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
Análise comparativa de viabilidade econômica entre habitação de interesse social construída com adobe e com blocos de tijolos cerâmicos
Full text linkOne of the numbers that Brazil has been facing for a long time is a matter of the housing deficit, this factor affects all of them adequately. Thus, it is a study of means that reduce the maximum factor of housing, especially for a poorer population. One way in which it may contribute to a search for more viable construction techniques is a use of adobe building blocks, as this is a low cost no aspect of construction and construction, in which it is done through land and water additive Can contribute to the improvement of the same, as it does not cause problems to the environment, as constructions in methodology are defined as sustainable constructions. These, in turn, exist in many places of much, more, for lack of theoretical knowledge about material and an economic viability that the same presents as productions with this less and less current. With this, the objective of this work is to show qualitatively with a theoretical and practical project using a single-family design of a project that offers a comparative with the ceramic projects, showing a significant saving that the abobe presents to improve the constructive processes of the present time. The research was developed in two parts. Where a bibliographic study was initially carried out on the characteristics of the materials studied and a qualitative study was carried out a survey on the costs of a single-family dwelling produced with masonry of ceramic bricks and blocks of adobe. This study verified an analysis between two materials, verifying this way, that the adobe presented a cost of 3,108.84, while the ceramic blocks reflected a total cost of 4,836.47. This guaranteed a difference of 1,727.63 (one thousand, seven hundred and twenty-seven reais and sixty-three cents). From the work developed it can be concluded that, there is a significant saving on the costs of a social interest housing using adobe.Um dos aspectos nos qual o Brasil vem enfrentado desde muito tempo é a questão do déficit habitacional, este fator afeta todos de alguma maneira. Assim, é de suma importância um estudo de meios que possam ao máximo diminuir este fator habitacional, principalmente para a camada mais pobre da população. Uma maneira na qual pode contribuir para a busca de técnicas construtivas mais viáveis é a utilização de blocos de construção adobe, visto que este apresenta um baixo custo no aspecto produtivo e de construção, na qual é feito através de terra e água e se necessário algum aditivo que possa contribuir para o melhoramento do mesmo, por não causar problemas ao ambiente, as construções nesta metodologia são definidas como construções sustentáveis. Estas, por sua vez existe em existe em diversos locais desde muito, mas, por falta de conhecimento teórico sobre o material e a viabilidade econômica que o mesmo apresenta as produções com este na atualidade é cada vez menos. Com isso, o objetivo deste trabalho é mostrar qualitativamente com um embasamento teórico e prático utilizando um projeto unifamiliar respeito do adobe apresentando um comparativo com os tijolos cerâmicos, mostrando a economia significativa que o abobe apresenta para melhorar os processos construtivos da atualidade. O desenvolvimento da pesquisa foi realizado em duas partes. Onde inicialmente realizou-se um estudo bibliográfico acerca das características dos materiais estudados, e em seguida através de um estudo qualitativo realizou-se um levantamento acerca dos custos de uma habitação unifamiliar produzida com alvenaria de tijolos cerâmicos e com blocos de adobe. Esse estudo conferiu uma análise entre os dois materiais, verificando dessa forma, que o adobe apresentou um custo de 3.108,84, enquanto os blocos cerâmicos refletiram um custo total de 4.836,47. Isso garantiu uma diferença de 1.727,63 (mil setecentos e vinte e sete reais e sessenta e três centavos). A partir do trabalho desenvolvido pode-se concluir que, existe uma economia significativa acerca dos custos de uma habitação de interesse social utilizando o adobe.Trabalho não financiado por agência de fomento, ou autofinanciad
