Previous issue date: 2010The judgments made by teachers about their own abilities to teach are important for decision making and the actions that will follow over the teaching and learning process in teaching in Physical Education. In order to investigate self-efficacy beliefs of student teachers in Physical Education, 159 students from 3rd and 4th grades of undergraduate courses in Physical Education responded to Physical Educator's Self-efficacy scale and a questionnaire. Participants are realized with a high level of self-efficacy, recognizing the importance of mastery experiences of teaching during undergraduate classes. These results provide guidance for planning strategies to address the construction of high teaching self-efficacy beliefs during the preparation process, considering that the consequences of such beliefs are associated with engagement and involvement in the task of teaching.[Iaochite, Roberto Tadeu] Universidade de Taubaté (Unitau), DEF, BR-12030180 Taubate, SP, Brazil[Iaochite, Roberto Tadeu] ESEFIC, Cruzeiro, SP, Brazil[da Silva, Afonsa Janaina] Univ Sao Francisco, FEF, BR-12900000 Braganca Paulista, SP, Brazil[Azzi, Roberta Gurgel] Univ Estadual Campinas, FE, Campinas, SP, Brazi
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
As relações afetivas na educação física escolar: espaço de encontros e reencontros
Full text linkDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Desportos. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação Física.Este trabalho teve como objetivo refletir sobre a prática pedagógica da Educação Física escolar, tendo como eixo-orientador o movimento humano e as relações emocionais-afetivas entre professores e alunos. A investigação foi caracterizada como teórico-bibliográfica e nasceu do resgate das lembranças guardadas no "baú" de uma caminhada pedagógica da Educação Infantil ao Ensino Superior, na cidade de Blumenau, SC. Partindo de uma busca por aportes teóricos acerca do processo ensino-aprendizagem, identificou-se uma aproximação entre a teoria do "se-movimentar" de Elenor Kunz e a "educação dialógica" de Paulo Freire. Essas concepções educacionais contribuíram sobremaneira para fundamentar esta investigação, principalmente por revelar que quando alunos e professores caminham juntos como sujeitos construtores de conhecimento, diante de um problema ou uma necessidade social, esse saber é transformado em uma permanente troca de experiências. Para isto, no entanto, o processo deve ser significativo, e esse significado se dá na medida em que a apreensão sobre o objeto seja mais do que apenas sua captação, sendo necessária uma interação entre a emoção, o afeto, o amor e os processos mais científicos de ensinar, caso contrário não se tem um processo ensino-aprendizagem. Assim, ampliam-se os caminhos para a produção e expressão de elementos subjetivos singularizados, valorizando as relações que se estabelecem consigo próprio e na esfera coletiva da sua existência social. Como conclusões, entende-se que é por meio das vivências e das relações emocionais-afetivas, do conhecer de si que o aluno participa da sua transformação própria e do meio em que ele está inserido, o que lhe permite compreender o Eu, o Outro e o Mundo, que seria a condição fundamental para criar um mundo mais humanizado, solidário e feliz. The objective of this work is to reflect on the pedagogical practice of school physical education, having as guideline the human movement and the emotional -affective relationships between teachers and students. The investigation was characterized as theoretical-bibliographic and it emerged from the rescue of memories kept in the "trunk" of a pedagogical journey from children education to higher education, in Blumenau, SC - Brazil. Starting from theoretical basis on the teaching- learning process, an approximation between the Elenor Kunz theory of "self-movement" and the "dialogic education" of Paulo Freire was identified. These educational concepts contributed to ground this investigation mainly showing that when students and teachers walk together as knowledge builders, as they face a problem or social need, this knowledge is changed into a permanent experience exchange. For this purpose, however, the process has to be meaningful and this meaning happens as the object apprehension is more than just its captation, an interaction between emotion, affection, love and more scientific teaching processes becomes necessary, otherwise there is no teaching-learning process. Thus, the ways for the production and expression of singularized subjective elements are widened, to value relationships that are established with oneself and in the collective sphere of one's social existence. As conclusions, it is possible to understand that it is through experiences and emotional-affective relationships of knowing himself or herself that the student takes part in his or her own transformation and of the environment in which he or she is inserted, that allows him or her to understand the Self. the Other and the World, that would be a fundamental condition to create a more humanized, solidary and happy world
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
