Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Sustainable development from an Islamic Perspective: meaning implications and policy concerns
No full textAbstract This paper examines the debate on the meaning of sustainable development and the policy implications of different approaches from an Islamic perspective. It integrates mainstream and Islamic positions on the subject and argues that to whatever definition of sustainable development one might subscribe, eventually, each ends in an environmental concern. This paper attempts to show that the continuous increase in output of goods and services worldwide imposes a trade off between material prosperity on the one hand and pollution poisoning of human beings on the other. It engages in the intensifying debate about how the benefits of the former and the negative impact of the latter could be more evenly distributed. The paper takes inspiration from the maqasid (objectives) of the Shari’ah and verses of the holy Qur’an that indicate a way out of this impasse. It holds that the worldview differences of secularism and Islam are the basic reason of divergence between their approaches to development. It argues that the Islamic approach is more agreeable to environmental protection and concludes that issues surrounding sustainable development have moral, ethical, social, and political complexities and that economics or economists alone cannot resolve the problem.Sustainable; Development; Islamic perspective; Policy concerns
Generalized complex k-Horadam sequence, generalized gaussian k-Horadam sequence and r-Hankel matri̇ces
No full textBu çalışmada başlangıç şartları verilen genelleştirilmiş kompleks k-Horadam dizisi ve genelleştirilmiş Gaussian k-Horadam dizisi rekürans bağıntılarıyla tanımlanmış ve bu dizilerin temel özellikleri incelenmiştir. Bu dizilerin kısmı toplam formülleri elde edilmiştir. Daha sonra bu sayı dizileri için önemli bazı eşitlikler verilmiştir. Hankel matris yardımıyla r-Hankel matris tanımlanmış, elemanları genelleştirilmiş kompleks k-Horadam ve genelleştirilmiş Gaussian k-Horadam sayılarından oluşan bu matrislerin normları hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca elemanları bazı sayı dizileri olan bu matrislerin norm değerleri için hesaplamalar yapılmıştır.In this study generalized complex k-Horadam sequence, and Gaussian k-Horadam sequence with initial conditions are defined by means of their recurrence connections and main principles of these sequences are examined. Subsequently, certain significant equations are given for these numerical sequences. r-Hankel matrix is defined in wiev of Hankel matrix. Moreover, the norms of these matrices, whose constituents are composed of generalized complex k-Horadam and generalized Gaussian k-Horadam numbers, are computed. In addition, calculations are conducted for the norm values of these matrices, some of whose constituents are composed of certain numerical sequences
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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

Anahtar Kelimeler: Gıda okuryazarlığı, diyet kalitesi, gıda okuryazarlık ölçeği, beslenme okuryazarlığıThis study aims to determine the adaptation status of Hasan Kalyoncu University Faculty of Health Sciences to food literacy and Mediterranean diet quality index and to investigate the relationship between food literacy and diet quality. December 2020 - March 2021, the research was conducted among 204 volunteer individuals 19,6% of whom were male (n:40) and 80,4% of whom were female (n:164) active undergraduate students at Hasan Kalyoncu University Faculty of Health Sciences. In this study, students were divided into 3 groups: nutrition and dietetics, physiotherapy and rehabilitation, and nursing according to their departments. The questionnaire form was used to determine the general information of the students, their eating habits, frequency of food consumption, height, and body weight based on the students' statements. The Short Form of Food Literacy (SFLQ) and the Mediterranean diet quality index (KIDMED) were applied. The mean age of the students is 21,0±2,0 years. The mean BMI of the students was 23,2±3,1 kg/m² in men and 21,6±2,9 kg/m² in women. The majority of students (%72,1) have a normal BMI(?18,5-<24,9 kg/m²). The mean KIDMED score of the students is 5,2±1,4. 3,4% of the students have optimal diet quality and 11.8% have low diet quality, while 84,8% of the students' diet should be interfered with. The mean of the students from the SFLQ scale, which is scored between 0-52, is 35,7±6,4 points. 81,4% of the students have a high level of food literacy and 18,6% have a low level of food literacy. A positive and statistically significant relationship was found between food literacy and diet quality (r= ,184, p<0,01). There was a positive significant correlation between food literacy and body mass index (r= -,052, p<0,01). Keywords: Food literacy, diet quality, food literacy questionnaire, nutrition literac
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
