    Economía y juego en Celestina.
    (2010) Mallorquí-Ruscalleda, Enric
    In this work, I explore the “deep structure” inherent in the text of Celestina. By “deep structure” I mean a playful structure with which we can systemize the relationships that occur between the characters and their decision-making, especially between Celestina and Calisto. My approach to this thesis is interdisciplinary; more specifically, I apply the critical claims offered by modern game theory and sociology, with the intention of bringing to light an aspect of the work which has been up to now largely disregarded by Celestina critics: the role of games. This analysis is accomplished while keeping in mind the political, sociocultural and economic background of the times in which the text is situated.

    The Interdisciplinary Influence of Library and Information Science 1996–2004: A Journal-to-Journal Citation Analysis
    (2008-11) Odell, Jere D.; Gabbard, Ralph
    Using citation data from Journal Citation Reports (JCR) 1996–2004, this research replicates Meyer and Spencer's analysis of other-field citations to Library and Information Science (LIS) journals from 1972 to 1994. After 1994, JCR added LIS journals emphasizing empirical, information science research and simultaneously dropped journals addressing the profession of librarianship. The newly added journals attract a broader interdisciplinary readership—a readership reflected in a 14 percent increase in other-field citations of the LIS journals. The LIS journals included in both this and the Meyer and Spencer research, a list dominated by titles frequently read and cited by others in the LIS discipline, have not received an equal increase in other-field citations.
