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
Comment le sport participe au changement socio-culturel à Mayotte ?
No full textInternational audienceCette question problématique sert de fil rouge à la présente communication. Elle relate une partie de monenquête exploratoire qui s’est déroulée entre septembre 2018 et juillet 2022, avec 8 périodes continues de plusde 4 mois sur le terrain. La démarche de recherche se veut inductive et compréhensive (avec un matériauconstitué d’un travail archivistique qui retrace la chronologie de l’histoire sportive de l’archipel, desobservations consignées dans un carnet de terrain et des verbatims d’entretiens formalisés et informels avec lesacteurs enquêtés). Elle s’appuie, au départ, sur cette question, assez large, et relative aux effets socio-culturelsde l’implantation du système sportif à Mayotte avec, en toile de fond, le changement socio-culturel, les normesen transition qui l’accompagne et la gestion « déterritorialisée » des politiques sportives comme cadre d’analyse.L’enquête ethnographique concerne les dynamiques d'urbanisation qui entraînent l'implantation de nouveauxéquipements dédiés aux sports. Elles suggèrent une modification des usages sociaux et des rapports au territoireen tant qu’ils deviennent rapidement des hauts-lieux de la vie des villages et posent indissolublement desproblèmes de médiation [appropriation spontanée et conflits de représentation]. D’autre part, le déploiementrécent des politiques publiques [domino-centrées] sera questionné au regard des spécificités insulaires etculturelles ainsi que des modalités de diffusion du modèle sportif français (exemple : sportivisation de la coursede pneus, folklorisation du Murengue. Enfin, il s’agit de mettre en exergue les modalités bureaucratiques et les exigences fixées par les modes de gouvernances du monde sportif : de ses cadres institutionnels à ses évolutions réglementaires
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
La promotion de l'alimentation durable : arme du consensus et nouvelle gouvernementalité des corps: Perspectives en sciences sociales
No full textCet ouvrage est issu d'un colloque qui s'est tenu à l'Université du Littoral Côte d'Opale le 20 janvier 2022International audienceLe 20 juillet 2021, l'Assemblée nationale adoptait en dernière lecture la loi « portant lutte contre le dérèglement climatique et renforcement de la résilience face à ses effets ». Ce texte est présenté comme la plus importante loi écologique du quinquennat. Est-il à la hauteur de ses ambitions ?Issue des travaux de la Convention Citoyenne pour le Climat, innovation démocratique majeure, la réforme reflète-t-elle les propositions élaborées par les conventionnels ?Malgré son titre, la loi ne traite pas que de la question climatique et entend, avec ses 305 articles, « faire entrer l'écologie dans la vie des français » : consommation, production et travail, déplacements, logement, alimentation. Elle doit matérialiser la trajectoire définie par l'Accord de Paris et renforce la protection judiciaire de l'environnement. Le présent ouvrage propose une réflexion transversale sur ces objectifs. Juristes, politistes, sociologues, urbanistes, géographes et spécialistes de sciences de gestion partagent leur analyse à l'aune des dispositions de la loi et des textes intervenus depuis son entrée en vigueur
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
