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
Towards a relational heritage approach : fostering community-heritage engagement
No full textErfgoed wordt door beleidsmakers, architecten en planologen steeds meer gezien als een uniek en waardevol onderdeel van de stedelijke inrichting. In veel Europese steden zijn vandaag de dag dan ook voorbeelden te vinden van succesvolle herbestemmingsprojecten rondom erfgoed. Tegelijkertijd is het binnen deze herbestemmingsprojecten nog vaak zoeken naar succesvolle methoden om omwonende en burgers te betrekken bij de herbestemming. In dit onderzoek worden verschillende Europese herbestemmingsprojecten geanalyseerd om te kijken welke erfgoedbenaderingen het beste rekening houden met verschillende en veranderende percepties rondom erfgoed en de herbestemming van erfgoed. Deze thesis stelt dat: 1) burgerbetrokkenheid, nog veel meer als nu, het uitganspunt van herbestemmingsprojecten zou moeten zijn om zo recht te doen aan lokale erfgoedwaarde. 2) dat er bij herbestemmingen rekening gehouden moet worden met het feit dat erfgoed niet iets vastomlijnds is, maar steeds aan verandering onderhevig is. 3) en dat herbestemmingsprojecten recht moeten doen aan de unieke context en ruimtelijke inbedding. Deze drie aanbevelingen kunnen worden samengevat als een pleidooi voor erfgoedbenaderingen die erfgoed zien als iets wat altijd in verandering is
