    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

    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

    No full text
    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

    REGRESO A LOS OR\ucdGENES DEL CAPITALISMO A la luz de Adam Smith, Cecil Pigou y Max Weber

    La presente investigaci\uf3n consiste en un acercamiento a las bases del capitalismo, el cual se realiz\uf3 a trav\ue9s del estudio de los aportes dados al capitalismo por sus representantes. Adam Smith, Cecil Pigou, y Max Weber, desde una \uf3ptica filos\uf3fica, pol\uedtica, social, con el objetivo de resaltar las fortalezas que tienen estos postulados, y la vigencia de los mismos en la b\ufasqueda de alternativas, que permitan el avance de los pueblos tomando en cuenta al hombre como eje central, vinculado a todo un sistema de valores. En funci\uf3n al logro de los objetivos se presentan tres fases dentro de la investigaci\uf3n, una primera a trav\ue9s de la investigaci\uf3n bibliogr\ue1fica de los autores originarios del capitalismo, resaltando cada uno de sus los postulados, con la finalidad de hacer un plataforma te\uf3rica que permita el posterior an\ue1lisis y contraste de las ideas primarias y lo que hoy d\ueda se evidencia en el capitalismo; en la segunda fase, se realizo una completa caracterizaci\uf3n de las sociedades que dicen ser capitalistas, por sus caracter\uedsticas econ\uf3micas, en un an\ue1lisis amplio, bajo varias dimensiones, que permitir\ue1n dibujar lo que el capitalismo era, es y ser\ue1 en las sociedades actuales y en la \ufaltima fase, la cual incluye el producto de la investigaci\uf3n, es visualizar bajo el lente de los padres del capitalismo, qu\ue9 ser\ueda hoy la sociedad bajo las dimensiones filos\uf3fica, social, pol\uedtica y econ\uf3mica, logrando una especie de esbozo ideal bajo los postulados originarios del capitalismo. Palabras Claves: Postulados Originarios del Capitalismo, Sociedades Capitalistas.ABSTRACTBACK TO THE ROOTS OF CAPITALISM In light of Adam Smith, Cecil Pigou, Max Weber This research will involve the completion of an approach to the foundations of capitalism, which is done through the study of capitalism contributions given by their representatives such as Adam Smith, Cecil Pigou, and Max Weber. From a philosophical, political, social perspective, with the aim of highlighting the strengths that have these postulates, and the effect thereof on the search for alternatives that allow the progress of peoples considering man as a central axis, linked a whole system of values. Depending on the achievement of objectives in three phases of research, a first through library research originating authors of capitalism, the principles of each of the authors considered to be highlighted , in order to make a platform appear allowing further analysis and comparison of the primary ideas and what today is evident in capitalism ; in the second phase , there will be a full characterization of the companies that claim to be capitalist , for their economic, in a comprehensive analysis under various dimensions , that will draw what capitalism was , is and will be in today\u92s societies and the last phase, which includes product research , is displayed under the lens of the fathers of capitalism , what would today \u91s society under the philosophical , social, political and economic dimensions , achieving a kind of ideal outline under the original assumptions of capitalism. Keywords: Native Postulates of Capitalism, Capitalist Societies<br
