    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

    Abstract We decided to evaluate a patient who was diagnosed with cortical-basal ganglionic degeneration from a clinical, instrumental and neuropsychological perspective. Our aim was to employ a new instrumental tool, functional magnetic resonance, in order to evaluate his cortical damage. We then followed the pathological course for 1 year and tested the patient again: we discuss the results of our evaluation, having an overview of the literature on the topic. In particular, we focused our attention on his apraxia, trying to suggest a dynamic and anatomical model to guarantee a possible explanation of his behavior
