Body perception in cremation burial practices in Postclassic Middle Balsas River basin: Supplementary material 1. Biological profile of individuals
No full textThis collection contains the results of the bioarchaeological analysis of cremation burials from the Los Tamarindos archaeological site from Tierra Caliente, Michoacan in the form of Supplementary Material. They are part of a doctoral dissertation at the University of Warsaw being prepared by the author of this supplement. This file additionally serves as an appendix to the manuscript in review on body perception in cremation burial practices in the Middle Balsas region during Postclassic period. The main text .rtf file contains a description of the methods used, data on the biological profile of the individuals buried in the burials examined, and a description and interpretation of the recorded paleopathological lesions. Moreover, Table Biological profile contains plain compilation of age and sex assessments of individuals without regard to description and footnotes. Each documentation photograph of paleopathological lesions are also provided in separate .tiff photograph.</p
The Postclassic cremation burial rites in the Middle Balsas region, Tierra Caliente Michoacán
No full textThis dataset contains the results of a doctoral dissertation entitled “The Postclassic cremation burial rites in the Middle Balsas region, Tierra Caliente Michoacán” prepared at the Doctoral School of Humanities of the University of Warsaw within the discipline of archaeology, dedicated to cremation burials from the Los Tamarindos site in the state of Michoacán.It consists of a set of digital data for three components of this work:spatial analysis in the form of models in GIS,documentation of exploration in the form of photogrammetry, andraw data in tabular summaries.The latter group represents qualitative data resulting from bioarchaeological analysis and quantitative data collected during analysis according to Jacqueline McKinley's analytical protocol from the publication McKinley, Jacqueline I. The Anglo-Saxon Cemetery at Spong Hill, North Elmham: The cremations. Vol. 8. East Anglian Archaeology, 1994. and Elżbieta Jaskulska described in Jaskulska, Elżbieta. “Analysis of human cremains.” Warsaw: University of Warsaw (2020).

Wyniki bioarcheologicznej analizy popielnic z cmentarzyska Los Tamarindos, Meksyk
No full textKażdy plik zawiera dane jakościowe i ilościowe uzyskane podczas analizy dziesięciu popielnic zawierających przepalone szczątki ludkzie z cmentarza Los Tamarindos znajdującego się w rejonie Tierra Caliente w stanie Michoacan. Protokół analityczny oparty jest na metodologii opracowanej przez Jaskulską i opisanej w podręczniku "Analysis of Human Cremains" https://www.researchgate.net/publication/338410101_Analysis_of_Human_Cremains.Przedstawione tu informacje obejmują informacje paleodemograficzne (płeć, kohorta wiekowa) oraz wskazaniem konkretnych cech diagnostycznych, które posłużyły do oceny płci i/lub wieku osobników oraz ewentualne dane o zmianach paleopatologicznych zidentyfikowanych w pochówkach. Dane ilościowe zawierają informacje o rozdrobnieniu pochówków rozumianym jako masa trzech frakcji wielkościowych uzyskanych w wyniku przesiania pochówku przez zestaw trzech kalibrowanych sit. Wszystkie wartości procentowe, w tym RAI (rate of anatomical identifications) oparte są na wartościach wagowych poszczególnych aspektów pochówku. Dodatkowo, fragmentacja jest oceniana na podstawie pomiarów największych fragmentów kości. Baza danych zawiera również informacje o przebarwieniach chromatycznych kości, a na ostatnim arkuszu każdego pliku umieszczono szczegółową listę wszystkich zidentyfikowanych fragmentów kości.Jeśli popielnica była wydobywana warstwami mechanicznymi, dane dla każdej z warstw prezentowane są oddzielnie.Każdy plik dostępny jest w dwóch formatach: .ods (Open Document Format) oraz .xlsx (Office Open XML)</p
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
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
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
