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
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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 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
Nino Ferrari. L’arte del metallo tra tradizione e modernità
No full textCatalogo della mostra "Nino Ferrari. L’arte del metallo tra tradizione e modernità" (Lonato del Garda, Fondazione Ugo Da Como, 2 marzo – 9 giugno 2024).
Nino Ferrari è stato uno dei protagonisti delle arti decorative in Italia tra gli anni Trenta e gli anni Cinquanta del Novecento, facendosi interprete del nuovo gusto moderno e dando vita a creazioni sempre in dialogo tra la tradizione storica e le espressioni più aggiornate della contemporaneità. Grazie alle sue eccezionali doti nella lavorazione dei metalli, dalla modellazione alla decorazione a cesello e sbalzo su argento, rame e peltro, ha avuto modo di piegare la rigida materia grezza alle proprie fantasie creative e a quelle dei molti artisti e designer con i quali è entrato in contatto nel corso della sua lunga attività. Pur rimanendo legato alla città di Brescia, dove si trovava il suo elegante negozio con annesso laboratorio, Ferrari ha saputo mantenere saldi i rapporti con il vivace contesto milanese, partecipando con regolarità alle Triennali e collaborando con il marchio “Casa e Giardino”, fondato e diretto da Gio Ponti.
Il catalogo racconta e illustra attraverso una ricca selezione di opere, disegni, documenti e fotografie d’epoca, materiali per la maggior parte inediti, la vita e la carriera di questo raffinato maestro del metallo, dalla formazione ai primi anni di attività, per arrivare alla definizione del suo caratteristico “stile modernissimo” e alle invenzioni eseguite su progetti di architetti e pittori di livello internazionale, come Guido Frette, Gio Ponti e Roberto Sebastián Matta
