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

The experimental lab: a tool for entrepreneurial university
No full textThe overall goal of this work is to provide a contribution to the studies that aim to boost the entrepreneurial activity of universities, exploring whether the experimental lab could be an effective tool to support aspiring entrepreneurs in turning their ideas into real start-ups. The experimental lab is a network of entrepreneurial individuals from universities, research labs, financial markets and industry who become part of an innovative ecosystem in order to sustain entrepreneurship. Starting from the assumption that university has to leave the “ivory tower” in which it has been isolated from reality and that, instead, it has to assume an active role in favouring entrepreneurship, this research has adopted a concrete approach, investigating the structure of experimental labs as tools supporting universities in their entrepreneurial vocation.
Basing on literature review and on a focus group, we designed a virtual platform for an experimental lab, to be concretely tested in its functioning by a simulation (role play)
