    In dieser Folge interviewen Yuxin Jia, Ha Anh Pham und Jule Altena Dr. Christina Kuhn, akademische Rätin im Hochschuldienst an der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena. Es geht um eine Zeitperiode am Institut DaFZ und IKS durch Mitwirkende. Die Rede wird sein vom Internationalen Master DaFZ, von Interessens- und Forschungsgebieten von Frau Dr. Kuhn und die Chancen, die man hat, wenn man den Master DaFZ studiert! Viel Spaß beim Hören

    The study was conducted on September 21, 2016 in a woodlot at York University, Keele Campus, Toronto, ON, Canada by Pham Ha Phuong Do and Victor Suay Espi.For data set #3, a random tree was selected, and 10 pairs of tree were randomly picked from the chosen tree. The distance between the trees in each pair was measured in meter by big measuring tape, and the diameters of each tree picked to pair with the chosen tree was measured in centimeter by a smaller pocket measuring tape. To measure the distance between the trees, the measuring tape was used straight from the edge of the one tree to another. The diameter of the trees was measured at approximately chest height of the main trunks.*Note: Data set #4 and meta data are included in the same sheet, as cvs file doesn't allow multiple sheets in one file.</div

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    “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

    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

    Operationalisation and exploration of the Employability Capital Growth Model (ECGM): insights from University Students in Vietnam

    No full text
    Purpose: underpinned by sustainable career ecosystem theory, our study aimed to operationalise and explore using the Employability Capital Growth Model (ECGM) to understand how various types of employability capital, contextual factors, and desirable personal outcomes contribute to the career readiness of second-year domestic university students in Vietnam.Design/methodology/approach: seven students participated in an education and training series comprised of seven sessions, each lasting three hours, using the ECGM as a tool and involving academic and industry experts. Students provided written feedback after seminars two to seven via reflective exercises, and the Q&amp;A sessions with the expert speakers were audio-recorded. All audio information was transcribed, and the full dataset was analysed via thematic analysis.Findings: students valued social, cultural, psychological, health, scholastic, market-value, career identity, and economic capital as valuable contributors to their career readiness. They also recognised the interconnected nature of different forms of employability capital and the interplay between agency and contextual factors in determining personal outcomes.Originality: the theoretical contribution comes from empirically validating the ECGM underpinned by sustainable career ecosystem theory. The seven-part education and training series also captures the benefits of such an approach in fostering interaction between students and other actors, including career development professionals, academics, and industry experts. Practically, our study offers valuable insights for educators and policymakers seeking to enhance the career readiness of university students in Vietnam

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    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
