Uses and Misuses of Data

2018

Higher education is awash with data with more coming every year. Much of this is due to accountability reasons and growing interest from stakeholders (internal and external). New technologies have increasingly allowed more powerful analytics and deeper dives into data. However the increasing pressures and new technologies have brought significant questions on how data is used and its relevance. This chapter examines how data is used within higher education and an extended discussion of how it has been misused. The chapter concludes with three suggestions on how institutions can do to reduce the likelihood of the misuse of data and the role of institutional research could play in facilitatin…

Difusión internacional de los trabajos publicados en revistas biomédicas españolas. Un estudio cuantitativo del período 1980-1986

1990

Se investiga la proporción de trabajoa publicados en revistas biomédicas españolas y difundidos a través de MEDLARS, EMBASE, BIOSIS y SCISEARCH entre 1980 y 1986. Los resultados, se expresan mediante un indice de difusión {ID) aplicado a revistas y áreas temáticas. Sólo la quinta parte de loa trabajos publicados entre 1980 y 1986 por revistas biomédicas españolas se ha difundido internacionalmente (ID = 0.19). Además, el ID ha descendido desde 1980 (ID = 0.23) a 1986 (ID = 0.18). Sólo 4 publicaciones cuentan con un ID > 0.70 y otras cuatro con ID > 0.60 a lo largo del periodo. En diez casos el Indice de difusión fue nulo, a pesar de que las revistas correspondientes aparecían incluida…

Anne de Graville Translates Alain Chartier : Identifying the Manuscript Source in the Margins of B.N. fr. 2235

2020

An examination of the single manuscript of Anne de Graville’s Rondeau, a ‘translation’ of Alain Chartier’s La Belle dame sans mercy, as well as consideration of 1424 and Carl Wahlund’s 1897 critical edition reveals that Anne used several manuscripts and early printed editions in establishing the version of Chartier’s poem written in the margins of BN fr 2253. The base exemplar was most likely St. Petersburg, National Library of Russia MS fr. f° v. XIV. 0007, with variants found in BN fr 20026, BN fr 924, and the early printed editions.

How to Become an Author: The Poet Isa Asp and Her Childhood Fascination with Writing for Magazines

2021

In this article the author explores the early development of the identity as a writer of a Finnish-speaking poet Lovisa (or Isa) Asp (1853–1872). She wrote her lyrics in the Finnish language in the 1870s, and she is regarded as the first 19th-century female Finnish poet (whose works were published in Finnish). She began writing poetry (initially in Swedish) as a teenager and started her literary career as a contributor to children’s magazines. Asp began her studies at the Teacher Training College in Jyväskylä in autumn 1871 with the aim of working as an elementary school teacher, but she also dreamt of becoming an established writer someday. Unfortunately, her early death meant that most of…

Assessing Peer Review by Gauging the Fate of Rejected Manuscripts: the case of the Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation

2017

This paper investigates the fate of manuscripts that were rejected from JASSS-The Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation, the flagship journal of social simulation. We tracked 456 manuscripts that were rejected from 1997 to 2011 and traced their subsequent publication as journal articles, conference papers or working papers. We compared the impact factor of the publishing journal and the citations of those manuscripts that were eventually published against the yearly impact factor of JASSS and the number of citations achieved by the JASSS mean and top cited articles. Only 10% of the rejected manuscripts were eventually published in a journal that was indexed in the Web of Sci…

Memes y Políticas de Identidad. El poder de la risa en la cultura digital

2020

Una de las formas más arcaicas y evidentes de la comunicación es reír. En la cultura digital, las imágenes humorísticas, en concreto las satíricas, se unen a la sociedad de masas mediante la configuración de ideas e identidades. Durante el s. XIX, la identidad y el nacionalismo han sido dos caras de la misma moneda. Su representación por medio de símbolos e ideas siguen estando patentes en la actualidad. En el ámbito nacional, la identidad catalana no solo sigue teniendo una vinculación nacionalista propia del XIX, sino que ha devenido en un fenómeno de identidad propio unido asimismo al procés de independencia. Por eso mismo y con el objetivo de poner en relieve el poder de las imágenes hu…

Human Siglec-10 can bind to vascular adhesion protein-1 and serves as its substrate

2009

AbstractLeukocytes migrate from the blood into areas of inflammation by interacting with various adhesion molecules on endothelial cells. Vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) is a glycoprotein expressed on inflamed endothelium where it plays a dual role: it is both an enzyme that oxidizes primary amines and an adhesin that is involved in leukocyte trafficking to sites of inflammation. Although VAP-1 was identified more than 15 years ago, the counterreceptor(s) for VAP-1 on leukocytes has remained unknown. Here we have identified Siglec-10 as a leukocyte ligand for VAP-1 using phage display screenings. The binding between Siglec-10 and VAP-1 was verified by different adhesion assays, and this…

Complete coding nucleotide sequence of cDNA for the class II RT1.B beta I chain of the Lewis rat.

1991

We have established the first full length cDNA clone for the beta light chain of the MHC class II alpha, beta heterodimer (isotype RT1.B) of the rat. Clone pLR beta 118 was obtained from a self-primed lambda gt10 cDNA library of IFN-tau treated bone marrow-derived macrophages of the Lewis rat. Subcloning of pLR beta 118 into a transcription vector with subsequent in vitro transcription and translation using the reticulocyte lysate system in the presence of microsomes followed by immunoprecipitation with mAb OX6 and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed the intact RT1.B beta I-chain.

Dissemination of Spanish Social Sciences and Humanities Journals

2005

The presence of scholarly journals in international data bases promotes the dissemination of research results and also facilitates requests for specific articles or journals by end users. As scientists seek optimal visibility for their work and wish their results to be published in journals with high circulation, it is important to know which are the leading journals within each scientific area. This paper contains a bibliometric study of scientific journals in the areas of Social Sciences and Humanities that are currently published in Spain, together with information concerning their production and circulation in the different national and international bibliographical data bases, publishe…
