Begränsad : Om hur skuldsättningsproblem bidrar till social exkludering bland unga vuxna
No full textÖverskuldsättning innebär en situation där en individs svårigheter att återbetala sina skulder ger upphov till en kontrollförlust över ekonomin. Överskuldsättning är ett stort och växande problem i Sverige som ger upphov till en rad olika folkhälsoproblem. Unga vuxna personer är en särskilt sårbar grupp för att hamna i skuldsättningsproblem. Fokus i detta kapitel är att analysera unga vuxna personers överskuldsättning i termer av social exkludering och kontroll. Analysen tar sin utgångspunkt i djupintervjuer med överskuldsatta personer mellan 18 och 25 år. Genom kapitlet får vi följa hur överskuldsättning ger upphov till exkludering från en rad olika arenor, till exempel bostads- och arbetsmarknaden men också möjligheten att upprätta eller behålla meningsfulla sociala relationer
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

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

This thesis studies social services’ work with clients who use illicit drugs. The aim is to contribute to knowledge about how social services’ imperative for action – to actively promote change for clients who use illicit drugs – is shaped in practice and balanced against the principle of autonomy. The aim is also to discuss the conditions and implications of social workers’ practice, and to show how power is expressed. The material was collected through observations, reflective discussions with staff, interviews and focus groups at three social service offices. Viewing social workers as street-level bureaucrats, the study draws on discourse psychology in dialogue with Foucauldian concepts of power. The analysis shows that social workers’ conditions are contradictory and dilemmatic. Individualistic ideals and clients’ freedom are highly valued but collide with strategies that can be perceived as authoritarian, when clients are seen as incapable to act in their own good. To handle contradictions, social workers perform substantial legitimacy work. The analysis demonstrates that social workers, when pursuing and justifying their job, engage in a considerable rhetorical and interactional work. When acting to promote change in clients’ drug use, social workers normally avoid acting against clients’ intention, and rather pursue a strategy that aligns with clients’ freedom of choice and aims to shape clients’ will to change. In this way, power is made invisible. Finally, the analysis reveals that social workers shape their approaches and strategies towards clients on the basis of how they view clients’ drug use with regards to risks, how they perceive clients’ morals, and how they assess the expected return-on-investment of the work, rather than on the basis of clients’ drug use as such. As a consequence, many clients need to take full responsibility for ensuring that they get the help they might need
