Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Comunidad Virtual Educativa Pablo García Baena
Este proyecto pretende proporcionar los conocimientos y práctica necesarios para utilizar las TICs como recurso educativo y medio de comunicación, tanto por el profesorado como por el alumnado. Asimismo pretende desarrollar las competencias textuales necesarias para evitar la manipulación sutil que a través de la diversidad de códigos y textos que ofrecen estas tecnologías suele producirse, sobre todo en la infancia y la adolescencia. Por otro lado pretende implicar a madres y padres realizando una formación específica para ellos y solicitando su colaboración en las actividades previstas, como el portal virtual.Junta de Andalucía.

Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
We 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
El juego infantil y su influencia en el proceso de socialización con niños y niñas de 4 años de la i.e.i. N° 14012 San Martín de Porres - Piura
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo determinar la influencia de los juegos infantiles en
el proceso de socialización entre los niños y las niñas de 4 años de edad de la LE. San
Martin N° 14012.
Para el desarrollo de este trabajo de investigación se ha tenido en cuenta una población
muestra de 23 niños de 4 años de edad de la Institución Educativa San Martín N” 14012,
con quienes se ha realizado una investigación desde el enfoque cuantitativo pre
experimental con diseño pre prueba - pos prueba. Se utilizó el instrumento lista de cotejo
para registrar los hechos, actitudes de los niños y niñas antes y después de la aplicación
del programa. Para el procesamiento de datos se aplicaron tablas de frecuencias y
porcentajes que permitieron determinar que tanto influyen los juegos infantiles en el
proceso de socialización.
Quedando demostrado que los juegos infantiles influyen en el proceso de socialización de
los niños y niñas de 4 años de edad de la Institución Educativa San Martín N° 14012 tal
como lo indica la tabla N° 04 que antes de la aplicación de los juegos infantiles solo el
34.78% de los niños presentaban un adecuado proceso de socialización frente a un
65.22% que no demostraban este grado de socialización. En la tabla N° 08 se denota que
después de aplicar el programa de los juegos infantiles estos porcentajes fueron
superados: el 73.91% de los niños mejoraron su proceso de socialización ante un
reducido de 26.09% de los niños que no pudieron superar. De esta manera se acepta la
hipótesis general la práctica de los juegos infantiles influye positivamente en el proceso
de socialización entre los niños y las niñas de 4 años de edad del nivel inicial de la LE.

koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We 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
Constraining Convection Parameters From The Light Curve Shapes Of Pulsating White Dwarf Stars: The Cases Of EC 14012-1446 And WD 1524-0030
Montgomery [1] developed a method to probe convection in pulsating white dwarf stars which allows the recovery of the thermal response time of the convection zone by fitting observed non sinusoidal light curves. He applied this method to two objects; the Whole Earth Telescope (WET) observed the pulsating DB white dwarf GD 358 for just this purpose. Given this WET run\u27s success, it is time to extend Montgomery\u27s method to pulsating DA white dwarf (ZZ Ceti) stars. We present observations of two ZZ Ceti stars, WD 1524 - 0030 and EC 14012 - 1446, both observed from multiple sites. EC 14012 - 1446 seems better suited thAN WD1524 - 0030 for a future WET run because it has more pulsation modes excited and because it pulsation spectrum appears to be more stable in time. We call for participation in this effort to take place in April 2008
