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
Peirce and education: contemporary reflections in the spirit of a contrite fallibilist
The author of this essay draws out some of the most important implications of Peirce´s thought for the philosophy of education. In particular, he focuses on the deliberate cultivation of phenomenological attention, methodological (or heuristic) imagination, experiential realism, contrite fallibilism, and wide erudition as implications of Peirce´s texts. Especially in conjunction with phenomenological attention, he develops a notion of world, but a distinctively pragmatic conception of this highly ambiguous word. Then, in connection with this understanding of world, the author makes a case for the pragmatist reconstruction (or reconceptualization) of human experience. While the received view takes experience to be inherently and invincibly subjective, the reconstructed (or pragmatist) one takes experience to be a direct, yet mediated encounter with reality. Peirce´s thought drives in the direction of recognizing, in reference to education, the need for a recovery of the world and the reconstruction of experience. But it also prompts us to see just how important are a resolute fallibilism, heuristic imagination, and wide learning.El autor del artículo señala algunas de las implicaciones más importantes del pensamiento de Peirce para la filosofía de la educación. Concretamente, se centra en el cultivo deliberado de la atención fenomenológica, la imaginación metodológica (o heurística), el realismo experiencial, el falibilismo penitente, y la amplia erudición como implicaciones que se siguen de los textos escritos por Peirce. De modo especial, y en relación con la atención fenomenológica, desarrolla la noción de mundo, pero desde una perspectiva distintivamente pragmática en un mundo que resulta profundamente ambiguo. A continuación, y siguiendo con esta comprensión del mundo, el autor defiende la reconstrucción (o reconceptualización) pragmatista de la experiencia humana. Mientras la perspectiva que suele asumirse entiende que la experiencia es inherente e inevitablemente subjetiva, la perspectiva reconstruida (o la pragmatista) entiende que la experiencia consiste en un encuentro directo, aunque mediado, con la realidad. El pensamiento de Peirce avanza en la dirección de reconocer, en lo tocante a la educación, la necesidad de reactivar el mundo y de reconstruir la experiencia. Pero nos lleva también ver la importancia de un falibilismo resuelto, una imaginación heurística, y un aprendizaje de amplias miras
