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
Primi dati carpologici planimetrici dalla campagna di scavo 2022 presso il sito palafitticolo di San Giorgio e Santa Maria (Revine Lago e Tarzo, TV): tracce alimentari ed ecologiche
The wetlands of the lakes of San Giorgio and Santa Maria extend into the Vallata, a basin of glacial origin. The site is located between the municipalities of Revine-Lago and Tarzo (TV). The first archaeological excavations, carried out in the last decades of the last century, revealed a pile dwelling village of the late Neolithic and early Copper Age. A new multidisciplinary research campaign (the reLacus project) began in 2019 and aims to reconstruct the paleoenvironmental context and the settlement patterns. Nine sediment samples collected during the 2022 stratigraphic excavation are the subject of this research.
The carpological study aims to reconstruct the dietary habits, agricultural practices and some aspects of the paleoenvironment of the site. These planimetric data, although preliminary, provide information on the diet,
which was based on cereals and, above all, some fruits such as hazelnuts, blackberries, acorns, physalis, etc. The lakeside habitat, still present in the area today, can be reconstructed by analyzing the numerous spontaneous species
L’impiego dei rimontaggi ossei in due realtà del Paleolitico medio: Abric Romanì e Riparo Tagliente.
Lo studio e l’applicazione dei rimontaggi ossei, tecnica impiegata in archeologia a partire dagli anni 70' si basa sulla ricostruzione di elementi rotti o fratturati, al fine di stabilire i processi di formazione, risolvere questioni legate allo spostamento verticale dei resti, valutare i processi post-deposizionali e riconoscere le aree di attività dei Neandertaliani. Nel presente studio si propone l'applicazione di questa metodologia nei livelli musteriani I e Ja dell’Abric Romani (Capellades, Spagna) e nel livello 37 di Riparo Tagliente (VR, Italia)
Bone Refits and Implications for the Reconstruction of a Late Middle Palaeolithic Context: Unit A9 of Fumane Cave
Refitting studies provide valuable data to deepen topics such as assemblage formation processes, post-depositional dynamics, settlement and spatial patterns, operational chains, and the definition and integrity of stratigraphic units. The distribution of remains and documented connection lines provides a better understanding of past trajectories in space use and human behaviour. Despite this potential, faunal refits have been hitherto poorly applied in archaeological sites. This paper aims to present an innovative methodology applied for the first time to the Middle Palaeolithic Unit A9 (MIS3) of Fumane cave (Verona, Italy), integrating refits, spatial archaeology, and multivariate statistic techniques. The primary objective is to explore the Neanderthal use of the site during the occupation of Unit A9 and assess the synchronicity between anthropogenic structures and activity areas

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
