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
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
Folias de Espanha: o eterno retorno
No full textEsta tese focaliza a trajetória do tema musical Folias de Espanha, que constitui um dos mais notáveis fenômenos na musicologia devido à sua permanente recorrência na História da Música. Nosso objetivo foi ampliar o escopo interdisciplinar de estudo e de reflexão musicológica através da compreensão da utilização do tema na História da Música e sua historiografia, a fim de enriquecer o horizonte de nossa prática acadêmica. A Folias de Espanha é uma melodia simples e de caráter enigmático que surgiu em Portugal no início do século XVI como uma dança selvagem popular das ruas que teve sua estrutura rítmica e harmônica modificadas ao passar pela Espanha. Da península ibérica, migrou para a Itália e foi levada por guitarristas italianos à corte francesa, transformando-se ali em uma dança majestosa. Sua história a partir desse itinerário é complexa e reflete sua grande popularidade, pois ela ainda constitui grande fonte de inspiração para diversos compositores, desde nomes consagrados como Bach, Beethoven e Liszt, até trilhas compostas para filmes comerciais. Outros temas musicais apresentam a mesma recorrência histórica, como por exemplo, o hino católico Dies Irae do século XIII ou o tema do Capricho N.24 de Paganini, mas a retomada da Folias de Espanha como tema musical é a mais recorrente na História da Música.This thesis focuses on the trajectory of the theme Spanish Folias, which is one of the most remarkable phenomena in musicology due to its permanent recurrence in music history. Our goal was to broaden the scope of interdisciplinary study and musicological reflection through the understanding of the use of the theme in music history and its historiography, in order to enrich the horizon of our academic practice. The Spanish Folias is a simple melody with enigmatic character that first appeared in Portugal in the early sixteenth century as a wild popular street dance that had its rhythmic and harmonic structure modified by passing through Spain. From the Iberian Peninsula, it traveled to Italy and was taken by Italian guitarists to the French court, becoming into a majestic dance. Its history starting from this itinerary is complex and reflects its great popularity, since it still constitutes a great source of inspiration for several composers, since renowned names such as Bach, Beethoven and Liszt, until soundtracks composed for commercial movies. Other musical themes display the same historical recurrence, as for example, the XIII century catholic hymn Dies Irae or Paganinis Caprice N.24, but the resuming of Spanish Folias as musical subject is the most recurrent in the History of Music
