Structural Analysis of Paper Citation and Co-Authorship Networks

In recent years, attention to the structure of existing several complex networks has been increasing. The characteristic of such structure of complex networks is applicable in several forms to, for instance, information retrieval and data mining applications. However, in the literature, it has not been sufficiently investigated what the structure of complex networks tells and how the structure ...

Structural Analysis of Paper Citation and Co-Authorship Networks using Network Analysis Techniques

Co-Authorship Networks of Scientific Collaboration

This study analyzes collaborative and networked academic authorship in higher education. The literature review shows evidence that single authorship has made a gradual paradigm shift to joint authorship. The empirical evidence from the Turku University of Applied Sciences indicates that collaborative authorship has notably increased in the last few years. Co-authorship has extended outside the ...

Some journal editors coerce authors to add citations that are not pertinent to their work and some authors pad their reference lists with superfluous citations. How prevalent are these types of manipulation, why do scholars stoop to such practices, and who...
