1. Educazione e sport: connessioni pedagogiche tra teoria e prassi. Dialogando e riflettendo con l’olimpionica Emanuela Pierantozzi
Il saggio propone una riflessione critica sul ruolo della pedagogia nel mondo dello Sport dialogando con Emanuela Pierantozzi, campionessa olimpica e mondiale che, stimolata da alcune domande, sottolinea il fondamento di un rapporto pedagogico e sportivo per la formazione delle nuove generazioni. Di qui il lavoro di riflessione e di comparazione a due voci su criticità e punti di forza dell’educare allenando, dell’utilizzare le risorse pedagogiche per educare allo sport e per formare anche in questo settore cittadini, persone pensanti e capaci di imparare a conoscersi in un confronto dialettico con se stessi, con gli altri e con l’ambiente che li circonda, quindi, in un rapporto di stretta dipendenza e interdipendenza tra vita sociale e vita sportiva
Visual Search Strategy in Judo Fighters During the Execution of the First Grip
Visual search behaviour is believed to be very relevant for athlete performance, especially for sports requiring refined visuo-motor coordination skills. Modern coaches believe that optimal visuo-motor strategy may be part of advanced training programs. Gaze behaviour of expert and novice judo fighters was investigated while they were doing a real sport-specific task. The athletes were tested while they performed a first grip either in an attack or defence condition. The results showed that expert judo fighters use a search strategy involving fewer fixations of longer duration than their novice counterparts. Experts spent a greater percentage of their time fixating on lapel and face with respect to other areas of the scene. On the contrary, the most frequently fixed cue for novice group was the sleeve area. It can be concluded that experts orient their gaze in the middle of the scene, both in attack and in defence, in order to gather more information at once, perhaps using parafoveal vision
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
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
Shin-Gi-Tai and juveniles (8-12 years):contribution of researches and scientific works
Shin (mind) Ghi (technic) Tai (body) is the triptych proposed by Kano Jigoro to give significance to grades, taking in account what wrote philosophers as Montesquieu, Comte, Hegel and Rousseau. This triptych looks like the one of Sciences of Education (cognitive, psychomotor and affective) in which Bandura added a social dimension. The pole Shin is carried out with the preference "learning to respect the other (rank 1).We can find explanations with the others poles 'Gi' and 'Tai', in these exercises (very often during training session in the dojo) judokas are doing something to permit to other to understand what they have to do, how they can organize themselves better. We can display that during training, specifically for kids (therefore their parents) judo may improve altruism and social dimension. We all know "Mutual help and prosperity", the goal in judo should be to win within the exchanges with the others
- Shin: investigation and comparisons between children in school and club (changes / developments on the choices and preferences by taking into account the level of belts, gender, and socio-professional categories of parents)
- Ghi: something to approach the system of attack; we can present our work on different shifts and different ways to project (with one or two supports, lifting or without lifting) the partner
- Tai: simple remind with leger-mercier test adapted judo, to go to the SJFT
- Social dimension as a conclusion:
judo education has not presented enough this fact: very often in judo Tori does not act to score a point but to allow uke's improvements.
Judo is primarily a social relationship, before being a combat sport
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
