Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
Pourquoi la France a-t-elle si peu de fondations ?
No full textComme son titre l’indique, cette contribution analyse les raisons de la désaffection française vis-à-vis des fondations, la forme associative étant par ailleurs bien développée et presque toujours choisie pour promouvoir des causes d’intérêt général. Comparativement à quelques pays de niveau de richesse équivalent, l’écart en termes de nombre de fondations répertoriées est impressionnant. Si les racines de cette situation plongent dans l’histoire, il reste à comprendre pourquoi la France n’a pas participé au renouveau des fondations remarqué dans plusieurs pays, à partir des années 80 principalement. En distinguant les fondations reconnues d’utilité publique, les fondations d’entreprise et les fondations abritées par la Fondation de France en particulier, l’auteur analyse les freins d’origine juridique et sociologique. Créer une fondation est trop souvent une démarche contraignante et coûteuse. Par ailleurs, les impulsions données par l’État vont de pair avec un contrôle plutôt inhibant, et l’appropriation de cette forme juridique par les acteurs de terrain peine à se faire.As the title indicates, this article looks at the reasons for the French lack of interest in foundations, a form of association that is well developed elsewhere and nearly always chosen for promoting public-interest causes. Compared with some other countries that have an equivalent level of wealth, the difference in terms of the number of registered foundations is striking. Although the roots of this situation lie deep in history, it remains to be explained why France has not taken part in the revival of foundations observed in several countries mainly since the 1980s. Identifying in particular the foundations recognized as having a public utility, corporate foundations, and foundations that come under the wing of the Fondation de France, the author examines the legal and sociological obstacles. The procedure for setting up a foundation is too often restrictive and costly. Government incentives go hand in hand with strict monitoring, and the actors in the field have been slow to adopt this type of institution
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
