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
Tradução pedagógica: a influência de textos paralelos em atividades tradutórias no contexto de ensino-aprendizagem de língua estrangeira
Get PDFDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2014.Esta pesquisa faz uma triangulação entre as áreas dos Estudos da Tradução, do Ensino de Línguas Estrangeiras (LE) e do Jornalismo, tendo como objetivo propor uma prática de tradução que desenvolva habilidades de comunicação intercultural em alunos de LE. À luz de algumas ideias do chamado funcionalismo alemão (NORD, 2009) e na interface entre a tradução e o jornalismo (ZIPSER, 2002), aplica-se um exercício de tradução de caráter pedagógico com duas turmas de Letras Alemão (com nível intermediário-avançado) na graduação da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. O exercício inclui para além da tradução de uma notícia online do alemão ao português do Brasil, o aporte de textos paralelos de teor também jornalístico, em língua alemã e em português do Brasil, que servem como material de apoio para os alunos-tradutores. Sua influência ao longo das três etapas tradutórias desse exercício é examinada e avaliada por meio da aplicação posterior de questionários e da análise predominantemente qualitativa das traduções dos alunos. Ao produzir um texto novo, na forma de uma tradução do texto alemão para sua língua materna, com o auxílio de leituras paralelas sobre o mesmo fato em ambas as línguas, os alunos se deparam com a variação de enfoques que os textos podem apresentar em cada idioma, pois se assume que cada texto está inserido em seu entorno cultural e institucional (ESSER, 1998) e que deve respeitar certos fatores intra- e extratextuais. Evidencia-se, por meio da aplicação desse projeto da pesquisa, que, ao longo das três etapas tradutórias, os alunos, guiados por um novo propósito por eles escolhido, se desprendem da tradução das palavras e se concentram na produção de traduções que fazem sentido para o suposto leitor final. Os alunos se tornam intermediadores culturais e se conscientizam de que não se pode separar a língua de seu(s) aspecto(s) cultural(ais).Zusammenfassung : Diese Arbeit stellt eine Dreiecksverbindung zwischen den Bereichen Übersetzungswissenschaften, Fremdsprachenunterricht und Journalismus her und hat als Ziel, eine Übersetzungspraxis vorzuschlagen, mit der man interkulturelle Kommunikationsfähigkeiten bei Schülern entwickeln kann. Mit Hilfe einiger Leitpunkte des sogenannten deutschen Funktionalismus (NORD, 2009) und der Berührungspunkte zwischen Übersetzung und Journalismus (ZIPSER, 2002), wird eine pädagogische Übersetzungsübung bei zwei Germanistik-Studienklassen (mittleres-fortgeschrittenes Sprachniveau) der Bundesuniversität von Santa Catarina angewandt. Die Übung beinhaltet sowohl eine Übersetzung einer Online-Zeitungsnachricht vom Deutschen ins Brasilianische als auch journalistische Paralleltexte in deutscher und brasilianischer Sprache als Hilfsmittel für die Studenten. Der Einfluss dieser Texte wird im Laufe von drei Übersetzungsetappen untersucht und anhand von Fragebögen und einer überwiegend qualitativen Analyse der Übersetzungen der Studenten bewertet. Wenn die Deutschstudenten, mit Hilfe von Paralleltexten über dasselbe Ereignis in beiden Sprachen, einen neuen Text in Form ihrer Übersetzung in ihrer Muttersprache schreiben, stoßen sie auf die Perspektivenverschiebung, welche die Texte in jeder Spache aufweisen können. Denn jeder Text ist von einem kulturellen und institutionellen Rahmen umschlossen (ESSER, 1998) und sollte gewisse textinterne und -externe Faktoren beachten. Anhand dieses Projektes wird bewiesen, dass die Studenten sich im Laufe der drei Übersetzungsetappen, geleitet von einem neuen, von ihnen definierten Zweck, von einer wortwörtlichen Übersetzung lösen und sich auf eine Texterstellung konzentrieren, die für ihren Leser Sinn macht. Die Studenten werden zu kulturellen Vermittlern und es wird ihnen bewusst gemacht, dass man Sprache nicht von ihren kulturellen Aspekten trennen kann
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
