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
Teaching Turkish Republic revulotion history and Kemalism in primary education in Turkey (1981-2018)
No full textBu araştırma; Türkiye’de 1981 yılından itibaren temel eğitim ikinci kademe
okullarında (ortaokullarda) okutulmaya başlanmasından 2018 yılına kadar geçen
süreçte ilköğretim düzeyinde Türkiye Cumhuriyeti İnkılâp Tarihi ve Atatürkçülü
Dersi öğretimini konu almaktadır.
Araştırmanın amacı; 1981-2018 yılları arasında uygulanan ilköğretim T.C. İnkılâp
Tarihi ve Atatürkçülük dersi öğretim programlarını uygulandıkları tarih aralıkları,
programın genel yaklaşımı, dersin genel amaçları, konu içerikleri ve haftalık ders
saati miktarları boyutlarıyla; bu öğretim programlarına uygun olarak yazılan T.C.
İnkılap Tarihi ve Atatürkçülük ders kitaplarını ise içerik ve fiziksel görünüm
boyutlarıyla incelemek ve tarihsel süreç içerisinde geçirdikleri değişimi ortaya
koymaktır.
Bu araştırmada “genel tarama modeli” ve bir nitel araştırma yöntemi olan
“dokuman analizi” yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sürecinde Milli Eğitim
Bakanlığı tarafından yayınlanan öğretim programları ve bu programlara dayalı
yazılmış ders kitaplarının incelenmesinden elde edilen verilerin analizinde
“betimsel analiz” ve “içerik analizi” teknikleri kullanılmıştır.
Yapılan araştırma sonucunda 1981 yılından 2018 yılına kadar olan süreçte
öğretim programında on iki değişiklik gerçekleştirildiği; 1998 yılında dersin amaç
ve kapsamının en geniş boyuta ulaştığı, ancak 2005 yılından itibaren dersi amaç
ve kapsamının giderek daraldığı anlaşılmıştır. Derse ayrılan haftalık ders saati
vii
miktarının 2009-2010 yıllarında 3 saat, diğer dönemlerde 2 saat olarak
belirlenmiştir. 1998 yılında dersin hedef sayısı 49, amaç sayısı ise 216 iken, 2005
yılından itibaren kazanım sayıları giderek azalmıştır. Öğretim programlarında
Atatürkçülük ile ilgili konu ve kazanımlarının azalması ise dikkat çekici
orandadır. 1998 yılına kadar MEB tarafından hazırlanan T.C. İnkılâp Tarihi ve
Atatürkçülük ders kitapları okutulurken, bu tarihten sonra özel yayınevlerinin ders
kitapları da okutulmaya başlanmıştır. Araştırmada 16 farklı ders kitabı içerik ve
fiziksel yönlerden incelenmiştir. 1981-1998 yılları arasında basılan ders kitapları
genel olarak aynı özelliklere sahipken, 1998’den sonra yayınlanan ders
kitaplarının okuma metinleri, ünite hazırlık ve değerlendirme soruları ve soru
stilleri değişmiştir. Araştırma sonunda belirlenen sorunlara dayalı olarak
araştırmacı tarafından ortaya konulan önerilere yer verilmiştir.This research examines Turkish Republic Revulotion History and Kemalism
course that has been lectured since 1981 in the secondary level (secondary school)
of the basic education. The aim of the research is to represent the objectives,
content, weekly hours, date range that the course has been offered and general
approach of the curricula related to the course. Besides, examining the content and
physical changes that took place in the coursebooks that were developed on
aforementioned curricula is also among the aims of the research.
The research employs document analysis that is a qualitative research method to
examine the curricula provided by National Ministry of Education and
coursebooks that were developed on those curricula. The data analysis includes
descriptive and content analysis. The research results show that there were
changes in the curricula of the course twelve times between 1981 and 2018. While
the objectives and content of the course reached the maximum in 1998, they
gradually became narrow starting from 2005. The weekly number of hours for the
course were three in 2009 and 2010 while it was two in the other eras. While the
number of aims was 49 and attainments was 216 in 1998, the number of
attainments decreased since 2005. It is notable that the subject and attainments of
Kemalism decreased. The coursebooks prepared by National Ministry of
Education were used until 1998 and since then other coursebooks prepared by
private publishing companies were also used. In the research, sixteen different
coursebooks were examined in terms of content and physical aspects. While the
coursebooks that were published between 1981 and 1998 were similar, reading
passages, unit preparation and evaluation questions and questions types changed

This research was carried out using document analysis, one of the qualitative research methods. The data obtained as a result of the research were subjected to descriptive analysis in line with the determined themes. The research sample group consists of 59 master's theses obtained from the Council of Higher Education National Thesis Center within the scope of the subject. According to the results of the research, we see that the most thesis was prepared in 2019, and the most thesis was prepared by Gazi University students. According to the results of the theses in terms of other variables, the Institutes of Educational Sciences rank first as an institute, the Department of Primary Education ranks first as a department, and the Assistant Professor ranks first as a consultant. The methods used in the theses consist of quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods, respectively. Most studies were conducted with students, and the most commonly used data collection tools were tests and scales. The most frequently studied subject in master's theses is related to the use of methods, techniques and materials used in the courses. According to the results obtained from the research, some of the problems identified in the theses are as follows: The amount of weekly lesson hours in the Turkish Revolution History and Ataturkism course is insufficient, students have difficulty in understanding historical concepts, the physical conditions of schools are insufficient, and the curriculum content is extremely intense. The most frequently expressed suggestions in the theses are as follows: Different methods, techniques, and materials should be used in the course, the curriculum content of the course and the weekly course hours allocated to the course should be harmonized, and teachers should be given in-service training on various subjects
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
