Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
The Development of Early and Preschool Children's Motor and Functional Abilities
No full textUnutar antropoloških obilježja izdvajaju se motoričke i funkcionalne sposobnosti koje se smatraju važnim čimbenikom cjelokupnog dječjeg razvoja. Naime, urednost razvoja motoričkih i funkcionalnih sposobnosti te njihovo unapređenje omogućuje djetetu postizanje boljih rezultata tijekom bavljenja kineziološkom aktivnošću i očuvanje biotičkih motoričkih znanja. Za njihov uredan razvoj potrebno je omogućiti djetetu slobodu kretanja, slobodne igre i druženja, slažu se mnogu stručnjaci. Iako su motoričke i funkcionalne sposobnosti podložne pozitivnim i negativnim promjenama koje su rezultat plastičnosti dječjeg organizma, u njihovom unapređenju treba težiti da se zadovolje primarne dječje potrebe te znanju o stupnju razvoja u kojem se dijete nalazi. Kineziološka aktivnost s naglaskom na unapređenje motoričkih i funkcionalnih sposobnosti ako se primjenjuje mimo zadovoljavanja dječjih potreba i ako nije u skladu s razvojnim stupnjem djeteta može drastično unazaditi senzitivni razvoj sposobnosti. Ovaj rad temelji se na određenim podatcima istraživanja razvoja motoričkih i funkcionalnih sposobnosti djece rane i predškolske dobi, njihovom razvoju i mogućnostima unapređenja sposobnosti. U radu su spominjana obilježja rasta i razvoja djeteta s naglaskom na motorički razvoj i razvoj unutarnjih sustava (srčano-žilni sustav i dišni sustav), antropološka obilježja u ranoj i predškolskoj dobi te uloga odgojitelja u razvoju sposobnosti.Within anthropological characteristics, motor and functional abilities are highlighted as important factors in overall child development. Namely, the proper development of motor and functional abilities and their improvement enable a child to achieve better results during engagement in kinesiology activities and to preserve biotic motor skills. For their proper development, it is necessary to provide the child with freedom of movement, free play, and social interaction, as agreed upon by many experts. Although motor and functional abilities are subject to positive and negative changes due to the plasticity of a child's body, their improvement should strive to meet primary children's needs, as well as an understanding of the developmental stage the child is in. Kinesiology activities, with an emphasis on improving motor and functional abilities, if applied without considering children's needs and developmental stages, can significantly impair the sensitive development of these abilities. This paper is based on specific data from research on the development of motor and functional abilities in early and preschool-aged children, their development, and possibilities for improving these abilities. The paper discusses characteristics of child growth and development, with an emphasis on motor development and the development of internal systems (cardiovascular and respiratory systems), anthropological characteristics of early and preschool age, and the role of educators in the development of these abilities

Redovita tjelesna aktivnost ima mnoge pozitivne učinke na tjelesno, emocionalno i
kognitivno blagostanje djece.
Nedovoljna tjelesna aktivnost u ranom i predškolskom odgoju i obrazovanju može se
odraziti u kvaliteti života, stoga je važno poticati djecu na tjelesnu aktivnost i stvoriti
okruženje u kojemu će se svakodnevno prakticirati kineziološke aktivnosti.
Ukratko, tjelesna aktivnost ima brojne prednosti za djecu i igra ključnu ulogu u njihovom
cjelokupnom zdravlju i razvoju. Roditelji i odgojitelji trebali bi poticati i omogućiti djeci
redovitu i raznovrsnu tjelesnu aktivnost kako bi im omogućili sretan i zdrav život.
Vrste kineziološki aktivnosti u predškolskom odgoju i obrazovanju su: tjelesni odgoj,
poticajno tjelesno vježbanje, jutarnje tjelesno vježbanje, tjelesno aktivne pauze,
tjelesno vježbanje s roditeljima, šetnje, sportski trening, te aktivnosti koji se provode
izvan ustanove ranog i predškolskog odgoja i obrazovanja, a one su: izlet, zimovanje i
ljetovanje.Physical activity in children plays a key role in their healthy growth and development.
Regular physical activity has many positive effects on children's physical, emotional
and cognitive well-being.
Insufficient physical activity in early and preschool education can be reflected in the
quality of life, therefore it is important to encourage children to be physically active and
to create an environment in which kinesiology activities will be practiced every day.
In short, physical activity has numerous benefits for children and plays a key role in
their overall health and development. Parents and educators should encourage
children to engage in regular and varied physical activity in order to enable them to
lead a happy and healthy life.
Types of kinesiology activities in preschool education are: physical education,
stimulating physical exercise, morning physical exercise, physically active breaks,
physical exercise with parents, walks, sports training, and activities that are carried out
outside the institution of early and preschool education and education, and they are:
excursions, wintering and summer holidays
Synchronized swimming
Get PDFUmjetničko je plivanje jedan od najzahtjevnijih sportova na svijetu. To je sport koji u sebi sadrži elemente drugih sportova. Kada govorimo u kontekstu natjecanja u ovom sportu – radi se o spoju sporta i umjetnosti. Iako relativno nov sport, umjetničko plivanje datira još od antičkih vremena kada su se u umjetno konstruiranim arenama na kopnu izvodili prikazi pomorskih bitki pri kojima je sudjelovalo pravo brodovlje. Ipak, specifičan se sport umjetničko plivanje razvija krajem 19. i početkom 20. stoljeća, a tek nedavno se ulaže u njegovu međunarodnu standardizaciju i natjecateljsku institucionalizaciju. Jedna je od zanimljivosti nastanka ovoga sporta i njegov feministički moment. U radu su prikazane dobrobiti umjetničkog plivanja u najranijoj dobi kao i razvoj umjetničkog plivanja u Hrvatskoj
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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
The Organisation of Physical Exercising
No full textOrganizacija tjelesnog vježbanja složen je proces koji se sastoji od više čimbenika i
definicijom se ne može iskazati ni njihov broj ni njihova povezanost. U odgojno-obrazovnom sustavu organizaciji procesa tjelesnog vježbanja pristupa se prvo opće, a zatim usmjereno. Opća organizacija procesa tjelesnog vježbanja odnosi se na vrste kinezioloških aktivnosti. Usmjerena organizacija tjelesnog vježbanja odnosi se primarno na načine raspoređivanja djece po vježbovnom prostoru tijekom kinezioloških aktivnosti sa svrhom postizanja racionalnijeg i efikasnijeg odgojno-obrazovnog procesa. Vrsta, polukrug, krug, kolona i proizvoljno razvrstavanje osnovni su načini raspoređivanja djece po vježbalištu. Jednostavnim postavama pripadaju postava pojedinačna, postava dvojke, postava trojke, postava četvorke i paralelna postava za vježbanje. Složene su organizacijske postave paralelno-izmjenična, izmjenična poligonska organizacijska postava. Svaka kineziološka aktivnost u odgojno-obrazovnom sustavu organizirani je proces tjelesnog vježbanja i njime je potrebno kvalitetno upravljati.The organization of physical exercise is a complex process that consists of factors,
and neither their number nor their connection can be expressed by definition. In the
educational system, the organization of the process of physical exercise is approached
first in a general manner, and then in a targeted one. The general organization of the
physical exercise process refers to the types of kinesiology activities. The directed
organization of physical exercise refers primarily to the ways of arranging children in
the exercise area during kinesiology activities with the aim of achieving a more rational
and efficient educational process. Type, semicircle, circle, column and arbitrary
classification are the basic ways of arranging children on the training ground. Simple
formations include single formation, formation of two, formation of three, formation of
four and parallel formation for training. Complex organizational setups are parallel-
alternating, alternating and polygonal organizational setups. Every kinesiological
activity in the educational system is an organized process of physical exercise, and it needs to be managed well
