    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    La propuesta metodológica para el desarrollo del uso de melismas en el R&B contemporáneo, es una estrategia de trabajo que pretende potenciar el uso de los melismas a partir de entrenamientos vocales secuenciales, a través de la conexión entre tres sistemas de estudio musical: la escuela tradicional europea, la escuela del jazz y la escuela de canto contemporáneo. Esta metodología está organizada en tres capítulos: Capítulo I: Entrenamiento para la creación melódica, Capítulo II: Entrenamiento para la agilidad, y Capítulo III: Entrenamiento de las herramientas estilísticas de los melismas. Cada uno de estos tres capítulos mencionados están estructurados metodológicamente por la secuencia didáctica de la pedagogía conceptual, la cual organiza los aprendizajes potenciando el aspecto afectivo (el interés por aprender un nuevo enfoque o un nuevo concepto), el aspecto cognitivo (el contexto conceptual del nuevo aprendizaje) y el aspecto expresivo (el entrenamiento del nuevo aprendizaje a partir de procedimientos organizados de manera secuencial), por medio conceptos, argumentos y procedimientos ilustrados en mentefactos.The methodological proposal for the development of the use of Riff and Runs in contemporary R&B, is a work strategy that aims to maximize the use of Riff and Runs from sequential vocal training, through the connection between three systems of musical study: the traditional European school, the jazz school and the contemporary singing school. This methodology is organized into three chapters: Chapter I: Training for melodic creation, Chapter II: Training for agility, and Chapter III: Training of the stylistic tools of the Riff and Runs. Each of these three mentioned chapters are structured methodologically by the didactic sequence of conceptual pedagogy, which organizes learning by developing the affective aspect (the interest in learning a new approach or a new concept), the cognitive aspect (the conceptual context of new learning) and the expressive aspect (the training of new learning from sequentially organized procedures), through concepts, arguments and procedures illustrated in ideograms

    "Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"

    No full text
    Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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
