Internacionalismo científico y religioso. discurso y práctica de la política científica de abdus salam
Get PDFEn este trabajo muestro cómo se entrelazan los discursas rc1igiosos y científicos en los espacios de interacción y negociación política. De forma complementaria muestro cómo una estrategia de cooperación científica puede verse desde la perspectiva de la sociología de las religiones. De forma específica me concentro en e! caso del Premio Nobel de Física de 1979, Abdus Salam, musulmán y paquistaní. Su discurso acerca de la colaboración científica es una prolongación del discurso "revitalista" islámico. Similarmente, su decisión de optar por el apoyo de Naciones Unidas tiene grandes coincidencias con la estrategia que su comunidad religiosa optó para protegerla de posibles ataques. PALABRAS CLAVES. Ciencia, religión, Islam, internacionalismo cientifico
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
Contextos de la psicología: Agustín Nieto Caballero, sus relaciones y la construcción de la pedagogía
Get PDFEl presente trabajo muestra la manera en que se configuran los recursos conceptuales y prácticos de la psicología europea y la pedagogía activa en la institucionalidad del Gimnasio Moderno de Bogotá. A través de los conceptos derivados de los Estudios Sociales de la Ciencia, en torno a los problemas de la localización y adaptación del conocimiento y las experiencias de movilización de técnicas de socialización y pedagogía de la ciencia, se obtiene un relato que vincula las formas de movilización de la psicología y la pedagogía europea de Montessori y Decroly. Además es posible observar las formas de adaptación del conocimiento y las prácticas en función de la contextualización, los intereses y las posibilidades de los actores que performan un espacio para la aplicación de los métodos.Maestrí
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
