Replication data for Identifying science in the news
No full textThis data set contains the data and codebook required to replicate the study "Identifying science in the news: An assessment of the precision and recall of Altmetric.com news mention data."
It includes two data sets, both of which contain a collection of news stories published in the science and health sections of the following eight news media outlets during March-April 2021: The Guardian (Science Section), HealthDay, IFLScience, MedPage Today, News Medical, New York Times (Science Section), Popular Science, and Wired.
The first data set (altmetric_dataset.csv) was obtained by downloading all of the news stories that mentioned research using the Altmetric Explorer.
The second data set (content_analysis_dataset.csv) was obtained by collecting a random sample of 400 news stories from these 8 sources and manually identifying mentions of research within them.
The codebook (news_mention_codebook.pdf) contains the coding instructions that were used to identify the mentions of research in content_analysis_dataset.csv

University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, United States of America.Introduction. When using social media, physicians are encouraged and trained to maintain separate professional and personal identities. However, this separation is difficult and even undesirable, as the blurring of personal and professional online presence can influence patient trust. Thus, to develop policies and educational resources that are more responsive to the blurring of personal and professional boundaries on social media, this study aims to provide an understanding of how physicians present themselves holistically online. Methods. 28 physicians based in the United States that use social media were interviewed. Participants were asked to describe how and why they use social media, specifically Twitter (rebranded as “X” in July 2023), which is especially popular among physicians. Interviews were complimented by data from participants’ Twitter profiles. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis guided by Goffman’s theory of presentation of self. This theory uses the metaphor of a stage to characterize how individuals attempt to control the aspects of the identities—or faces—they display during social interactions. Results. We identified seven faces presented by the participants. Participants crafted and maintained these faces through discursive choices in their tweets and profiles, which were motivated by their perceived audience. We identified overlaps and tensions that arise at the intersections of faces, which posed professional and personal challenges for participants. Conclusions. Physicians strategically emphasize their more professional or personal faces according to their objectives and motivations in different communicative situations, and tailor their language and content to better reach their target audiences. While tensions arise in between these faces, physicians still prefer to project a rounded, integral image of themselves on social media. This suggests a need to reconsider social media policies and related educational initiatives to better align with the realities of these digital environments.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionFil: Maggio, Lauren.

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
