Exploring the Factors Contributing to Fidelity in Literacy Interventions Data
No full textPrecision teaching is an evidence-based intervention designed to support learners to reach fluency in a target skill. While precision teaching has been shown to be effective in supporting the development of a range of core academic skills there is evidence to suggest that it is often delivered without intervention fidelity. The current mixed methods study collected both quantitative data, from questionnaires related to the fidelity of intervention delivery, and qualitative data, from participants' responses in semi-structured interviews. This data set includes the individual participant responses to fidelity questionnaires regarding their delivery of a PT intervention as well as the transcriptions of interviews regarding their experiences and the factors which impacted fidelity. Also included are the particpant information and consent forms as well as debriefing sheets.</span

Managing Change: An Organizational Outline for Reimagining the Digital Repository Infrastructure at The Ohio State University Libraries
No full textPoster at Open Repositories 2014, Helsinki, Finland, June 9-13, 2014Posters, Demos and Developer "How-To's"The Ohio State University Libraries is an example of an organization that had very early success implementing a campus-wide institutional repository. Organizationally, the Libraries, in partnership with the central IT division on campus, developed and implemented one of the early institutional repository success stories by focusing on the capture of content largely ignored by most academic institutional repository programs. However, as time has passed, the Libraries needs have extended beyond the scope of the institutional repository and the libraries present ability to support a wide range of digitized and born-digital content. Realizing that that were gaps within the Libraries’ current infrastructure and organization model, the Libraries has undertaken a self-reflective look at its organization, identifying gaps, and long-term opportunities, and developing a set of recommendations and roadmaps to ensure that the Libraries can meet the needs of the University community and its global partners. Given the size and complexity of the organization and its needs, this paper outlines the process the Libraries has undertaken to build the foundation and consensus necessary in implementing such radical changes.Reese, Terry Paul (The Ohio State University, United States of America)Warner, Beth Forrest (The Ohio State University, United States of America
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
