Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Nuovi lavori, nuovi spazi, medesimi diritti, per l’unità produttiva digitale
Full text linkIl contributo analizza, dalla prospettiva giuslavoristica, l’influenza dettata dall’evoluzione tecnologica ai rapporti di lavoro, con particolare riguardo alle piattaforme digitali di lavoro. Partendo da un approccio "data driven" di tipo sperimentale, il giurista deve abbandonare l’approccio tecnofobico e adattare l’analisi giuridica alle trasformazioni in atto nel diritto del lavoro, anche per ciò che concerne la dimensione temporale. Le tendenze in corso, sia nello svolgimento dell’attività lavorativa che nelle relazioni industriali, portano, da un lato, a superare la distinzione tra lavoro subordinato e lavoro autonomo, e a ripensare il concetto di unità produttiva, che diventa ora anche digitale, senza, tuttavia, prescindere dall’esercizio dei diritti sindacali, come elementi immanenti al tema dell’unità produttiva. Il contributo intende evidenziare le problematiche applicative, fornendo – laddove possibile – prospettive teorico-pratiche "de jure condendo".The contribution analyzes, from a labour law perspective, the influence dictated by technological evolution on employment relationships, with particular regard to digital work platforms. Starting from an experimental, data-driven approach, the legal expert must abandon a technophobic approach and adapt the legal analysis to the ongoing transformations in labour law, including its temporal dimension. The current trends, both in the performance of work activities and in industrial relations, lead, on the one hand, to overcoming the distinction between subordinate and self-employed work and to rethinking the concept of a productive unit, which now also becomes digital. However, this does not exclude the exercise of trade union rights as inherent elements of the theme of the productive unit. The contribution aims to analyze the application problems, also providing – where possible – theoretical-practical treatments "de jure condendo"

Full text linkWe 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
PRESTAZIONI DI LAVORO IN UNA SOCIETÀ DI CAPITALI CON CUMULO DI CARICHE SOCIALI. ALCUNE IMPLICAZIONI PRATICHE SULLA DINAMICA TRA DEBITI E CREDITI CONTRIBUTIVI
No full textLa qualità di socio ed amministratore di una società di capitali composta da
due soli soci, entrambi amministratori, è in astratto compatibile con la qualifica
di lavoratore subordinato, anche a livello dirigenziale, sempre che il vincolo della
subordinazione risulti da un concreto assoggettamento del socio – dirigente alle direttive
ed al controllo dell’organo collegiale amministrativo formato dai medesimi
due soci (concreto assoggettamento tuttavia nella specie non riscontrato dalla Corte
di merito)
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
