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
Adelidium Tillyard 1918
No full textAdelidium Tillyard, 1918 Type species: Adelidium cordatum Tillyard, 1918 by original designation [Tillyard, 1918: 752]. Monotypic genus. Type stratum. New South Wales, Australia, Glenlee railway cutting, Anisian, Middle Triassic (247–242 Ma). This genus was included in the family Tenebrionidae without any comparison with tenebrionid taxa. Tillyard [1918] suggested that A. cordatum possibly closely related to some Ademosyne Handlirsch, 1906 (Archostemata: Ademosynidae) from the Upper Triassic Ipswich Coal Measures (Queensland, Australia). In fact, characters of wide and very convex single elytron of Adelidium with eight or nine visible striae without scutellary striole can be interpreted very widely. The taxon distinctly does not belong to the family Tenebrionidae, which is known reliably only from the Late Jurassic. Adelidium cordatum specially was not included in the fossil records [Kirejtshuk at al., 2008; Kirejtshuk, Ponomarenko, 2018; Nabozhenko 2019]. However Bao and Antunes-Carvalho [2020] still wrote that it is Tenebrionidae. Here we propose to interpret Adelidium cordatum as Coleoptera incertae sedis.Published as part of Nabozhenko, M.

Isomira Mulsant 1856
No full textGenus Isomira Mulsant, 1856 The studied specimen under consideration belongs to the genus Isomira of the tribe Alleculini and the subtribe Gonoderina based on the combination of the following characters: five abdominal ventrites (inner sternite and ventrite VIII are hidden, unlike Cteniopodini with externally visible sclerites in male and female), weakly serrate antennae (species of Cteniopodini are with filiform or moniliform antennae, while the majority of Alleculini have serrate antennae), simple penultimate tarsomere (the majority of Alleculina have lobed or bilobed penultimate tarsomere, but species of Gonoderina are with simple one). The specimen has not distinct rows of deep strial punctures or clear impressed striae unlike the majority of gonoderine genera. Only two genera have the mentioned above complex of characters: Isomira and Asiomira. The fossil specimen examined distinctly differs from Middle East species of the genus Asiomira by the subequal length of antennomeres 2 and 3.Published as part of Nabozhenko, M.

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
Menephiloides Fujiyama 1973
No full textMenephiloides Fujiyama, 1973 Type species: Menephiloides minensis Fujiyama, 1973 by original designation [Fujiyama, 1973: 378]. Monotypic genus. Type stratum. Omine, Japan, Hazegatani coal mine, Monomoki Formation, Carnian, Upper Triassic (235–221.5 Ma). This genus was originally included under question in the family Tenebrionidae. Fujiyama [1973] tried to compare the single elytron of M. minensis with those in Menephilus Mulsant, 1854 (Stenochiinae: Cnodalonini) and Tenebrio Linnaeus, 1758 (Tenebrioninae: Tenebrionini). In fact, the elytron of this species has 10 striae without scutellary striole, which is uncharacteristic for Tenebrionidae. Menephiloides minensis specially was not included in the fossil records [Kirejtshuk at al., 2008; Kirejtshuk, Ponomarenko, 2018; Nabozhenko, 2019]. However Bao and Antunes-Carvalho [2020] still wrote that it is Tenebrionidae. Here we propose to interpret Menephiloides minensis as Coleoptera incertae sedis.Published as part of Nabozhenko, M.

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
