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
Zoo House
Get PDFLa revalorización de la casilla de madera ubicada en el Jardín Zoológico de la ciudad de La Plata, que fuera la 1º sede de la Sociedad de Avicultura de la Provincia de Buenos Aires y la oficina donde cumplía funciones de Director Sr Alfredo Florencio Plot, propone generar vínculos identitarios entre este espacio histórico y la comunidad platense.
La puesta en valor de este patrimonio arquitectónico proporcionará un recurso que permitirá reestablecer la red de relaciones con la comunidad reforzando y reencauzando los lazos de identidad con la ciudad.
Las actividades sugeridas proporcionarán un punto estratégico de interés dentro del Jardín Zoológico que favorecerá el desarrollo económico y cultural de la región.The revaluation of the wooden house located in the Zoological Garden of the city of La Plata, which was the 1st headquarters of the Poultry Society of the Province of Buenos Aires and the office where he served as Director Mr. Alfredo Florencio Plot, proposes to generate Identity links between this historical space and the community of La Plata.
The enhancement of this architectural heritage will provide a resource that will allow us to reestablish the network of relations with the community by reinforcing and redirecting the ties of identity with the city.
The suggested activities will provide a strategic point of interest within the Zoological Garden that will favor the economic and cultural development of the region.Facultad de Arte
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
Las representaciones visuales en los templos de la iglesia católica del Arzobispado de La Plata
Get PDFEl presente proyecto tiene por objetivo estudiar las representaciones visuales vinculadas con los dones y virtudes proclamados por el culto católico, presentes en los templos de la Iglesia Católica del Arzobispado de La Plata. En base a ello, se buscó explorar las representaciones visuales presentes en los templos católicos de la arquidiócesis de La Plata, entendiendo que es un espacio de análisis desde el cual es posible comprender dicho universo sígnico -y sus rasgos particulares-, desde la mirada del diseño en comunicación visual.
Se abordó el análisis en un conjunto de materiales visuales de modalidad estática y permanente, como esculturas, bajorrelieves, pinturas, murales, estandartes, vitraux, entre otros, presentes en los templos a partir de los cuales se construyó una muestra de estudio -no exhaustiva- sobre la cual aplicó una matriz de análisis. La importancia de esta matriz radica en que permitió dar cuenta de aspectos pertinentes y de importancia para el análisis de esas representaciones visuales.
Así, se produjo material sistemático y actualizado de los templos y sus representaciones visuales a partir de lo cual se generó un catálogo que ha facilitado la tarea de reconocimiento y análisis de las representaciones visuales en cada uno de los templos observados. El diseño del catálogo presenta diferentes tipos de imágenes en articulación con los textos que permiten explicar el análisis de las mismas. Cuenta con una portada general, un índice y una portada por cada iglesia analizada que incluye su ubicación y año de construcción, lo que permite hacer un recorrido didáctico y visual sobre la realidad abordada. Cada portada de las iglesias analizadas contiene imágenes de la fachada, la nave central y el altar, como puntos clave que permiten visualizar las características de los templos relevados.Fil: Blanco, María Cecilia.

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
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
