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

Edwin E. Witte letter to UW President Raymond B. Allen concerning whether or not professors revealed themselves as Communists, May 13, 1949
No full textDocument related to the Canwell Committee hearings.
In this correspondence Edwin E. Witt, Chairman of the Department of Economics at the University of Wisconsin, writes to Raymond B. Allen, President of the University of Washington, concerning the statement of a former professor at the University of Washington, Herbert Phillips. Witte writes, “In a speech in Madison Professor Phillips stated that he always opened his courses by a statement that he was a Communist, and had done so for many years. I thought that was a false statement, but was not in a position to contradict it. It seems to me that this is an important element in the case which should be emphasized more than it has been.” Allen responds “We have been aware that misinformation on this and other points has been encouraged by the dismissed professors and some of their friends…You will note in this report that the aspect of secrecy is treated in my memorandum to the Board of Regents, however, it is not over-emphasized since our case was built substantially around the conviction we hold that membership in the Party itself disqualifies a man for the teaching profession.”Raymond B. Allen received his Ph.D. and MD from University of Minnesota. He was the President of the University of Washington from 1946 to 1951. While President of the University of Washington he dealt with the Un-American Activities Committee and subsequently dismissed three professors for their affiliation with the Communist Party. He served as the first Chancellor of University of California, Los Angeles from 1951 to 1959.
Edwin E. Witte (1887-1960) was an economist who, under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, developed the policies and legislation that became the Social Security Act of 1935. He received his degrees from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1909, Harvard in 1911, and completed his doctorate in economics in 1927. Witte also served as the Chairman of the Department of Economics at the University of Wisconsin before becoming an expert on legislation and social insurance which led to the creation of the Social Security Act of 1935.
The Interim Committee on Un-American Activities (Canwell Committee) operated from 1947-1949. It was a special exploratory committee of the Washington State Legislature which investigated the influence of the Communist Party in Washington State, most notably at the University of Washington. During the years the committee was active it subpoenaed and took to trial 12 of the University’s professors, three of whom were dismissed from the university for having Communist affiliations and three of whom were put on probation for years after the incident occurred
