Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Body in Slavenka Drakulić´s novels
Predmet su diplomskoga rada tjelesnost i tijelo u odabranim romanima Slavenke Drakulić,
točnije u romanima Frida ili o boli, Kao da me nema i Optužena. U svojim se romanima Slavenka
Drakulić bavi temama ženskoga tijela i tjelesnosti te opasnostima kojima je žensko tijelo izloženo,
kao što su bolest, silovanje i zlostavljanje. Tako u romanu Frida ili o boli autorica analizira tijelo
preko bolesti i prometnu nesreću koja je snašla slavnu slikaricu Fridu Kahlo. Fridino je tijelo krivo
jer je ona ograničena, teško joj je ustajati i hodati, ona nema samopouzdanja i boji se odbijanja,
zbog čega se povlači u sebe. Nadalje, u romanu Kao da me nema glavna junakinja S. žrtva je
učestalih silovanja za vrijeme boravka u ratnome logoru, zbog čega je zauvijek oštećena. Ipak,
smogla je snage i razvila ljubav prema svojemu djetetu, unatoč tome što je ono „podsjetnik“ na
strahote koje su je zadesile. U trećem, ujedno i posljednjem romanu pod naslovom Optužena
autorica se bavi tjelesnim i emocionalnim zlostavljanjem te zanemarivanjem djeteta. Djevojčica
cijelim romanom trpi tjelesnu i psihičku bol te osjeća traumu tijela koje je podložno fizičkom
kažnjavanju, uskraćivanjem hrane i vode, obavljanja osnovnih fizioloških potreba, potrebi za
šutnjom, izloženo neprestanim lažima te zabrani pokazivanja ikakvih emocija, što rezultira
katastrofalnim posljedicama. U skladu s time, vidljivo je da se Slavenka Drakulić u svojim
romanima bavi temama koje se smatraju tabu temama u današnjem društvu i kojima se ne
posvećuje dovoljna pažnja, barem ne kroz perspektivu kroz koju tim temama pristupa sama
autorica. Takve traume nad tijelom rezultiraju odvajanjem žrtve od samoga tijela i rasapom
identiteta, pa su psihičke posljedice takvih trauma iznimno teške.The subject of this paper is physicality and the body in selected novels by Slavenka
Drakulić, more precisely in the novels Frida ili o boli, Kao da me nema and Optužena. In her
novels, Slavenka Drakulić deals with the topics of the female body and physicality, as well as the
dangers to which the female body is exposed, such as disease, rape and abuse. Thus, in the novel
Frida ili o boli, the author analyzes the body through illness and the traffic accident that befell the
famous painter Frida Kahlo. Frida's body is to blame because she is limited, it is difficult for her
to get up and walk, she has no self-confidence and is afraid of rejection, which is why she
withdraws into herself. Furthermore, in the novel Kao da me nema, the main character S. is a
victim of frequent rapes in a war camp, so she is permanently damaged. Nevertheless, she found
strength and developed love for her child, despite the fact that it is a „reminder“ of the horrors that
befell her. In the third and last novel entitled Optužena author deals with physical and emotional
abuse and child neglect. Throughout the novel, the girl suffers physical and mental pain and feels
the trauma of her body, which is subject to physical punishment, deprivation of food and water,
the fulfillment of basic physiological needs, the need for silence, exposed to constant lies and the
prohibition of showing any emotions, which results in catastrophic consequences. Accordingly, it
is evident that in her novels Slavenka Drakulić deals with topics that are considered taboo topics
in today's society and that are not given enough attention, at least not through the perspective
through which the author herself approaches these topics. Such traumas to the body result in the
separation of the victim from the body itself and the disintegration of identity, so the psychological
consequences of such traumas are extremely severe

Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
We 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
We 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
