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
СТИЛІСТИЧНА ОРГАНІЗАЦІЯ РЕЧЕНЬ УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ МОВИ КРІЗЬ ПРИЗМУ ПОРЯДКУ СЛІВ
Full text linkThe article analyses the peculiarities of stylistic organisation of sentences in the Ukrainian language through the prism of word order patterns. The problem is posed due to the need to analyse the ways of verbalising the speaker’s communicative intention, the variability of sentence models of functional styles, the actual articulation and the linguistic-mental paradigm of studying linguistic phenomena. The focus is on the fact that word order in a sentence is a grammatical and cognitive-pragmatic category that ensures the stylistic organisation of utterances. The results of the study show that the stylistic organisation of sentences is determined by the regularities of word order: thematic-remembering articulation, direct and indirect word order, informational perspective, contextual and pragmatic determinism. The research findings are based on the fact that word order in Ukrainian sentences is considered as a set of syntactic coding methods, i.e. indexing and formatting of sentence members using formal grammatical means of syntax, which are determined by the needs of communicative syntax (actual sentence structure), the main concept of which is the speaker’s intention. In scientific and official-business styles, direct word order prevails, ensuring logical clarity, unambiguity of statements and text structure. Indirect word order in these styles is used to mark key elements and emphasise important information. In journalistic, literary and colloquial styles, there is noticeable variation in word order, which allows for the emphasis of emotional colour, rhythm and intonational accents in utterances, as well as the adaptation of the text to communicative goals and genre requirements. Particular attention is paid to the typology of the speaker’s communicative intention, which is integrated into the linguistic structure of a given sentence and determines the word order for the realisation of the communicative-pragmatic goal. The results of the comparative analysis of styles are presented in a table that demonstrates the correlation between dominant types of intention, genre diversity, and features of word order and theme/rheme realisation. The study confirms that word order in the Ukrainian language is an important tool for stylistic marking and organisation of utterances, reflects the cognitive and pragmatic strategies of the speaker, ensures effective transmission of information and contributes to the realisation of the genre and stylistic tasks of the text.У статті проаналізовано особливості стилістичної організації речень української мови крізь призму закономірностей порядку слів. Постановка проблеми зумовлена необхідністю аналізу способів вербалізації комунікативної інтенції мовця, варіантності моделей речень функціональних стилів, актуального членування та лінгвоментальної парадигми дослідження мовних явищ. Закцентовано на тому, що порядок слів у реченні виступає граматичною та когнітивно-прагматичною категорією, що забезпечує стилістичну організацію висловлень. Результати дослідження свідчать, що стилістична організація речень визначається закономірностями порядку слів: темо-ремним членуванням, прямим та непрямим порядком слів, інформаційною перспективністю, контекстною та прагматичною детермінованістю. Положення дослідження базуються на тому, що порядок слів у реченнях української мови розглядається як сукупність способів синтаксичного кодування, тобто індексації та оформлення членів речення за допомогою формально-граматичних засобів синтаксису, що визначаються потребами комунікативного синтаксису (актуальне членування речення), основним поняттям якого є інтенція мовця. У науковому та офіційно-діловому стилях переважає прямий порядок слів, що забезпечує логічну зрозумілість, однозначність висловлень та структурованість тексту. Непрямий порядок слів у цих стилях застосовується для маркування ключових елементів та акцентування важливої інформації. У публіцистичному, художньому та розмовному стилях помітна варіантність порядку слів, що дає змогу підкреслити емоційне забарвлення, ритм та інтонаційні акценти висловлень, а також адаптувати текст до комунікативної мети та жанрових вимог. Особливу увагу приділено типології комунікативної інтенції мовця, що інтегрується в мовну структуру певного речення і спричиняє порядок слів для реалізації комунікативно-прагматичної мети. Результати порівняльного аналізу стилів подано в таблиці, що демонструє співвідношення домінантних типів інтенції, жанрового різноманіття та особливостей порядку слів і реалізації теми/реми. Дослідження підтверджує, що порядок слів в українській мові виступає важливим інструментом стилістичного маркування та організації висловлень, відображає когнітивні та прагматичні стратегії мовця, забезпечує ефективну передачу інформації та сприяє реалізації жанрових і стилістичних завдань тексту
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
