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
Jesucristo y la salvación del hombre
No full textEl texto que presentamos responde a la necesidad que se nos presentó de ofrecer a nuestros alumnos de la Universidad FASTA (Mar del Plata) una síntesis de los temas que enseñamos en la cátedra de Teología. Por eso, tiene todos los límites propios de una síntesis de temas distintos y complejos, y conviene tener presente la perspectiva desde la cual abordamos los temas.
Pretendemos hablar de la salvación o bien de la felicidad y de la plenitud del hombre, de aquello que realmente puede satisfacer las ansias de realización que todo ser humano tiene. Por eso, nos abocamos a la realización espiritual, pues el hombre está hecho de tal manera que no puede ser feliz de cualquier forma, sino poniendo en acto sus potencialidades tanto sensitivas como espirituales.Fil: Ramos, Néstor Alejandro.

Socialization according to Margaret Archer. The relational reflexivity as a sociological reclassification
Full text linkMargaret Archer fue una socióloga inglesa que ha desarrollado, a lo largo de sus más de treinta años de trayectoria, la llamada teoría morfogenética. En su discusión con teóricos de la talla de Habermas y Bourdieu, Archer se ha ganado el reconocimiento de haber posibilitado un abordaje alternativo al propuesto por los nuevos clásicos de la disciplina. En este sentido, una de las propuestas de la autora viene de la mano del concepto de reflexividad relacional. Se trata de un concepto que reclasifica la idea de socialización al postular que el individuo, gracias a su capacidad reflexiva, toma parte activa y decisiva en ella. Esto último marca uno de los grandes aportes de la autora en lo que respecta a la construcción de herramientas teóricas que permitan abordar las relaciones entre agentes. En este trabajo se propone abordar el concepto de reflexividad relacional como una reconceptualización de los procesos de socialización que ha suscitado críticas por parte de estudiosos del enfoque morfogenético y que también ha planteado un debate con otras conceptualizaciones clásicas de dichos procesos.Margaret Archer was an English sociologist that developed, through more than thirty years of trajectory, the called morphogenetic approach. In her discussion with theorists like Habermas and Bourdieu, Archer has won the acknowledgment for have made possible an approach that is alternative to the proposed by the new classics of the discipline. In this sense, one of the proposals of the author comes by the hand of the concept of relational reflexivity. This concept reclassifies the idea of socialization when explaining that the agent, thanks to his reflexive capacity, takes an active and decisive part in that process. This marks one of the greatest contributions of the author in regards to the construction of theoretical tools that permit an approach to the relations in between agents. In this work, I propose an approach to the concept of relational reflexivity as a reconceptualization of the processes of socialization that has raised critiques by scholars in the morphogenetic approach and has planted a debate with classical conceptualizations of this socialization processes too.Facultad de Periodismo y Comunicación Socia
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
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
No full textWe 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
