    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    On the genus Lagenopolycysitis Artois and Schockaert, 2000 (Platyhelminthes, Kalyptorhynchia, Polycystididae), with the description of six new species

    Meiofauna, broadly defined as those organisms able to pass through a 1-mm sieve but retained by a 45-μm mesh, comprise a highly diverse assemblage of invertebrates. Despite their high diversity and abundance, their ubiquitous presence across the globe, and their important role in ocean health and ecosystem functioning, these animals are frequently overlooked in biodiversity assessments. A prime example of such an understudied group is Rhabdocoela Ehrenberg, 1831, a highly speciose and ecologically diverse group of flatworms with over 1500 species found worldwide. As top predators, these microturbellarians are assumed to play a key role in meiofaunal ecosystems, yet many species remain undescribed to date. This study focuses on Lagenopolycystis, a rhabdocoel genus originally described in 1965, which currently includes only two described species. By combining results from over 30 years of marine sampling campaigns across Europe and Eastern Africa conducted by our research group, we now present an updated description of the genus, followed by a redescription of the type species Lagenopolycystis peresi Brunet, 1965, and L. mandelai Willems & Artois, 2017. Additionally, we describe a total of six species new to science. The new species are mainly distinguished from each other and other representatives of Lagenopolycystis by the organization of their reproductive systems. Comments on the genus' distribution and phylogeny are provided. Our findings contribute to our understanding of microturbellarian diversity, and underscore the need for continued exploration and description of meiofaunal species by future researchers.We gratefully acknowledge the Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia and Estación Biológica de Doñana (ICTS-RBD, Spain) for supporting fieldwork in Doñana National Park.

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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
