    En un mundo de consumo y necesidades materiales crecientes, es necesario saber administrar los ingresos y los gastos que tienen las personas, en una primera instancia, en lo individual, para de manera posterior impactar en una segunda etapa ,lo familiar. Existen muchos factores para poder lograrlo, sin embargo, los autores coinciden en que la comprensión de los términos financieros, ahorro, inversión, deudas y tasa de interés, en la vida cotidiana, así como la puesta en práctica de hábitos de compra y ahorro, dan como resultado una sana administración de los ingresos y egresos de una casa (Herrera, Estrada y Denegri, 2011)

    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

    Evaluating a wellness intervention including micro-practices for healthcare professionals before and during COVID-19

    Objective: To describe, with a mixed design study, healthcare professionals' pre-post descriptive measures of quality of life (subjective wellness) and prolonged fatigue, as well as an improvement in overall wellness and satisfaction regarding micro-practices as a result of participation in a wellness intervention before and during COVID-19. Material and Methods: This study had a mixed design involving two independent groups of healthcare professionals participating in a wellness intervention with micro-practices before and during COVID-19. The intervention contained multimodal presentations with animated cartoon stories, comics, storytelling, readings, breathing, mindfulness and visualization exercises, adapted from second-order factors in the Indivisible Self model. Pre-post descriptive measures of quality of life (subjective wellness), prolonged fatigue, as well as improvement in overall wellness and satisfaction regarding micro-practices were collected. Results: Attending to either wellness interventions before or during COVID-19 had a positive and, in some cases significant, effect on important indicators of quality-of-life and prolonged fatigue among healthcare professionals. A qualitative analysis indicated a subjective improvement in overall wellness and satisfaction regarding the use of micro practices included in the wellness interventions, regardless of whether these were presented in person or virtually. Most participants subjectively indicated that they improved in the targeted indicators, especially achievement of better wellness. Conclusions: During ordinary and extraordinary circumstances, healthcare professionals require specific interventions that act primarily to provide them with strategies that can improve physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Use of micro-practices in multimodal workshops to improve healthcare practitioner wellness is a successful tool for learning or remembering the importance of pausing during daily clinical activities and refocusing their energy

    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
