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

Δύο ανέκδοτα ψηφίσματα από τη Λάρισα
σ. 377-420
Ανάμεσα στις επιγραφικές μαρτυρίες που ανακαλύφθηκαν τα τελευταία χρόνια στη Λάρισα συγκαταλέγονται και δύο ψηφίσματα της πόλης αυτής, που παρουσιάζουν ιδιαίτερο ενδιαφέρον. Το πρώτο από αυτά είναι ένα προξενικό ψήφισμα, γραμμένο σε διάλεκτο, που αφορά έναν Μυτιληναίο και χρονολογείται στις αρχές του 2ου αιώνα π.Χ. Αντικατοπτρίζει τις σχέσεις που δημιουργήθηκαν πριν από την έναρξη του Δεύτερου Μακεδονικού Πολέμου και ανανεώθηκαν, στο πλαίσιο της αποδοχής των Ασκληπιείων της Μυτιλήνης, μεταξύ, αφενός του Κοινού των Θεσσαλών και των πόλεων που το αποτελούσαν και αφετέρου των Μυτιληναίων. Αυτό μας επιτρέπει να δούμε κάτω από νέο πρίσμα ένα πολύ γνωστό έγγραφο, το ψήφισμα της Μυτιλήνης για το Κοινό των Θεσσαλών IG XII Suppl., 3 και να εμπλουτίσουμε την ιστορία των σχέσεων μεταξύ των δύο μερών, σχέσεις οι οποίες διατηρήθηκαν έως την εποχή του Αυγούστου, όπως γνωρίζουμε από τμήματα ψηφισμάτων προς τιμήν του Μυτιληναίου Ποταμώνα, γιου του Λεσβώνακτος. Το δεύτερο ψήφισμα από τη Λάρισα, γραμμένο στην κοινή, αφορούσε δυο πολίτες από τη Χαλκίδα, στην Εύβοια, και θα πρέπει να τοποθετηθεί χρονολογικά πάνω από έναν αιώνα αργότερα, γύρω στο 70 π. Χ.· καταδεικνύει τη διαδικασία σύμφωνα με την οποία ένας ξένος, που είχε την προξενία από το Κοινό των Θεσσαλών, μπορούσε να αποκτήσει, ύστερα από αίτημά του, την ιδιότητα του πολίτη μιας πόλης-μέλους αυτού του Κοινού.Athanasios Tziafalias, Bruno Helly
Two Unpublished Decrees from Larisa
p. 377-420
Among the epigraphical documents found at Larisa in recent years, two of the city's decrees have a particular interest. The first, a proxenia decree for a Mytilinian, that can be dated to the earliest years of the 2nd c. BC, is in a dialect and reflects the relations that were established before the engagement of the Second Macedonian War and were renewed, for the admission of the Asclepieia of Mytilini, between the Thessalian Confederation and the cities that composed it on the one hand and the Mytilinians on the other. This casts new light on a well-known document, the Mytilini decree for the Thessalian Confederation IG XII Suppl., 3, and supplements the history of the relations between the two parties, which were prolonged up to the period of Augustus, as we know from the fragments of decrees in honour of the Mytilenian Potamon, son of Lesbonax. The second Larisa decree, which was voted for two citizens of Chalkis in Euboea and which is in koine, should be placed more than a century later, towards 70 BC; it shows the procedure by which a foreigner who had received the proxenia of the Thessalian Confederation could acquire, at his request, citizenship in a member city of this Confederation.Athanasios Tziafalias et Bruno Helly
Deux décrets inédits à Larissa
p. 377-420
Parmi les documents épigraphiques trouvés à Larissa ces dernières années, deux décrets de cette cité présentent chacun un intérêt particulier. Le premier, décret de proxénie pour un Mytilénien que l'on peut dater des toutes premières années du IIe siècle av. J.-C., est en dialecte et il porte un écho des relations qui ont été établies avant l'engagement de la Seconde guerre de Macédoine et renouvelées, pour l'acceptation des Asklépieia de Mytilène, entre la Confédération thessalienne et les cités qui la composaient d'une part et les Mytiléniens d'autre part. Cela permet d'éclairer d'un jour nouveau un document très connu, le décret de Mytilène pour la confédération thessalienne IG XII Suppl., 3, et d'enrichir l'histoire des relations entre les deux parties, qui se sont prolongées jusqu'à l'époque d'Auguste, comme on le sait par des fragments de décrets en l'honneur du Mytilénien Potamôn, fils de Lesbônax. Le deuxième décret larisséen, qui a été voté pour deux citoyens de Chalcis en Eubée et qui est en koiné , doit être placé plus d'un siècle plus tard, vers 70 av. J.-C. ; il montre selon quelle procédure un étranger qui avait reçu la proxénie de la Confédération thessalienne pouvait acquérir, à sa demande, la citoyenneté dans une cité membre de cette Confédération.Tziafalias Athanasios, Helly Bruno.

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
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
