Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Connaissance et acceptation de l'identification sexuelles par les parents : quelles incidences sur la détresse psychologique des femmes cisgenres lesbiennes et bisexuelles ?
No full textIntroduction – Depuis les années 1990, les recherches s’intéressant à l’état psychologique des personnes homo- et bisexuelles ont montré que leur santé mentale est moins bonne que celle de la population générale. La stigmatisation dont souffrent les individus en raison de leur sexualité minoritaire et minorisée l’explique : ces personnes sont soumises à des facteurs de stress, lorsqu’elles sont visibles en tant que minorité sexuelle, mais aussi lorsque que leur identification sexuelle n’est pas sue. Autant la visibilité que l’invisibilité sont des potentiels facteurs de stress qui détériorent l’état psychologique des personnes LGB (lesbiennes, gaies, bisexuelles). Pour comprendre ces mécanismes, cet article s’intéresse aux liens entre la détresse psychologique (pensées suicidaires, état dépressif, anxiété) des femmes cisgenres lesbiennes et bisexuelles et la connaissance et l’acceptation parentale de leur identification sexuelle.
Matériel et méthodes – La collecte auto-administrée en ligne de l’enquête Virage LGBT (Ined, 2015-2016) permet de disposer d’un échantillon de convenance composé de 2 500 et 700 femmes cisgenres respectivement lesbiennes et bisexuelles. Le questionnaire interrogeant les pensées suicidaires, la dépression et l’anxiété, il est possible d’étudier, à l’aide de régressions logistiques dichotomiques, les différences d’état psychologique des répondantes selon la connaissance et l’acceptation parentale de leur identification sexuelle.
Résultats – Deux principaux résultats se dégagent. Pour les femmes cisgenres lesbiennes, la connaissance de l’homosexualité par les parents n’est pas associée à un meilleur état psychologique, quand les résultats pour celles bisexuelles sont moins nets. Mais si la connaissance parentale de l’homo- ou bisexualité n’est pas nécessairement associée à une moindre détresse, l’acceptation de cette identification l’est fortement.
Discussion-conclusion – La visibilité d’ensemble des personnes LGB est, à juste titre, un enjeu des luttes militantes contemporaines. En revanche les bénéfices d’une visibilité individuelle apparaissent moins évidents, notamment pour les femmes cisgenres lesbiennes et bisexuelles, dont l’identification est souvent niée ou considérée comme transitoire, et ce d’autant plus au sein de la famille où la sexualité féminine est particulièrement surveillée
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Differences in Intimate Partner Violence Reported by Lesbian, Bisexual, and Heterosexual Women
No full textThis article examines intimate partner violence inflicted against women by those women’s sexual identification and the violent partner’s sex. Drawing on the Violences et rapports de genre survey, the article shows that the acts of violence women in same-sex couples are subjected to are less intense and involve less physical or bodily violence than in different-sex couples, wherein female partners are exposed to more severe acts involving more sexual violence. In male–female couples, victim-reported acts of violence differ by victim’s self-reported sexual identification: heterosexual women report having been subjected to more physical violence than lesbian or bisexual women; the latter categories report more sexual violence. This article recalls the importance of having detailed data on couple and sexual trajectories for effective apprehension of report differences. It also highlights the need to investigate variability in the experience and perception of violence against women by couple type (same- or different-sex) and the sexual identification (lesbian, bisexual, heterosexual) of the woman reporting the acts of violence
