    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    Activación de los sistemas arquitectónicos compactos. La construcción del mecanismo de proyección diagonal en la obra de Adolf Loos

    [EN] The activation of compact architectural systems, built by attached spatial units –specialized, qualified, related to each other within a defined and regular container– requires specific tools capable of supplying the lack of dynamic, interstitial and communication spaces. The construction of Loos’ Raumplan implies the development of different relational mechanisms, based on the use of some of these tools. Among them, we can highlight one of great importance for its capacity to activate the interior space. Its construction arises from the evolution of fluctuation and frontality operations inherited from the architectural tradition and it gradually incorporates focal alterations that lead to the diagonal projection. Tools for the qualification of this diagonal perceptual mechanism are studied through a graphic analysis developed by the author.[ES] La activación de los sistemas arquitectónicos compactos, formados por unidades espaciales adosadas, especializadas, cualificadas, relacionadas entre sí en un contenedor definido y regular, requiere de herramientas específicas, capaces de suplir la carencia de espacios dinámicos, intersticiales y de comunicación. En la construcción del Raumplan, Adolf Loos desarrolla diferentes mecanismos relacionales. Entre ellos, destaca uno de gran capacidad dinamizadora del espacio interior. Su construcción parte de la evolución de las operaciones de fluctuación y frontalidad heredadas de la tradición arquitectónica para incorporar gradualmente alteraciones focales que conducen a la proyección diagonal. Mediante el análisis gráfico elaborado por el/la autor/a, se estudian las herramientas empleadas para la cualificación de este mecanismo perceptivo, que potencia la disociación entre el recorrido físico y perceptivo del observador.Toral Guinea, M.

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    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
