    Pour saisir les représentations sociales du football féminin dans un pays où sa pratique est perçue comme une transgression des normes socioculturelles en vigueur, l’enquête que nous avons réalisée au lycée Ahmet Fall de la commune de Saint-Louis s’est appuyée sur l’analyse des données collectées à partir d’entretiens semi directifs effectués auprès des administrateurs, des entraineurs, des familles et des joueuses du club. Cette perspective est heuristique dans la mesure où le rapport au corps, ses usages sociaux et la manière dont il est façonné et mis en jeu dans les manifestations sociales sont largement déterminés socialement. Il ressort de cette étude que les représentations sociales construites sont différenciées et constituent un système d’opposition entre celles des joueuses et de leurs familles et celles de l’environnement social. Le football féminin, considéré comme un modèle culturel occidental, n’échappe donc pas aux représentations sociales en vigueur, y compris par celles des stéréotypes de sexes.To grasp the social representations of women’s football in a country where its practice is perceived as a transgression of the sociocultural norms in force, the survey done at Ahmet Fall High School in the municipality of Saint-Louis was based on the analysis of the data collected from semi-direct interviews carried out among the club’s administrators, coaches, families and players. This perspective is heuristic insofar as the relationship to the body, its social uses and the way in which it is shaped and brought into play in social manifestations are largely socially determined. It emerges from this study that the constructed social representations are differentiated and constitute a system of opposition between those of the players and their families and those of the social environment. Therefore, women’s football, considered as a Western cultural model, does not escape the prevailing social representations, including those of gender stereotypes.Para captar las representaciones sociales del fútbol femenino en un país donde su práctica se percibe como una transgresión de las normas socioculturales vigentes, la investigación que realizamos en el liceo Ahmet Fall de la comuna de Saint-Louis se basó en el análisis de los datos recogidos a partir de entrevistas semi-directivas realizadas con los administradores, entrenadores, familias y jugadoras del club. Esta perspectiva es heurística en la medida en que la relación con el cuerpo, sus usos sociales y la forma en que se forma y se pone en juego en las manifestaciones sociales están ampliamente determinados socialmente. De este estudio se desprende que las representaciones sociales construidas son diferenciadas y constituyen un sistema de oposición entre las de las jugadoras y sus familias y las del entorno social. Así pues, el fútbol femenino, considerado como un modelo cultural occidental, no escapa a las representaciones sociales en vigor, incluidas las de los estereotipos de género

    Les navétanes : lieu d’intégration des jeunes et de construction de la citoyenneté

    No full text
    Cette recherche examine la place et le rôle des navétanes, activités sportives informelles pratiquées par des migrants, dans la société sénégalaise. L’objectif visé est de comprendre en quoi ils sont devenus des cadres d’intégration, de construction et de renforcement de la citoyenneté. Outre l’exploitation d’un corpus documentaire, l’étude s’est appuyée sur l’analyse des discours réalisée à partir des entretiens semi-directifs effectués auprès des acteurs de ce mouvement dans la commune de Thiès. Confrontées aux difficultés des cadres traditionnels de socialisation, les populations, et particulièrement les jeunes, trouvent dans les navétanes un lieu d’affirmation de leur identité. Souvent réduits à la dépendance et rarement consultés, les jeunes y voient un moyen de participer activement à la vie sociétale. Les navétanes ne sont pas seulement le lieu où se reflètent des prises de positions éthiques déjà constituées, mais sont aussi le lieu où se construisent de nouveaux liens sociaux.This research examines the place and role of navétanes, informal sports activities practiced by migrants, in Senegalese society. The aim is to understand how they have become frameworks for the integration, construction and strengthening of citizenship. In addition to the exploitation of a documentary corpus, the study was based on the analysis of discourses based on semi-directional interviews conducted with the actors of this movement in the municipality of Thiès. Faced with the difficulties of traditional settings of socialization, populations, and especially young people, find in the navétanes a place to affirm their identity. Often reduced to dependence and rarely consulted, young people see it as a way to actively participate in society. Navétanes are not only the place where ethical positions already taken are reflected, but also the place where new social ties are built.Esta investigación examina el lugar y el papel de los navetanos, actividades deportivas informales practicadas por migrantes, en la sociedad senegalesa.

Además de la explotación de un corpus documental, el estudio se basó en el análisis de los discursos realizado a partir de las entrevistas semidireccionales efectuadas a los actores de este movimiento en la comuna de Thiès. Enfrentadas a las dificultades de los marcos tradicionales de socialización, las poblaciones, y especialmente los jóvenes, encuentran en los navetanos un lugar de afirmación de su identidad. A menudo reducidos a la dependencia y raramente consultados, los jóvenes ven en ello un medio de participar activamente en la vida social. Los navetanos no son sólo el lugar donde se reflejan las tomas de posiciones éticas ya constituidas, sino también el lugar donde se construyen nuevos vínculos sociales

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    No full text
    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
