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

Traditional infant care practices of mothers with 6-12 month-old infants in Turkey
266-274The purpose of this study is
to determine traditional methods applied by mothers, living in city centre of Kars, regarding infant
care. Data of this descriptive study were collected from region of three
family health centres located in city centre
of Kars (Turkey). Sample
group of the study is composed of 294 mothers. Two forms were used to collect
the data.
The average age of mothers is 28.10±6.20; and 49.32% received primary
education. Frequently-used traditional infant
care methods are 84.91%-practices for protecting from evil eye;
64.63%-swaddling practices; 54.54%-practices applied
for jaundice; and 54.11%-practices for shedding of the umbilical cord. Practices for protection from evil eye,
swaddling, practices applied for jaundice and practices for shedding of the umbilical cord are the most commonly used
fields
of traditional practices. Some of these practices can give harm to babies, and
some do not provide any benefit for them
