The Who, Where, and What of Publications in the <i>Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science</i> from 2009 to 2019: A Bibliometric Analysis
Why this work is in the frame
A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The aim of this bibliometric analysis was to identify the authors, their institutions and countries, and the content of articles published in the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science (JAAWS) from 2009–2019. An analysis of 338 articles identified Emily Weiss, Jason B. Coe, and Emily McCobb as frequent publishers and Pauleen C. Bennett and Terry L. Maple as prolific collaborators. Georgia J. Mason, Kathy Carlstead, and Geoffrey R. Hosey were identified as the most cited authors, whereas Emily J. Bethell had the most cited publication and Jeanne Altmann was the most cited JAAWS reference. Analysis of the organizations from which research published in JAAWS generated revealed the University of Guelph, Purdue University, Tufts University, University of California – Davis, Monash University, and Unitech Institute of Technology as prolific contributors. The top three countries central to JAAWS publications were the USA, Australia, and England. Analysis of the keywords identified animal welfare, welfare, behavior, and dog as salient descriptors. Text analysis of titles and abstracts revealed behavior, effect, time, and dog as key descriptors. Findings are discussed within the broader context of anthrozoological research and literature.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
