    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

Since ancient times until the modern era, researchers have followed various approaches and methods in studying language, and boundaries have been defined for each of them to achieve desired results and reliable facts. Over the ages, scientists\u27 efforts have accumulated to establish language laws and monitor the changes that occur in it over time. The methodologies varied between descriptive, historical, comparative, standard, and generative, depending on the objectives desired by each researcher. In the modern era, diverse linguistic schools emerged in terms of principles, ideas, time, and place. The research seeks to provide an overview of these different methodologies and review the prominent linguistic schools and their scholars. The research consists of an introduction, two chapters, and a conclusion, covering various topics related to linguistic methodologies and schools of linguistic analysis in the modern era.

    تتناول هذه الدراسة اللغوية الحديثة نماذج التراكيب اللغوية للجملة الاسمية للشاعر حسن السوسي، وتستخدم المنهج التوليدي التحويلي كأساس للتحليل والوصف. تهدف الدراسة إلى توضيح الأنماط البنائية للجملة الاسمية، وتطبيق هذه الأسس والقواعد في دراسة شعر السوسي وتحليله. تستعرض الدراسة الثورة العلمية في الدراسات اللغوية، بدءًا من اكتشاف اللغة السنسكريتية والتطورات التاريخية والمقارنة، وصولاً إلى العالم اللغوي دي سوسير والمنهج التوليدي التحويلي الذي أثبت نجاحه في دراسة اللغات الإنسانية بشكل عام وتطبيقه على اللغة العربية. تواجه الدراسة بعض التحديات، مثل ضخامة إنتاج الشاعر حسن السوسي، وصعوبة المنهج التوليدي التحويلي بسبب الترجمات غير الدقيقة ونقص الدراسات التطبيقية في اللغة العربية. تتألف الدراسة من مقدمة تشرح الأسباب والدراسات السابقة والصعوبات المواجهة، وتمهيد يعرض حياة الشاعر والمنهج التوليدي التحويلي، وفصلين يتناولان أنماط الجملة الاسمية البسيطة والمركبة، وخاتمة تلخص النتائج الرئيسية للدراسة. تساهم هذه الدراسة في إثراء اللغة العربية وتطويرها من خلال تطبيق المنهج التوليدي التحويلي على الشعر العربي المعاصر.This recent linguistic study examines the linguistic structures of nominal sentences in the poetry of the poet Hassan Al-Sousi. It employs the transformative generative approach as a basis for analysis and description. The study aims to clarify the structural patterns of nominal sentences and apply these principles and rules in studying and analyzing Al-Sousi\u27s poetry. The study reviews the scientific revolution in linguistic studies, starting from the discovery of the Sanskrit language and historical developments and comparisons, up to the linguist De Saussure and the transformative generative approach, which has proven successful in studying human languages in general and its application to the Arabic language. The study faces some challenges, such as the vast body of work produced by the poet Hassan Al-Sousi, and the difficulty of the transformative generative approach due to inaccurate translations and a lack of applied studies in the Arabic language. The study consists of an introduction that explains the reasons, previous studies, and challenges encountered. It includes a preface that presents the poet\u27s life and the transformative generative approach, followed by two chapters addressing the patterns of simple and compound nominal sentences. The conclusion summarizes the main findings of the study. This study contributes to enriching and developing the Arabic language through the application of the transformative generative approach to contemporary Arabic poetry

    يستكشف هذا المقال الكلمات القرآنية التي تحمل معاني متعددة بناءً على القراءات المختلفة للقرآن. ويسعى إلى إثبات أن الاختلافات في الأشكال الصرفية لبعض الكلمات الواردة في التلاوات القرآنية قد أثرت هذه الكلمات بشكل كبير بمعاني متنوعة. وهذه المعاني لا تتعارض مع بعضها البعض؛ وبدلا من ذلك، كل منهما يكمل الآخر. وهذا يوفر لنا فهمًا واسعًا وواضحًا وشاملاً لكلمات النص القرآني.This article explores Quranic words that carry multiple meanings based on different recitations of the Quran. It seeks to establish that variations in the morphological forms of certain words mentioned in the Quranic recitations have significantly enriched these words with diverse meanings. These meanings do not contradict each other; instead, each complements the other. This provides us with a broad, clear, and comprehensive understanding of the words in the Quranic text

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    Get PDF
    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
