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
Cinco años del Observatorio de la Industria Argentina de Videojuegos : caracterización de la industria hacia una proyección estratégica
No full textEl presente trabajo propone la generación de una caracterización general del sector, con principal foco en Argentina, y la revisión de tendencias a nivel internacional para el reconocimiento de buenas prácticas que el Observatorio de la industria argentina de videojuegos pueda tomar de referencia hacia una práctica de mejora continua. Para ello, se relevaron diversas fuentes de información a nivel nacional e internacional, desde revistas especializadas, informes estadísticos de cámaras y asociaciones, foros especializados, y demás material de interés en la web. Además, se realizaron entrevistas a informantes claves pertenecientes a diversos estudios de desarrollo nacionales, pequeños y medianos, incubadoras y aceleradoras, y representantes de cámaras. Esta mecánica permitió tener una visión integral del ecosistema nacional, sus interrelaciones, puntos fuertes y débiles, y las necesidades y desafíos actuales y potenciales, a fin de contar con información pertinente y actualizada de un sector dinámico y rápidamente cambiante como lo es el de videojuegos.Fil: Revale, Hernán.

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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
Guía para la elaboración del PIP
No full textLa presente obra fue elaborada por los equipos docentes de tercero y cuarto año de la Licenciatura en Administración de la Información (AGI) con el propósito de ofrecer orientación a las y los estudiantes que cursan las materias de Trabajo Final de Pregrado y de Grado sobre la elaboración de una propuesta de intervención profesional, que se requiere para la acreditación de ambas asignaturas. Asociar la tecnología a la gestión basada en procesos es un desafío para todas las organizaciones, sean del ámbito público o privado. Por esta razón, los Trabajos Finales de Pre Grado (TFPG ) y de Grado (TFG) de la carrera ponen foco en la elaboración de un proyecto escrito integrador de los conocimientos teóricos y de los saberes prácticos de los diferentes espacios curriculares que conforman AGI bajo el formato de intervención. nos propusimos entonces armar un cuaderno que pudiera cumplir con varios objetivos en simultáneo: por un lado, como ya fue señalado, acompañar a los y las estudiantes en el último trayecto de su carrera de grado, para colaborar con las condiciones de su egreso; por otro, describir y sistematizar el material de cátedra y otros contenidos clave para el desarrollo del proceso de intervención, enfatizando aquellos que fueron identificados, tras haber transitado la materia durante dos cohortes. Finalmente, como un instrumento para la generación de un espacio de reflexión de la práctica docente.Fil: Aimar, Mauro. Universidad Nacional de Rafaela.

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
