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
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
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
HOUSEHOLD INCOME DIVERSIFICATION AND FOOD SECURITY IN SRI LANKA
No full textDiversifying income sources is recognized as a crucial strategy to boost earnings, mitigate risk, and reduce economic vulnerability. Despite its importance, the relationship between food security and income diversification in Sri Lanka hasn’t received sufficient attention. Therefore, this study investigates how Sri Lankan food security is impacted by income diversification by analyzing 19,783 national representative households' data taken from the 2019 Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES). The nutrition-based Food Security Index (FSI) was used to assess food security. Food security is measured by dividing the daily calorie intake by the recommended per capita daily calorie intake of all household members. An FSI value below 1.0 indicates food insecurity, while values at or above 1.0 indicate food security. Income diversification was measured using Simpson's Index of Diversity (SID), with households possessing multiple income sources classified as having diversified income portfolios. Descriptive statistics, multiple linear regression and probit regression were used to analyze the data. The results reveal that over half of households have a variety of sources of income, indicating that households typically rely on multiple sources of income rather than just one, and FSI, with a mean of 1.11, suggests that households are food secure on average. Ultimately, the analysis revealed that the household food security in Sri Lanka is positively and significantly impacted by income diversification. Sectoral analysis indicates that rural and urban households have wider income sources compared to households in the estate sector, while the estate and rural sector households are generally food secure, compared to the households in the urban sector. These findings highlight the importance of promoting income diversification strategies among Sri Lankan households to enhance food security and build resilience against economic shocks in Sri Lanka.
