    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

    Este trabajo registra la experiencia de ejecución de un programa de intervención grupal con psicología positiva dirigido a personas diagnosticadas con depresión distímica, atendidas en el Instituto ISNOR de Bucaramanga. Consta de cuatro fases. Fase de formulación que consigna los componentes teóricos, metodológicos y antecedentes. Fase diagnostica correspondiente a la iniciación del programa empleando tres instrumentos para registrar el estado emocional, las actitudes y conocimientos sobre la temática. Fase de intervención o de desarrollo de los talleres que enmarcan las temáticas de la psicología positiva con énfasis en las fortalezas de carácter y las emociones positivas. Fase de evaluación confronta el resultado de la fase de intervención en contraste con lo observado en la fase diagnostica. Finalmente se exponen los resultados y conclusiones que permiten referir las intervenciones con psicología positiva como una importante opción en la prevención y tratamiento de las alteraciones de salud mental y auspicio de bienestar.Resumen 7 Introducción 8 Objetivos 11 Objetivo General 11 Objetivos Específicos 11 Justificación 12 Antecedentes de Investigación 14 Planteamiento del problema 16 Preguntas orientadoras 19 Marco Teórico 20 Psicología Positiva 21 Antecedentes de la Psicología Positiva 22 El campo de la Psicología Positiva 26 Fortalezas y virtudes 29 Emociones positivas 39 Estados emocionales 43 Fluidez 44 Dístimia 45 Factores de riesgo 46 Diagnostico 48 Edad de inicio 48 Epidemiologia 48 Tratamiento 48 Farmacoterapia 53 Metodología 57 Tipo de investigación 57 Diseño 58 Muestra 58 Instrumento 60 Procedimiento 62 Fase de formulación 63 Fase de diagnóstico 64 Fase de intervención 64 Fase de evaluación 65 Resultados 66 Discusión 74 Referencias 78 Apéndice 80 Apéndice A.

It consists of four phases. Formulation phase components is stated theoretical, methodological and background. Phase diagnosed corresponding to the initiation of the program using three instruments to record the emotional state, attitudes and knowledge on the subject. Phase of development intervention or workshops that frame the issues of positive psychology with an emphasis on character strengths and positive emotions. Evaluation Phase confronts the result of the intervention phase in contrast to what was observed in the diagnostic phase. Finally, we report the results and conclusions refer allowing positive psychology interventions as an important option in the prevention and treatment of mental health disorders and welfare auspices.Modalidad Presencia

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    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

    No full text
    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
