Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
Author, publisher and bookseller : a tripartite synergy in Nigerian book industry
No full textThis work is about the roles of Author, Publisher and Bookseller in Book development in
Nigeria. The paper started by delving into the history of Book Publishing in Nigeria after
which it proceeded by defining who an author, a publisher, and a bookseller is and
expatiated on the indispensable roles of these key actors in Nigerian Book Industry and in
the emerging Information Society. Furthermore, the various constraints to book
development were identified while the paper advised on how the Book Industry can be
further promoted in Nigeria. However, the paper concluded and made recommendations
on how the Book sector can help in enhancing scholarship in the country
Mentorat et tutorat : des entretiens guidant les stagiaires aux dimensions (in)visibles du métier enseignant. Le cas des mentoring conversation studies (MCS)
No full textCette thèse traite de la complexité de la transmission d'un métier à autrui dans le contexte de la formation en alternance à l'enseignement vaudois et s'inscrit dans une perspective historico-culturelle (Vygotski 1934/1997) où l'appropriation de médiations en collaboration avec l'expert génère potentiellement du développement chez les novices. Nous appuyant sur différentes recherches relatives à l'analyse du discours (Balslev, 2015, 2016), l'étude des échanges discursifs entre mentors et stagiaires permet notamment d'identifier la nature des savoirs (Vanhulle, 2009) et les dimensions sur lesquelles l'attention des protagonistes se focalise (Durand, 2002). Ces dialogues fournissent également des traces permettant d'identifier les types de postures endossées par les formateurs (Hennissen et al., 2008 ). Ainsi, cette étude majoritairement qualitative à visée compréhensive analyse le contenu de trente entretiens menés entre mentors et stagiaires, afin de cerner l'évolution des échanges au fil du temps, de déterminer différents profils et d'analyser les liens existant entre certaines catégories, grâce aux scores Z et au coefficient de Pearson, outils empruntés à une approche quantitative

Mining e-mail content for author identification forensics
No full textWe describe an investigation into e-mail content mining for author identification, or authorship attribution, for the purpose of forensic investigation. We focus our discussion on the ability to discriminate between authors for the case of both aggregated e-mail topics as well as across different email topics. An extended set of e-mail document features including structural characteristics and linguistic patterns were derived and, together with a Support Vector Machine learning algorithm, were used for mining the e-mail content. Experiments using a number of e-mail documents generated by different authors on a set of topics gave promising results for both aggregated and multi-topic author categorisation
Quelles approches des textes réflexifs pour quelle conception du développement professionnel ?
No full textDans les formations à l’enseignement, la production de textes écrits ou oraux vise à soutenir le développement professionnel des étudiant·es suivant une démarche réflexive constituant une « (...) clé de voûte entre, d’une part, un réel vécu subjectivement qu’un langage reconfigure, et, d’autre part, l’intégration de ressources théoriques et scientifiques dans un discours académiquement pertinent » (Vanhulle, 2016, p.1). Ce texte nous fournit une occasion de creuser les liens entre le développement profession- nel et la production de textes écrits et oraux. Dans une perspective de littéracie universitaire (Pollet, 2014), et puisant dans les travaux récoltés lors des journées d’étude et de l’ouvrage collectif sous la thématique « Entre “Je” et “Nous” : textes académiques et réflexifs » (Balslev & Gagnon, 2019), nous répertorions les conceptions du développement professionnel et les manières dont elles s’articulent aux usages de l’écrit et de l’oral.In teacher training, the production of written or oral texts aims to support students' professional development through a reflective approach that constitutes a "(...) keystone between, on the one hand, a subjectively experienced reality that language reconfigures, and, on the other hand, the integration of theoretical and scientific resources into an academically relevant discourse" (Vanhulle, 2016, p.1). This text provides an opportunity to explore the links between professional development and the production of written and oral texts. From a perspective of academic literacy (Pollet, 2014), and drawing on the work collected during the study days and the collective work under the theme "Between "I" and "We": academic and reflective texts" (Balslev & Gagnon, 2019), we list conceptions of professional development and the ways in which they are articulated with the uses of writing and speaking
