AS DIMENSÕES DO MOBILIÁRIO DISPONÍVEL AOS ESCOLARES E AS ESPECIFICAÇÕES DA NORMA BRASILEIRA 14006
Get PDFBesides being a right provided in the Law of Directives and Bases of National Education, the availability of tables and chairs appropriate to individual anthropometric characteristics is one of the conditions necessary for maintaining a healthy body posture. The Brazilian Association of Technical Standards is responsible for standardization of school furniture, denominated in Brazilian Standard 14006 (NBR 14006). The Standard specifies the dimensions of eight furniture sets, recommended according to the user height. The objective of this research was to determine whether the furniture dimensions available to students in a school hall from Marechal Candido Rondon/PR were in accordance with the ISO 14006 specifications. The population consisted of 388 students from 1st to 4th grades and the sample by 363 students. The furniture population was estimated at 270, of which a sample of 27 was extracted. The students'height and dimensions of chairs and tables were measured and compared with the ISO 14006 recommendations. Data showed that the dimensions of school furniture available to users who were not in conformity with the ISO 14006 specifications.Além de ser um direito previsto na Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional, a disponibilidade de cadeiras e mesas adequadas às características antropométricas individuais é uma das condições necessárias à manutenção de uma postura corporal saudável. A Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas é a entidade responsável pela normalização do mobiliário escolar, expressa na Norma Brasileira 14006 (NBR 14006). A Norma especifica as dimensões de oito conjuntos mobiliário, recomendados segundo a estatura do usuário. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi verificar se as dimensões do mobiliário disponível aos alunos de uma escola municipal de Marechal Cândido Rondon/ PR estavam em conformidade com as especificações da NBR 14006. A população foi composta por 388 alunos de 1ª a 4ª séries e a amostra por 363 alunos. A população mobiliária foi estimada em 270, da qual se extraiu uma amostra de 27. A estatura dos alunos e as dimensões das cadeiras e mesas foram mensuradas e comparadas com as recomendações da NBR 14006. Os dados obtidos permitiram concluir que as dimensões do mobiliário escolar disponível aos usuários não estavam em conformidade com as especificações da NBR 14006
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
