Scientometrics and Communication Theory:
A theory of citations should not consider cited and/or citing agents as its sole subject of study. One is able to study also the dynamics in the networks of communications. While communicating agents (e.g., authors, laboratories, journals) can be made comparable in terms of their publication and citation counts, one would expect the communication networks not to be homogeneous. The latent struc...
متن کاملDesigning theoretically-informed implementation interventions
Clinical and health services research is continually producing new findings that may contribute to effective and efficient patient care. However, the transfer of research findings into practice is unpredictable and can be a slow and haphazard process. Ideally, the choice of implementation strategies would be based upon evidence from randomised controlled trials or systematic reviews of a given ...
متن کاملDesigning theoretically-informed implementation interventions: Fine in theory, but evidence of effectiveness in practice is needed
The Improved Clinical Effectiveness through Behavioural Research Group (ICEBeRG) authors assert that a key weakness in implementation research is the unknown applicability of a given intervention outside its original site and problem, and suggest that use of explicit theory offers an effective solution. This assertion is problematic for three primary reasons. First, the presence of an underlyin...
متن کاملImproving communication about cancer screening: moving towards informed decision making.
For decades, public communications about cancer screening have used persuasive techniques with the aim of maximising the number of people being screened. However, perspectives have changed more recently to acknowledge that screening can lead to harm as well as benefit, and that it is important for service users to consider both. For some types of cancer screening, there is professional contenti...
متن کاملTowards an information-theoretically safe cryptographic protocol
We introduce what –if some kind of group action exists– is a truly (information-theoretically) safe cryptographic communication system: a protocol which provides zero information to any passive adversary having full access to the channel. 1. The false algorithm, simple version Assume Alice wants to share a secret s, which we assume for simplicity is a non-zero rational number s = p/q ∈ Q⋆. For ...
