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
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
Doping among polish paralympic sport-documented use of prohibited substances and methods by athletes with disabilities
Get PDFDoping to jedna z patologii współczesnego sportu. Wśród sportowców z niepełnosprawnością pojawiły się także próby jego stosowania, ale nigdy nie były szeroko rozpowszechnione. Po raz pierwszy pobrano próbki antydopingowe podczas zawodów paraolimpijskich, które odbyły się w Stoke Mandeville w 1984 r. Natomiast w Polsce wśród zawodników z niepełnosprawnością nastąpiło to w roku 2004. Celem niniejszej pracy jest przedstawienie udokumentowanego zastosowania zabronionych środków i metod przez polskich paraolimpijczyków podczas zawodów krajowych oraz także poza jego granicami podczas zawodów międzynarodowych. Jako materiał w badaniach posłużyły raporty badań antydopingowych w Polsce, zamieszczone w sprawozdaniach Komisji do Zwalczania Dopingu w Sporcie i Polskiej Agencji Antydopingowej oraz dane opublikowane w 2007 roku w doniesieniu opracowanym przez Zakład Badań Antydopingowych w Warszawie. Ponadto wykorzystano zamieszczone na stronie internetowej Międzynarodowego Komitetu Paraolimpijskiego zestawienie zawodników zawieszonych za stosowanie za stosowanie środków zabronionych. Do przedstawienia wyników wykorzystano metody statystyki opisowej – ilości (n) i procent (%). W okresie 2007 – 2017 sportowców z niepełnosprawnością poddano 67 kontrolom podczas których pobrano 416 próbek moczu i 6 próbek krwi i na ich podstawie stwierdzono 16 naruszeń przepisów antydopingowych, z czego aż 7 dotyczyło zawodników w podnoszeniu ciężarów, 3 w strzelectwie, 2 w lekkoatletyce i po jednym w innych dyscyplinach sportowych. W dostępnym zestawieniu IPC znajdują się nazwiska 3 polskich zawodników, których zdyskwalifikowano za stosowanie zabronionych środków podczas zawodów rozgrywanych poza granicami Polski. Na podstawie analizy wyników badań antydopingowych przeprowadzonych wśród sportowców z niepełnosprawnością do sportów wysokiego ryzyka stosowania zabronionych substancji należy zaliczyć podnoszenie ciężarów, do średniego strzelectwo, a pozostałe do dyscyplin niskiego ryzyka.Doping is one of the pathologies of modern sport. Among athletes with disabilities, there have also been attempts to use it, but they have never been widespread. For the first time, anti-doping samples were taken during the Paralympic Games held in Stoke Mandeville in 1984. In Poland, among disabled athletes, this occurred in 2006. The aim of this study is to present the documented use of prohibited substances and methods by Polish Paralympians during national and international competitions. Anti-doping research reviews in Poland, included in the reports of the Polish Anti-Doping Agency as well as data published in 2007 in a statement prepared by the Department of Antidoping Research in Warsaw, were used as materials in this study. In addition, a list of players who were suspended for the use of prohibited substances, posted on the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) website, was used in this study. Descriptive statistics methods were used to present the results - number (n) and percent (%). Between 2004-2017, athletes with disabilities underwent 67 controls during which 416 urine samples and 6 blood samples were collected. 16 anti-doping rule violations were found, among of which as many as 7 concerned weightlifting, 3 shooting, 2 athletics and one for each different sport. The list of IPC contains the names of three Polish players, who were disqualified for the use of prohibited substances during competitions held outside Poland.
Based on the anti-doping tests results analysis carried out among athletes with disabilities, weight lifting is considered as a sport with a high-risk of using prohibited substances, shooting as a medium-risk, and the other disciplines as a low-risk
