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
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
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
Development of the diabetic foot ulcer evaluation scale for globalization
本研究の目的はインドネシアの研究者とともに糖尿病足潰瘍の治癒過程を評価するアセスメントスケールを開発することである。8名の創傷ケアの専門家(日本人4名、インドネシア人4名)を対象にノミナル・グループ法にて糖尿病足潰瘍のアセスメントに必要な項目を抽出し、スケール案を作成した。皮膚科医の助言を受け、項目を精選した。英語版のスケールを日本語に翻訳し、バイリンガルの皮膚科医が修正をした。
深さ、サイズ【実測法】、サイズ【スケール法】、炎症/感染、肉芽組織の割合、壊死組織のタイプ、壊死組織の割合、スラフの割合、浸軟、創縁の種類、トンネルの11項目が抽出され、0から98点で評価するスケールが提案された。We developed an assessment scale to evaluate healing process of diabetic foot ulcers with Indonesian researchers. We created a draft of the scale by extracting variables required for the assessment of diabetic foot ulcers by using the nominal group technique for 8 experts of wound care (4 Japanese experts and 4 Indonesian experts). We selected variables based on an advice from a dermatologist specialized in diabetic foot ulcers. The scale in English version was translated into Japanese version and corrected by a bilingual dermatologist.
We made a draft of the scale which has 11 variables (including depth, size, size scores, inflammation/infection, proportion of granulation tissue, type of necrotic tissue, proportion of necrotic tissue, proportion of slough, maceration, type of wound edge, and tunneling) and these variables are rated by score from 0 to 98.研究課題/領域番号:26861882, 研究期間(年度):2014-04-01 – 2017-03-31出典:「グローバル化を目指した糖尿病足潰瘍評価スケールの開発」研究成果報告書 課題番号26861882

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
Development of an assessment scale for diabetic foot ulcers using thermography
糖尿病性足潰瘍の治癒過程を明らかにするために、潰瘍の写真をスケッチし、言語化、概念化した結果、カテゴリ“深さ”“創縁”“壊死組織のタイプ”“壊死組織の割合”“炎症/感染”が抽出された。潰瘍は“深さ”が浅くなり“壊死組織の割合”と“創縁”の浸軟が減少し治癒した。このカテゴリを用いた評価スケールを作成した。
肉眼的に同定困難な骨髄炎のスクリーニング法を開発するために、サーモグラフィ所見を検証した結果、足関節まで皮膚温が上昇している場合に有意に骨髄炎合併の割合が高かった。糖尿病足潰瘍の評価には、サーモグラフィで骨髄炎をスクリーニングし、評価スケールの“感染/炎症”の骨髄炎を採点することが提案された。Photographs of ulcers were sketched, verbalized and conceptualized to clarify the healing process of diabetic foot ulcers. As a result, the following categories were extracted: "depth," "wound edge," "type of the necrotic tissue," "extent of necrotic tissue," and "inflammation/infection." Ulcers were found to become shallower in "depth," reduce the "extent of necrotic tissue" and maceration at the "wound edge," and heal. An assessment scale using these categories was prepared.
Thermographic findings were reviewed to develop a screening method for osteomyelitis difficult to grossly identify. The results showed that the rate of being complicated by osteomyelitis was significantly higher when skin temperatures, including those of the ankles, were increased. For evaluation of diabetic foot ulcers, it was suggested to screen osteomyelitis by thermography and score osteomyelitis of "infection/inflammation" on the assessment scale.研究課題/領域番号:23792580, 研究期間(年度):2011 – 2013出典:「皮膚温測定を用いた糖尿病性足潰瘍評価スケールの開発」研究成果報告書 課題番号23792580
