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
Gordon Wallace
No full textSir Gordon Wallace was born Gordon Isaacs on 22 January 1900 at Redfern, Sydney, NSW, the son of Jacob Albert Clarke Isaacs and his wife Euphemia nee Wallace. He was educated at Sydney Boys High School and the University of Sydney (LLB 1927). On 20 December 1933 he changed his family name by deed poll to his mother's maiden name. (1)<br /><br />Wallace left school at the age of 16 and enrolled as an officer cadet at the Royal Military College, Duntroon. After graduation he served with the Rifle Brigade in England. On 11 December 1919 he was made a Lieutenant and on 1 October 1920 transferred to Staff Corps. He was Adjutant and Quarter Master of the 31st Battalion from 26 July 1921 and of the 15th Battalion from 11 June 1922. The first part of his career with the permanent Australian Army ceased when he was transferred to the unattached list and the Militia on 1 July 1922. (2)<br /><br />In March 1923 Wallace sat for and passed the Matriculation examination to enter the University of Sydney and commenced his law studies, which he completed in 1927 whilst working as an articled clerk. He remained in the Militia, transferring to the University regiment, the Sydney University Scouts, on 13 June 1923 and on 1 May 1924 was promoted to Captain. His militia service continued after he began his law career. A Major by 25 January 1929, he was transferred to the Reserve of Officers on 7 February 1933. Called up for militia duty on 1 April 1939, he was appointed Commander No. 2 Anti-aircraft Battery on 18 March 1940. By 13 January 1942 he was a temporary Colonel commanding an Anti-aircraft Group, and from 8 May Colonel in command Administration. He was seconded from the militia to the Australian Army on 16 July 1942 and on 1 September 1942 was a Lieutenant-Colonel. He served in Melbourne, New Guinea and the Northern Territory at the headquarters of the Australian Corps, New Guinea Force and Northern Territory Force, as Assistant Adjutant and Quartermaster General. He was discharged from the Army on 24 July 1944 and transferred to the Reserve of Officers (General List) on 3 October 1944 with the honorary rank of Colonel. (3)<br /><br />Wallace was called to the New South Wales Bar on 10 May 1928 and practised out of Lanark House, 148 Phillip Street (1929-1933), 184 Phillip Street (1934-1938) and 182 Phillip Street (1939-1960). He had an extensive practice in all jurisdictions, including common law and equity. He was made a King's Counsel on 18 December 1940 and had a large appellate practice in constitutional and commercial spheres. In addition he made a number of appearances before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Committee as counsel for the Commissioner of Stamp Duties. (4)<br /><br />Wallace was active in legal professional development. With Sir Percy Spender he was the author of 'Company Law and Practice' (known as Spender and Wallace, Sydney, 1937) and with J McI Young wrote 'Australian Company Law and Practice' (Sydney, 1965). He was a Council member of the NewSouth Wales Bar Association from 1953/54 to 1959/60, serving as vice-president from 1954/55 to 1955/56 and as president from 1956/57 to 1957/58. He was vice-president of the Law Council of Australia in 1957 and president of the International Law Association (Australian Branch) in 1961-1962.(5)<br /><br />Wallace had an interest in politics. He unsuccessfully stood as a Liberal Party candidate for a seat in the New South Wales Legislative Council at the by-election of 15 September 1955. (6)<br /><br />Wallace was appointed a Puisne Judge of the Supreme Court of New South Wales on 21 March 1960. He was a critic of the delays that occurred in appeal cases in the Supreme Court. On 7 July 1961 he highlighted the need for greater efficiency when he delivered a paper entitled 'Speedier Justice' to the Twelfth Legal Convention of the Law Council of Australia. On 27 October 1965 the newly elected Liberal Party government of Premier Robin Askin created the Court of Appeal when it passed the Supreme Court and Circuit Courts (Amendment) Act 1965. This reform was almost finalised but then shelved by the previous Labor Party government and had the support of the Bar and the legal profession. (7) <br /><br />The formation of the Court of Appeal rearranged the seniority of the Supreme Court judges, creating a tension between judges that lasted for twenty years. Judges appointed by the government to the Court of Appeal were elevated above their fellow judges. The remaining puisne judges were restricted in the type of work that they could do. When Wallace was appointed a Judge of Appeal and President of the Court of Appeal from 1 January 1966, he rose from fifteenth position to second. He was also a personal friend of the Attorney-General Kenneth Malcolm McCaw, the person authorising the changes. Justice Michael Kirby notes that while the tension may look like a fuss over prestige and status, it also involved constitutional principles: 'interference by the executive and the legislature in the rank and status of judges arguably involves a breach of a basic principle protective of the independence of the judiciary.' (8) However he believes that the reform was valid, citing the efficiency of the Court of Appeal and its use as a model for other States. Still the change was poorly implemented, lacking diplomacy and consultation. (9)<br /><br />Wallace was Acting Chief Justice of the Supreme Court from 1 October 1968 to 3 February 1969 while Sir Leslie Herron was granted leave of absence to visit Britain to investigate changes to the administrative functions of the Supreme Court. Wallace retired on 21 January 1970 as a Judge of the Supreme Court, a Judge of Appeal of the Court of Appeal, and as President of the Court of Appeal. He was created a Knight Bachelor on 10 June 1968 for his services as President of the New South Wales Court of Appeal. (10)<br /><br />Wallace undertook a number of other duties. He was a member of the Commonwealth Committee on Income Tax Revision from 1952 to 1953. He was chairman of a seminar in September 1965 held at Canberra on the Protection and Encouragement of Private Foreign Investment. He was chairman of the Royal Commission into exploratory and production drilling for petroleum in the area of the Great Barrier Reef, along with VJ Moroney and JE Smith. Created by Letters Patent on 5 May 1970 by the Commonwealth and Queensland governments, the Commission was asked to report on the environmental risks to the Great Barrier Reef of allowing oil or gas drilling, possible safety procedures, and probable benefits to Queensland and Australia. The Commission reported on 30 October 1974 and sought permission and funding for long term experiments but these were rejected by both governments. Moroney and Smith wanted to allow drilling within specific areas subject to stringent precautions and despite probable risks. Wallace put forward a minority view that no drilling be allowed. (11)<br /><br />After his retirement from the Supreme Court, Wallace was editor until July 1987 of the Australian edition of Halisbury's Laws of England. (12)<br /><br />Wallace died on 11 December 1987 at Sydney, survived by his son and daughter. His wife Lady Marjorie Mary Wallace nee Mullins, whom he married on 19 May 1927, died on 4 August 1980.

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
