Open access self-archiving: An author study
No full textThis, our second author international, cross-disciplinary study on open access had 1296 respondents. Its focus was on self-archiving. Almost half (49%) of the respondent population have self-archived at least one article during the last three years. Use of institutional repositories for this purpose has doubled and usage has increased by almost 60% for subject-based repositories. Self-archiving activity is greatest amongst those who publish the largest number of papers. There is still a substantial proportion of authors unaware of the possibility of providing open access to their work by self-archiving. Of the authors who have not yet self-archived any articles, 71% remain unaware of the option. With 49% of the author population having self-archived in some way, this means that 36% of the total author population (71% of the remaining 51%), has not yet been appraised of this way of providing open access. Authors have frequently expressed reluctance to self-archive because of the perceived time required and possible technical difficulties in carrying out this activity, yet findings here show that only 20% of authors found some degree of difficulty with the first act of depositing an article in a repository, and that this dropped to 9% for subsequent deposits. Another author worry is about infringing agreed copyright agreements with publishers, yet only 10% of authors currently know of the SHERPA/RoMEO list of publisher permissions policies with respect to self-archiving, where clear guidance as to what a publisher permits is provided. Where it is not known if permission is required, however, authors are not seeking it and are self-archiving without it. Communicating their results to peers remains the primary reason for scholars publishing their work; in other words,
researchers publish to have an impact on their field. The vast majority of authors (81%) would willingly comply with a mandate from their employer or research funder to deposit copies of their articles in an institutional or subject-based repository. A further 13% would comply reluctantly; 5% would not comply with such a mandate

The processing of familiar and novel senses of a word: Why reading Dickens is easy but reading Needham can be hard
No full textWe investigated how easy it was for people to understand familiar and novel senses for words by monitoring participants eye movements while they read short texts. To do this, we compared the processing of names (e.g., Dickens) where sentential context gave them literal interpretations (e.g., met Dickens) versus metonymic interpretations (e.g. read Dickens). Familiar nictonyins were straiahtforward to process, but unfamiliar metonyms (e.g., Needham in read Needham) caused processing difficulty unless context made it clear that the metonymic interpretation Would be appropriate (introducing Needham as all author). The results suggest that readers call use contextual information immediately to extend a word's interpretation by rule
IRUS-UK: making scholarly statistics count in UK repositories
No full textIRUS-UK is a new national standards-based statistics aggregation service for institutional repositories in the UK. The service processes raw usage data from repositories, consolidating those data into COUNTER-compliant statistics by following the rules of the COUNTER Code of Practice - the same code adhered to by the majority of scholarly publishers. This will, for the first time, enable UK repositories to provide consistent, comparable and trustworthy usage data, as well as supporting opportunities for benchmarking at a national level. This article provides some context to development, benefits and opportunities offered by the service, an institutional repository perspective and future plans
Necrotising autoimmune myopathy
No full textNecrotising Autoimmune Myopathy is a subacute proximal myopathy with high creatine kinase levels and biopsy findings of necrotic and regenerating fibres with minimal inflammation. It is associated with anti-SRP and anti-HMGCR antibodies, malignancy and connective tissue disorders, and is responsive to immunotherapy. This review aims to increase clinician awareness of this rare but potentially treatable condition, by describing the clinical presentation, serological and biopsy findings, and providing an overview of the currently utilised immunotherapy regimens
