Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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
[[alternative]]Nagasaki's Qing-Dynasty Merchants and Edo Period Chinese Poems: An Investigation into Newly Discovered Books by Jiang Yun Ge and Shen Ping Xiang
[[abstract]]江戶時代因德川幕府實行鎖國政策,日本人不得渡海外出,只有長崎作為唯一對外開放港口,與中國以及荷蘭貿易往來,這樣溝通中日往來、進行文化交流的歷史革命,就只能落在來往於長崎的清代克商肩上。新發現的長崎清客江芸閣、沈萍香52封書,就記錄了許多尚不為人所知的他們在中日兩國之間起架設橋樑作用的具體事實,其中他們與賴山陽的來往,尤其引人注目。 1828,賴山陽66首後,他的朋友、長崎文人水野媚川便先後拜託江芸閣、沈萍香,希望能請中國著名文人對此做出評論,並儘可能納入那樣的著名叢書。在沈萍香的努力下,中國文人翁廣平、錢泳分別為作序和題詩,不僅成為認本漢詩向中國大陸反餽的一段佳話,還說明了當時的日本漢學再接受中國影響的同時,也力爭在漢字文化圈中更多地發出自己的聲音。During the Edo period, due to the Tokugawa Shogunate's closed policy, Japanese were not allowed to go overseas. The only exception was the port of Nagasaki, which facilitated the trade between China and Holland. Therefore, merchants in the Qing dynasty travelling between Nagasaki and China played a vital role for cultural exchange. The newly discovered 52 letters written by Jiang Yun Ge and Shen Ping Xiang, two of Nagasaki's Qing merchants, have revealed many unknown stories about Japan-Sino contacts during this period. One that is of particular interest is about their relationship with Raisanyo.At the end of 1828, Raisanyo wrote "Nihon Gakufu" containing 66 pieces. His friend, Mizunobisen of Nagasaki, asked Jiang Yun Ge and Shen Ping Xiang to invite reviews from renowned Chinese writers and to put the reviews into the famous "Zhi Bu Zu Zhai Journals". With the help of Shen Ping Xiang, Chinese writers Weng Guang Ping and Qian Yong wrote a prelude and a poem respectively for "Nihon Gakufu". This anecdote demonstrates how Japanese poems were re-exported to China. It is interesting to find that while Japanese sinologists were strongly influenced by Chinese culture, they tried hard to express their voices in the sinosphere.[[fileno]]JA01_2004_p10
Variations on the Author
“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
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
We 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
