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
British Romanticism: Its Character and Limits
No full text浪漫運動主要興盛於西歐地區，也就是日耳曼、英國與法國，三者的浪漫運動基本上為獨立發展，然而在發起的規模與運動的形式上，日耳曼與法國相較於英國，更像是一個「運動」，在影響的領域與層面上，日耳曼與法國亦超過英國，可見英國浪漫運動的發展相較於德法，有較為明顯的困境與侷限，由此吾人可以推論英國浪漫運動有其所以如此的特質，亦即英國的傳統文化使其得以發展出相當程度的浪漫運動，但也使其浪漫運動的發展有某種侷限。由於英國傳統文化較為嚴謹、理性，而又有某種天真自然的情懷，英國學者常有所謂「英國性」（Englishness）的說法，此對於其文化發展有相當的影響，故其浪漫運動表現特別強烈的理性與感性之間的掙扎。然而直接討論英國浪漫運動相對於德法之特質的研究不多，因此本論文擬從浪漫運動的各個層面，亦即文學、藝術、哲學、以至於政治主張，去探討英國浪漫運動的特質，與它在各種領域的發展困境。
英國浪漫運動的特質及其發展困境其實是一體兩面，由於英國傳統文化較為嚴謹、講理，故英國浪漫運動的發展會有一種侷限和困境，無法如德意志與法國般有比較廣泛深刻的發展，它的浪漫運動表現出較強的情感與理性之間的緊張性。本文擬透過對英國浪漫運動的特質及其發展困境的研究，探討理性與感性之間的關係。而在探討英國的困境之時，本文亦欲進一步討論此困境是否僅為英國本身的困境，抑或是整個浪漫運動的困境，也就是說浪漫運動為何只在文藝上有比較長久的價值，其何以無法成為一個學術運動，何以無法成為一個政治運動、甚至是經濟運動，而始終侷限於文藝的領域。對比於啟蒙運動的廣泛發展，浪漫運動的狹窄便十分耐人尋味，由此吾人亦可深思理性與感性在人類文明發展中的重要性。Romanticism was an artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th century, and in most areas it was at its peak in the approximately from 1800 to 1850. Romanticism can be seen as a rejection of the precepts of order, calmness, harmony, balance, idealization, and rationality that typified Classicism in general and Neoclassicism in particular in late 18th-century. It was also to some extent a reaction against the Enlightenment and against 18th-century rationalism and physical materialism in general. Historians of French and German literature are accustomed to set off a period, or a division of their subject, and entitle it “Romanticism” or “the Romantic School.” Writers of English literary history, while recognizing the importance of England''s share in this great movement in European letters, have not generally accorded it a place by itself in the arrangement of their subject-matter, but have treated it cursively, as a tendency present in the work of individual authors. Scholars have described “Englishness” as strict and honourable, and sometimes boyish. Therefore, British Romanticism continued to reflect the constant conflict and tension between reason and sensibility. This article will discuss the thesis through literature, arts, philosophy, and politics of the romantics, in order to understand the character and limits of British romanticism.摘要 2

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
