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
”موسموں کا عکس“ میں تاریخی اور ناسٹیجیائی عناصر: Historical and Nostalgic Elements in “Mosmon ka Akas”
No full textMan can never forget his past; some of his recollections linger on in his heart which leaves indelible impressions on his personality. This nostalgic attitude of man has deeply influence even literature. Even the Masterpieces of great authors contain historical and nostalgic elements. This nostalgic nature of man has not only influence novel, fiction, and poetry but even the travelogue too. The travelogue of Jamil Zubairi, “MOSMON KA AKAS” is its best example in this regard. Although Jamil Zubairi excelled for in the life race after coming to Pakistan but he never got rid himself of his childhood memories. When he happened to visit the same place again right after 35 to 40 years where he had spent his childhood, most of his past memories became fresh in his mind. This travelogue is the best anthology of his past recollections
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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

اردو شاعری میں معاشی مسائل کی پیش کش ۔۔۔۔۔۔ اجمالی جائزہ
No full textLiterature is the reflection of any society. It represents the civilization, culture, rituals along with the political and historical circumstances, it brings to light the economic life of the individual living in that society. The Financial difficulties become the part of literature at individual and collective level. We can get an awareness about the economy and the economic conditions of a society by reading the literature produced by that society. The Urdu Poetry remarkably presents the economic problems of the society. From the development of Deccan to the financial devastation of Delhi and the financial problems of today are a mighty theme the Urdu Poetry. Jaffar Zattali, Meer Taqi Meer, Aatish, Ghalib and other classical poets have vastly highlighted the financial problems of that era in their poems. Nazir Akabarabadi presented the social problems of the common man in his poetry, he too presented the financial problems of his age. The Progressive Writers Movement poets made the financial problems of India an important theme of their poetry. Dr Iqbal criticized both the capitalism and the socialist systems because both exploit the worker. Fiaz Ahmad Faiz, Noon Meem Rashid, Majeed Amjad and other modern poets have presented the financial problems with stylistic beauty.
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
