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
O federalismo fiscal mexicano e as contribuições federais para Jalisco
Get PDFFollowing Mexico’s independence, a federal republic was established, composed of free and sovereign states, including Jalisco. The Jalisco Constitution of 1824 is the result of intense debate. Mexican federalism was strengthened by its adherence to this system. This adherence implied the federation’s obligation to distribute federal contributions to the states, which are crucial for economic development and social programs. Fiscal federalism addresses the obligations of the state and state governments regarding public revenue and expenditure. The Cádiz Constitution of 1812 influenced the Mexican federal system by addressing the provincial regime of the Kingdom of Spain.
Contributions are payments to the states for ceding taxing powers to the federal government under the National Fiscal Coordination System (SNCF). These federal contributions are crucial for the functioning of the states, financing public expenditures and social needs. Jalisco has received federal contributions since the colonial era, which are essential for financing government functions and promoting regional development.
The Fiscal Coordination Law (LCF), in force in 1978, regulates fiscal relations between levels of government to promote balanced development. The LCF establishes mechanisms for distributing fiscal resources based on population, economic development and poverty. The law promotes coordination between levels of government through state fiscal coordination committees. The National Fiscal Coordination System (SNCF) coordinates the distribution of revenue and fiscal responsibilities between levels of government. The SNCF regulates fiscal relations between the federal government, states and municipalities, seeking to increase revenue collection and distribute shares. Jalisco joined the SNCF, ceding tax authority in exchange for receiving federal resources and renouncing taxes that compete with the federation.Tras la independencia de México, se instauró una república federal integrada por estados libres y soberanos incluyendo Jalisco, la Constitución de Jalisco de 1824 es resultado de intensos debates, se fortaleció el federalismo mexicano al adherirse a este sistema, esta adhesión implicó la obligación de la federación de distribuir aportaciones federales a los estados, mismos que son cruciales para el desarrollo económico y programas sociales. El federalismo fiscal aborda las obligaciones del Estado y gobiernos estatales en ingresos y gastos públicos, la Constitución de Cádiz de 1812 influyó en el sistema federal mexicano abordando el régimen de las provincias del Reino de España.
Las aportaciones son pagos a los estados por ceder potestades tributarias al gobierno federal bajo el Sistema Nacional de Coordinación Fiscal (SNCF), estas aportaciones federales son cruciales para el funcionamiento de los estados, financiando gastos públicos y necesidades sociales, Jalisco ha recibido aportaciones federales desde la época colonial, esenciales para financiar funciones gubernamentales y promover el desarrollo regional. La Ley de Coordinación Fiscal (LCF), que entró en vigor desde 1978, regula las relaciones fiscales entre niveles de gobierno para promover el desarrollo equilibrado. La LCF establece mecanismos para distribuir recursos fiscales basados en población, desarrollo económico y pobreza, la ley promueve la coordinación entre los niveles de gobierno mediante comités estatales de coordinación fiscal. El Sistema Nacional de Coordinación Fiscal (SNCF) coordina la distribución de ingresos y responsabilidades fiscales entre los niveles de gobierno. El SNCF regula las relaciones fiscales entre el gobierno federal, estados y municipios, buscando incrementar la recaudación y distribuir participaciones. Jalisco se adhirió al SNCF, cediendo potestad tributaria a cambio de recibir recursos federales y renunciando a impuestos que compitan con la federaciónApós a independência do México, foi instaurada uma república federal integrada por estados livres e soberanos, incluindo Jalisco. A Constituição de Jalisco de 1824 é resultado de intensos debates e fortaleceu o federalismo mexicano ao aderir a esse sistema. Essa adesão implicou a obrigação da federação de distribuir contribuições federais aos estados, as quais são cruciais para o desenvolvimento econômico e programas sociais. O federalismo fiscal aborda as obrigações do Estado e dos governos estaduais em relação a receitas e despesas públicas. A Constituição de Cádis de 1812 influenciou o sistema federal mexicano ao tratar do regime das províncias do Reino da Espanha.
As contribuições são pagamentos aos estados por cederem competências tributárias ao governo federal, sob o Sistema Nacional de Coordenação Fiscal (SNCF). Essas contribuições federais são essenciais para o funcionamento dos estados, financiando despesas públicas e necessidades sociais.

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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
