Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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 textWe 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

The philosophy of education of William H. Kilpatrick
No full textEste trabalho consiste em uma pesquisa bibliográfica que visa à exposição dos elementos essenciais da filosofia da educação de William Heard Kilpatrick. Buscou-se, também, averiguar de que modo esses elementos mantiveram-se pertinentes para o autor ao longo de sua trajetória intelectual. Metodologicamente, realizou-se a leitura das obras de Kilpatrick e da bibliografia pertinente. Ao final da pesquisa, constatou-se que no núcleo do pensamento kilpatrickiano está o princípio da permanente mudança da natureza, tributário do pensamento darwiniano. Esse princípio, o da mudança, ecoará no pensamento filosófico, pedagógico e psicológico de Kilpatrick. Seu pensamento é tributário, além de Charles Darwin, do pensamento de John Dewey, Charles S. Peirce, William James, Edward L. Thorndike e George H. Mead. Também constatou-se que Kilpatrick, ao longo da vida, realizara um movimento teórico ao encontro da integração indivíduo-sociedade, cujos passos foram: a) do ponto de vista da psicologia: a crítica à visão mecanicista de ser humano e a defesa de uma psicologia favorável ao desenvolvimento da criatividade humana e à relação ética entre pessoa e grupo; b) do ponto de vista da educação: a crítica à prefixação de conteúdo, à padronização da avaliação e ao autoritarismo; a defesa do respeito à personalidade e a defesa de uma educação concebida de forma atual e reflexiva; c) do ponto de vista ético-político: a defesa de uma sociedade democrática e a defesa do livre pensamento e da livre expressão da personalidade.This work consists of a bibliographic research that aims to expose the essential elements of William Heard Kilpatrick\'s philosophy of education. It also sought to know how these elements remain relevant to the author along his intellectual trajectory. Methodologically, it was made a reading of Kilpatrick\'s works and the relevant bibliography. At the end of the research, it noted that the Kilpatricks thought core is the principle of permanent change of nature, tributary of Darwinian thought. This principle of change will echo in Kilpatrick\'s philosophical, pedagogical, and psychological thinking. His thinking is tributary, in addition to Charles Darwin, the thinking of John Dewey, Charles S. Peirce, William James, Edward L. Thorndike, and George H. Mead. It also noted that throughout his life, Kilpatrick did a theoretical movement towards the integration member-society, whose steps were: a) in the psychology point of view: the criticism of the mechanistic view of the human being and the defense of a favorable psychology to the development of the human creativity and the ethical relationship between person and group; b) in the education point of view: a critique of the prefixing of contents, the standardization of evaluation and authoritarianism; a defense of respect for personality and a defense of a current and reflexively conceived education; c) in the ethical and political point of view: a defense of a democratic society and a defense of the free thinking and expression of personality
Pragmatic Case Studies as a Source of Unity in Applied Psychology
No full textTo unify or not to unify applied psychology: that is the question. In this article we review pendulum swings in the historical efforts to answer this question—from a comprehensive, positivist, “top-down,” deductive yes between the 1930s and the early 60s, to a postmodern no since then. A rationale and proposal for a limited, “bottom-up,” inductive yes in applied psychology is then presented, employing a case-based paradigm that integrates both positivist and postmodern themes and components. This paradigm is labeled “pragmatic psychology” and, its specific use of case studies, the “Pragmatic Case Study Method” (“PCS Method”). We call for the creation of peer-reviewed journal-databases of pragmatic case studies as a foundational source of unifying applied knowledge in our discipline. As one example, the potential of the PCS Method for unifying different angles of theoretical regard is illustrated in an area of applied psychology, psychotherapy, via the case of Mrs. B. The article then turns to the broader historical and epistemological arguments for the unifying nature of the PCS Method in both applied and basic psychology.Peer reviewe
Constitutional Change Through Emergency Decrees: the Abolition of Provinces in Italy
No full textMost constitutions foresee a 'state of emergency' associated with the existence of an armed conflict. Paradoxically, modern societies seem to be permanently confronted with genuine emergencies increasingly removed from the threat of actual, physical violence. The Eurozone crisis can be said to have accentuated this, as the immense pressures from financial markets have turned the control of public finances into a struggle for the survival of the affected States. The chapter explores the legal manifestations of emergency in the domestic law of Italy, alongside other national examples provided in the book (Greece, Spain, Ireland). These countries have all been hit by the Eurozone crisis (albeit in different manners) and have had to accommodate external oversight in their crisis management. The adoption of emergency measures for tackling the economic upheavals has been diverse across the case studies, although all have in common the emergence of a prominent role for the executive in the aftermath of the Eurozone crisis

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
