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
Gerechtigkeit in der Integrativen Therapie – „Gerechtigkeit für das Lebendige“
No full textNach der Feststellung, dass die Gerechtigkeitsthematik im Integrativen Verfahren bisher fast nicht behandelt wurde, wird in diesem Aufsatz zunächst dem Sinn der Frage nach Gerechtigkeit nachgegangen und unter Einbezug post-moderner Philosophie mit dem Hinweis beantwortet, dass sie wertvoll sei, um aus Selbstgerechtigkeit herauszurütteln, dass sie Souveränität aufbaue, eine Sinnressource im Leid bilde und als Lebensaufgabe bleibend bedeutsam sei. In einem 2. Schritt wird eine systematische Heuristik zur Generierung Integrativer Gerechtigkeit entworfen und an einem Beispiel aus der therapeutischen Praxis konkretisiert. Der Text wird durch eine einführende Vorbemerkung von Johanna Sieper und Hilarion Petzold in seiner Wichtigkeit für die IT unterstrichenHaving stated that justice has scarcely been treated as a theme of Integrative Therapy so far, this article inquires first about the sense of questioning justice. It responds from the perspective of post-modern philosophy and declares that it is valuable to awake from self-righteousness, and to construct sovereignty, a resource of sense in suffering and a task of life. In a 2nd step a systematic heuristic to generate Integrative Justice is proposed and specified by an example out of the therapeutical praxis. This text is underlined in its importance for IT by an introductory note by Johanna Sieper und Hilarion Petzold.https://www.fpi-publikation.de/polyloge/25-2018-neuenschwander-b-sieper-j-petzold-h-g-gerechtigkeit-in-der-integrativen-therapie/peerReviewedpublishedVersio
Das Geheimnis des Herzens – Ein Plädoyer für eine Mystik der Freiheit
No full textDie westlichen Gesellschaften verändern sich nicht nur in der Zeit, sondern ändern ihre Zeitstruktur. Ihr Leitwert heisst Beschleunigung. Dies stellt uns persönlich, aber auch Institutionen und die Gesellschaft vor die Schwierigkeit, im zunehmenden Veränderungsdruck mitzuhalten und den Überblick zu behalten. In dieser Situation schafft Mystik der Freiheit in uns Zeitsouveränität, Sinn und Widerstandskraft. Der Artikel beschreibt, was Mystik der Freiheit ist (1), warum sie sich gerade heute bewährt (2) und wie sie geübt und kultiviert werden kann (3).Western societies do not only change with time, but alter their time structure. The key word is called acceleration. To deal with the mounting pressure to change is a challenge not only to ourselves, but also to institutions and the whole society as such in order not to lose control. In this situation Mysticism of Freedom gives us sovereignty in the face of time, sense and power of resistance. This article describes 1) what Mysticism of Freedom is, 2) why it works in today’s society, and 3) how it can be practised and cultivated (3).https://www.fpi-publikation.de/polyloge/11-2013-neuenschwander-b-das-geheimnis-des-herzens-ein-plaedoyer-fuer-eine-mystik-der-freiheit/peerReviewedpublishedVersio
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
