    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

    Tourist experience

    U ovome završnom radu, navedeno je poimanje i sam razvoj turizma, te iskustva u turizmu koji se temelje na putniku, proizvodima i lokalnom stanovništvu. Iskustva u turizmu prolaze kroz pojedine faze, odnosno kroz preuranjenu fazu, iskustvenu fazu, i reflektirajuću fazu. Spominjući kvalitetu, kvaliteta utjecaja iskustva turizma predstavlja pogled na turizam, a nastala iskustva turisti slikaju sa svojih putovanja. Ti utjecaji se bave političko-ekonomskom perspektivom, društvenom konstrukcijom, značenja medija, tumačenja značenja i mjesta, te kvalitete od života tumačenja u tri segmenta. Svaki segment ima više utjecaja unutar njega, a svaka je isprepletena s druga dva. Uz turizam, spominje se i kultura. Kultura i turizam su vrlo povezani, iako njihov odnos u praksi nije uvijek harmoničan. Kada govorimo o turističkoj kulturi, možemo reći da ona izravno utječe na turizam, te turizam sve više utječe ne kulturu koja postaje bitan motiv turističkih putovanja, čime možemo reći da je složen i višestran fenomen, zbog čega se pristupa njegovoj tipologiji, tj. izdvajanju pojedinih specifičnih podsektora. Generalno se smatra da turizam eksploatira kulturnu baštinu, što izaziva odbojnost ‘kulturnjaka’ (menadžment kulturnih atrakcija) prema turizmu. Umjesto suradnje, između kulture i turizma često postoji ‘konkurencija’. Usprkos ovim i sličnim nejasnoćama, umjetnički turizam je izbor određenog broja kulturnih turista, čemu doprinosi i sve veća ponuda, kao i promocija, raznovrsnih umjetničkih proizvoda. Bogata ponuda raznovrsnih umjetničkih događaja doprinosi jačanju imidža destinacije i nudi bolje uvjete života lokalnom stanovništvu.In this work, stated the conception and development of tourism , and experience in tourism based on the traveler, the products and the local population. Experience in tourism go through certain stages, or through premature stage, experiential phase, and reflective phase. Mentioning quality, quality tourism experiences influence the views on tourism and the resulting experience tourists take from their travels. These influences are dealing with a political-economic perspective, the social structure, meaning the media, interpreting the meaning and the place and the quality of life interpretation of the three segments. Each segment has more influence within it, each intertwined with the other two. Besides tourism, we talk about culture. Culture and tourism are very related, although their relationship in practice is not always harmonious. When we talk about the tourist culture, we can say that it has a direct impact on tourism, and tourism is increasingly affecting culture that is becoming an important motive for tourist travel, thus we can say that it is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon, which is why access to his typology, respectively, the separation of the individual specific sub-sectors. It is generally considered that tourism exploiting cultural heritage, which causes aversion 'cultural workers' (management of cultural attractions) to tourism. Instead of cooperation between culture and tourism, there is often a 'competition'. Despite these and other uncertainties, art tourism is a choice of a number of cultural tourists, combined with the increasing selection and promotion of various artistic products. The rich offer of various artistic events contributes to strengthening the image of the destination and provide better living conditions for the local population

    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

    Ovaj diplomski rad ispituje kako kombinacija metodologija upravljanja inovacijama poput lean startupa, design thinkinga i agilnih metodologija upravljanja projektima kao što su scrum i kanban može poboljšati inovativni potencijal razvoja digitalnih proizvoda na primjeru Firmusa, digitalne platforme koja poboljšava proces zapošljavanja studenata. Integracija različitih strategija inovacija pokazala se učinkovitom u poboljšanju funkcionalnosti platforme i zadovoljavanju potreba studenata na temelju istraživanja provedenog na Sveučilištu Jurja Dobrile u Puli

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    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

    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
