The connection between educational aspirations and risky sexual behavior
No full textSeksualnost je multidimenzionalni konstrukt sastavljen od biološke, psihosocijalne, kulturalne kliničke i bihevioralne dimenzije. Bihevioralna dimenzija usmjerena je na seksualno ponašanje te pruža uvid u razloge, načine i oblike seksualnog ponašanja, uključujući i rizično seksualno ponašanje. Rezultati istraživanja koji su proučavali rizično seksualno ponašanje, definirali su različite zaštitne čimbenike koji pridonose prevenciji i smanjenju rizičnog seksualnog ponašanja čime se su se obrazovne aspiracije pokazale kao jednim od takvih faktora. Sukladno nalazima istraživanja, obrazovne aspiracije negativno su povezane s rizičnim seksualnim ponašanjem, a muškarci su iskazivali učestaliju tendenciju prakticiranja rizičnog seksualnog ponašanja. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati povezanost obrazovnih aspiracija i rizičnog seksualnog ponašanja te utvrditi spolne razlike u rizičnom seksualnom ponašanju. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 203 sudionika. Istraživanje je provedeno putem Google Forms ankete, a sudionici su ispunjavali Upitnik sociodemografskih podataka, Skalu obrazovnih aspiracija i Upitnik seksualnog rizika. Analiza podataka je pokazala da nije utvrđena statistički značajna povezanost obrazovnih aspiracija i rizičnog seksualnog ponašanja. Utvrđena je statistički značajna razlika u namjeri za angažmanom u rizičnim seksualnim ponašanjima, pri čemu veću namjeru iskazuju muškarci, ali nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika između muškaraca i žena u rizičnom seksualnom ponašanju, preuzimanju seksualnog rizika s neobaveznim partnerima, rizičnim seksualnim ponašanjima/djelima, impulzivnom seksualnom ponašanju te rizičnim analnim seksualnim ponašanjima/djelima.Sexuality is a multidimensional construct comprised of biological, psychosocial, cultural, clinical, and behavioral dimensions. The behavioral dimension focuses on sexual behavior and provides insight into the reasons, ways, and forms of sexual behavior, including risky sexual behavior. Research results that have studied risky sexual behavior have identified various protective factors that contribute to the prevention and reduction of risky sexual behavior, with educational aspirations emerging as one of these factors. According to the research findings, educational aspirations are negatively correlated with risky sexual behavior, and men have shown a more frequent tendency to engage in risky sexual behavior. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between educational aspirations and risky sexual behavior and to determine gender differences in risky sexual behavior. A total of 203 participants took part in the study. The research was conducted via Google Forms survey, and participants completed the Sociodemographic Data Questionnaire, the Educational Aspirations Scale and the Sexual Risk Survey. Data analysis showed that no statistically significant correlation was found between educational aspirations and risky sexual behavior. A statistically significant difference was found in the intention to engage in risky sexual behaviors, with men showing a higher intention, but no statistically significant difference was found between men and women in risky sexual behavior, taking sexual risks with casual partners, risky sexual behaviors/acts, impulsive sexual behavior, or risky anal sexual behaviors/acts

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
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
