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
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

Introducing Excluded People into the Love of the Father. A Concern of the Apostle Paul in the Letter to the Romans
No full textIn Zusammenhang mit der Behauptung, dass Juden und Heiden gemeinsam am Bunde Gottes teilhaftig sind, wird der Römerbrief von Paulus von einem heilsgeschichtlichen Zug gekennzeichnet. In der Dynamik der Einführung der bisher ausgeschlossenen Heiden in die Liebe Gottes in Christus haben die Motive der Herrlichkeit und des Verherrlichen eine zentrale Bedeutung. Paulus unterscheidet dabei drei verschiedene Schritte: erstens der gemeinsame Grund des Naturgesetzes, zweitens die vorherige Wirkung der Barmherzigkeit Gottes und drittens die gegenseitige Annahme aller Gläubigen in die Kirche.Stating that Jews and gentiles alike are called to share in God’s covenant, Paul’s Letter to the Romans is characterized by a perspective of salvation history. The motives of glory and glorifying play a central role in the dynamics of introducing the formerly excluded gentiles into the Love of God in Christ. Paul lines this process out in three stages: first the common ground of natural law, second the previous working of the mercy of God and third the mutual acceptance of all faithful in the Church
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
Wszystko, co robi się z czystą intencją jest doskonałą miłością. Elementy rozeznawania duchów według św. Teresy od Jezusa
No full textŚwięta Teresa z Avili łączy rozeznawanie duchów z jej głównym tematem wewnętrznej modlitwy. Główne elementy jej doktryny na temat modlitwy (posłuszeństwo, pokora, miłość, dystans) stanowią również kluczowe motywy w jej spojrzeniu na rozeznawanie duchów. Z tej perspektywy skąpe stwierdzenia Świętej Teresy mogą być włączone w spójną doktrynę rozeznawania duchów opartą na jej głębokim doświadczeniu religijnym. Rozeznawanie jawi się jako rdzeń życia chrześcijańskiego i ważny sposób, w jaki Boski Przyjaciel daje światło dla wyborów, które sprawiają, że ludzie wzrastają w cnotach i w wewnętrznej wolności.Saint Teresa of Ávila intrinsically connects discernment of the spirits with her principal theme of inner prayer. The main constituents of her doctrine of prayer (obedience, humility, charity, detachment) also represent key motifs in her view on discernment. From this perspective, Santa Teresa’s sparse assertions can be integrated into a coherent doctrine on discernment of the spirits, founded in her deep religious experience. Discernment emerges as the core of Christian life and the genuine way in which the Divine Friend gives light for choices that make human persons grow in virtues and in inner freedom
Cząstka zdumienia, która stanie się esencją wieczności. Znaczenie przyjaźni w życiu i myśli świętego Jana Pawła II
No full textPrzyjaźnie z ludźmi odegrały ważną rolę w życiu świętego Jana Pawła II. W swoich rozważaniach na temat przyjaźni papież opracowuje kategorie tomistyczne z perspektywy personalizmu. Według papieża Wojtyły przyjaźń jest swoistą formą czystej miłości. Wśród przyjaciół rozwija się głęboka jedność, która jest obrazem Trójjedynego Boga i antycypacją wiecznej komunii świętych.Friendships with the most various kinds of people played an important role in the life of Saint John Paul II. In his reflections on friendship, the pope elaborates Thomistic categories from his personalist perspective. According to Pope Wojtyła, friendship is a specific form of chaste love. Among the friends, it works out a deep union that is an image of the triune God and an anticipation of the everlasting communion of the saints
