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
Variations on the Author
“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
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
Estudio sobre la competitividad de las mujeres investigadoras de la Universidad de Guanajuato. Reflexiones sobre la equidad de género.
El presente trabajo tiene por objeto el análisis de la competitividad en las mujeres investigadoras adscritas al Sistema Nacional de Investigadores de la División de Ciencias Económico Administrativas de la Universidad de Guanajuato, que se encuentran en diferentes departamentos. Esta Investigación se centra en el análisis de entrevistas realizadas que dan particularidad a los temas competitividad, equidad de género laboral y techo de cristal.El documento encuentra su relevancia en el lugar que se le da a la mujer en el campo laboral, ya que desde tiempo atrás se vienen arrastrando problemas de inequidad y falta de oportunidades entre el hombre y la mujer, dado que no hay investigaciones realizadas al respecto anteriormente, la tarea principal es evidenciar los resultados encontrados para ser analizados y posteriormente difundidos a los interesados. El estudio realizado es de naturaleza cualitativa empleando el método etnológico y hermenéutico analizando así las respuestas brindadas.Los resultados obtenidos reflejan la situación de la mujer en su labor de investigadora y su puesto en el seno familiar. Estas mujeres son competitivas en su trabajo, sin embargo, no hay avance en la equidad de género laboral por diversos factores negativos que afectan a la cultura del país, lo que crea una necesidad de cambio de educación valoralThe present work takes the analysis of the competitiveness as an object in the investigative women assigned to the Economic National System of Investigators of the Division of Administrative Sciences of the University of Guanajuato, which are in different departments. This Investigation centers on the analysis of interviews realized that give peculiarity to the topics competitiveness, equity of labor genre and crystal roof.The document finds its relevancy in the place that is given to the woman in the labor field, since from time behind problems of inequity have crawling and lacking in opportunities between the man and the woman, since there are no investigations realized on this matter previously, the main task is to demonstrate the results found to be analyzed and later spread to the interested parties. The realized study is of qualitative nature using the ethnological and hermeneutic method analyzing this way the offered answers.The obtained results reflect the situation of the woman in its researcher's work and its position in the bosom of the family. These women are competitive in its work, nevertheless, there is no advance in the equity of labor genre for diverse negative factors that they affect to the culture of the country, what creates a need for change of education valoral
