Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
GO Barometer: meer wantrouwen en onvoldoende capaciteit binnen het vakgebied
No full textDe tweede editie van de GO Barometer is uit! De Stichting Kennis Gebiedsontwikkeling (SKG) brengt ook dit jaar de stand van zaken binnen het vakgebied van gebiedsontwikkeling in kaart. Gebiedsontwikkeling is een zaak van lange adem, dus er zijn veel overeenkomsten met 2022 – maar toch ook enkele opvallende verschillen. Vooral het stijgende onderlinge wantrouwen tussen partijen is opvallend. Daarnaast zet onvoldoende personele capaciteit de uitvoering van uitdagende ruimtelijke projecten verder onder druk.Urban Development ManagementPractice Chair Urban Area Developmen

Distributive concerns when replacing a pay-as-you-go system with a fully funded system
No full textThe author uses a simulation model to quantify the impact on income distribution of having a neutral social security program that is fully funded replace a progressive social security program that redistributes income toward the poor but is financed by a pay-as-you-go method. He finds that if the original pay-as-you-go system is large enough to yield an income replacement rate of at least 40 percent for the middle class and 200 percent for the poor, then the proposed change helps the poor in the long run, so long as public debt does not increase by more than 40 percent of GDP during the transition. Such a reform allows an increase in the capital stock per worker, so in the long run the poor benefit more through higher real wages than they lose because progressive redistribution has ended. In the short run, however, a compensatory program is needed because the poor lose their subsidy before receiving the long-term benefit. In most cases, the 40 percent of GDP available from the increase in public debt is enough to finance a transfer program that compensates the poor in the"short"run (the first 50 years). The author concludes that concern about the welfare of the poor is unwarranted, in both the short and long runs, if the compensatory program is implemented.Environmental Economics&Policies,Economic Theory&Research,Safety Nets and Transfers,Services&Transfers to Poor,Rural Poverty Reduction

The effect of semantic distance in yes/no and go/no-go semantic categorization tasks
No full text The effect of semantic distance (Lund & Burgess, 1996) was examined in three semantic categorization experiments. Experiment 1, a yes/no task that required participants to make animal/nonanimal judgments by responding to both sets of stimuli (Forster & Shen, 1996), revealed no effect of semantic distance. Experiment 2, a go/no-go task that required participants to respond to only the experimental (i.e., nonanimal) items, revealed a large effect of semantic distance. In addition, response latencies were longer and error rates were lower to the experimental items in Experiment 2 than to those in Experiment 1. These findings were replicated in Experiment 3, in which semantic distance and task condition were manipulated within subjects. We conclude that these results are consistent with (1) the view that the go/no-go tasks elicited more extensive processing of the experimental items and (2) a connectionist account of semantic activation, whereby processing is facilitated by the presence of semantic neighbors.

Effectiveness of Two Types of Exercises before Classes on Inhibitory Function
No full textThe purpose of this study is to find an effective solution to the status quo, children cannot concentrate on the class and behave irrationally; they are emotionallyunstable and sometimes interrupt the class and even go away from the class. This is the case recently seen in the most primary schools in Japan. To solve this issue, the author, a teacher in a public primary school, found out an effective impact caused by the physical activities, called GO/NO-GO task, in order to investigate prefrontal cortex development in Japanese children through two types of exercises before classes. As a result, a faster response time and higher accuracy rate for GO/NO-GO tasks were observed. Based on this, since the accuracy rate after the two types of exercises in this study were significantly higher than those after the control activity and reading, it is suggested that two types of exercises were effective in improving inhibitory function.ArticleJournal of Child and Adolescent Behaviour.4(2):284(2016)journal articl
Dynamic Contactless Power Transfer On Go-karts
No full textWireless power transfer is getting more attention than ever before but seems to be lagging in the go-kart industry. Manufacturers are designing more electric powered go-karts, but haven’t found a proper solution for most of its major drawbacks. The added weight from the battery pack and the required time to recharge are just two of these major drawbacks. These drawbacks make electric go-karts less desired in the rental industry, where turn-around-time is required to be as short as possible; in order to maximize profit. An Inductive Power Transfer System can be used to charge the battery pack of an electric go-kart statically in the pit-lane, but also dynamically on the track. Both of which are shown to reduce the required size of the battery-pack of electric cars and busses. This study determined the feasibility of an IPTS on go-karts, considering the current state of the art, in order to solve these drawbacks. The design of the charger was optimized for a go-kart while keeping its most important features the same. A safety analysis was performed using a FEM-program to see whether the system can be used by the public. The go-kart with the charger was modeled and simulations were used to determine the required size of the battery pack in a case-study. The results of this case-study were used to evaluate the financial viability of an IPTS on go-karts
