Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
Analysis of the Combination of Vendor and Consultant Executors Through Risk Management Moderation on Decision Making for the Development of the E-Procurement System at PT XYZ
Get PDFThe selection of potential executor combinations is the initial stage in planning the development of an e-procurement system. The aim is to conduct studies and analyze each combination of executor vendors and consultants based on their impact and scale of importance on cost, time, quality, and flexibility. This study will lead to selecting a recommended combination with the least risk value and the most important based on the current conditions of PT XYZ. The method used in this research is a quantitative method with the MANOVA test to assess differences in the influence of each executor combination on costs, time, quality, and flexibility. Next, a risk analysis is carried out using the FMEA method to assess the Risk Priority Index and determine risk mitigation. After that, the best combination of executors is selected based on the risk value and the interest scale. The research results show that there are differences in the influence on cost and quality of all combinations of executors, but different combinations of executors do not have a different influence on time and specificity. The results of the risk analysis show that there are influences of risk management in the relationship between each type of executor on costs, time, quality, and flexibility, which can be seen from the decrease in the Risk Priority Index value for each risk event that has been identified due to risk mitigation. Finally, the results of selecting potential executor combinations using AHP show that combination 8 is the first potential with a value of 0.136, followed by combination 5 in second place with a value of 0.112, and third place is achieved by combination 7 with a value of 0.111. The fourth, fifth, and sixth places are each occupied by Combination 3 with a value of 0.101; combination 2 with a value of 0.098; and combination 1 with a value of 0.097
