Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
We 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
We 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
The lien of lessor
ÖZET: Kira sözleşmesi, kiraya veren tarafından bir şeyin yalnızca kullanılmasını yahut kullanma ile birlikte ondan yararlanılmasını kiracıya bırakmayı, kiracının da bunun karşılığında kararlaştırılan kira bedelini ödemeyi üstlendiği sözleşme türüdür. Kira sözleşmeleri, Türk Borçlar Kanunu’nda “Genel Hükümler”, “Konut ve Çatılı İşyeri Kiraları”, “Ürün Kirası” olarak üç ayrım altında incelenmiştir. Kiraya Verenin Hapis Hakkı, Türk Borçlar Kanunu’nun “Genel Hükümler” bölümündeki 336 ile 338. maddeleri arasında düzenlenmiştir. Türk Borçlar Kanunu’nun 336. maddesine göre kiraya veren hapis hakkını, kiralanan taşınmazda bulunan ve kiralananın döşenmesine veya kullanılmasına yarayan taşınır eşya üzerinde kullanabilecektir. Kiraya verenin sahip olduğu hapis hakkı, kural olarak kiracıya ait taşınır eşya üzerinde kullanılabilecek olup, belirli şartlar altında alt kiracı yahut kiralanan taşınmazda bulunan üçüncü kişiye ait taşınır eşya üzerinde de kullanabilir.ABSTRACT: The lease agreement is a type of contract that the lessor make available that the lessee only has to use something, or that it is both used and utilized and against this the lessee pays the rental price agreed. The lease agreement has been examined under three different distinctions as "General Provisions", "Housing and Roofed Workplace Rentals" and "Product Rentals" in the Turkish Code of Obligations. The termination of The Lien of Lessor has been regulated in the “General Provisions” section of the Turkish Code of Obligations between the provisions of Articles 336 and 338. According to Article 336 of the Turkish Code of Obligations, the lien of lessor for the use of the property shall be exercised on the movable property of the leased real property and for the laying or use of the leased real property. The lien of lessor can, in principle, be exercised on movable property belonging to the lessee. However, under certain circumstances it may also be used on the sublessee or on the movable property of the third party in the leased real property
