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
Transitions in human evolution and faunal changes during the Pleistocene in Latium.
No full textThe analysis of human evolution should not leave aside the evaluation of faunal and paleoenvironmental changes. As far as the evolution of the genus Homo is concerned, it seems at present that at least three major evolutionary transitions occurred in Europe during the time span between the late Early Pleistocene and Late Pleistocene. Looking at the Italian peninsula, Latium is a region of utmost interest to test hypotheses about these transitions. It includes in fact many bearing-hominid sites, from some among the earliest evidence of human settlements in Europe until the evolution of the Neandertals and the advent of early modern humans. Consolidate knowledge about the fossil evidence dealing with micro and macro vertebrates, bio-chronological mammal faunas sequences, and major faunal changes in Latium appears from the present analysis rather consistent with predictions about human evolution. Particularly, one of the most important faunal renewals took place in correspondence of the Early/Middle Pleistocene boundary, in the same time range when a transition from the human morph represented by the archaic cranium from Ceprano (ca. 800 ka) and Middle Pleistocene Europeans, presently referred to the species Homo heidelbergensis, is observed. By contrast, the transition in the Late Pleistocene between Neandertals and modern humans is not paralleled by any sharp faunal change. This occurrence supports scenarios where the emergence (in Africa) and subsequent world-wide diffusion of modern humans is seen as an exceptional event in the natural history of our species; it probably conditioned the faunal composition instead of being conditioned by large mammals paleobiogeographic trajectories
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

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
