    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

    Bibliography The Louis B. Sohn Collection on International Relations Twenty-five copies of the Dedication Edition were produced. Professor Louis B. Sohn\u27s original gift consists of some 3200 titles listed in this edition of the bibliography. The Louis B. Sohn Collection on International Relations is a living collection, however. Law Librarians at the University of Georgia will select additions to the collection, using the same criteria Professor Sohn used in building the original collection. It is our hope that Professor Sohn\u27s scholarly successors will use this distinguished library to promote the cause of international harmony.

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    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

    Louis B. Sohn: Present at the Creation

    No full text
    Louis B. Sohn was my grandfather in the law. I call him that because I first met him more than fifty years ago, when my late father, Kwang Lim Koh, wrote his S.].D. dissertation at Harvard Law School under Professor Sohn\u27s supervision. When my sister Jean Koh Peters-who is now my colleague at Yale Law School-and I followed suit some twenty-five years later, we became the second generation in our family to study international law under Louis\u27s watchful eye
