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
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
The 'Kinik Hoyuk' project. Archeological mission and historical research in Southern Cappadocia (Turkey) / Il progetto 'Kinik höyük'. Missione archeologica e ricerche storiche in Cappadocia meridionale (Turchia)
No full textExcavations at the site of Kinik Höyük, which is located in Southern Cappadocia (Turkey), started on late summer 2011. Our research group is investigating the pre-classical history of this site, focusing on the 2nd and 1st millennia B.C. During the Hittite Empire, the region to the south of the Tuz Gölü was called 'Lower Land' in the Hittite sources. While this region was part of the Hittite kingdom since the very beginning of its existence, the role it played in Hittite history deeply changed when, in the early 13th century B.C., Muwatalli II moved the capital from Hattuša to Tarhuntašša. Within Central Anatolia, Cappadocia is the only region where a certain degree of continuity with the former Hittite culture can be clearly shown. According to some scholars, this continuity could be explained by the survival of Tarhuntašša after the end of the Empire, but this hypothesis lacks clear evidence. This is the historical setting of the excavations at Kinik Höyük. During the first campaign, extensive excavations have been opened on operation B, on the top of the mound: here a Seljuk level with a dwelling area and an open space has been uncovered. Operations A and C, on the northern and south-western slopes of the mound, brought to light the rests of the citadel walls, which were first seen in 2010 geo-physical survey. Stratigraphy implies that the Late and Middle Iron Ages were the terminus ante quern for their edification
