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
STANDARD OF THE PROCESSING OF THE PERSONAL DATA DURING A VIDEOMONITORING OF EMPLOYEES’ WORKSPACE
No full textProtection of personal data is a challenge for Georgian and not only Georgian law and practice. The article analyzes the latest legal approaches, foreign literature and international case law using a comparative legal method. The paper specially focuses on the new Georgian law on Personal Data Protection, which came into force a few months ago and provides specific rules for video monitoring/video surveillance. There is no any judgements or decisions by the Georgian general courts on the regulation established by the new law and its problematic issues. Therefore, the present article analyzes the EU’s experience and the trends of its implementation in the Georgian reality. There are several decision of ECtHR concernin the processing of personal data through video monitoring of the employee’s workspace. These decisions are so important that they are mentioned in almost all modern legal literature. Therefore, the article overviews them and discusses Georgian legislation and legal practice in the light of the ECtHR’s case law.Protection of personal data is a challenge for Georgian and not only Georgian law and practice.

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
დამსაქმებლის ნდობის დაკარგვა, როგორც დასაქმებულის სამსახურიდან გათავისუფლების საფუძველი (რამდენიმე სასამართლო გადაწყვეტილებაზე დაყრდნობით)
Full text linkIn view of the fact that the employment relationships have been getting diverse and complex respective legal regulations are being required. The latest amendments to the Georgian Labor Code, which have implemented European regulations into Georgian legislation, considered several issues regarding the respective protection of employee's and employer's rights. One of the most significant and problematic issues in labor relations is related to the termination of the labor contract and its legal grounds. The article deals with the issue of labor contract termination when the legal ground of dismissal is the employer’s loss of trust in the employee. The loss of trust might be the result of the gross violation by an employee of his/her obligations; the violation by an employee of his/her obligations, if any of the disciplinary steps have already been taken against the employee during the last year; or other objective circumstances justifying the termination of an employment agreement. The article provides an overview of decisions rendered by the Supreme Court of Georgia. Moreover, it underlines, the role of trust in labor relationships and its role while termination of the labor contract. As a consequence of the analysis of the decisions, the following conclusion is outlined: in order to state that the employer had lost trust the employee, therefore had the right to dismiss the employee the respective court order in the criminal case against the employee should have existed.In view of the fact that the employment relationships have been getting diverse and complex respective legal regulations are being required.

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
