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
Développement durable organisationnel : une revue narrative structurée des pratiques RSE, GDRH et modèles d’affaires
Sustainable development has emerged as a strategic imperative for both public and private organizations, especially in a context characterized by resource scarcity, growing climate-related challenges, and rising societal expectations regarding transparency, accountability, and ethical responsibility. This article presents a narrative and integrative literature review on the implementation of sustainable development within organizational settings, drawing on recent academic contributions and established conceptual frameworks. The analysis is structured around three main dimensions. The first concerns the integration of sustainability principles into organizational vision, strategy, and governance practices, highlighting the extent to which sustainability becomes embedded in decision-making and long-term orientation. The second dimension focuses on contingency variables that shape implementation, including organizational size, industry sector, institutional environment, and cultural dynamics, all of which significantly influence the scope and form of sustainable initiatives. The third dimension examines the managerial tools and mechanisms mobilized to operationalize sustainability, such as Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Sustainable Human Resource Management (SHRM), and the widely used Triple Bottom Line framework. Adopting a critical approach, the review underscores both the richness and fragmentation of existing studies, which often suffer from disciplinary silos and limited contextualization. It emphasizes the need to move beyond narrowly defined or purely normative perspectives in order to build more comprehensive, integrated, and context-sensitive approaches. Ultimately, the article calls for a renewed research agenda that can better support decision-makers in embedding sustainability at the core of organizational processes and performance management systems, thus reconciling economic viability with social equity and environmental stewardship.

Paper type: Narrative ReviewLe développement durable s’impose aujourd’hui comme une priorité stratégique incontournable pour les organisations publiques et privées, dans un contexte marqué par la raréfaction des ressources, la montée en puissance des enjeux climatiques et l’accroissement des attentes sociétales en matière de transparence et de responsabilité. Cette étude propose une revue narrative et intégrative de la littérature scientifique portant sur la mise en œuvre du développement durable dans les organisations, en s’appuyant sur des travaux académiques récents et des cadres conceptuels éprouvés. L’analyse est structurée autour de trois dimensions principales : d’abord, l’ancrage des principes de durabilité dans la vision, la stratégie et la gouvernance organisationnelle ; ensuite, l’identification des variables de contingence qui influencent les choix et modalités de mise en œuvre (taille, secteur d’activité, contexte institutionnel, culture organisationnelle) ; enfin, le recours aux instruments de gestion tels que la responsabilité sociétale des entreprises (RSE), la gestion durable des ressources humaines (GDRH) et le cadre du Triple Bottom Line. Inscrite dans une démarche critique, la revue souligne la richesse mais également la dispersion des travaux existants, marqués par des approches fragmentées et parfois contradictoires. Elle met en évidence la nécessité de dépasser les analyses sectorielles ou purement normatives, afin de proposer des lectures plus globales, intégrées et situées, capables de concilier impératifs économiques, exigences sociales et contraintes environnementales. L’article conclut sur la pertinence d’un agenda de recherche renouvelé, visant à mieux outiller les décideurs pour intégrer la durabilité au cœur des processus organisationnels et de leurs dispositifs de pilotage.

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

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
