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
The interpreter in multi-party medical encounters
No full textThe author’s contribution is part of a research project based on video recordings of interpreter-mediated medical consultations which explores several linguistic and interactional aspects of a multi-party interaction in English and Italian. This study investigates the active participation of interpreters in some paediatric face-to-face consultations where they are called upon to translate for doctors, patients and their parents who do not share the same language. The patients are Italian children with a spinal injury and in these encounters they are the object of the verbal interaction between doctors and Italian parents but never actively interact with the American doctor. The study assumes, on the basis of evidence provided in literature, that interpreters do not merely repeat in another language every single utterance by other participants and it shows that, in fact, interpreters may not translate what is said by a primary participant, may undertake conversational initiatives and may choose a conversational axis and a specific orientation towards the other participants. Applying the categories of zero renditions and non-renditions (original utterances which are not translated by the interpreters and autonomous conversational initiatives respectively) the turn-by-turn analysis highlights some recurrent patterns in zero renditions and a high variability in non-renditions. For the first category the findings show that: i) the doctor was the “most translated” participant not only in terms of proportion of turns but also in terms of content; ii) parents’ turns addressed to the child were never translated; comments or assessments pertaining to compliance with prescriptions were not translated unless they contained open disagreement; iii) exchanges between parents were often only partially translated for the doctor. As for non-renditions, the interpreters’ conversational participation ranged from very active and patient-oriented to less active and more aligned with the doctor. In particular, one interpreter negotiated more favourable dietary prescriptions for the patient while another restricted the doctor’s dietary prescriptions in her renditions. This suggests that some discretionary decisions by the interpreters may come into play in medical settings in relation to the management of the interaction and the construction of interpersonal rapport. The comparison with data from countries where there are professional healthcare interpreting standards is recommended as a possible way to underpin the development of training tools to provide a more uniform quality of language servic
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
