The sources of investigative journalism on Spanish service of intelligence CNI (National Intelligence Center)
No full textLas limitaciones legales impuestas por la Ley de Secretos Oficiales de 1978 y por la Ley Reguladora del Centro Nacional de Inteligencia (CNI) de 2002 a los periodistas para informar sobre las actividades del servicio de inteligencia (CESIDCNI) no han impedido, desde la llegada de la democracia, que los medios de comunicación informen de sus actividades. Ha sido posible gracias a las diversas fuentes con que han contado los profesionales, mucho más numerosas de las que podrían pensarse en un simple acercamiento al tema. Un estudio sobre 265 noticias relevantes publicadas en los últimos 30 años permite sistematizar quiénes y qué cargos ocupan los informantes que, sabiendo que su colaboración es perseguible legalmente, han ayudado a los periodistas a sacar a la luz esas noticias.Comunicació
El periodismo de Investigación como facilitador del control parlamentario al CESID-CNI. La prensa y las intervenciones de los directores del espionaje en el Congreso
Full text linkEl presente artículo analiza la información publicada por los medios de comunicación sobre el CESID y el CNI, para descubrir en qué medida ha dado lugar a acciones de control en el Congreso de los Diputados. También estudia las ocasiones en las que los directores del servicio de inteligencia acudieron al Parlamento para informar y si los temas de los que hablaron procedían de informaciones destapadas por la prensa. Como se pone de manifiesto, el control parlamentario fue en aumento tras la creación del CNI en 2002 y una parte importante puede atribuirse al papel del periodismo de investigación.This article analyzes the information published by the media about the CESID and the CNI, to discover to what extent it has given rise to control actions in the Congress of Deputies. It also studies the occasions in which the directors of the intelligence service went to Parliament to inform and if the topics they spoke about came from information uncovered by the press. As can be seen, parliamentary control increased after the creation of the CNI in 2002 and an important part can be attributed to the role of investigative journalism.Comunicació
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Confidentes e informantes
No full textEl informante es el que mantiene una relación ocasional con el periodista, el confidente lo hace habitualmente. En cualquier caso, su valor, aunque con riesgos es enorme para el periodista investigador, pese al anonimato que los caracteriza. Los móviles de estas fuentes son el dinero, la venganza, la justicia. Su uso plantea dilema éticos, son muy importantes para cumplir cualquier propósito fundamental del Periodismo de Investigación: sacar a la luz los ilícitos públicos y privados que alguien quiere mantenerlos ocultos
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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 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
