Matronas Afro-pacíficas. Tterritorialidade, gênero e resistência às violências no Pacífico sul colombiano
Neste artigo, proponho abordar a territorialidade afro-pacífica a partir da ideia do território-água – uma territorialidade fluida. São as Matronas que dão sentido a tal concepção e vivência territorial. Essas mulheres constroem entre elas redes de irmandade política e afetiva, conectando o ambiente doméstico com o domínio político. A partir de suas posições de parteiras, curandeiras, rezadeiras, cantadoras e/ou conselheiras, tornam-se lideranças em organizações afro/negras, em organizações de mulheres e de mulheres negras. As Matronas são peça-chave na resistência do povo afro-pacífico em um cenário de violência sociopolítica. Elas resistem à ação bélica organizada insistindo em manter os circuitos de reciprocidade que sustentam a solidariedade intraétnica
Histórias de vida e ancestralidades afro-pindorâmicas em foco
This essay approaches life stories as a way of building education as the practice of freedom. It starts from situations experienced in 2019 and 2020 in the classroom communities with mostly black students in agriculture and agroecology courses in the federal education network. The circularity and cyclical temporality, organizers of Afro-Pindoramic collective experiences, are conceptual references that enhance the pedagogical practice. The analysis reveals life stories as a path to connect memories, ancestry and teaching-learning processes, in order to think about the decolonization of individuals and knowledge - the main objective of the experiences carried out.Este texto aborda las historias de vida como una forma de construir la educación como práctica de la libertad.

La circularidad y la temporalidad cíclica, organizadoras de experiencias colectivas afro-panorámicas, son referentes conceptuales que alumbran la práctica pedagógica. El análisis revela las historias de vida como un camino para conectar memorias, ancestralidades y procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje, con el fin de pensar la descolonización de sujetos y conocimientos - principal objetivo de las experiencias realizadas.Este ensaio aborda as histórias de vida como caminho de construção da educação como prática da liberdade.

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
