    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    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

    Color continuum of the story 'The Golden Rose' by K.G. Paustovsky

    A fragment of K.G. Paustovsky’s coloristic world view was reconstructed, which is of certain interest due to the importance of color in his works and in the light of anthropocentrism that prevails in modern linguistics. It was revealed that the color space of the story “The Golden Rose” (‘Zolotaya roza’), within the field model with zones based on both quantitative and qualitative features, is characterized by numerous color terms (for example, the field core includes 40 color terms). The color dominants of the story (black, white, yellow, and green) demonstrate the specificity of K.G. Paustovsky’s style with regard to color perception, as well as the primacy of national coloristic pattern over the individual one. The zonation of color terms shows K.G. Paustovsky’s space visualization, in which the transition occurs from the information component to the figurative one, as well as from color to light. The interrelation of color-light and space-time characteristics creates a unique color chronotope of the story “The Golden Rose”. Therefore, the identified features of K.G. Paustovsky’s color perception cast light upon his idiostyle. The results of the analysis confirm that the coloristic component played a key role in his linguistic world view
