Experiências socio-profissionais de egressos da Escola Família Agrícola de Vale do Sol-RS (EFASOL)
This article aims to analyze the socio-professional experiences of graduates of the Escola Familia Agricola de Vale do Sol - EFASOL, located in the community of Linha Formosa, in the interior of the municipality of Vale do Sol, RS. The four pillars of the school are: association, pedagogy of alternation, integral formation and development of the environment. The trajectory of the young graduates was analyzed through their socio-professional insertion and the relationship of this process with rural development at the regional level. In order to carry out the research, which was characterized as qualitative, it was decided to develop a case study based on the phenomenological approach method. The research was carried out with a universe of 62 young people who had graduated from EFASOL and it was found that 84% of the young people still reside in their cities of origin when they went to study at EFASOL. Of the total number of young people surveyed. 95.2% live in the Vale do Rio Pardo region, 69.4% live in the countryside and 88.7% are linked to agriculture. In this case, the importance of a contextualized education for rural youth is perceived, creating new challenges and possibilities for regional development.Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar as experiências socioprofissionais de egressos/as da Escola Família Agrícola de Vale do Sol-RS (EFASOL), localizada na comunidade de Linha Formosa, interior do município de Vale do Sol, RS.

Nesse caso, percebe-se a importância de uma educação contextualizada para a juventude do campo, criando novos desafios e possibilidades para o desenvolvimento regional
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
Agroecologia e decolonialidade: reflexões teóricas para o desenvolvimento regional
This article aims to build a reflection on elements inherent to agroecological thinking, based on realities in crisis intertwined with issues of regional development and sustainability. It analyzes the theoretical foundation of agroecology, with an emphasis on family farming. From the understanding that it is necessary to formulate theories capable of capturing the processes and practices of peripheral countries, the decolonial thought emerges, offering a new paradigm to embody a broader and more inclusive rationality, one that can grasp the infinite richness and diversity of social experience worldwide. The objective is to analyze agroecology from a decolonial perspective, bringing it closer to the critique of the logic that sustains the epistemic sovereignty of modern science.Este artículo tiene como objetivo construir una reflexión sobre los elementos inherentes al pensamiento agroecológico, a partir de realidades en crisis entrelazadas con las cuestiones de desarrollo regional y sostenibilidad. Se analiza la base teórica de la agroecología, con énfasis en la agricultura familiar. A partir de la comprensión de que es necesario formular teorías capaces de captar los procesos y prácticas de los países periféricos, surge el pensamiento decolonial, un nuevo paradigma que encarna una racionalidad diferente, amplia y abarcadora, capaz de aprehender la infinita riqueza y diversidad de la experiencia social en todo el mundo. El objetivo es analizar la agroecología desde una perspectiva decolonial, acercándola a la denuncia de la lógica que sostiene la soberanía epistémica de la ciencia moderna.Este artigo tem como objetivo construir uma reflexão sobre elementos inerentes ao pensamento agroecológico, a partir de realidades em crise imbricadas nas questões de desenvolvimento regional e sustentabilidade. Analisa-se a base teórica da agroecologia, com ênfase na agricultura familiar. A partir do entendimento de que é preciso formular teorias capazes de captar os processos e práticas dos países periféricos, surge o pensamento decolonial, um novo paradigma a encarnar uma outra racionalidade ampla e abrangente, capaz de apreender a riqueza infinita e a diversidade da experiência social em todo o mundo. O objetivo é analisar a agroecologia sob a ótica decolonial, aproximando-a da denúncia da lógica que sustenta soberania epistêmica da ciência moderna
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
