Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Glasscherven in de wederopbouw - Een onderzoek naar glas-in-loodramen en de Katholieke Kerk tussen 1945-1962 Femke Huis s1075776 15-06-2025 Bachelor scriptie Kunstgeschiedenis Scriptiebegeleider: Sjors
No full textTijdens een bezoek aan de Dom van Keulen kwam ik oog in oog te staan met glas-in-loodramen
gemaakt door Gerhard Richter uit 2007. Het raam was op een onverwachte manier
vormgegeven en wekte belangstelling door de lichtval. Opvallend was hoeveel aandacht er was
voor de architectuurgeschiedenis van de kerk, terwijl de glasramen relatief onderbelicht bleven.
Terug in Nederland viel het op dat hier de informatie rondom glas in lood ook beperkt was. Dit
was de aanleiding om een onderzoek te starten naar glas in lood. De spanning tussen de fragiele
aard van het glas en de destructieve aard van de oorlog vormde het uitgangspunt om specifiek
onderzoek te doen naar glas-in-loodramen in de wederopbouwperiode.
Dit onderzoek beschouwt glas in lood als een communicatief middel. Het fungeert niet alleen
als drager van Bijbelse verhalen, maar ook als uitdrukking van de waarden, spanningen en
idealen van de Katholieke Kerk. Door middel van iconografische analyse, literatuuronderzoek
en historisch bronnenonderzoek worden er drie verschillende casestudies geanalyseerd om
inzicht te krijgen in hun boodschap en hoe die de Kerk uit de periode van 1945-1962 reflecteert.
De centrale onderzoeksvraag is “Wat communiceren glas-in-loodramen in de periode van 1945-
1962 in Nederland over de Katholieke Kerk?”.
Ondanks de opvallende aanwezigheid van glas-in-loodramen is er weinig onderzoek naar
gedaan. Deze scriptie beoogt daarom bij te dragen aan een opvulling van de kenniskloof omtrent
glas in lood en meer informatie te verkrijgen over de mogelijkheden van glas in lood als
communicatiemiddel.
In het onderzoek wordt er via historisch context zes hypothesen opgesteld. Vervolgens worden
er drie casestudies geanalyseerd. De verkregen informatie wordt gebruikt om de zes hypothesen
te toetsen. De drie casestudies zijn: Het Sint Martinusraam (1948), De wonderbaarlijke
visvangst (1960) en een ramencyclus uit de Sint Catharinakerk in Eindhoven.
De belangrijkste conclusie is dat, ondanks verschillen in stijl en thematiek, de onderzochte
ramen een aantal overkoepelende thema’s delen. Ze reflecteren op geweld en goddelijk oordeel,
benadrukken het belang van missie en kerkgemeenschap, maar vermijden expliciete
verwijzingen naar het Jodendom.
Hoewel dit onderzoek inzicht biedt in de communicatieve functies van glas-in-loodramen in de
wederopbouwperiode, is het gebaseerd op een beperkt aantal casestudies. Hierdoor zijn de
conclusies niet te gebruiken als generalisatie, daar is verder onderzoek voor nodig
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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
