摘要
Lotka's Law originally calculated only the frequencies of single or first authors. However, given the growth and popularity of scientific collaboration, the distribution of co-author pairs' frequencies should also be considered. Based on the previous researchers' results, this article will demonstrate that the distribution of co-author pairs' frequencies can be reflected by a social gestalt and that there are different shapes of this social gestalt. Results for the distribution of co-author pairs in journals are shown for the co-authorship data of the Journal of Information Technology (1994-2007).
