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
Exploring the tipping point: a qualitative study of labour marked experiences among young people with first episode of schizophrenia
No full textPURPOSE: Work holds significant value in the lives of most individuals, impacting various aspects such as identity, health, and the economy. However, young individuals with schizophrenia often encounter challenges in accessing and maintaining employment. Despite this, knowledge regarding their experiences with labor market is sparse. The study aimed to explore perspectives on labor market affiliation and vocational intervention in relation to quality of life and health among young people with schizophrenia.METHODS: A qualitative approach was employed, applying individual interviews as data collection method. Twelve patients with first episode of schizophrenia were recruited from two outpatient clinics. Thematic analysis was used, following an inductive process. A user panel was established to ensure quality and relevance of the study.RESULTS: Three key themes were identified from the analysis: 1. "Work is simultaneously rewarding and demanding", highlighting the struggle to balance the benefits of employment with the difficulties of meeting labor market requirements; 2. "Mental health, stigma and work: A complex interplay", which concerned how work simultaneously contributes to stress and reduces psychiatric symptoms; 3. "Supported employment: Facilitating work-life balance", concerning how supported employment intervention facilitated a better work-life balance, enhancing overall quality of life, under specific conditions.CONCLUSION: Young individuals with schizophrenia are highly motivated to work, yet encounter significant barriers to labour market participation, related both to their mental health condition and societal stigma. Supported employment programmes emerge as crucial in empowering individuals with schizophrenia to navigate the complexities of the labour market while managing their mental health effectively.</p
