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
Umijeće javnog nastupa
No full textCiIj je govora prenijeti informacije, odnosno ključnim porukama potaknuti publiku da djeluje prema našim očekivanjima. Umijeće javnog govora sadrži niz tehnika i vrsta komunikacija s kojima govornik mora izvrsno rukovoditi. Dakle, uspješan govornik je vjerodostojan, uvjerljiv, iskren i pripremljen za nastup. Sadrži široki vokabular, vlada glumačkim vještinama, poznaje verbalnu i neverbalnu komunikaciju. Govorimo o stručnoj i inteligentnoj osobi s jezičnim sposobnostima. Nadalje, publika u sedam sekundi stvara prvi dojam o govorniku. O njemu ovisi uspješnost prenesenih informacija. Upravo zbog toga, govornik treba uvježbati početak govora kako bi u prvim početcima treme izvrsno ovladao tematikom i ostvario pozitivan stav prema publici. Naravno, vizualni izgled je izrazito bitan. Svaki stručan govornik mora njegovati uredan, profinjen i umjeren izgled. Poanta jest da se ne skreće pažnja s govora na izgled govornika. Dapače, napretkom tehnologije imamo mogućnost korištenja tehničkih vizuala. Pomoću njih možemo ostvariti snažniju poruku koja će ostati u pamćenju svakog pojedinca. Uza sve navedeno, umijeće javnog nastupa je vještina koju se može savladati uz redovito prakticiranje i učenje.The goal is to convey all the information, respectively with the key messages, encouraging audience to act according to our expectations. The art of public speaking contains a number of techniques and types of communication with whom speaker must manage. Therefore, successful speaker is credible, compelling, honest and prepared for performance. Contains a wide vocabulary, handle acting skills, knows verbal and nonverbal communication. We are talking about professional and intelligent person with language skills. Further, audience in seven seconds creates the first impression about speaker. According to him will be based the success of transfered information. Because of that, speaker should practice the begining of his speech, so that he could at first stage of fear exquisitely overcome the topic and achieve positive attitude from the public. Of course, the visual appearance is extremely important. Every professional speaker must nurture neat, refined and moderate appearance. The point is that appearance does not draw attention from the speech on the appearance of speaker. Because of modern technology, we have the ability to use tehnical visuals. By using them we can achieve a stronger message, which will remain in memory of all. The art of public speaking is a skill which can be overcome with regular practice and learning
Kupovne navike na internetu generacije Y
No full textPrikazom povijesnog razvoja te nastankom novog marketinškog miksa kao rezultata globalizacije i razvoja interneta, današnja populacija koja većinu svojih obveza izvršava putem pametnih uređaja, naziva se Y generacijom. Ista generacija ističe se zbog različitih životnih navika i odgoja od prethodnih generacija te počinje mijenjati svoje kupovne navike. Dvjema postavljenim tezama utvrdila se promjena kupovnih navika. Y generacija većinom izvršava kupovinu putem interneta, a potencijalni potrošači se prethodno informiraju prije kupovine samih proizvoda jednostavnim pronalaženjem informacija. Ovim radom uvodi se u ekspanziju marketinškog miksa, društvenih mreža, odnosno online kanala koji su na raspolaganju korporacijama za stvaranje što boljeg utjecaja na ciljanu skupnu, ponašanje potrošača, prilagodbu brendova na online kanale te njihov utjecaj na donošenje odluke potrošača o kupovini. Na kraju rada analizira se istraživanje Y generacije i njihove novonastale kupovne navike.The historical developments described in this paper, especially globalization and the development of the Internet, have led to the advent of a new marketing mix. These developments have made it possible for the present generation of young people to fulfill the majority of their obligations using smart devices. They are called generation Y and compared to previous generations they have very different habits and practices and a different upbringing. This is reflected in the change in their shopping habits. This paper sets out two main theses in order to prove this change in shopping habits. Generation Y shops online more than any other generation, and because information is easily accessible, potential consumers are well informed before buying products. The paper introduces the expansion of the marketing mix into social networks that have become newly available online marketing and trade channels. Corporations can use them to maximize their impact on their targeted audience, study consumer behavior, tailor brand communication, and influence consumer purchasing decisions. The last part of the paper analyzes new shopping habits of generation Y
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
