Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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 PDFWe 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 PDFWe 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
ORCHID ISLAND,YAMI,WHERE TO GO ？
No full text[[abstract]]本畫輯題為《蘭嶼•雅美•何處去》繪畫創作與研究，看似將創作
，研究兩個主題並列相同地位；然而，於順序上是由1982年開始的一連
串收集和速寫資料以及田野調查，有感而發的繪畫創作；包含有油彩、
版畫、水彩等各類素材的嚐試摸索，最後將作品的心得感想和研究報告
編輯而成的一本畫集。
蘭嶼是民國三十九年臺東地方政府，因日據時代的『紅頭嶼』地名
粗俗而改名，以當地特產蝴蝶蘭而改稱為『蘭嶼』（陳國鈞，1955），
島上二千多的雅美族人長久受日本佔據的刻意保留，過著漁撈農耕的傳
統生活，光復後在民國五十六年開放觀光，一時廣受國內外的媒體競相
報導之下，湧入不計其數的遊客，在無知的干擾及民族優越感的言談舉
止中，使得雅美族人對自己的土地和傳統產生疑惑，而迫不及待的接受
異文化文明的衝擊和洗禮，年輕人不再留戀蘭嶼，而嚮往臺灣物質文明
，不再穿著傳統服飾而學習平地人的生活方式；傳統與現代的矛盾，讓
雅美族人不知何去何從迷失方向。因此作者在進行文化與藝術脈絡變遷
之調查時，乃擇取人文的關懷及對環境省思的角度下切入主題，作為繪
畫創作的焦點，透過自己在藝術形式的探索嚐試時，將主題內涵訴諸於
形式中，與觀賞者共同關心這塊土地。在作品及報告中，尚有許多有待
解決及反省之處，敬請先進師長指導見諒。
本畫輯分二部份，第一部份是油彩及版畫作品集，從1986∼1994年
之間，抽出36張作品發表（包括油彩25幅、版畫11幅）。第二部份是研
究報告，共分八個章節；由第一章，創作動機，淺談個人以此題為繪畫
創作的起因。第二章，創作理念，是敘述自己作品內涵上的表達意向。
第三章，創作依據，旨在探討自己創作時受到各派前輩大師的影響和刺
激，進而汲取營養，以求突破。第四章，創作形式，則就作品的顯在層
面來分析，題材、造型及色彩上的表現。第五章，創作內容，則概說蘭
嶼現況與當地風土民情。第六章，作品說明，是從十件作品中談談創作
時的內涵意義和形式分析。第七章，創作省思與展望，則是檢討自己現
在的作品及研擬未來發展的方向。第八章，結語，將做最後的感想及總
結。
全部資料及過程於民國七十二年至八十三年進行，曾有多幅作品發
表於各項展覽畫集上。從田野調查工作、繪畫創作及報告撰寫期間，承
蒙陳銀輝教授（創作指導教授），李焜培教授（論文指導教授）的細心
指導；還有諸位師長和朋友們的鼓勵及協助，方得順利完成。並感謝雅
美族的父老兄弟姊妹，熱情親切的提供資料。尤其感謝這些年來爸媽兄
嫂的鼓勵和陪我學習成長並協助我完稿的妻子若蘭以及兒子培元、培升
的充分配合；現僅以本畫輯的付梓，獻給我摯愛的家人和雅美族父老；
並衷心期盼蘭嶼雅美族的原住民文化和藝術永遠長存。
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.
