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
Seminario de la Basilica Menor del Señor de los Milagros
No full textSituado en el municipio de San Benito Abad, Sucre, el Seminario de San Benito Abad constituye un emblema de la identidad religiosa y cultural de la región Caribe colombiana. Fundado en 1920, este inmueble albergó la formación de sacerdotes del Vicariato Apostólico de San Jorge hasta 1970, y dejó una huella espiritual y educativa indeleble en la historia local.Como parte de un conjunto institucional clave, junto con la Basílica Menor del Señor de los Milagros y el Convento de las Hermanas Misioneras Catequistas, el seminario integra un paisaje cultural profundamente marcado por la religiosidad popular. Este arraigo se remonta al siglo XVII, con la llegada de la imagen del Cristo crucificado traída desde La Coruña (España), cuya devoción ha dado origen a importantes festividades anuales que atraen a miles de peregrinos de todo el país.AbandonadoSan Benito de Abad, Sucre, ColombiaURL de Google MAPS...Carrera 14 #11-32"San Benito Abad, situado en el departamento de Sucre, Colombia, posee una identidad profundamente marcada por la religiosidad y la historia cristiana. Destaca la presencia de tres instituciones clave: la Basílica Menor del Señor de los Milagros, el Seminario de San Benito Abad y el Convento de la Congregación de Hermanas Misioneras Catequistas, que han sido fundamentales para su desarrollo espiritual y social.
Poco después de la fundación de la Villa en 1677, el gobernador Benito de Figueroa y Barrantes encargó, desde la península ibérica, una imagen de Cristo crucificado, esculpida en La Coruña y hecha con maderas africanas, como legado a la comunidad. Esta imagen arribó a San Benito Abad en 1678 y despertó una profunda devoción entre habitantes y peregrinos, convirtiéndose en un referente religioso regional.
A lo largo del año, se celebran dos festividades en honor al Señor de los Milagros: una en marzo, centrada en el perdón y la reconciliación, y otra el 14 de septiembre, fecha del “cumpleaños” del Señor, que atrae a miles de peregrinos de Colombia y del mundo.
El Seminario de San Benito Abad, fundado en 1920 y activo hasta cerca de 1970, desempeñó un papel esencial en la formación de sacerdotes para el Vicariato Apostólico de San Jorge, cuya sede estaba en la Basílica local. Aunque el seminario cerró tras la supresión del vicariato en 1969, su legado espiritual y educativo perdura en la historia del municipio.""El Seminario de San Benito Abad, Bien de Interés Cultural (BIC), constituye un inmueble de alto valor patrimonial, expresado en tres dimensiones fundamentales: histórico, estético y simbólico, que lo consolidan como un referente identitario en el contexto de la región Caribe colombiana.
Este inmueble representa un testimonio material de los procesos de evangelización y formación religiosa en el municipio de San Benito Abad desde el siglo XVII. Su establecimiento está estrechamente vinculado con la consolidación del orden social, espiritual y educativo durante la época colonial y republicana. La continuidad de su uso —como centro de formación sacerdotal y espacio de integración comunitaria— refuerza su papel como eje articulador del tejido histórico y religioso de la localidad.
El seminario destaca por su arquitectura vernácula de filiación colonial y republicana, evidenciada en su planta en “L”, tipología típica de su época, y en el uso de materiales tradicionales como el adobe, ladrillo y acabados con calados, cornisas y vanos ornamentales. Su diseño bioclimático —con corredores amplios, patios internos y muros de gran espesor— responde eficazmente a las condiciones climáticas locales, garantizando ventilación natural y confort térmico. Este equilibrio entre funcionalidad, técnica constructiva y lenguaje formal le confiere un notable valor estético y ambiental, en armonía con el entorno urbano y con las edificaciones religiosas circundantes, como la Basílica Menor del Señor de los Milagros.
Más allá de su valor arquitectónico, el seminario constituye un símbolo de la tradición católica del municipio, asociado a la devoción al Santo Patrono y a la formación espiritual de generaciones de creyentes.
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
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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
