Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene in full term pregnant women and ther newborn babies as biological exposure index to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [L’1-idrossipirene nelle urine di gravide a termine e nei loro neonati come indice di esposizione ad idrocarburi aromatici policiclici]
No full text'Trans-placental' exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in newborn babies of mothers smoking during pregnancy was investigated and compared with that in newborn babies of non smoking mothers. PAHs intake was evaluated by measuring urinary levels of 1-hydroxypyrene, a pyrene metabolite and a biological index of exposure. 42 mothers-babies couples (31 smoking and 11 non smoking mothers) were examined. Urinary concentrations of 1-hydroxypyrene in 42 controls, 18 non smoking and 24 smoking women, were determined at the same time. Mean values of 1-hydroxypyrene in non smoking women in labour and their babies were 0.15 (SD 0.11) and 0.15 (SD 0.10) μg/g creatinine respectively. In controls the mean was 0.15 (SD 0.09) μg/g creat. Mean values of 0.23 (SD 0.17) and 0.20 (SD 0.15) μg/g creatinine were determined in smoking mothers and their newborn babies, whereas in smoking controls 1-hydroxypyrene was 0.42 (SD 0.45) μg/g creatinine. The highest levels of 1-hydroxypyrene were detected in smokers (both controls and women in labour). Babies of smoking mothers also showed a higher mean value of 1-hydroxypyrene than babies of non smokers. However the only statistically significant difference found was between smoking and non smoking controls
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
