Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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

La nueva sensibilidad define el rumbo de los artistas bohemios y militantes. La revista "Ideas y Figuras" (1909-1916)
No full textEsta comunicación se propone ver las tensiones que aparecen en las páginas de Ideas y Figuras (1909-1916) con relación al momento en que deja de circular; su cierre se produce casi al mismo tiempo en que Ortega y Gasset llega a la Argentina a dar sus primeras conferencias y a cambiar un modo de ser intelectual. Esas transformaciones también están relacionadas con el impacto de la Primera Guerra Mundial en los jóvenes con aspiraciones político-intelectuales y en el desplazamiento hacia otros intereses políticos por parte del elenco estable de la revista. Pese a estos cambios profundos en la cultura local, la revista continuó difundiendo a jóvenes promesas literarias, denunciando atropellos sociales, haciéndose eco de causas judiciales que tocaban a militantes ácratas y ocupando un espacio expectante en el movimiento anarquista
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
Journalism and anarchist journalists in Buenos Aires at the beginning of the 20th Century
Full text linkLa autora transita por el complejo mundo de las publicaciones anarquistas a principios de siglo xx; en especial de La Protesta, el diario de mayor circulación entre los militantes ácratas. En el análisis, se pone de manifiesto la importancia que para la divulgación del ideario tuvieron los jóvenes periodistas que combinaron compromiso político con profesionalización de la actividad.
A esto se suma el estudio de los cambios comunicacionales orientados a promover la lectura y a lograr la incorporación en tanto intelectuales en el mercado de bienes simbólicos del anarquismo.This paper studies the complex world of anarchist publications at the beginning of the xx century. The author focuses in particular in La Protesta, the journal with the greatest circulation among anarchist militants. The importance of young journalists who were able to combine a political commitment with a professionalization of the activity to spread anarchist ideas is highlighted.
In addition to this, the communicational transfomations oriented to promote reading and to achieve its incorporation as intellectuals in the symbolic goods market of anarchism.Facultad de Periodismo y Comunicación Socia
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
