    本論文主要探討高等教育的過度教育之情形以及薪資的關係,研究對象為台灣地區大學畢業後一年的專職工作者。過去多以著重在分析過度教育人數之比例和過度教育與薪資的關係,而判斷是否為過度教育的衡量方式多種,各有優缺點,故本研究以Jensen(2003)的所得面方式衡量,則以潛在薪資與實際薪資的差距做為過度教育的程度指標,再進一步探討過度教育程度之分配差異。 實證結果有以下重要發現:(一)學校類型以技職體系畢業生的薪資表現較差,在所得面上過度教育程度也最高。(二)全部樣本上,過度教育確實對薪資產生負面影響,且隨著學校類型的不同,過度教育對薪資的影響幅度也不同。但男性樣本上,對於過度教育較無顯著情形。(三)而性別會影響薪資,以全部樣本而言,女性薪資顯著低於男性,但以Jensen過度教育指標,男女不存在過度教育程度差異。(四)在校的學習變數會影響薪資也會造成過度教育程度的差異,以科技領域薪資最高,但過度教育程度也最為嚴重。The main purpose of this thesis is to analyze the relationship between over-education and wage in higher education of Taiwan. We focus on the college graduates who graduated from college within one year in Taiwan. Most previous over-education studies concentrate on issues of incidence of over-education and its effect on wage. The over-education has been determined by several different measures. This article adopts the income ratio measure proposed by Jensen. It is a degree index of over-education that measures the gap between the potential and actual wage. Empirical findings from our analysis conclude: (1) polytechnic college graduates perform low in wage where their among four school types, degree of over-education tends to be higher than university graduates. (2) The over-education has negative impact on wage, and such effect varies by school type. However, such effect is not significant in male sample. (3) Wage differs by gender. However, it doesn’t make difference between male and female by Jensen over-education index. (4) The learning at school variables will significantly affect wage and the degree of over-education. College graduates in sciences tend to have the highest wage among different fields of graduates, however they also suffer the most serious degree of over-education

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    “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

    We 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

    We 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

    We 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
