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
The transformative character of imagery of South - Central Anatolian communities in the period 6500-5500 BC
Full text linkWydział HistorycznyNiniejsza praca jest poświęcona kwestii pochodzenia systemu wyobrażeń z Regionu Jezior w południowo-środkowej Turcji w okresie Późnego Neolitu i Wczesnego Chalkolitu. Punktem wyjścia do rozważań jest osada Çatalhöyük w środkowej Anatolii. We wczesnym neolicie wyróżniały ją domostwa bogato zdobione malowidłami i rzeźbami. Istniał swoisty kanon symboli i motywów. Osada ulegała stopniowym przemianom, zmniejszając swój rozmiar i u schyłku 7 tysiąclecia została opuszczona. Rozpad Çatalhöyük, początek masowej migracji i pojawienie się osad w Regionie Jezior są mniej więcej równoczasowe. Upadek neolitycznego świata nie oznaczał jednak końca sfery wyobrażeniowej. Wizerunki znane ze ścian Çatalhöyük zaczęły pojawić się w Regionie Jezior. W celu prześledzenia obecności i dynamiki zmian sfery wyobrażeniowej, dane uzyskane w trakcie wykopalisk z czterech intensywnie przebadanych stanowisk archeologicznych (ceramika, figurki, pieczęcie stemplowe) zostały przeanalizowane w oparciu o semiotykę Charlesa Peirce’a. Analizy pokazały, iż wczesnochalkolityczny system znaków i wyobrażeń zbudowany był z replik znaków wczesnoneolitycznych. Społeczności Regionu Jezior czerpały z tradycji Çatalhöyük w celu odwołania się i podkreślenia związków z przeszłością i miejscem pochodzenia. Wraz z upływem czasu, formy motywów ulegały stopniowej stylizacji i wskutek tego utraciły swe pierwotne znaczenie.My doctoral dissertation is devoted to the issue of the origin of the Late Neolithic and Early Chalcolithic imagery in the Lake District, south- central Turkey. My point of departure is the site of Çatalhöyük in Central Anatolia, characterized by an elaborate art inside the houses. In Çatalhöyük a whole range of motifs and themes were used and reproduced on wall paintings and reliefs. The settlement was undergoing significant transformations in different domains, was gradually decreasing in size and finally abandoned. The end of the Early Neolithic clearly did not mark the demise of the Neolithic imagery. In different parts of the Central Anatolia we can observe continuity of some forms of motifs known from Neolithic wall paintings and reliefs on small, mobile objects. My thesis is devoted to answering the question, how many forms of Neolithic motifs and themes survived in the Late Neolithic and Early Chalcolithic periods in the Lake District region. In order to reassess the imagery, data was collected from the four intensively excavated sites from the region: Hacılar, Kuruçay, Höyücek and Bademağacı. I examined three main categories of artifacts: pottery, figurines and stamp seals, in order to trace the presence and transformation of particular images in time. I employed the semiotic perspective of Charles Sanders Peirce

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
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
