MODERNOS Y MILITANTES. California a través de Harwell Hamilton Harris y Gordon Drake
A través del establecimiento de una genealogía moderna que recorre tres generaciones de arquitectos californianos entre mediados de los años 20 y finales de los años 40, desde Richard Neutra a Gordon Drake pasando por Harwell Hamilton Harris, esta tesis aborda el modo en que estos autores entendieron y expresaron su particular vinculación con el medio físico y el paisaje creativo del Sur de California. El análisis de las obras donde estos arquitectos coincidieron en su condición de discípulos y maestros y, sobre todo, la identificación de sus círculos de influencias, permiten describir algunos de los episodios formativos que mejor explican los cauces por los que se gestaron y transmitieron las tradiciones modernas más originales de la región.
Harwell Hamilton Harris y Gordon Drake son dos arquitectos genuinamente californianos cuya obra, a pesar de su calidad, resulta bastante desconocida para la cultura arquitectónica europea. Esta situación es representativa del modo en que la historia de la arquitectura moderna californiana se ha transmitido sólo a través de unos cuantos relatos incompletos, cuyas principales fuentes deben ser examinadas con mayor profundidad crítica. Éste sería el caso de Esther McCoy, la primera historiadora de este periodo y a quien se suele citar sin atender a su frecuente implicación personal en los hechos mismos que recogen sus estudios.
Harris llegó al despacho de Neutra en 1928. Éste residía entonces en la vivienda que Rudolph y Pauline Schindler habían construido en Kings Road, y allí ultimaba el proyecto de ejecución de la Lovell House, la obra a la que mayor esfuerzo de promoción dedicó en toda su vida y la casa que confirmó su celebridad internacional. Poco más de una década después, Gordon Drake fue admitido en el estudio de Harris donde colaboró, precisamente, en la vivienda que más reconocimiento le valió a su mParra Martínez, J. (2012).

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
We 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
We 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
