Evaluación del desarrollo motor de los escolares de 6 a 10 años en la Región del Maule, Chile
No full textNo doubt each motor activity is the basis of all further learning; children\u27s natural happiness when moving, and their feeling of being "in control" after acquiring movement skills favor both their physical and mental health. When this is accomplished, it plays a significant role in children\u27s ability to concentrate on and master their homework.
Keeping this in mind, it was deemed important to carry out a study that would allow us to learn about motor skills development of six-to-ten year-old school children of the Maule Region in Chile. The number of students assessed in this study was 2.824. Results will contribute to making a diagnosis of the current situation, and together with a solid scientific base, they will contribute to the planning of future steps aiming at developing a more authentic and meaningful learning experience for children, within the context of psychomotor development.Es indudable que todo acto motor es la base de todo aprendizaje posterior, la natural alegría del niño en eI movimiento y su sensación de dominio cuando adquiere habilidades de movimiento, favorece la salud física y mental, cuando mejora tiene implicancia en la capacidad del niño de concentrarse en sus tareas y aprenderlas.
Por lo anterior, consideramos importante realizar un estudio que nos permitiera conocer el desarrollo de las habilidades motrices de Ios estudiantes entre 6 a 10 años de edad de la Región del Maule (se evaluaron 2824 estudiantes) ya que ello ayudará a diagnosticar su situación actual lo que nos permitirá con una sólida base científica ir pensando en futuros pasos que nos concedan ir favoreciendo aprendizajes más auténticos y significativos para nuestros niños y niñas en el ámbito del desarrollo psicomotor
Comparación del rendimiento físico en las pruebas de salto horizontal y course Navette, entre jóvenes de 10 a 18 años de la Región del Maule (Chile) y Cataluña (España)
No full textThe level of physical fitness is a good indicator of the state of general health among the inhabitants of a country, this is the reason why most of them, especially those with highly developed technical skills, have oriented part of their interest towards the investigation of the population behavior in respect to the levels of physical fitness. Chile is today in this situation, trying to discover the physical potential of its population and to see how it is in relation to other more developed countries such as Catalonia, Spain.
We think that this study will provide us with new elements judgment for implementing future programs that will improve physical condition in the school population of our country, as well as provide global attention to the problem.
For this purpose we have studied two factors of physical condition wich are explosive strength and cardiorespiratory endurance in a group of Chilean students who are between 10 and 18 years old, and then we compared the results with a similar sample of Catalonian young people.
The study allows us to conclude that in these two physical tests, the Catalonian students present a performance significantly superior to that observed in the students of the Region of Maule, Chile.El nivel de la condición física es un buen indicador del estado de salud general de los habitantes de un país. De ahí que la mayoría de ellos, especialmente los altamente desarrollados y tecnificados, hayan orientado parte de su interés a la investigación del comportamiento de la población en lo que respecta a niveles de condición física. En esta situación se encuentra hoy Chile: conocer el potencial físico de su población y ver cómo se encuentra éste con relación a países más desarrollados como es el caso de Cataluña, España.
Esto creemos que nos permitirá encontrar nuevos elementos de juicio para implementar futuros programas de mejora de la condición física en la población escolar de nuestro país, lo cual nos ayudará a darle una atención global al problema.
Para ello hemos procedido a estudiar dos factores de la condición física: la fuerza explosiva y la resistencia cardiorespiratoria de un grupo de estudiantes chilenos de 10 a 18 años. Luego estos resultados los compararemos con una muestra semejante de jóvenes catalanes.
El estudio nos permite concluir que en estas dos pruebas físicas, los estudiantes catalanes presentan un rendimiento significativamente superior al que se observa en los escolares de la Región del Maule, Chile
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
