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
Líneas de poder-resistencia en la Dirección de Psicología Comunitaria y Pedagogía Social de la Provincia de Buenos Aires: Omnes et singulatim, los centros educativos complementarios y la figura del orientador
No full textThe work that is presented below constitutes part of the research process dedicated to the production of a doctoral thesis about the historical-political resonances that the psychoeducational discourse produces within the educational system of the Province of Buenos Aires. For this, the focus of philosophical and political analysis is concentrated on the interplay of the power-resistance variables, re-taking an analytical perspective in a Foucaultian key, especially concentrated on the author\u27s renowned 1979 conference; “Omnes et Singulatim: towards a critique of political reason”.
In this sense, the text seeks to synthetically promote points of intersection between logics of power that circulate embodied by the psi discourse under the institutional practice of the Directorate of Community Psychology and Social Pedagogy, an octogenarian state agency that frames it. The place that the so-called Complementary Educational Centers and the figure of guidance occupy as a constitutive part will be highlighted, assuming with their particular modes of organization and paradigmatic expression forms of resistance.El trabajo que se presenta a continuación constituye parte del proceso de investigación dedicado a la producción de una tesis doctoral acerca de las resonancias histórico-políticas que el discurso psicoeducativo produce en el interior del sistema educativo de la Provincia de Buenos Aires. Para esto, el foco de análisis filosófico y político se concentra en el interjuego de las variables poder-resistencia, retomando una perspectiva analítica en clave foucaultiana, especialmente concentrada en la reconocida conferencia de 1979 del autor; “Omnes et singulatim: hacia una crítica de la razón política”.
En ese sentido, el texto busca promover sintéticamente puntos de intersección entre lógicas propias del poder que circulan encarnadas por el discurso psi bajo la práctica institucional de la Dirección de Psicología Comunitaria y Pedagogía Social, agencia estatal octogenaria que lo encuadra. Se destacará allí el lugar que ocupan como parte constitutiva los denominados centros educativos complementarios y la figura de la orientación, que asume —con sus modos particulares de organización y expresión— paradigmáticas formas de resistencia
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
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
Greco, M. B. (2022). La autoridad como práctica. Encuentros y experiencias en educación y formación docente. Rosario: Homo Sapiens Ediciones.
Get PDFEn el libro en cuestión, La Autoridad como práctica; encuentros y experiencias en educación y formación docentes, no sólo retoma ejes centrales sobre esta concepción en particular, sino que lo convierte, expresándolo a veces de manera explícita y otras implícita, en un material central para la problematización de la ética en la tarea educativa. Se percibe a lo largo de sus páginas una dinámica de escritura que balancea el contenido de forma pendular en tres puntos de apoyo: la presencia de lo político; el proceso de subjetivación y en el centro la pregunta por la autoridad. En ese ir y venir como eje la ética profesional docente: la formación docente como problema sobre el telón de fondo de aquello que representa la noción de autoridad. Como ya es habitual en su obra, la autora propone una búsqueda filosófica sobre el tema afirmando la necesidad de arribar a preguntas que incomodan y no dejan otra opción más que la propia transformación. Existe allí una línea que insiste casi como una obsesión por no perder de vista la importancia por trabajar la igualdad en sentido democrático y emancipatorio. A la manera de Rancière, nos dice, la práctica docente se conforma sobre una “partición de lo sensible”, es decir, sobre un momento que genera las condiciones para alterar el orden dado de manera de reconfigurarlo y crear nuevos espacios en común
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
