Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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

Philosophical and psychological ideas in the post-civil war novels of Ramon J Sender.
PhDThe novels Sender has written since the Spanish Civil War
are interesting above all for their ideas. These centre on
two main topics: one, philosophical - the nature of reality -,
the other, psychological - the problems of adjustment to reality.
Such ideas and topics are not to be found in Sender's pre-Civil
War works; nor are these works characterised by the considerable
ambiguity and structural complexity of the later books which
challenge the reader with doubts and questions rather than
supply-him with answers.
The quasi-autobiographical novels, ih particular, among
Sender's post-Civil War works, suggest that the war was a watershed
in his life and thought. Certainly that is the major
experience with which his fictional counterparts have to
struggle - the non-autobiographical works often focus on other
traumatic experiences. Certainly too, when Sender came to rework
pre-Civil-War material in post-Civil War novels his originalviews
were either changed or - more frequently - questioned and
presented as being no more valid than a number of quite different
views. Moreover, the lives of Sender's fictional counterparts -
in his post-Civil War autobiographical novels - amount to hypothetical,
moral and existential variations on the author's own
life, before, during and after the Civil War.
The complex structure and ambiguity of Sender's post-Civil
War works are wedded to the philosophical and psychological
topics they present and explore. Structure and ideas both
reflect his response to the traumatic challenge which the
Spanish Civil War forced upon his understanding and capacity for
adjustment. In writing these works Sender has tried to shed
some light on the reality of his own life - including its unknown
and unknowable aspects - and by so doing confirmSto the attentive
reader, the profound seriousness and importance of Sender's
post-war writing
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
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
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
