Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
DIVERSIDADE CULTURAL, RELAÇÕES RACIAIS E EDUCAÇÃO NA UNEMAT
No full textEste artigo traz uma reflexão sobre as disciplinas ministradas na Universidade do Estado de Mato Grosso no Curso de Graduação-Licenciatura em Pedagogia, Campus de Juara e no Curso de Pós-Graduação “Docência no Ensino Superior”, Campus de Sinop. O objetivo foi analisar como é importante uma disciplina que contemple a temática étnica racial nos cursos de graduação e de pós-graduação para mudança do imaginário social e postura em relação às diferenças étnicas e raciais. Para fazer essa análise, contou-se com os dados coletados junto aos acadêmicos do sétimo e oitavo semestre que cursam Pedagogia e em conversas informais com os alunos da pós-graduação. Concluise que proporcionar o debate de forma sistêmica e articulada com as diferentes áreas do conhecimento permite mudanças de valores e atitudes em relação às diferenças raciais
A presença das crianças migrantes haitianas nas escolas de Sinop/MT: o que elas visibilizam da escola?
No full textThis study, linked to the Sociology of Childhood research line of the Post-Graduate Program in Sociology of the Federal University of São Carlos, sought to understand how the insertion of Haitian children in the public schools of Sinop / MT is happening. The research objectives were to analyze how the migrant children inserts in the school; to find out what the foreigner shows from school and how the presence of the black migrant children make visible the racialization in the school. The methodology used is based on the ethnographic perspective and the methodological procedures were: observations and individual and group interviews with the Haitian children, the parents, teachers, child development techniques and scholarship recipients. The temporal cut included migrant children who came with their parents from 2015 and 2016 to Brazil, to the city of Sinop in Mato Grosso. It was based the theoretical studies on the sociology of childhood, the concept of differences and racial relations, authors such Oliveira and Abramowicz (2010), Abramowicz et al. (2003, 2009, 2011, 2015), Abramowicz (2011), André (2016), Sarmento (2015), Delgado and Muller (2005), Corsaro (2006), Hall (2003, 2014), Woodward (2014) and Louro (2008). About migrant children I had support in Oliveira (2014), Demartini (2004, 2006, 2011), Martuscelli (2015) Siller (2011), Freitas and Silva (2015) among others. About contemporary migration, specifically the Haitian migration to Sinop, the history of Sinop colonization, the history of Haiti and its political emancipation, gave support to the dialogue, among others, the researches of Cotinguiba and Pimentel (2014), Guimarães (2017); Seitenfus (2015), Seguy (2014), Joanoni Neto (2014); Souza (2009, 2011); Thomaz (2010, 2011) Trouillot (2016) e James (2009). The research results point that the impact that Haitian migrant children presence cause in schools occurs because they are perceived by teachers and peers as different and these differences are explicit in their bodies. It is these differences that make visible the way in which the school racializes the migrant children by establishing a hierarchy among the children themselves and within that hierarchy the Haitian children are subaltern. Thus, schools never revise their racist practices and speeches, they cannot take the children’s color off.Não recebi financiamentoEste estudo está vinculado à linha de pesquisa Sociologia da Infância do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Sociologia da Universidade Federal de São Carlos. O objetivo geral buscou compreender como está ocorrendo à inserção das crianças haitianas nas escolas públicas de Sinop/MT. Os objetivos específicos foram: analisar como a criança migrante se insere na escola; averiguar o que o estrangeiro mostra da escola e como a presença das crianças migrantes negras visibilizam a racialização na escola. Esse trabalho teve abordagem etnográfica através de observações, entrevistas com as crianças haitianas, os pais, professores, técnicas de desenvolvimento infantil e bolsistas. O recorte temporal abrangeu as crianças migrantes que vieram com seus pais no período de 2015-2016 para o Brasil, para a cidade de Sinop no estado de Mato Grosso. Embasaram os estudos teóricos sobre a sociologia da infância, o conceito de diferenças e relações raciais autores como Oliveira e Abramowicz (2010), Abramowicz et al. (2003, 2009, 2011, 2015), Abramowicz (2011), André (2016), Sarmento (2008, 2011), Corsaro (2002), Hall (2003, 2014), Woodward (2014) e Louro (2008). Sobre criança migrante, amparei-me em Oliveira (2014), Demartini (2004, 2006, 2011), Martuscelli (2015) Siller (2011), Freitas e Silva (2015) entre outros. Sobre migração contemporânea, especificamente a migração haitiana para Sinop, a história da colonização de Sinop, a história do Haiti e sua emancipação política, deu suporte para o diálogo, entre outras, as pesquisas de Cotinguiba e Pimentel (2014), Guimarães (2017); Seitenfus (2015), Seguy (2014), Joanoni Neto (2014); Souza (2009, 2011); Thomaz (2010, 2011) Trouillot (2016) e James (2009). O resultado da pesquisa aponta que o impacto que a presença das crianças migrantes haitianas causa nas escolas ocorre por serem percebidas pelos professores e pelos colegas como diferentes e essas diferenças estão explícitas em seus corpos. São essas diferenças que visibilizam a maneira pela qual a escola racializa as crianças migrantes estabelecendo uma hierarquia entre as próprias crianças e dentro dessa hierarquia as crianças haitianas são subalternizadas em relação às demais. As escolas nunca reveem as suas práticas e discursos racistas e não conseguem tirar a cor dessas crianças
DIVERSIDADE E DIFERENÇA NA ESCOLA: CRIANÇAS MIGRANTES DO HAITI
Full text linkNeste artigo discute-se sobre a migração haitiana para o Brasil, especificamente na cidade de Sinop, estado de Mato Grosso. Tendo como foco a inserção das crianças haitianas em escolas públicas, as dificuldades delas com a língua, a aprendizagem escolar e a percepção da diversidade e da diferença pelos professores e gestores das escolas. A sociologia da infância foi o aporte teórico utilizado na pesquisa e os dados apresentados neste artigo foram gerados no ano de 2016 em 4 escolas públicas, sendo 2 de Ensino Fundamental e 2 de Educação Infantil, e em entrevistas com professores, técnicas em atendimento infantil (TAI), bolsistas do Centro de Integração Empresa Escola (CIEE) e bolsistas do Programa Institucional de Iniciação à Docência (PIBID). Nas escolas pesquisadas há uma ausência de conteúdos curriculares que discutem a diversidade e a diferença (raciais, étnicas, gênero e sexualidade) na sociedade. As escolas que recebem as crianças migrantes não abordam o tema diversidade e diferença e isso influencia na forma como as crianças migrantes haitianas são percebidas pelos professores
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
