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
Make the modern city. Cali in the first half of the 20th century.
Este es un libro con sabor a manifiesto que refiere la necesidad de mayores espacios de encuentro y diálogo entre quienes siguen a su manera la trama histórica de Cali, y desde ahí, con un público bastante variopinto tal cual la sociedad de nuestros días. Pensado y escrito al mismo tiempo en que en esta ciudad las voces de jóvenes llamaban a tomarse por asalto los cielos e infiernos, recopila doce ensayos producidos por historiadores, historiadoras y en menor medida por sociólogos y científicos políticos que desde hace un buen tiempo han inscrito la perspectiva del tiempo en cada uno de sus análisis para evitar recaer en un presentismo ingenuo. Trece textos que en conjunto permiten parafrasear el epígrafe propuesto para escenificar una visita a la Cali del pasado, no tanto por amor y reverencia a ese pasado, tal cual el cuadro febril del melancólico anticuario que con cada vuelta de sol aumenta sus padecimientos, sino mejor desde el consabido gesto nietzscheano que celebra escapar de ese rebaño que no sabe qué significa el ayer ni el hoy por vivir atado al poste del momento. Textos que nos hablan de la Cali pensada, planificada, construida, controlada y hasta a la deriva, de sus impresos, actores, de sus pasiones, de cuerpos reverenciados entre el sport y la bohemia, de impresos constitutivos de universos simbólicos y de papel, de herencias y legados, de escrituras y testamentos.

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
Pablo Rodríguez. Historia de un crimen pasional: el caso Zawadzky
Durante la última década la bibliografía sobre el crimen, la policía, la justicia y los casos judiciales ha ganado fuerza en el mundo hispánico. Toda una corriente historiográfica ha virado su mirada hacia las gacetas criminológicas, el periodismo sobre el crimen, los archivos policiales, los debates criminológicos, etc., no tanto para resaltar los linderos del consabido control social, sino para entrever el sustrato sociocultural inherente a ese universo. A propósito, para el caso de la historiografía colombiana, el libro de Pablo Rodríguez se presenta como una apuesta muy bien lograda; toda una microhistoria en la cual Cali y el utillaje mental de una época quedan a nuestro alcance en cada uno de sus veintiún capítulos cortos, al final acompañados de unas conclusiones ante las cuales es difícil no estar de acuerdo.During the last decade the bibliography on crime, the police, justice and court cases has gained strength in the Hispanic world. An entire historiographic current has turned its gaze towards criminological gazettes, journalism on crime, police files, criminological debates, etc., not so much to highlight the boundaries of the well-known social control, but to glimpse the sociocultural substratum inherent to that universe. By the way, in the case of Colombian historiography, Pablo Rodríguez's book is presented as a very successful bet; a whole microhistory in which Cali and the mental tools of an era are within our reach in each of its twenty-one short chapters, at the end accompanied by some conclusions with which it is difficult not to agree
