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
L'Espagne, en pleine crise de croissance
Spain's Growing Pains, by Ramón-Luis Acuna
The Spanish are not satisfied. Although they have just experienced the ten years that shook the history of their country, it has not gone far enough. After an exemplary political transition from dictatorship to democracy and following a remarkable economie evolution which led them out of autarky and protectionism and towards full participation in the construction of Europe, they want more change. What is propelling them forward ? The Spanish economy is developing rapidly ; its expansion rate is one of the highest in the West. What permitted this growth which has enabled Spain to move doser to its European partners ? Most probably « felipism », a very pragmatic socialism practiced by Felipe Gonzalez's team, who knew how to channel the vitality of Spanish society. However, this brought about many problems : services lag behind, the attachment to Europe has not gone smoothly. In short, Spain is now afflicted with growing pains.Les Espagnols ne sont pas satisfaits. Ils viennent pourtant de vivre les dix ans qui ébranlèrent l'histoire de leur pays, mais ce n'est pas encore assez : ils voudraient davantage de changements, après une transition politique exemplaire qui les a fait passer de la dictature à la démocratie, et après une transition économique remarquable qui les a fait sortir de l'autarcie et du protectionnisme pour participer de plein droit à la construction de l'Europe. Quelle est donc la force qui les pousse en avant ? L'économie espagnole se développe à toute vitesse avec un des taux d'expansion le plus élevé d'Occident. Qui a rendu possible cette croissance grâce à laquelle l'Espagne tente de se rapprocher de ses partenaires européens ? Sans doute le « féli-pisme », socialisme très pragmatique pratiqué par l'équipe de Felipe Gonzalez qui a su canaliser la vitalité de la société civile espagnole. Mais beaucoup de problèmes en découlent : les services ne suivent pas, l'accrochage à l'Europe ne se fait pas sans certains à-coups ; en un mot, l'Espagne se trouve en ce moment en pleine crise de croissance.Acuna.

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
