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
Dérivés de s-tétrazine et de triphénylamine : du design aux applications
No full textThis work deals with the synthesis and the spectroscopic and electrochemical studies of donor-acceptor systems which have been designed for electrofluorochromism, two-photon absorption and photovoltaics. s-Tetrazine has been chosen as the acceptor for its high electron affinity, its emission properties and its ability to structure a layer thanks to intermolecular interactions (--stacking). Triphenylamine has been selected as the donor for its low ionization potential, its spectroscopic properties (high absorption and emission) and the easy modulation of its properties by changing the substituents. Seven triphenylamine derivatives have been synthesized as well as eighteen new multichromophoric compounds based on tetrazine and triphenylamine which have five different links and various substituents. They have been characterized by electrochemistry and spectroscopy (stationary and time-resolved). The study of the modulation of the photophysic properties with the controle of the redox state has been then done. Ten compounds having a conjugating link between the tetrazine and the tetrazine have been synthesized and characterized by electrochemistry and spectroscopy. Given their properties, six of them have been tested in two-photon absorption and two of them have been selected to be used as a donor in an organic solar cell. Moreover two reactions have been examined in depth in order to explain some unexpected synthesis results.Les travaux présentés dans ce mémoire de thèse portent sur la synthèse et l’étude des propriétés spectroscopiques et électrochimiques de systèmes donneur-accepteur conçus pour des applications variées telles que l’électrofluorochromisme, l’absorption à deux photons et le photovoltaïque. La s-tétrazine a été choisie comme accepteur pour sa forte affinité électronique, ses propriétés émissives remarquables et sa capacité à s’organiser via des interactions intermoléculaires de type --stacking. La triphénylamine a été sélectionnée comme donneur pour son faible potentiel d’ionisation, ses propriétés spectroscopiques (fortes absorption et émission) et la modulation facile de ses propriétés par changement de substituants. Sept dérivés de triphénylamine ont été synthétisés ainsi que dix-huit nouveaux composés multichromophoriques à base de tétrazine et de triphénylamine présentant cinq liens différents et des substituants variés. Ils ont été caractérisés par électrochimie et spectroscopie (stationnaire et résolue en temps). L’étude de la modulation de leurs propriétés photophysiques par le changement de l’état rédox a ensuite été réalisée. Dix composés présentant un lien permettant la conjugaison entre la triphénylamine et la tétrazine ont été synthétisés et caractérisés par électrochimie et spectroscopie. Compte-tenu de leurs propriétés, six d’entre eux ont été testés en absorption à deux photons et deux ont étés retenus pour être utilisés comme donneurs dans une cellule photovoltaïque organique. Par ailleurs, deux réactions ont été étudiées en détail pour expliquer la formation des produits obtenus, inattendus à un premier abord

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
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
