    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

    Full text link
    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

The competitors which are few numbered and at a known standards before, but nowadays, the numbers of them are around the world and national standard levels are joining to the competition. The firms must planned use the most important source of today "human power" very well, to get out of these conditions by success. In this progress, we are trying to explain that to be the winner of the competition, the firms must be good at strategic and human resources planing. Personnel planing always mix the human resources, which is not at the wanted level yet. In ours progress, human resources and strategic planning models, which have to be done, are arranged. It is said that all the high-levelled managers must manage the human resources management as a human resource manager instead of one manager. It is explained that, by this way the other management's of the firm relate with human resources directly, and by this relation it is explained that the firm will reach to its targets. As a theoretical, at the light of these subjects, there has been a study done in the firms of Denizli, which the human resources, management's of the companies. By comparing the theoretical knowledge's and the results of the study, it is arranged how the firms are suitable to the subjects which are told in our progress, At the results of the study, it is looked for the answer of, if the firms are really using the human resources management or still the personnel management? Haluk SAKIV Günümüzde işletmelerin karşılarına çıkan zorlukların geçmiş 10 yıl ile dahi kıyaslandığında büyük oranlarda artış gösterdiği ortaya çıkmaktadır. Önceden sınırlı sayıda ve belirli kriterlerde olan rakipler, günümüzde sayıları tüm dünya çapında ve ulusal standartlar seviyesinde rekabete katılmaktadır. İşletmelerin bu şartlar altından başarıyla kalkması için günümüzün en değerli kaynağı, aynı zamanda varlığı halini alan insan gücünü çok iyi planlamalı ve kullanmalıdır. Bu çalışmada yukarıda bahsedilen rekabet ortamının galibi olabilmek için işletmelerin stratejik yönetim ve insan kaynakları yönetimini iyi algılamanın gerektiğini anlatmaya çalışmaktayız. Henüz istenilen yerlerde bulunmayan insan kaynakları yönetimi, daima personel yönetimi ile karıştırılmıştır. Çalışmamızda uygulanması gereken çağdaş yönetim anlayışının gerektirdiği insan kaynakları yönetimi ve stratejik yönetim modelleri incelenmiştir. İnsan kaynaklan yönetiminin işletmelerde yalnızca tek temsilciyle yürütülmesi yerine işletmedeki tüm üst yöneticilerin birer insan kaynakları yöneticisi olarak çalışmalarının gerekliliği vurgulanmıştır. Bu sayede işletmenin diğer birimleri ile insan kaynakları yönetiminin birbirleriyle doğrudan ilişkili oldukları ve bu ilişki neticesinde işletmenin daha etkin bir yöntemle hedeflerine ulaşabileceği açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. Teorik olarak bahsedilen konuların ışığında DENİZLİ ilinde insan kaynakları yönetimi uygulayan işletmelerin üst yönetim kademelerini içeren bir uygulama yapılmıştır. Uygulamalarda ortaya çıkan sonuçlar ile teorik bilgiler karşı laştırılarak işletmelerin yapılan çalışmada bahsedilen konulara ne derecede uygun olduğu araştırılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda işletmelerin gerçekten insan kaynakları yönetimini mi uyguladıkları ; yoksa halen personel yönetiminin mi geçerli olduğu sorularına cevap aranmıştır. Haluk SA

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
