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

The implied author
Implicitni avtor zaradi različnih opredelitev ni enoten koncept. Članek predstavi in problematizira implicitnega avtorja, kot ga je oblikoval Wayne C. Booth, in preveri njegovo rabo v slovenskem prostoru. Prispevek vsebuje izvirno sintezo teorij implicitnega avtorja s poudarkom na opredelitvah, ki so nastale v 21. stoletju, in ključnih starejših. Izpostavi temeljne razlike med različnimi tipi teorij, pri posameznih tipih obravnavanega koncepta izpostavi problematična mesta in osvetli razumevanje implicitnega avtorja kot bralčevega konstrukta, ki se kaže kot najbolj utemeljeno in prevladuje v sodobnih razpravah.The implied author is not a uniform concept because of the variety of its definitions. The article examines the use of the term implied author introduced by Wayne C. Booth and his subsequent reconceptualizations in Slovenia. The paper includes an original synthesis of the theories of the implied author focusing on the key older and modern theories, which shows their differences. The author highlights the problematic areas of each type of the concepts. She sheds light on understanding of the implied author as a reader-generated construct, which is seen as the most reasonable view and it is prevalent in contemporary debates
