Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
Coopetitive value creation in entrepreneurial contexts: the case of AlmaCube
In the burgeoning coopetition strategy literature, scarce attention has been paid so far to the role of coopetitive system of value creation in entrepreneurial contexts. With the aim of epitomizing a coopetitive system of value creation, we draw attention to the fact that coopetition does not simply emerge from coupling competition and cooperation issues, but it rather implies that cooperation and competition merge together to form a new kind of strategic interdependence between firms. Accordingly, coopetition strategy concerns interfirm strategy that allows the firms involved to manage a partially convergent interest and goal structure and to create value by means of coopetitive advantage.
Drawing on a parsimonious set of theoretical antecedents (Dagnino and Padula, 2002; Dagnino and Mariani, 2007; Padula and Dagnino, 2007), this paper elaborates a comprehensive framework where the emergence of coopetition is linked to the configuration process of entrepreneurial strategies. In more detail, the paper focuses on the strategic role of the entrepreneurial firm in bridging the gap between the capability space and the opportunity space, by characterizing entrepreneurial coopetitive strategies according to the required objectives of execution vs innovation. Consequently, we show how coopetition can be the appropriate blaze to spark value creation in entrepreneurial contexts, where entrepreneurial firms have to select their strategic courses of action by capturing the right and well-timed opportunities frequently making use of limited capability base. Finally, the notion of coopetitive analysis, where the actors involved interact coopetitively, is introduced and illustrated as an appealing tool effective to recognize the potential for creating and sustaining coopetitive advantage in shifting entrepreneurial contexts. A few business mini-cases, where coopetition emerges in a variety of entrepreneurial contexts, illustrate how coopetitive analysis can be supportive of entrepreneurial strategies under the budding regìme of coopetition
