Commentary on A and B (by C) v A (Health and Social Services Trust)
No full textThe case in this chapter is a clinical negligence claim against a fertility clinic, which carelessly used the wrong donor sperm in a woman’s IVF treatment (A and B (by C, their mother and next friend) v A (Health and Social Services Trust) [2011] NICA 28). The consequences of this mistake were that the children born from the fertility treatment had different skin colour to the woman and her husband, as well as each other. The claim was from the children, as the clinic settled out-of-court with the parents. Marian Duggan’s commentary explains and problematizes the approach of the feminist judgment, as well as putting the broader identity issues signalled by the case in context while Julie McCandless’ subsequent feminist judgment deploys very different reasoning to the original court decisions, and in part reaches a different conclusion

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
Feminist Judgment of A and B by C (their mother and next friend) v A Health and Social Services Trust [2011] NICA 28
No full textDispelling 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
Higher Education and Inherent Requirements: Beyond Inherency to Coherency
No full textAbstract
tttttThis paper examines how inherency, established in statements universities produce asserting the core abilities necessary to enter and qualify for their degrees, connects with employment in accredited professions, creating barriers for people with disabilities and related conditions. There is no consistent definition of inherent requirements (ir s) across higher education internationally. To assist the ongoing development of ir s, our discussion is set out across three parts. We start by reviewing the origins of ir s highlighting an inconsistency in form and content across the sector. We then provide an analysis of two ir statements from actual institutions noting how they position disability, ability, and the competencies deemed inherent to teaching and learning. Finally, we examine areas where governance and policy, teaching and learning, and employability, can potentially change how ir s are deployed in future practice. Our goal is to shift academic and work-related requirements beyond inherent possessive limitations to coherent performative prospects

A Polyphonic Debate on Social Equity Budgeting
No full textThis paper is polyphonic (i.e., a debate involving multiple perspectives) and highlights emerging interdisciplinary thoughts onpast, current, and future social equity budgeting (SEB). We present a vision for the field and emphasize the potential impact ofthis paper. We hope to enliven debates regarding context, underpinning philosophies, and methods, thus fostering a greater the-oretical and practical reconsideration of SEB. The impact of this paper is significant, as it leads to a fundamental rethinking ofSEB and related research, profoundly influencing the field. To do so, this paper has brought together 10 international scholars tofoster an interdisciplinary approach regarding views and strategies. The richness of looking at a plurality of perspectives enablesexploring developments that open the potential for a much greater theoretical and practical reconsideration of SEB and relatedresearch. The paper shows that while there is much convergence on the importance of ongoing research on gender, race, andclass, there can also be more research on areas such as SEB's philosophical, theoretical, and empirical underpinnings that needfurther development.1 | IntroductionWhile progress has been made in social equity research, the rolesplayed by budgetary processes in creating or exacerbating ineq-uities remain underexplored. This misstep is not just a gap in ourunderstanding but a pressing issue that needs to be addressed.More research in this area is crucial to understanding and ad-dressing these issues; this paper does just this.Among the tools to address inequities is social equity budget-ing (SEB), highlighted explicitly as necessary in future publicadministration and public sector accounting research (Bartleand Rubin 2024; Grossi et al. 2023; McDonald et al. 2022). SEBapplies fairness principles to public budgets and budgeting pro-cesses (McDonald and McCandless 2024). SEB research has foursignificant dimensions to ensure fairness concerning (a) access,(b) processes, (c) quality, and (d) outcomes, both together andseparately (McCandless et al. 2022).Within SEB, there has been research on race and ethnicity(Martínez Guzmán, Jordan, and Joyce 2023), gender (Polzer,Nolte, and Seiwald 2023; Rubin and Bartle 2023a), and its im-portance has been discussed concerning sexual orientationand gender identity (Naylor 2021), and ability status (Chordiyaet al. 2023).
