The Informal Sector and Economic Growth of South Africa and Nigeria: a Comparative Systematic Review
Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity Review The Informal Sector and Economic Growth of South Africa and Nigeria: A Comparative Systematic Review Ernest Etim and Olawande Daramola * Department of Information Technology, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, P.O. Box 652, South Africa; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 August 2020; Accepted: 10 October 2020; Published: 6 November 2020 Abstract: The informal sector is an integral part of several sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries and plays a key role in the economic growth of these countries. This article used a comparative systematic review to explore the factors that act as drivers to informality in South Africa (SA) and Nigeria, the challenges that impede the growth dynamics of the informal sector, the dominant subsectors, and policy initiatives targeting informal sector providers. A systematic search of Google Scholar, Scopus, ResearchGate was performed together with secondary data collated from grey literature. Using Boolean string search protocols facilitated the elucidation of research questions (RQs) raised in this study. An inclusion and exclusion criteria became necessary for rigour, comprehensiveness and limitation of publication bias. The data collated from thirty-one (31) primary studies (17 for SA and 14 for Nigeria) revealed that unemployment, income disparity among citizens, excessive tax burdens, excessive bureaucratic hurdles from government, inflationary tendencies, poor corruption control, GDP per capita, and lack of social protection survival tendencies all act as drivers to the informal sector in SA and Nigeria. Several challenges are given for both economies and policy incentives that might help sustain and improve the informal sector in these two countries. -
Researcher ID/Publons – 2019 Instructions
Researcher ID/Publons – 2019 Instructions ResearcherID is has now been integrated into the Publons platform: https://publons.com/account/login/. Publons is similar to researcher ID and is a platform which records, verifies, and showcases peer review contributions of researchers. Publons information integrates with Web of Science or records imported from ORCID, EndNote or manual uploads and allows you to track citations to your research outputs that are indexed in Web of Science. Please note that publications that have been manually entered into your Publons from journals outside of Web of Science will not track your citation metrics. Your Account Existing Account If you already have an account for ResearcherID, or Web of Science, you can login at https://publons.com/account/login/ using the same username and password. The publications you previously added into ResearcherID have automatically be added into your Publons account. Create a New Account If you do not already have a ResearcherID, create a Publons account here: https://publons.com/account/register/. You will receive a ResearcherID overnight from Publons that you will be able to use to attach to your publications in Web of Science. Adding Publications Once logged into your account you can load your publications by importing them from Web of Science, ORCID account, EndNote Library or manually using identifiers such as DOI numbers. (Note that citation metrics won't be tracked for records that do not appear in Web of Science). Loading Web of Science publications Select “Publications” under My Records then select “Import Publications” Publons will automatically search Web of Science when you select “Import Publications” for publications that match the email addresses and publishing names you listed in your profile. -
4 Google Scholar-Books
Scholarship Tools: Google Scholar Eccles Health Sciences Library NANOS 2010 What is Google Scholar? Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research. Features of Google Scholar • Search diverse sources from one convenient place • Find articles, theses, books, abstracts or court opinions • Locate the complete document through your library or on the web • Cited by links you to abstracts of papers where the article has been cited • Related Articles links you to articles on similar topics Searching Google Scholar You can do a simple keyword search as is done in Google, or you can refine your search using the Advanced Search option. Advanced Search allows you t o limit by author, journal, date and collections. Results are ranked by weighing the full text of the article, where it is published, who it is written by and how often it has been n cited in other scholarly journals. Google Scholar Library Links Find an interesting abstract or citation that you wish you could read? In many cases you may have access to the complet e document through your library. You can set your preferences so that Google Scholar knows your primary library. Once this is set, it will determine whether your library can supply the article in Google Scholar preferences. You may need to be on campus or logged into a VPN or a Proxy server to get the full text of the article, even if it is in your library. -

The authors did not include important databases such as PsycInfo and the Educational Resources Information Centre. Also, pubmed should have been used rather than medline. Finally, the authors did not even attempt to search google scholar for grey literature. The the study only included 10 papers and 6 were on multiple countries which was one of the exclusion critera. http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ REVIEWER Graham Thornicroft KCL, UK REVIEW RETURNED 06-Dec-2019 GENERAL COMMENTS MJ Open: Social factors associated with chronic non-communicable disease and comorbidity with mental health problems in India: a scoping review on October 2, 2021 by guest.

Creating and Managing a Researcherid Account
Creating and Managing a ResearcherID Account Fernando Torres Creating and Managing a ResearcherID Account As previously discussed, the rapid growth of scientific publications has led to an overload of information in specialized search engines. The problem with this rapid growth is the vast number of documents available for a particular topic and the authors' names. It is not strange that many authors can have the same name as an everyday occurrence, and there is also the problem of identity theft on platforms such as ResearchGate or Google Scholar. Thus, platforms such as ResearcherID have emerged to provide a unique identification number for researchers regardless of their current affiliation or name. 2 of 34 Creating and Managing a ResearcherID Account ResearcherID is a freely available resource for the global, multi-disciplinary scholarly research community. After registering, authors are assigned an individual ID number that stays with them throughout their careers, regardless of name changes or changes in institution affiliations. This system is used on Web of Science and other platforms with compatible IDs. ResearcherID differentiates authors with similar names and provides author profiles that further distinguish the authors and their professional and academic careers. 3 of 34 Creating and Managing a ResearcherID Account The platform allows creating an online profile to showcase the author's publication history and scholarly work, thus assuring an accurate record of output and attribution. It also provides a gateway for colleagues to quickly locate published work and identify a potential collaborator. To make the ResearcherID more inclusive globally, it includes ORCID in its system. ORCID provides a profile that helps solve author name ambiguity like ResearcherID and retrieves research products from university repositories, allowing integration with other profiles such as Scopus. -

AN INTRODUCTION to GOOGLE SCHOLAR Randy L
AN INTRODUCTION TO GOOGLE SCHOLAR Randy L. Miller Graduate Research Assistance Librarian September 2013 434-592-3096 [email protected] What does Google Scholar include? Google Scholar www.scholar.google.com provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research. (Important note: If you are doing a comprehensive review of the literature, you should always check other sources such as Summon and discipline-specific databases rather than relying solely on Google Scholar.) Google Scholar only contains citation references to books, journal articles, and other resources, not general websites like the Google Search engine. It is more complete in the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and medicine) literature. It is also fairly comprehensive in the Social Sciences (such as Education and Counseling). Has the fewest indexed articles in the Humanities, including Religion and Biblical Studies. (See the “Metrics” link at the top to show the major disciplines and the most highly indexed journals in each discipline.) It also tends to include more recent literature rather than pre-1990 literature because this older literature has often never been digitized and put on the web. Although it contains patent records, court cases, and legal documents, we will not be discussing those in this handout. What are some advantages of using Google Scholar? 1. In addition to showing resources like journal articles in our subscription databases, it also shows free “open access” and gray literature items (like conference proceedings, organization white papers, etc.) found on the web.
