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
Conclusion
No full textFor centuries, music educators have sought to innovate, refresh, revive and improve pedagogical and theoretical practice. The most effective of these changes have been highly influential, spreading beyond their point of origin throughout the world and providing fresh approaches in classrooms, studios, ensemble rehearsal venues, and all other spaces and places where music teaching and learning can occur. There is now an embarrassment of riches, a smorgasbord of pedagogies and approaches through which music teachers formatively begin their music learning experiences, and then as music educators choose depending on capacity, context, aptness and preference. For many undergraduate music teachers, the range of pedagogical approaches can be overwhelming. Teacher training courses in music frequently offer “taster courses”, designed to introduce the many concepts and practices to would-be teachers in order for them to consider which of them to explore more thoroughly during the course of their careers. Given the limits to comprehensive access for initial teacher education there are simply too many complex pedagogical skills for a trainee teacher to try and master within the course of a few, short years. This collection of education big bangs in music education offers scope for both the breadth and depth in which music education can engage learners, as well as the capacity for those in the profession to be captivated in the life-long learning it offers
