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
Prassi, natura e società. L'impostazione di Richard Rorty
No full textThe text focuses on Richard Rorty’s approach from a philosophical-political perspective. It proves to be emblematic of postmodernity and at the same
time is the landing place of modernity. The human is condensed into social
practice. The exclusion of knowledge as representation and the primacy of
operations converge in a methodical relativism. Thus the justifiability of a
thesis in the presence of a community is not given by its intrinsic validity,
but on the basis of the beliefs shared therein
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
Bellis v. United States
No full textThe Supreme Court has recently ruled that a three-person partnership does not have a fifth amendment privilege with respect to its business records. It would appear from the Court\u27s reasoning that regardless of how small the partnership, individual partners can no longer refuse to produce partnership records which tend to incriminate them, thus leaving the single proprietorship as the only remaining protected business entity. This article will focus on the historical roots of the fifth amendment privilege as it relates to the documents of organized entities and will analyze the reasons for the steady erosion of the privilege which culiminated in the decision in Bellis v. United States, a decision neither logically necessitated by, nor consistent with prior decisions of the Court.
As will be pointed out, a test to determine when the privilege should apply had developed through the case law. This test focused on the degree of personal involvement between the individuals and the organization, rather than on the type of organization involved. Although the test has recently been confounded by the mechanical standard applied in Bellis, it is, in the opinion of the authors, still a viable means of determining the circumstances under which the basic constitutional protection of the fifth amendment will be either granted or denied
