Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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
Mean field model for turbulence transition in plane Poiseuille flow
No full textIn the pipe flow model of Dwight Barkley the main idea is to model pipe flow as an excitable, bistable medium. Using a one-dimensional FitzHugh-Nagumo-type reaction-advection-diffusion system with two variables the model captures qualitatively a surprising number of features of the turbulence transition in pipe flow. Motivated by this success, we here describe a derivation of a set of two 1+1-dimensional coupled differential equations for the closely related system of plane Poiseuille flow from the Navier-Stokes equation. The model contains terms for the production of turbulent kinetic energy, its transfer between the modes and its dissipation by viscous terms. The model shows a bifurcation to a non-trivial state and reflects some of the complex dynamics observed in direct numerical simulations

Pragmatic Case Studies as a Source of Unity in Applied Psychology
No full textTo unify or not to unify applied psychology: that is the question. In this article we review pendulum swings in the historical efforts to answer this question—from a comprehensive, positivist, “top-down,” deductive yes between the 1930s and the early 60s, to a postmodern no since then. A rationale and proposal for a limited, “bottom-up,” inductive yes in applied psychology is then presented, employing a case-based paradigm that integrates both positivist and postmodern themes and components. This paradigm is labeled “pragmatic psychology” and, its specific use of case studies, the “Pragmatic Case Study Method” (“PCS Method”). We call for the creation of peer-reviewed journal-databases of pragmatic case studies as a foundational source of unifying applied knowledge in our discipline. As one example, the potential of the PCS Method for unifying different angles of theoretical regard is illustrated in an area of applied psychology, psychotherapy, via the case of Mrs. B. The article then turns to the broader historical and epistemological arguments for the unifying nature of the PCS Method in both applied and basic psychology.Peer reviewe
Supporting Information for Ligand effects on Decarbonylation of Palladium-acyl Complexes
No full textEach form of data (e.g. NMR, crystallography, etc.) is stored within a single folder, in which they are further sorted out into specific folders (e.g. characterization of complexes, additive reactions, etc.). Computational work is uploaded and sorted within a separate master folder.These files contain primary data along with associated output from instrumentation supporting all results reported in "Ligand effects on Decarbonylation of Palladium-acyl Complexes". In this work we found: The influences of perturbations of supporting phosphine ligands on the dehydrative decarbonylation of (Ln)Pd(II)(Cl)-hydrocinnamoyl com-plexes (L = PtBu3, n = 1; L = PPh3, n = 2; L = dppe, n = 1) to yield styrene were studied through combined experiment and theory. Abstraction of chloride from the complexes by silver and zinc salts, as well as sodium tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate, enhanced the efficiency of styrene formation, according to the trend in L: PtBu3 > dppe > PPh3. DFT calculations corroborated the experimental findings and provided insights into the ligand influences on reaction step barriers and transition state structures. Key findings include: a stable intermediate forms after chloride abstraction, from which -hydride elimination is rate-determining, the low coordination number for the PtBu3 case lowers reaction barriers for all steps, and the trans disposition of two ligands for L = PPh3 contributes to low efficiency for styrene production in that case.Sponsorship: National Science Foundation, CHE-1901635Wiessner, Tedd C; Fosu, Samuel A; Parveen, Riffat; Vlaisavljevich, Bess; Tolman, William B; Rath, Nigam.

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
