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
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

Analysing the effect of social media addiction on marital life and relational happiness in married individuals
No full textBu araştırmada amaç; evli bireylerde sosyal medya bağımlılığının evlilik yaşamı ve ilişkisel mutluluğa etkisinin incelenmesidir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda 2023 yılı itibarıyla İstanbul ilinde yaşayan ve demografik özellikleri ve sosyal medya kullanım alışkanlıklarıyla çeşitlilik gösteren 175 kadın ve 88 erkek olmak üzere toplamda 263 gönüllü evli birey araştırmaya katılmıştır. Araştırmada veri toplama araçları olarak Demografik Bilgi Formunun yanında "Sosyal Medya Bağımlılık Ölçeği", "Evlilik Yaşamı Ölçeği" ve "İlişkisel Mutluluk Ölçeği" olmak üzere üç farklı ölçekten yararlanılmıştır. Söz konusu çalışmada ilişkisel tarama modeline başvurulmuştur. Elde edilen verilerin analizinde SPSS 25.0 programı kullanılmıştır. Analiz sürecinde katılımcıların ölçek düzeylerini ortaya koyan boyutlar arasındaki ilişkiler pearson korelasyon ve lineer regresyon analizleri aracılığıyla incelenmiştir. Araştırmaya katılım gösterenlerin tanımlayıcı özelliklerine göre ölçek düzeylerindeki farklılaşmaların incelenmesinde bağımsız gruplar t-testi, tek yönlü varyans analizi (Anova) ve post hoc (Tukey, LSD) analizlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Ayrıca etki büyüklüğünü hesaplayabilmek adına Cohen(d) ve Eta kare(η2) katsayıları kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgularda, evli bireylerde sosyal medya bağımlılığı ile evlilik doyumu ve ilişkisel mutluluk arasında zayıf negatif yönlü anlamlı bir ilişkinin olduğu görülmüştür. Sosyal medya bağımlılığı ile evlilik yaşamı arasında bulunan neden sonuç ilişkisine bakıldığında sonuç anlamlı bulunmuştur. Bu duruma göre sosyal medya bağımlılığı, evlilik yaşamı düzeyini azalttığı görülmüştür. Aynı şekilde sosyal medya bağımlılığı ile ilişkilerde mutluluk arasındaki neden sonuç ilişkisi incelendiğinde söz konusu analizin anlamlı olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Evli bireylerin sosyal medya bağımlılıkları demografik değişkenler açısından incelendiğinde;, sosyal medya toplam, meşguliyet, duygu durum düzenleme ve çatışma olarak tüm alt boyutların yaşa, evlilik süresine, sosyal medyayı kullanım zamanına ve gün içerisinde sosyal medya kullanım sıklığına göre anlamlı düzeyde farklılaştığı yine duygu düzenleme alt boyutunun eğitime, eşler arası yaş farkına ve eşle tanışma şekline göre ve çatışma alt boyutunun cinsiyete, tekrarlama hariç diğer alt boyutların ise çocuk sayısına göre anlamlı farklılık gösterdiği sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır. Evlilik yaşamı ve ilişkisel mutluluğun demografik özellikler açısından farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığına bakıldığında evli bireylerin tanımlayıcı özelliklerinin bu iki değişkeni etkilemediği görülmüş olup demografik değişkenler açısından anlamlı bir farklılık elde edilememiştir. Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgular söz konusu literatür eşliğinde yorumlanmış olup elde edilen sonuçlar eşliğinde önerilerde bulunulmuştur.The aim of this study is to examine the effect of social media addiction on marital life and relational happiness in married individuals. For this purpose, a total of 263 volunteer married individuals, 175 women and 88 men, living in Istanbul province as of 2023 and varying in demographic characteristics and social media usage habits, participated in the study. In addition to the Demographic Information Form, three different scales, namely "Social Media Addiction Scale", "Marital Life Scale" and "Relational Happiness Scale" were used as data collection tools. In this study, the relational survey model was used. SPSS 25.0 program was used to analyze the data obtained. In the analysis process, the relationships between the dimensions that determine the scale levels of the participants were examined through Pearson correlation and linear regression analyses. Independent groups t-test, one-way analysis of variance (Anova) and post hoc (Tukey, LSD) analyses were used to examine the differences in scale levels according to the descriptive characteristics of the participants. In addition, Cohen(d) and Eta square (η2) coefficients were used to calculate the effect size. The findings revealed that there was a weak negative significant relationship between social media addiction and marital satisfaction and relational happiness among married individuals. When the cause and effect relationship between social media addiction and marital life was examined, the result was found to be significant. Accordingly, social media addiction was found to decrease the level of marital life. Likewise, when the cause and effect relationship between social media addiction and happiness in relationships was examined, it was concluded that the analysis was significant. When the social media addictions of married individuals were examined in terms of demographic variables, it was concluded that all sub-dimensions as social media total, busyness, mood regulation and conflict differed significantly according to age, duration of marriage, duration of social media use and daily frequency of social media use, again, the emotion regulation sub-dimension differed significantly according to education, age difference between spouses and the way of meeting the spouse, the conflict sub-dimension differed significantly according to gender, and the other sub-dimensions except repetition differed significantly according to the number of children. When it was examined whether marital life and relational happiness differed in terms of demographic characteristics, it was seen that the descriptive characteristics of married individuals did not affect these two variables and no significant difference was obtained in terms of demographic variables. The findings obtained from the study were interpreted in the light of the literature and suggestions were made in the light of the results obtained
Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn 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.
