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
Interaction skills of psychiatric caregivers : a comparative analysis of represented speech in peer conversations
La pratique du soin en psychiatrie est plurielle et organisée selon un rythme régulier de réunions entre professionnels. Ces moments particuliers ont plusieurs objectifs : transmettre l'actualité clinique des patients de la structure afin d'assurer une continuité du soin, mais également discuter du projet de soin, conçu selon la pathologie du patient dont il est question. Lors de ces entrevues pluriprofessionnelles, les soignants utilisent de nombreuses séquences de discours représenté (« X a dit Y »). Nous proposons dans ce travail d'étudier, au regard de l'analyse conversationnelle, des séquences rapportées afin de déterminer de quelques pratiques linguistiques et professionnelles des soignants en psychiatrie. Pour ce faire, nous avons enregistré 15 heures 30 de réunion dans une unité de soins de la région lyonnaise. À partir de ces données, nous avons mené quelques analyses quantitatives afin de déterminer certaines tendances dans les usages des discours rapportés, puis nous avons réalisé des analyses qualitatives portant sur les manifestations de ces séquences dans la conversation, leurs fonctions, et à partir de ces éléments nous avons proposé une redéfinition de ce qu'est la relève infirmière en psychiatrie. Dans les pratiques des soignants enregistrés, les deux objectifs précédemment mentionnés ne sont effectivement pas les seuls en jeu : nous avons distingué trois « types » de transmission, le « faire-savoir », qui vise à donner à entendre aux collègues l'actualité clinique des patients ; le « faire-apprendre », qui tend à actualiser des savoirs portant sur les pratiques du soin, et enfin le « faire-connaître », qui correspond à la mutualisation des vécus et des émotions des participants aux réunions.The psychiatric care is plural and organized according to a regular rhythm of meetings between professionals. These particular moments have several objectives: to transmit the clinical news of the patients in order to ensure a continuity of care, but also to discuss the care project, designed specifically for each patient. During these multi-professional gatherings, the caregivers use numerous sequences of reported speech ("X said Y"). In this work, we propose to study, with regard to conversational analysis, represented speeches in order to determine some linguistic and professional practices of psychiatric caregivers. To do so, we recorded 15 hours and 30 minutes of meetings in a psychiatric care unit in France. From these data, we conducted some quantitative analyses in order to determine certain tendencies in the uses of the reported speeches, then we carried out qualitative analyses concerning the manifestations of these sequences in the conversation, their functions, and from these elements we proposed a redefinition of what is the nursing handover in psychiatry. Within the practices of the caregivers recorded, the two objectives mentioned above are not the only ones at stake: we have distinguished three "types" of transmission, the first aims to give colleagues an understanding of the patients' clinical situation; the second tends to update knowledge about care practices, and finally the last is about sharing of the experiences and emotions of the caregivers during the meetings

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
