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
"Men never donate" : stereotypes and clichés in the Brenner novels by Wolf Haas
No full textDie vorliegende Diplomarbeit untersucht Klischees und Stereotype in den Brenner-Romanen von Wolf Haas. Das Ziel dabei ist darzulegen, welche Klischees und Stereotype in den literarischen Texten ästhetisch problematisiert und unterminiert werden. Der theoretische Teil der Arbeit behandelt drei wesentliche Aspekte: Zuerst wird die allgemeine Entwicklung der Kriminalliteratur beleuchtet; danach richtet sich der Blick auf Wolf Haas literarische Kunstsprache. Der dritte theoretische Abschnitt, der die methodologische Basis für die Analyse bildet, führt an die Konzepte des Klischees und des Stereotyps heran. Analysiert werden im Anschluss die ersten sechs Brenner-Texte: „Auferstehung der Toten“ (1996), „Der Knochenmann“ (1997), „Komm, süßer Tod“ (1998), „Silentium“ (1999), „Wie die Tiere“ (2001) und „Das ewige Leben“ (2001). Es wird zunächst untersucht, wie in den Texten gängige positive Klischees und Stereotype über Österreich sprachlich pointiert destruiert werden. Die einzelnen Klischees kumulieren dabei im Stereotyp ‚Österreicher‘. Im zweiten Analysekapitel wird aufgezeigt, inwiefern sich die Texte kritisch mit dem Genderdualismus auseinandersetzen. Daraus resultierend zeigt diese Arbeit auf, dass die Texte Gesellschaftskritik üben, die sich hinter der kunstvoll gestalteten Literatursprache des Autors verbirgt.This diploma thesis examines clichés and stereotypes in the Brenner novels written by the Austrian author Wolf Haas. The aim of this thesis is to show which clichés and stereotypes are problematized and undermined by the texts. The theoretical part deals with three main aspects: The first aspect elaborates on the general development of crime literature; the second aspect focuses on the author‘s artistic literary language. In the third and last theoretical section, the concepts cliché and stereotype are introduced in order to form a methodological basis for the succeeding analysis. The analysis covers the first six texts revolving around Detective Simon Brenner: "Resurrection" (1996), "The Bone Man" (1997), "Come, Sweet Death" (1998), "Silentium" (1999), "Like the Animals" (2001) and "Eternal Life" (2001). In the first step, the analysis focuses on how positive clichés and stereotypes about Austria are destroyed by the authors text strategy, which is based on Haas artistic use of language. On top of that, the analysis shows how these individual clichés accumulate into the stereotype 'Austrian'. In the second step, the analysis reveals that the texts criticize the system of gender dualism. As a result, this thesis shows that the texts contain social criticism, which is hidden in the artistic literary language of the author Wolf Haas.vorgelegt von Doris BundAbweichender Titel laut Übersetzung des Verfassers/der VerfasserinDiplomarbeit Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz 2021 3.214Zusammenfassungen in Deutsch und Englisc

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
