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
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
지역격차 완화와 지역균형발전 정책의 역할: 공간적 불평등에 대한 실증 분석
Get PDF학위논문 (석사)-- 서울대학교 대학원 : 농경제사회학부 지역정보 전공, 2013. 2. 이성우.While achieving remarkably rapid economic growth, Korea adopted an unbalanced growth strategy for industrialization. However, in a recent decade, balanced regional development policy emerged as a top priority of the government in response to social problems caused by the growth-pole strategy. The policy has been one of the main policy objectives in the two most recent administrations, and planned with rosy expectations of substantial contributions to interregional balance and the achievement of social cohesion with allocated significant portions of the budget. Though well known and controversial, its effectiveness on reduction in regional disparities has received little to no long-term empirical investigation to date.
In this context, this study begins to fill this vacuum with one major research question: Did the balanced regional development strategy work for Korea? To address the question, first of all, this paper sheds light on theoretical and historical background of BRDPs in Korea. It in turns conducts empirical analysis through GRDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product) as a nominal indicator and TFP (Total Factor Productivity) as a real indicator for 14 metropolitan regions. The analysis covers 1995 to 2010 and examines inequality among the regions by applying Gini and Theil indices to evaluate whether the balanced development strategy reduced the interregional inequality in Korea. The findings suggest the regional TFP and GRDP disparities widened despite the continuous policy intervention to lessen the gap during the period. In particular, the upward trend of the inequality coefficient implies that the policies faced obstacles to achieving balanced regional development. This paper also offers some policy implications regarding balanced regional development as an attainable goal in Korea.Ⅰ. INTRODUCTION
