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
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

No full textDissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Arquitetura apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.Compreender a crise disciplinar contemporânea em Arquitetura é fundamental para o entendimento dos processos que criaram o atual problema da aferição de Valor (Abreu, 2007) e Sustentabilidade (Rosmaninho, 2014) nesta disciplina. Se é verdade que, por um lado, a perceção humana perante o próprio ato de habitar se tem vindo a alterar devido ao conhecimento científico e ao desenvolvimento filosófico da ética ambiental, ecológica e biológica; também é verdade que os fenómenos culturais, ontológicos e poéticos são tão indissociavelmente importantes para a compreensão desta crise do habitar quanto os de ordem fenomenológica, científica e técnica (Van der Ryn, 1996).
Deste modo este trabalho procura, na sua componente teórica, explorar os mais recentes e relevantes conteúdos para o estabelecer de uma abordagem operativa e contemporânea à Arquitetura, na especificidade da tarefa de reabilitação e do tema da Vilegiatura (Pires, 2013). Já na sua componente prática procurar-se-á uma leitura dos padrões e linguagens dos fenómenos (Alexander, 1977) que estruturam o habitar poético (Heidegger, 1951) desta qualidade sem nome (Alexander, 1979) que é inerente à função específica da Arquitetura no seu âmbito interdisciplinar.
Propondo um método disciplinar de interpretação integral do habitar, procura-se assim contribuir para o estudo da operatividade dos conceitos matriciais destes autores testando-os, entre o que os une e distingue, na sua aplicação ao projeto de uma escola-hotel para o ensino superior em Hotelaria na Quinta do Botelho em São Miguel, fundada nos valores de desenvolvimento sustentável de Adequação, Adaptação e Eficiência, do paradigma de Edifício Vivo de Rosmaninho (2014).ABSTRACT: Understanding the contemporary disciplinary crisis in Architecture is fundamental to begin to fathom the processes which have created the current problem of defining value (Abreu, 2007) and sustainability (Rosmaninho, 2014) within the discipline. If it is true that, on one hand, human perception itself has changed regarding the very act of inhabiting due to the most recent scientific knowledge but also to the development of bio/ecocentrism and environmental ethics in philosophy and politics; it is also true that cultural, ontological and poetic phenomena are just as indissociably important for the solution of this crisis of inhabiting as those of phenomenological, scientific and technical order (Van der Ryn, 1996).
Henceforth, in this work we seek to theoretically explore the most recent and relevant content to establish an operative and contemporary approach to Architecture, in the specificity of the rehabilitation task and the Vilegiatura theme (Pires, 2013). In its practical component, we will seek a reading of the phenomena, patterns and languages of the place (Alexander, 1977) which structure and allow the poetic inhabiting to unfold (Heidegger, 1951) from the quality-without-a-name (Alexander, 1979) which is inherent to Architecture in its interdisciplinary scope as human experience.
Advocating a disciplinary method of integral interpretation of the dwelling concept, we seek therefore to contribute to the study the operativity of these authors conceptual matrixes, testing their complementarity and exploring their main differences and similarities. All that shall take place under the context of a superior education hotel-school rehabilitation project for the Quinta do Botelho estate in São Miguel, Azores, Portugal, rooted in the sustainable development values of Adequacy, Adaptivity and Efficiency from Rosmaninho’s living-building paradigm.N/
