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
Protection of rights of individuals with mental disorders in Ukraine

Серія психологічна. - 2016. - Випуск 1. - С. 57-63.Розглянуто правові аспекти захисту прав осіб із психічними розладами в Україні. Встановлено, що нормативне забезпечення у сфері психіатричної допомоги потребує удосконалення механізму реалізації низки законів та нормативних актів, котрі стосуються захисту прав осіб із психічними розладами. Доведено, що виключення суспільством осіб із психічними захворюваннями з його повсякденного життя призводить до зниження у них самооцінки й обмежень у їхніх діях та правах. People with mental disorders are usually separated from society and are either in hospitals or at home because of inadequate behaviour and increased aggres-sion. They are isolated from society and, therefore, they are limited in their contacts and rights. It should be noted that society not only avoids people with mental health problems, but close family may seek to distance themselves from the person with mental disorders, as contact with such a person is burdensome and had a nice. Therefore, being isolated from the outside world, these people do not know their rights and can not use them or fight for them. Also of great importance is the status of people with mental disorders, which may not allow them to fully assess the situa-tion adequately. Regulatory support in the field of mental health care is developed enough. However, the mechanisms are imperfect implementation of a number of laws and regulations relating to the protection of the rights of persons with mental disorders. This complicates the process of legal regulation of mental health care. Equally important is that society excludes people with mental disorders from their everyday life. Accordingly, it limits the ability of people with mental disabilities to get a job, to have a safe place to live, health care, family, friends, to be a full part of society or any social group. Because of social exclusion, as a result of stigmatiza-tion and discrimination people with mental health problems are even more depressed. They have reduced self-esteem, they are more limited in their actions and their rights, because they do not know them or can’t fight for them, as a society ignore the interests of people with mental disorders
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

Серія юридична. - 2013. - Випуск 2. – С. 436-441.Розглянуто поняття «ексгумація трупа», описані процесуальні підстави для її проведення та роль слідчого і судово-медичного експерта на всіх етапах проведення даної слідчої дії. The concept of «corpse exhumation» is considered, procedural grounds for its implementation and the role of the investigator and the forensic expert in all phases of given investigation action are described
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
