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
Subtropical Neighbourhood Design
No full textThis report is a result of a research project commissioned by The Centre for Subtropical Design focussing on the design principles for subtropical neighbourhoods. The Centre was formed in 2003 as a joint initiative between Brisbane City Council and Queensland University of Technology and is undertaking a number of advocacy and research projects.\ud
"The Centre's main objective is to inspire regionally appropriate building design and construction practices that accommodate a yearly climate cycle from mild and sun drenched, to chilly and glorious, to sultry and sweltering. This compels design responses that are positive, rather than indifferent, to the climate and landscape - design which subtropical features are neither under nor over-stated, but simply exist to complement the preferences of people and their lifestyles" (CSD 2004)\ud
A primary driver for this research is to improve the design of residential subdivisions within a subtropical environment. One of the issues identified in framing the research question is that subdivisions are purely that - subdivisions - removed from other uses, from different forms of housing and the life of urban settlement. At worst, a subdivision no matter how well designed, is the basis of urban sprawl and defining subtropical urban sprawl is not a useful contribution to debates about urban quality in South East Queensland. In order to work towards more sustainable urban outcomes, this research considers a desirable urban structure for settlements that comprise neighbourhoods, towns and cities. Residential subdivisions must be seen as neighbourhoods or parts thereof. The research question has become "what is the form of residential subdivision within the context of a subtropical neighbourhood?"
