Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
Differences between some indicators of the situational efficency of women handball teams and final result on the Olympic tournament in Tokyo
No full textCilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je utvrditi razlike u pokazateljima situacijske efikasnosti pobjedničkih i poraženih ekipa u odnosu na konačni ishod utakmice, odnosno pobjedu ili poraz ženskih rukometnih ekipa na Olimpijskom turniru u Tokyu 2020. godine. Pratilo se 12 reprezentacija koje su bile raspoređene u dvije skupine (6 ekipa u skupini A i 6 u skupini B), a koje su kasnije igrale utakmice četvrtfinala, polufinala, utakmicu za treće mjesto te finale. Uzorak je činilo 35 odigranih utakmica (70 suprostavljenih ekipa). Za potrebe istraživanja koristilo se 18 varijabli, od čega ih je 16 bilo za fazu napada i 2 za fazu obrane. Bilježena je frekvencija uspješno i neuspješno izvedenih tehničko-taktičkih elemenata koje su činile varijable u radu, a putem notacijske analize za svaki odigrani susret. Za utvrđivanje razlika između pobjedničkih i poraženih ekipu koristila se regresijska analiza. Utvrđene su značajne statističke razlike promatranih varijabli i to: šut sa sedam metara neuspješno - 7M_NE (p=0,00); neuspješan šut s krila - W_NE (p=0,00); izgubljene lopte - TO (p=0,01); šut s devet metara neuspješno - 9M_NE (p=0,02) te neuspješan šut sa šest metara - 6M_NE (p=0,03).
Pobjedničke ekipe imale su značajno nižu frekvenciju neuspjelih pokušaja u šutiranjima s crte 7M te s krilnih pozicija. Isto tako su činile manje tehničkih grešaka te gubile manje lopti u fazi napada, a napadačke akcije su završavale iz bolje izrađenih prilika za vanjske pucačice s 9 metara i koncentriranijom realizacijom izglednih šansi sa šest metara čemu u prilog govori značajno veći broj promašenih šuteva s 9 i 6 metara kod ekipa koje su gubile utakmice u odnosu na pobjedničke ekipe.
Analize ovog tipa potrebno je provoditi učestalije jer se zahtjevi i dinamika modernog vrhunskog sporta mijenja iz dana u dan.The goal of this study was to establish the difference of indicator of the situationaly effciency of the game result, ie winning and defeated female handball teams in Olympic tournament in Tokyo 2020. 12 national teams were separated in 2 groups ( 6 teams in group A and 6 in group B) and after the first stage they played quarterfinals, semifinals, game for third place and finals.
The sample was consisted of 35 matches (70 opponents). For sample of variables were used 18 variables, 16 of them were elements during attacking phase of the game and 2 were defending.
Frequency of successfuly and unsuccessfully executed elements of handball were noted during the every match of the tournament and they were taken as a varibales. To determine the difference between winning and defeated teams was used regression analysis. Statistically significant differences showed up in following variables: seven meter throw unsuccessfully – 7M_NE (p=0.00); wing shot unsuccessfully – W_NE (p=0.00); turnovers – TO (p=0.01); shot from 9 meter distance unsuccessfully – 6M_NE (p=0.02); shot from 6 meter distance unseccessfully – 6M_NE (p=0.03).
Winning teams had significantly lower frequency of unsuccessfully executed shots from seven meter line and from the wing positions, they were making less turnovers in the attacking phase of the game and they put themselves in better situtation to shot from 9 and 6 meter distance which resulted with less unsuccessfully shots from both distances in the winning teams in regards to defeted teams.
Handball game requires an engagement on year base and it is necessary to pursue this kind of reseach in future due to modern sport requierments are changing daily
Maastricht convergence criteria as the starting point for the Republic of Croatia for the Economic and Monetary Union
No full textGlavni cilj ovog rada je analizirati ulogu Maastricht kriterija konvergencije kao uvjeta
uspostave ekonomske i monetarne unije te jedinstvene valute. Predmet analize biti će prednosti
i nedostaci uvođenja eura u Republici Hrvatskoj te s pravnog aspekta bit će analiziran uvjet
pravne konvergencije za punopravno članstvo u EMU kroz usklađenost nacionalnog s
europskim zakonodavstvom. Rad ukazuje da Hrvatska trenutačno ispunjava tri od četiri
Maastricht kriterija potrebna za uvođenje eura: kriterije u pogledu stabilnosti cijena, državnih
financija i dugoročnih kamatnih stopa. Hrvatska formalno ne ispunjava kriterij deviznog tečaja
jer još uvijek ne sudjeluje u tečajnom mehanizmu ERM II. Pravni okvir Republike Hrvatske u
skladu je sa zahtjevima pravne konvergencije. U posljednjim izvješćima o konvergenciji,
objavljenim 2018. i 2016. godine Europska komisija ocijenila je da je zakonodavstvo u RH u
potpunosti usklađeno s Ugovorima i Statutom ESSB-a i ECB-a. Naposljetku, za Hrvatsku su
koristi uvođenja eura kao službene valute znatno veće od troškova povezanih s uvođenjem eura.
Ključno ja da će koristi od prelaska na euro biti veće nego što je slučaj za druge države članice
europodručja i EU-a.The main aim of this thesis is to analyze the role of the Maastricht convergence criteria as a
condition for establishing the Economic and Monetary Union and a single currency. The subject
of the analysis will be the advantages and disadvantages of introducing the euro in the Republic
of Croatia and from a juridical aspect will be analyzed the condition of law convergence for
full membership in the EMU by harmonizing the national with European legislation. The paper
indicates that Croatia currently meets three of the four Maastricht criteria required for the
introduction of the euro: the criteria for price stability, government finances and long-term
interest rates. Croatia does not formally meet the exchange rate criterion because it does not yet
participate in the exchange rate mechanism ERM II. The legal framework of the Republic of
Croatia is in line with the requirements of legal convergence. In the latest Convergence Reports,
published in 2018 and 2016, the European Commission assessed that legislation in the Republic
of Croatia is fully in line with the Treaties and the Statute of the ESCB and the ECB. Finally,
for Croatia, the benefits of introducing the euro as the official currency are much greater than
the costs associated with introducing the euro. Crucially, the benefits of switching to the euro
will be greater than is the case for the other countires in the euro area and EU
