Masters Degree. University of KwaZulu-Natal Pietermaritzburg.Lolu cwaningo lubheka ukuqanjwa kwamagama ezindawo zamabhizinisi edolobheni lasePietermaritzburg emva konyaka we-1994, lugxile emagameni aqanjwe ngolimi lwesiZulu. Lolu cwaningo luqhutshwa ngaphansi komkhakha wezilimi zase-Afrika eNyuvesi yaKwaZulu-Natal, lucubungula izizathu eziholela ekuqanjweni kwamagama ezindawo zamabhizinisi ngolimi lwesiZulu, incazelo yawo kanye nomqondo awuqukethe. Lolu cwaningo luhlose ukuphendula le mibuzo: Yiziphi izizathu ezenza izindawo zamabhizinisi ziqanjwe ngolimi lwesiZulu? Zithini izincazelo zamagama amabhizinisi aqanjwe ngesiZulu futhiaqukethe muphi umondo? Lolu cwaningo luhlose ukuhlaziya izizathu zokuqanjwa kwamabhizinisi ngesiZulu kanye nokuhlola imithelela yencazelo yalawa magama naloko ahlotshaniswa nako Lolu cwaningo lulandela idizayini eyikhwalithethivu, umcwaningi uqoqa ulwazi ngokubuza imibuzo kubabambiqhaza, esebenzisa uhla lwemibuzo esakuhleleka elungiselelwe kusengaphambilini. Luphinde lubuyekeze ucwaningo oselwenziwe ngaphansi kwalo mkhakha okuhlukaniswe ngezigaba ezintathu, okungukuthi sihlolisisa imisebenzi yocwaningo eyenziwe ngamagama ezindawo emhlabeni wonke jikelele, kulandele imisebenzi yocwaningo ngamagama ezindawo ezwekazi i-Afrika, siphethe ngemisebenzi yocwaningo eyenziwe eNingizimu Afrika. Injulalwazi esetshenziswe kulolu cwaningo injulalwazi yesifundoncazelo (Semantic Theory). Le njulalwazi isetshenziswa ukuhlaziya incazelo ngokukaRaper (1987) othi amagama anencazelo ehlukene kabili okukuqala uthi angamalebuli nje amele loko aqanjwe kona, kanti eyesibili yona uthi igama linika incazelo ephelele yalokho elikumele. Bese siphinda sibuka ngokukaNicolaisen (1974) othi incazelo yegama ihlukana izigaba ezintathu okuyi yilekzikhali, yi-asosiyethivu, ne-onomastiki. Indlela esetshenziswe ukwenza lolu cwaningo yipharadayimu eqondayo (interpretivism), idizayini yona eyikhwalithethivu,kanti ulwazi luqoqwe kusetshenziswa, isampula eqoka ngenhloso (purposive sampling). Lolu cwaningo lusebenzisa isampula eqoka ngenhloso kubanikazi bamabhizinisi, abangabaqambi bamagama acwaningwayo atholakala edolobheni iPietermaritzburg, njengoba kuyibo abanolwazi oludingekayo. Umcwaningi uqoke lawo mabhizinisi abona ukuthi ulwazi uyoluthola kuwo futhi luzokwenela ocwaningweni esebenzisa izindlela ebaluliwe ngenhla. Kutonyulwe ababambiqhaza abangama-50. Ulwazi luqoqwe ngokuqhuba izingxoxo ezihlelekile kusetshenziswa imibuzo elungiselelwa ngaphambilini ngokulawulwa ucwaningo oselwenziwe kulomkhakha. Ulwazi lube seluhlaziywa lwahlukaniswa ngezindikimba ezigqamile namasu anembayo njengokuqhathanisa inani lamagama aqanjwe ngendlela efanayo ngokuwahlukanisa ngamaqoqo kuqala amaningi kuye ngokulandelana kugcine amancane. Okutholakele kuveza izindikimba ezinhlanu zokuqanjwa kwamagama ngesiZulu: (1) Ukuqanjwa kusetshenziswa amagama abantu nezibongo.Kutholakale ukuthi iyona ndikimba evela kakhulu kunezinye uma kuza kunani lezindawo eziqanjwe ngamagama nezibongo zabantu. Avele kuyindlela esetshenziswa kakhulu.
(2) Kulandele ukuqanjwa kusetshenziswa amagama esiZulu abuyisa ubunye, kubantu bomdabu waseNingizimu Afrika emveni konyaka we-1994. lendlela ibonisa ukushintsha okubanzi emphakathini wasePietermaritzburg ekubuyiseleni ukuzigqaja namasiko. (3) Okwesithathu kutholakale ukuthi ukuqanjwa kwezindawo zamabhizinisi abangcwabi ngamagama anika ithemba, kuvela kungezinye zezindikimba ezigqamile edolobheni iPietermaritzburg. Kutholakale ukuthi le ndlela iyasiza ukududuza labo abasuke belahlekelwe ithemba ngenxa yokushiywa izihlobo nemindeni yabo. (4) Bese kuba eyesine, yona evele ingeyokugcina uma zilandelana ngamanani kusuka kweziningi kuye ngokwehla. Lawa ngamagama eqanjwe ngenxa yomthelela wendawo nomgwaqo ibhizinisi elikuwo. Isizathu esenza le ndikimba igqame kangaka kungenxa yoMkhandlu kaMasipala wedolobha oqanjwe ngomfula uMsunduzi. Lokhu kukhombisa umthelela omkhulu wegama lesigodi noma lomfula ekuqanjweni kwamagama ezakhiwo zamabhizinisi, njengoba amagama afana nelithi "Duzi" asehlotshaniswa kakhulu nedolobha. (5) Okokugcina ukuqanjwa kwamagama kusetshenziswa iziqubulo zokubambisana emphakathini lawa asebenzisa ukuheha amakhasimende ngokuqoka isiqubulo esiletha umuzwa wobunye nenqubekela phambili Izincomo ngokungenziwa, ziningi izinhlaka ezibambe iqhaza ekubuyiseni isithunzi sezinto zomdabu kuleli ngemuva kokuphela kobandlululo ngonyaka we-1994. Ukuqanjwa kwamagama ezindawo zamabhizinisi ngezilimi zomdabu ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezingamadolobha, abonakala enohlonze kakhulu ekubuyiseni isithunzi sabasebenzisi bolimi, nokuzigqaja nje kubantu bomdabu. • Ukusetshenziswa kwalawa magama ngendlela okuyiyona yona. • Ukugqugquzela ukuqanjwa kusetshenziswe izilimi zomdabu • Ukugcineka kwalawa magama kusetshenziswa izinhlelo ezahlukene okumele zisungulwe umkhandlu. Izincomo zocwaningo lwangesikhathi esizayo, kusanegebe ocwaningweni lwamagama edolobheni iPietermaritzburg kanye nezindawo ezakhele idolobha. Nakuba lolu cwaningo lucwaninga amagama aqanjwe kusetshenziswa ulimi lwesiZulu, asekhona namanye amagama aqanjwe ngezinye izilimi kanye nemigwaqo. • Ucwaningo olusengenziwa ngesikhathi esizayo, kucwaningo azakhiwo zezindawo ezingama tuckshop, amahholo, izndawo zokhonzela, kanye namagama amafemu. • Kusangacwaningwa amagama ezigodi eziqanjwe ngesiZulu zezindawo ezakhele iPietermaritzburg. • Ukuguquka kwamagama ezindawo zikahulumeni kanye nokuqanjwa kabusha kwazo
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
