    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    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

    Mediterranean Hospitality in the Anonymous Polish Diary from the Year 1595 Summary The paper attempts to identify the concept of hospitality from the point of view of an anonymous 16-century Polish traveller and author of the report from a trip to southern Italy, Spain, and Malta (“Diariusz peregrynacji włoskiej, hiszpańskiej, portugalskiej”, 1595). The writer appreciates the Spanish hospitality while treating other Mediterranean nations, e.g. Italians,Turks or Jews – with reserve. The aim of the paper is to analyse the diary and to find out if the author’s opinion is really based on his experience or on some kind of national stereotypes. Moreover, the author of the paper tries to interpret the virtue of hospitality in light of religious duties, such as mercy for the poor or strangers, and to locate the author’s worldview in the culture of Christian Europe

    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
