ديوانِ محمدی ازخواجہ محمد یار چشتی فریدی: DIWAN-E MUHAMMADI BY KHWAJA MUHAMMAD YAR CHISTI FARIDI
No full textThe state of Bahawalpur's land has been the spiritual abode and final resting place of the saints of Allah for almost a thousand years, who not only spread the light of Islam in this region but also imparted spiritual enlightenment throughout the Subcontinent region. Esteemed and revered personalities from different eras established their abodes and shrines here, fostering spiritual tranquility. Most of the graveyards within Bahawalpur's boundaries are associated with some venerable figures. One such Sufi saint is Hazrat Khwaja Muhammad Yar Chishti Faridi, born around 1883 in the vicinity of Khanpur, Qasba Auk Khan. His lineage traces back to Hazrat Ali through Aun bin Ya'la. Khwaja Muhammad Yar Faridi was not only a towering Sufi but also a distinguished poet. His poetry is in Persian, Urdu, and Saraiki languages. His collection of poetry, titled "Diwan-e Mohammadi," known as "Anwar-e-Faridi," published from Khanpur district Rahim Yar Khan, emanated from his shrine at the Muhammadia Darbar in Gudhi Sharif.
The "Diwan-e Mohammadi" consists of three parts. The first part comprises Persian poetry, the second Urdu poetry and the third Saraiki poetry. His works also include a theme of love for the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), which he expressed with utmost reverence, influenced by his spiritual mentors, especially Hazrat Khwaja Ghulam Farid and other Sufi poets. The Naatia poetry of Hazrat Khwaja Muhammad Yar Faridi, particularly in Saraiki dialect, is deeply imbued with the influence of his mentor, Hazrat Khwaja Ghulam Farid

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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
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
The Impact of Financial Literacy, Social Capital, and Financial Technology on Financial Inclusion in Saudi Arabia
No full textAbstract This study investigates the influence of financial literacy, social capital, and financial technology
(FinTech) on financial inclusion in Saudi Arabia, particularly in the context of Vision 2030. As the Kingdom
advances toward economic diversification, enhancing access to financial services has become a critical national
priority. Using a quantitative research approach, survey data was collected from university students across key
cities. The findings reveal that while financial technology and social capital have a significant positive impact
on financial inclusion, the effect of financial literacy is comparatively weaker. The study highlights the role of
FinTech innovations in overcoming traditional barriers to financial access, and the importance of trust-based
social networks in facilitating financial engagement. These insights offer important implications for
policymakers, educators, and financial institutions seeking to design targeted strategies that strengthen financial
inclusion among Saudi youth. Building financial capability, expanding FinTech literacy, and leveraging social
structures are recommended as pathways to a more inclusive financial ecosystem in Saudi Arabia
