    <p><strong>Abstract:</strong> Dual careers have become a relevant matter in the world of work as one of the tools that can improve social life. In that regard, this study sought to examine the influence of identification of career needs on dual career development among students. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design with both qualitative and quantitative approaches in which a population of 360 people involving headteachers, deputy headteachers, Directors of Studies, Career guidance teachers, Games teachers; Sports officers; and students who have been involved in games and sports in the schools were targeted. The study used a sample of 186 people selected using purposive, simple random and cluster sampling techniques. Data was collected using a validated and pre-tested self-administered questionnaire and interview guide. Analysis of the quantitative data collected was done using descriptive and inferential statistics generated by the SPSS; while analysis of the qualitative data was done using thematic and content analysis. </p><p>The findings of the study revealed that for identification of career needs and dual career development, R2 = .297, F=77.304, Sig= .000 < .05 for academic career while for sports career R2 = .072, F=14.184, Sig= .000 < .05. The study concluded that identification of students' career needs had a higher magnitude of influence for academic than for sports career development. The study finally recommends that tobe able to support students in identification of career needs, the teachers should be trained and empowered with the requisite information about the various careers available for students to choose from. </p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Identification of Career Needs, Dual Career Development, Students, Sebei Sub-Region.</p><p><strong>Title:</strong> Identification of Career Needs and Dual Career Development among Students in Secondary Schools in Sebei Sub-Region</p><p><strong>Author:</strong> Yapsoyekwo Justine, Olivia Banja Nassaka, Muweesi Charles, Nambale Moses Geoffrey</p><p><strong>International Journal of Social Science and Humanities Research </strong></p><p><strong>ISSN 2348-3156 (Print), ISSN 2348-3164 (online)</strong></p><p><strong>Vol. 11, Issue 4, October 2023 - December 2023</strong></p><p><strong>Page No: 255-272</strong></p><p><strong>Research Publish Journals</strong></p><p><strong>Website: www.researchpublish.com</strong></p><p><strong>Published Date: 07-November-2023</strong></p><p><strong>DOI: </strong><a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10078111"><strong>https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10078111</strong></a></p><p><strong>Paper Download Link (Source)</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.researchpublish.com/papers/identification-of-career-needs-and-dual-career-development-among-students-in-secondary-schools-in-sebei-sub-region"><strong>https://www.researchpublish.com/papers/identification-of-career-needs-and-dual-career-development-among-students-in-secondary-schools-in-sebei-sub-region</strong></a></p&gt

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The 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

The study concluded that integration of students' needs with career had a higher influence for sports than for academic career development. The study finally recommends that career teachers need to provide guidance tailored to the needs of each student to allow for integration of student needs with career opportunities. Mass guidance to groups of students does not provide for integration of individual needs. </p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Integration of Students' Needs, Career Opportunities, Dual Career Development, Students Sebei Sub-Region.</p><p><strong>Title:</strong> Integration of Students' Needs with Career Opportunities and Dual Career Development among Students in Secondary Schools in Sebei Sub-Region</p><p><strong>Author:</strong> Yapsoyekwo Justine, Olivia Banja Nassaka, Muweesi Charles, Nambale Moses Geoffrey</p><p><strong>International Journal of Social Science and Humanities Research </strong></p><p><strong>ISSN 2348-3156 (Print), ISSN 2348-3164 (online)</strong></p><p><strong>Vol. 11, Issue 4, October 2023 - December 2023</strong></p><p><strong>Page No: 273-288</strong></p><p><strong>Research Publish Journals</strong></p><p><strong>Website: www.researchpublish.com</strong></p><p><strong>Published Date: 07-November-2023</strong></p><p><strong>DOI: </strong><a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10078205"><strong>https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10078205</strong></a></p><p><strong>Paper Download Link (Source)</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.researchpublish.com/papers/integration-of-students-needs-with-career-opportunities-and-dual-career-development-among-students-in-secondary-schools-in-sebei-sub-region"><strong>https://www.researchpublish.com/papers/integration-of-students-needs-with-career-opportunities-and-dual-career-development-among-students-in-secondary-schools-in-sebei-sub-region</strong></a></p&gt

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We 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 link
    We 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

    We 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
