Mapeo y análisis de investigaciones sobre relaciones de género en el trabajo en cocimas de restaurantes
Entre o individual e o coletivo: as estratégias de resistência adotadas por trabalhadoras de cozinha em restaurantes no Brasil e na Espanha
L'objectiu d'aquesta recerca doctoral va ser entendre les estratègies de resistència de les treballadores de cuina dels
restaurants comercials davant les desigualtats de gènere i la discriminació en el treball al Brasil (Rio de Janeiro) i
Espanya (Barcelona). Amb aquesta finalitat, es va dur a terme un enfocament d'investigació qualitativa, mitjançant la
construcció d'un mosaic científic compost per investigacions bibliogràfiques i empíriques en què es van recollir
informes mitjançant el mètode biogràfic a través de 24 entrevistes individuals en profunditat a treballadors de la
restauració d'ambdós països. Les entrevistes van ser gravades, transcrites i analitzades per identificar temes i
categories a tractar. La investigació empírica va revelar categories d'estratègies de resistència en el sector, a més de
debats sobre els temes de relació amb altres dones, maternitat, raça i conciliació de la vida personal, especialment la
producció d'aliments a casa, amb les carreres remunerades dels subjectes de recerca. . En el grup temàtic
d'estratègies, els codis identificats es van agrupar en les següents categories: inserció i permanència; esforç i
dedicació; postura i acció directa; autonomia, emprendre i tenir negocis propis; acumulació d'experiències; dimensió
col·lectiva; i límits de resistència. Els resultats demostren una varietat d'estratègies desencadenadas pels subjectes,
que oscil·len entre estratègies individuals i col·lectives, tal com s'argumenta a la tesi.El objetivo de esta investigación doctoral fue comprender las estrategias de resistencia de las mujeres que trabajan en

construyendo un mosaico científico compuesto por investigaciones bibliográficas y empíricas en las que se recopilaron
relatos a través del método biográfico mediante 24 entrevistas individuales en profundidad con trabajadoras de
restaurantes de ambos países. Las entrevistas fueron grabadas, transcritas y analizadas para identificar los temas y
categorías a discutir. La investigación empírica reveló categorías de estrategias de resistencia en el sector, así como
discusiones sobre temas relacionados con la relación con otras mujeres, maternidad, raza y conciliación de la vida
personal, especialmente la producción de alimentos en el hogar en relación con las carreras remuneradas de las
sujetas de investigación. En el grupo temático de las estrategias, los códigos identificados se agruparon en las
siguientes categorías: inserción y permanencia; esfuerzo y dedicación; postura y acción directa; autonomía,
emprender y tener negocios propios; acumulación de experiencias; dimensión colectiva; y límites de la resistencia. Los
resultados demuestran una variedad de estrategias utilizadas por las sujetas, que oscilan entre estrategias
individuales y colectivas, tal como se argumenta en la tesis.The aim of this doctoral research was to understand the resistance strategies of women working in commercial
restaurant kitchens against gender inequalities and discrimination in the workplace in Brazil (Rio de Janeiro) and Spain
(Barcelona). To achieve this, a qualitative research approach was conducted, utilizing a scientific mosaic composed of
bibliographic and empirical research, employed to collect narratives through 24 in-depth individual interviews with
restaurant workers from both countries. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed to identify themes
and categories for discussion. The empirical research revealed categories of resistance strategies in the sector, along
with discussions on topics such as relationships with other women, motherhood, race, and balancing personal life,
particularly the production of food at home, with paid careers of the research subjects. In the thematic group of
strategies, the identified codes were grouped into the following categories: insertion and persistence; effort and
dedication; posture and direct action; autonomy, entrepreneurship, and self-employment; accumulation of experiences;
collective dimension; and limits of resistance. The results demonstrate a variety of strategies employed by the subjects,
ranging from individual to collective strategies, as argued in the thesis
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
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
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
