Uma análise sócio-histórica sobre a instrumentalidade profissional no serviço social
Este artigo oferece uma análise sócio-histórica sobre a instrumentalidade profissional no campo do serviço social brasileiro. Busca explicitar os elementos teóricos, técnicos e políticos presentes nesta discussão atrelados ao movimento contraditório da realidade social. O texto centra-se em duas partes articuladas e complementares. A primeira elucida o modo como a instrumentalidade foi apreendida e utilizada nos primórdios da profissão à década de 60. A segunda faz essa análise no contexto da renovação profissional à implementação das Diretrizes Curriculares de 1996, problematizando a temática na atualidade, tendo como eixo analítico a nova proposta de formação profissional
Marx's social theory: knowledge and contributions to the work of social worker
This article highlights the contributions of Marx social theory to the work of the social worker, clarifying knowledge and important mediations resulting from this methodological-theoretical perspective in the professional field. In its composition, initially presents a general overview about the Marxist thought insertion in the Brazilian social service, in the sequence, discusses the role of social theory in the profession scope, punctuating biases related to this issue, particularly regarding to technical-professional instrumentation. Based on these considerations, it highlights knowledge production advances in Social Work from its dialogue interlocution with the Marxist production and its tradition, which decisively contributed to oxygenate and qualify the profession as well as to offer theoretical political subsidies to the work of Social Worker
Trabalho e instrumentalidade no campo profissional do Serviço Social (Work and professional field instrumentality social service) Doi: 10.5212/Emancipacao.v.15i1.0002
Este artigo discute o trabalho e a instrumentalidade profissional no serviço social no contexto da reestruturação produtiva e das novas formas de precarização e intensificação do trabalho. Sua construção pautou-se em uma pesquisa realizada com assistentes sociais, com aportes em autores do campo da teoria social de Marx – que têm na historicidade, na totalidade e na contradição as categorias centrais para o desvendamento do real. Partindo do pressuposto de que o serviço social só pode ser entendido em sua densidade histórica no âmbito da sociabilidade capitalista, discute-se a profissão no processo de produção e reprodução das relações sociais, particularizando sua inserção na divisão sociotécnica do trabalho, reconhecendo o assistente social como um trabalhador assalariado. </span
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
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
