In this paper we investigate the effects of co-citation proximity on the quality of co-citation analysis through four experiments of co-citation instances found in full-text scientific publications. First, we compared the distributions of co-citation instances at four levels of proximity in journal articles with the traditionally used article-level co-citation counts. Second, we analyzed how co...
