Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

Pragmatic Case Studies as a Source of Unity in Applied Psychology
No full textTo unify or not to unify applied psychology: that is the question. In this article we review pendulum swings in the historical efforts to answer this question—from a comprehensive, positivist, “top-down,” deductive yes between the 1930s and the early 60s, to a postmodern no since then. A rationale and proposal for a limited, “bottom-up,” inductive yes in applied psychology is then presented, employing a case-based paradigm that integrates both positivist and postmodern themes and components. This paradigm is labeled “pragmatic psychology” and, its specific use of case studies, the “Pragmatic Case Study Method” (“PCS Method”). We call for the creation of peer-reviewed journal-databases of pragmatic case studies as a foundational source of unifying applied knowledge in our discipline. As one example, the potential of the PCS Method for unifying different angles of theoretical regard is illustrated in an area of applied psychology, psychotherapy, via the case of Mrs. B. The article then turns to the broader historical and epistemological arguments for the unifying nature of the PCS Method in both applied and basic psychology.Peer reviewe

Factores de riesgo para presentar dolor crónico de tobillo en pacientes con fractura de tobillo clasificados con Danis Weber y AO en el Centenario Hospital Miguel Hidalgo
No full textIntroduction: Ankle fractures are the most common bone injuries in any age group and are caused generally by a low-energy mechanism. One of the most applied classifications is Danis-Weber, which tells us about the probability of syndesmal injury. Objective: To identify the risk factors that patients with ankle fractures may present that could influence the presence of chronic ankle pain. Material and methods: A systematic review of 142 electronic medical records of patients with ankle fracture diagnosis with Danis-Weber classification from 2016 to 2019. Results: 142 patients were evaluated considering variables like Weber, treatment, medial clearance measurement, chronic pain, complication, and injury mechanism were analyzed. Statistically significant differences were obtained in the medial clearance measurement variables (p ≤0.01); patients with Weber B or C are more likely to have chronic pain (p = 0.02). Conclusions: There are risk factors for suffering from chronic ankle pain (present a Weber B or C type fracture). There is a relationship in the probability of injury to the deltoid ligament with the Danis-Weber classification.Introducción: Las fracturas de tobillo son las lesiones óseas más comunes en cualquier grupo de edad y, por lo general, son causadas por un mecanismo de baja energía. Una de las clasificaciones más usadas es la de Danis-Weber, la cual nos habla de la probabilidad de lesión sindesmal; sin embargo, no nos habla de las complicaciones o probabilidad de padecer dolor crónico. Objetivo: Identificar los factores de riesgo que pudieran presentar los pacientes con fractura de tobillo que puedan influenciar la presencia de dolor crónico de tobillo. Material y métodos: Se realizó una revisión sistemática de 142 expedientes clínicos electrónicos de pacientes con diagnóstico de fractura de tobillo clasificada con Danis-Weber, en el periodo de 2016 a 2019, que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Resultados: Se obtuvo una muestra de 142 pacientes, se analizaron variables como Weber, tratamiento, medición de claro medial, dolor crónico, complicación y mecanismo de lesión. Se obtuvieron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en las variables de medición de claro medial (p ≤0.01); y, en cuanto a dolor crónico, en donde es más probable que los pacientes con Weber B o C presenten dolor crónico (p = 0.02). Conclusiones: Hay factores de riesgo para padecer dolor crónico de tobillo como el padecer una fractura de tipo Weber B o C; existe una relación en la probabilidad de lesión del ligamento deltoideo con la clasificación de Danis-Weber

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
The Census of Antarctic Marine Life: The First Available Baseline for Antarctic Marine Biodiversity
No full textThe Census of Antarctic Marine Life (CAML, www.caml.aq) was a 5-year long international project that focused the attention on the ice-bound oceans of Antarctica during the International Polar Year (IPY) in 2007–08, bringing together
researchers from 30 different countries and more than 50 institutions. It was one of the fifteen IPY-endorsed biological projects devoted to Antarctica (Project #83)
and coordinated field operations of 18 research voyages in Antarctica during IPY and/or within the CAML life-span.
CAML’s main objectives were to study the evolution of life in Antarctic waters to determine how this had influenced the diversity of the present biota and to use these observations to predict how it might respond to future change. CAML was also one of the fourteen projects of the international Census of Marine Life (CoML, www.coml.org) (Gutt et al. 2010), each focusing on specific geographic environments or subject areas, with the aim to understand marine biodiversity and set reference baselines to allow measuring change. CAML’s sister project was the Arctic Ocean Diversity (ArcOD), devoted to the census of Arctic
marine biodiversity. Thanks to strong interaction with this project, it is now possible to draw comparisons between differences in ecological structure and dynamics of the Arctic and Southern Oceans (Gradinger et al. 2010; Gutt et al. 2010)
