın hem coğrafi hemde kültürel açıdan İran ve Suudi Aarabistan ile kopmaz bağlarının mevcudiyeti sebebiyle bu iki ülke kaynaklı bir değişikliğin bölgede meydana gelmesi sonucunda doğrudan etkilemektedir.Even though Afghanistan's geography, history, socio-cultural structure and economic situations has been the subject of various studies and scientific researches, unfortunately no study has been conducted that clearly reveals the effects of Iran and Saudi Arabia's competition in the Middle East concerning Afghanistan. Therefore the main aim of this study is to reveal the effects of competition between these two countries on the security and political aspects. After the US operation in Afghanistan in September 11, 2001, the Taliban government was removed from power, and in the country's reconstruction Saudi Arabia and Iran began to compete on the power gap as did many other countries in the region. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of Saudi Arabia and Iran's competition in the region on Afghanistan in terms of security and political aspects and to provide an important research document. Saudi Arabia-Iran's competition in the region adversely affects Afghanistan in terms of political and security. Afghanistan, which is extremely weak in economic terms is dependent on foreign countries, especially those countries(Saudi Arabia and Iran).The weakening of the Iranian economy due to the embargoes imposed by Western countries negatively affects both the Afghan workers working in Iran and the families they are obliged to support back home. Moreover, the fact that different ethnic and sectarian groups in the country are supported by these countries (Saudi Arabia and Iran) is the biggest obstacle in stabilizing the country's security. The research was written using descriptive and analytical methodology. within the framework of the realist approach explaining that the Middle East is a region based on competition and conflict. Neo-classical realism, as a theory is used as an example in this reasearch to evaluate the dynamics of the state and the international system. As a result of the study, it was concluded that Afghanistan was affected negatively from the competition of Saudi Arabia and Iran.The fact that the changes from these two countries is taking place it directly affects Afghanistan for the existence of an inseparable link with these two countries both geographically and culturally

په پوهنتونونو کې د علمي، فرهنګي او ادبي غونډو اغېزمنتیا
No full textThe development and enrichment of scientific knowledge thrive on exchanging ideas and discussions. Such academic interactions within university settings catalyze creativity, self-confidence, and comprehensive learning experiences for educators and students. These forums facilitate the transfer of scientific expertise, ideas, and observations among talented and knowledgeable individuals. Through keen observation and rigorous debates on research findings, the latent talents of educators and students are unveiled, enhancing their capacities for courage, eloquence, and logical reasoning. This, in turn, enriches the learning process and contributes to the establishment of a robust educational system encompassing scientific, cultural, and literary dimensions. Surprisingly, there has been a lack of systematic research assessing the effectiveness of such academic gatherings within universities. Therefore, this research employs a comprehensive methodological approach to elucidate the efficacy of these academic meetings.د علومو پرمختګ او ښکلا د افکارو په تبادلو او مباحثو کې نغښتې، په پوهنتونونو کې دا ډول غونډې استاد او محصل ته د نوښت، ځانباورۍ او پراخې مطالعې لرلو وس ورکوي، له چپټري زده کړو څخه یې باهدفه او په پایلو ولاړو زده کړو ته رابولي، یو بل ته د وړ او پر کار پوه کسانو د علمي تجربو، افکارو او مشاهدو لېږد ترسره کېږي. د کره کتنې له اړخه په پنځونو او څېړنو تاوده بحثونه رامنځته کېږي، د استاد او محصل د استعداد پوښلې جزیرې پرانیستل کېږي او په دوی کې د جرأت، فصاحت او منطق قوه پیاوړې کېږي، همدا راز د زده کړې پروسه ګټوره کېږي او بالاخره د یوې ژبې پر علمي، فرهنګي او ادبي بډاینې سربېره، پیاوړی او بسیا تحصیلي نظام رامنځته کېږي. په پوهنتونونو کې د دې ډول غونډو په مؤثریت منظمه څېړنه نه وه شوې، چې دلته د کمپوزیټ میتود په څېړنیز ډول د دې ډول غونډو مؤثریت ښه روښانه شوی.د علومو پرمختګ او ښکلا د افکارو په تبادلو او مباحثو کې نغښتې، په پوهنتونونو کې دا ډول غونډې استاد او محصل ته د نوښت، ځانباورۍ او پراخې مطالعې لرلو وس ورکوي، له چپټري زده کړو څخه یې باهدفه او په پایلو ولاړو زده کړو ته رابولي، یو بل ته د وړ او پر کار پوه کسانو د علمي تجربو، افکارو او مشاهدو لېږد ترسره کېږي. د کره کتنې له اړخه په پنځونو او څېړنو تاوده بحثونه رامنځته کېږي، د استاد او محصل د استعداد پوښلې جزیرې پرانیستل کېږي او په دوی کې د جرأت، فصاحت او منطق قوه پیاوړې کېږي، همدا راز د زده کړې پروسه ګټوره کېږي او بالاخره د یوې ژبې پر علمي، فرهنګي او ادبي بډاینې سربېره، پیاوړی او بسیا تحصیلي نظام رامنځته کېږي. په پوهنتونونو کې د دې ډول غونډو په مؤثریت منظمه څېړنه نه وه شوې، چې دلته د کمپوزیټ میتود په څېړنیز ډول د دې ډول غونډو مؤثریت ښه روښانه شوی
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
