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
Literary representation of the disturbing sound change in the novel Mene by Ramón Díaz Sánchez
El estudio analiza en la novela Mene (1936) de Ramón Díaz Sánchez, la representación de los cambios en los so-nidos ambientales, producto de la explotación petrolera y de su impacto en los habitantes de una región Venezo-lana. El narrador utiliza el sonido como eje portador de los cambios drásticos generados por la naciente indus-tria, valiéndose de imágenes auditivas simples, símiles y metáforas. La construcción de conceptos metafóricos se aborda desde la teoría de Lakoff y Johnson (1980). La metodología es de corte analítico documental donde se devela el tratamiento de las categorías emergentes por parte del autor. Los resultados destacan como un grupo de metáforas se desarrollan a partir de un con-cepto metafórico particular, derivado de un modo de comprensión del mundo proveniente de la experiencia. Se concluye que el autor a través de la obra, expresa formas complejas de pensamiento sistémico, donde las figuras literarias representan constructos que conducen el encadenamiento lógico de las ideas.The study analyzes in the novel Mene (1936) by Ramón Díaz Sánchez, the representation of changes in envi-ronmental sounds, the product of oil exploitation and its impact on the inhabitants of a Venezuelan region. The narrator uses sound as a carrier for the drastic changes generated by the nascent industry, using simple audi-tory images, similes and metaphors. The construction of metaphorical concepts is approached from the theory of Lakoff and Johnson (1980). The methodology is do-cumentary analytical cut where the treatment of emer-ging categories by the author is revealed. The results stand out as a group of metaphors are developed from a particular metaphorical concept, derived from a way of understanding the world from experience. It is concluded that the author, through the work, expresses complex forms of systemic thinking, where literary figures re-present constructs that drive the logical chain of ideasMontero Morillo, Alicia Cecilia-0000-0002-3282-1183-600Quintero Suárez, Mayli Maria
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
