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
Offsetting ERP risk through maintaining standardised application software
No full textThe focus of this book is on the most important class of enterprise system, namely Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. Organisations typically take the decision to employ ERP systems in an attempt to streamline existing processes. Once these systems are in place, however, their success depends on the effectiveness of the implementation, and on the additional benefits that can be obtained by further leveraging the technology. In this book, the editors have assembled some of the world’s best research on ERP systems, with a view to providing a foundation for second wave improvements to enterprise systems. Written primarily for managers and consultants, this book is also an ideal reference for business schools and researchers.\ud

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
Between Two Heads/ Tete a tete
No full textPublished in late 2007 this edited collection of essays with a foreword by Pascal Trarieux, curator, Musee des Beaux Arts, Nimes, was conceived by Seddon to address his overarching research theme focusing on the historiography of the British Civil Wars and its representation in history, myth, legend and visual art. Seddon, from the perspective of a fine artist, selected and invited a leading art historian, a historian specialising in Cromwell and the Civil War and a curator experienced in the field of artistic intervention to explore this field. In this sense it represents a set of research interests that could be termed historiographical practice. Through bringing together both English and French historical and art historical concerns, the text, published in French and English, created a dialogue across two interconnected cultural histories and their national research communities. An AHRC award of £16,345 (2007) also supported Seddon’s research and methodologies and organisation of this publication, which brings together a particular range of interdisciplinary interpretations, thereby presenting an innovative approach to the subject. Seddon commissioned and edited four essays. Professor Stephen Bann (Art History, Bristol University) discussed Delaroche’s painting of Cromwell looking at Charles in his coffin of 1831 and itemised his connection with English art and its influence on the establishment of genre historique in post-Napoleonic France; Professor Martyn Bennett, (History, Nottingham Trent), author of the most recently published biography of Cromwell, contributed a polemical essay on the historical background and historiographic echoes of the short-lived British Republic; Peter Seddon, in 'A Whiff of Sulphur', interrogated gossip, stories and legends about Cromwell, carefully relating them to the notion of art practice as an act of disaffirmation; and Barry Barker’s essay 'Postscript: Scenes from a Posthumous Wilderness' explores the meanings of posthumous executions, decapitations and curatorship
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
