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
Futbol programlarının taraftar üzerindeki etkisi: Beyaz futbol ve serbest vuruş örneği
No full textÇağımızda teknolojinin gelişmesini takiben kitle iletişim araçları büyük gelişmeler kaydetmiştir. Bu araçların gelişmesi birçok alanda çeşitli gelişmelere de sebep olmuştur. Örneğin spor dalları içerisinde en çok sevilen futbol, kitle iletişim araçları ile daha popüler ve bilinen hale gelmiştir. Ancak televizyonda yer alan futbol programlarında kullanılan dil ve üslup kimi zaman çeşitli eleştirilere sebep olmakta, topluma kötü örnek olduğu iddia edilmektedir. Bu tez çalışmasında kitle iletişim araçlarından biri olan TV’deki futbol programlarından Beyaz Futbol ve Serbest Vuruş adlı programlar incelenmiştir. Aynı zamanda sosyal medya ve televizyon performansları gözlemlenerek bir anket çalışması uygulanmış, bunun sonuçları üzerinde durulmuştur.In our age of mass communication tools following the development of technology has made great advances. The development of these tools has led to various improvements in many areas. For example, in the most popular sports are soccer, the mass media have become more popular and known. But the language and style used in the field of football programs on television where sometimes cause various criticism is claimed to be a bad example for society. This thesis work in the football program on TV, one of the mass media called White Football Free Kicks programs are examined. At the same time social media and television performances have been applied observing a survey has focused on the consequence
The analysis of Nepotism, Cronyism and Patronage tendencies in the context of institutionalization perception
No full textKayırmacılık, başta nepotizm, kronizm ve patronaj olmak üzere farklı türleri ile var olan bir uygulamadır. Kayırmacılığı, "birey, grup, örgüt ve devlet düzeyinde yıllardır süregelen bir uygulama" olarak nitelendirmek mümkündür. Pekçok bireyin şikâyetçi olduğu ve bir o kadar da şikâyetçi olan pekçok bireyin, bizzat bu işin öznesi olduğu söylenebilir. İnsanların bu uygulamalarda işin öznesi olmaları, bu uygulamaları dile getirmekten uzaklaşmalarına, çözüm üretmelerine ve üzerine araştırmalar yapmalarına engel olmaktadır. Kayırmacılık uygulamalarının aynı düzeyde varlığını sürdürmesi, aksi yönde bir eğilim görülmemesi neticesinde, kayırmacılığa bir çözüm önerisi getirme amacı ile bu çalışmanın çıkış noktası oluşmuştur. Kayırmacılığı önlemenin yolunun kurumsallaşmadan geçtiği görüşü ile de araştırmanın temel amacı; "Kurumsallaşma ile kayırmacılık arasında bir ilişki var mıdır?" ve "Kurumsallaşma, kayırmacılık uygulamalarına bir çözüm müdür?" soruları ile şekillenmiştir. Araştırma, Bornova Belediyesi çalışanları üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiş ve veriler anket yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Anket formunda, çalışanların kurumsallaşma algıları ile birlikte nepotizm, kronizm ve patronaj algıları ölçülmüştür. Verilerin analizleri kısmında, güvenilirlik analizi, geçerlilik analizi, frekans analizi, faktör analizi, one sample t test, bağımsız örneklem t test, tek yönlü ANOVA testi, korelasyon analizi ve çoklu regresyon analizlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Analizler sonucunda, kurumsallaşma ile kayırmacılık arasında bir ilişki olduğuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca kurumsallaşma ile nepotizm, kronizm ve patronaj arasında negatif yönde anlamlı bir ilişkiye ulaşılmıştır. Analizler neticesinde cinsiyete bağlı olarak da kadın çalışanların kayırmacılık algılarının erkek çalışanların kayırmacılık algılarından düşük olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler sonucunda denebilir ki; kurumsallaşma, kayırmacılık uygulamalarına bir çözüm niteliği taşımaktadır. Kayırmacılığı önleyebilmek adına bireyler ve örgütler kurumsallaşmaya önem vermelidirler.Favoritism is an implementation with different kinds notably nepotism, cronyism, and patronage. It is possible to describe favoritism as "continuous implementation on individual, group, organization and government". It can be said that many individuals are complaining and also many of these complaining individuals are subject to this concept. People being the subject of these implementations prevent themselves to solve this problem, research this concept and voice freely. The starting point of this study is that favoritism is still continuing its own existence among institutions and that no one is offering a solution. With the opinion of institutionalization might prevent favoritism, the aim of this study took its final form with the questions "Is there a relationship between institutionalization and favoritism?" and "Is institutionalization a solution for implementations of favoritism?" This study has been conducted on employees of the Municipality of Bornova and the data has been gathered via surveys. In the survey forms, employees' perception of institutionalization has been measured among with the perceptions of nepotism, cronyism, and patronage. While analyzing the data, reliability tests, validity tests, frequency analysis, factor analysis, one sample t-test, independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis have been conducted. As a result of the analysis, it can be said that there is a correlation between institutionalization and favoritism. Also, there is a significant negative correlation between institutionalization and nepotism, cronyism and patronage. In consequence of analyzes, it is seen that in context of gender, female employees' perception of favoritism is low comparing to male employees. With the data obtained, it can be said that institutionalization is a solution for favoritism. In order to prevent favoritism, both individuals and organizations should give importance to institutionalization
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
