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
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

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
Phylogenomics and microRNAs congruently resolve the ecdysozoan phylogeny and provide new insight on the origin and early evolution of Arthropoda
No full textEcdysozoa, the group including Nematoda (roundorms) and the Arthropoda, has dominated Earth’s habitats since the Cambrian, and includes the largest majority of the extant animal biodiversity and biomass. The monophyly of this group as long been debated and has only recently been confirmed by the analyses of complete animal genomes. However, the relationships within the Ecdysozoa remain uncertain. We assembled large-scale phylogenomic data sets, and identified the nearly complete microRNA repertoire for a representative sample of ecdysozoan species. These independent genomic-scale data sets were analysed and the relationships among the Ecdysoza resolved by means of congruence. We were able to show that of the two generally accepted ecdysozoan clades (the Panarthropoda and the Cycloneuralians) only the first, which includes the Arthropoda, the Tardigrada (water bears) and the Onychophora (velvet worms), is monophyletic. The second, Cycloneuralia, most likely represents a paraphyletic assemblage of phyla. We were also able to show that within Panarthropoda, the velvet worms represent the sister group of the Arthropoda with the water bears representing the sister group of the Arthropoda plus Onychophora. To conclude we used all currently available genomic-scale data sets to generate a detailed molecular timescale of Ecdysozoan evolution. Our results show that the Ediacaran was the cradle of the Ecdysozoa, but that individual ecdysozoan phyla radiated in the Cambrian or later. Finally, we were able to show that the first ecdysozoan that were able to colonise the land were the Arthropoda, and they did this significantly earlier than suggested by the fossil record. Our results substantially clarify the relationships among the Ecdysozoa and provide an invaluable framework to understand evolutionary patterns within this group
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
