    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

    Método de adquisición de la L2 -español- a través de a inferencia de las reglas gramaticales, concretamente a partir de la exposición de distintos contenidos gramaticales en textos de especialidad relativos a su proyecto formativo (económicos, políticos, jurídicos, periodísticos). El itineriario educativo está centrado en el descubrimiento de las reglas recurriendo a las contribuciones aportadas por las ciencias cogniticas al terreno de la glotodidáctica

    Partiendo de la idea de que se aprende apoyándose en los conocimientos que cada hablante posse, se ha llegado a la eleccion de textos de especialidad relativos a los intereses de estudiantes de Ciencias Políticas. Por lo tanto, los diversos contenidos gramaticales se muestran a través de textos auténticos de especialidad (económicos, jurídicos, políticos, etc.) donde al estudiante se le pide que reflexione sobre determinados aspectos gramaticales para que formule la regla. A ese momento le sigue un segundo tiempo de verificación de sus hipótesis

    A la hora de afrontar la enseñanza/aprendizaje de una lengua extranjera, los estudios más recientes en el ámbito de la psicología cognitiva –en concreto, la teoría de los esquemas sostiene que aprendemos algo nuevo sobre la base de lo que ya sabemos (D. Corno, G. Pozzo:1993)- recomiendan y avalan el uso de los lenguajes específicos, pues éstos nos permiten servirnos de los conocimientos previos de nuestros alumnos y además poseen también todas las características fonéticas, morfosintácticas, léxicas y retóricas de la lengua común; la única diferencia entre un lenguaje y otro radica en la teoría que expresan (Hutchinson:1987 )

    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

    Full text link
    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
