    Artigos teóricos na área da filosofia da análise do comportamento apontam que a maneira mediante a qual os estudos comparativos entre o behaviorismo radical e o pragmatismo vêm sendo feitos produziram semelhanças superficiais, devido à falta de uma compreensão integral dos sistemas desses autores. Ao mesmo tempo, alguns teóricos da análise do comportamento afirmam a existência de semelhanças relevantes e pouco exploradas entre as filosofias de Peirce e Skinner. O objetivo deste trabalho foi buscar uma compreensão da epistemologia peirceana, integrada em seu sistema filosófico, de maneira a possibilitar uma comparação entre seus conceitos e os do behaviorismo radical.Foi escolhida a obra de Skinner do período de 1980 a 1990, que apresenta o pensamento desse autor nos últimos anos de sua produção. De Peirce, foi escolhida a obra “Chance Love and Logic”, que era a única obra de Peirce que se encontrava no acervo pessoal de Skinner, de acordo com a sua autobiografia “The Shaping of a Behaviorist”. Essa obra cobre 30 anos de produção de Peirce, o que permite pensar que é representativa de seu pensamento. Foram definidas cinco categorias de análise que guiaram a leitura do material: conhecimento, concepções de verdade, psicologia e comportamento, lógica e ciência. Os resultados obtidos apontaram grandes diferenças entre os dois autores. Em primeiro lugar, apresentam diferentes tipos de selecionismo, sendo que Skinner apresenta a seleção por consequências, e Peirce, um selecionismo associacionista. No selecionismo de Peirce não parece haver influência de consequências na definição das classes de fenômenos, o que é uma divergência fundamental entre Peirce e Skinner. Outra diferença diz respeito à concepção de realidade e verdade. Para Peirce, a ciência tem como tarefa chegar à opinião verdadeira, que corresponde à realidade e é reconhecida por ser uma regra efetiva de ação. Para Skinner, a ciência deve procurar ser efetiva, mas esse autor não trata de realidades ou verdades. A ocorrência dessas divergências, que acontece em relação às cinco categorias de análise, parece corresponder ao interesse na aplicação dos conhecimentos científicos para a resolução de problemas sociais, que estava mais presente em Skinner do que em Peirce. Os resultados revelaram uma posição diferente da dos autores que têm tratado do tema na literatura. Esse resultado aponta para a importância de um estudo subsequente, que leve em conta mais aspectos de cada sistema para fortalecer os presentes achadosSome theoretical papers in the field of the philosophy of behavior analysis make the case that superficial afinities were being found between radical behaviorism and other philosophies due to lack of an integrated understanding of the sistems being compared. At the same time, some philosophers in behavior analysis were afirming the existence of relevant similarities between the philosophies of Peirce and Skinner that hadn’t been duly explored. The objective of this work was to produce a comprehension of Peirce’s epistemology integrated in its philosophical system, to facilitate a comparison between its concepts and those of radical behaviorismo. The material used to study Skinner’s philosophy were some papers between the period of 1980 to 1990 that were considered to be mainly about his theoretical and philosophical inclinations. We believe this restriction does not limit greatly the value of this work, given that our interest was not to analise the whole of Skinner’s thought. The material used to study Peirce’s philosophy was the book “Chance Love and Logic”, mainly because it was the only book by Peirce owned by Skinner, according to Skinner’s autobiography “The Shaping of a Behaviorist”. That work covers about thirty years of Peirce’s production, which allows us to consider it representative of his system. We defined five categories of analysis that guided the reading of the material: knowledge, conceptions of truth, psychology and behavior, logic and science. The results obtained pointed to great diferences between the authors. Firstly, They present diferent kinds of selectionism, Skinner presented selection by consequences, and Peirce presents a selectionism that is associacionistic. In Peirce’s selectionism there is no influence of consequences in the definition of classes of events produced by selection, and so we have a fundamental divergence between Peirce and Skinner. Another difference shows itself concerning the conceptions of truth and reality. To Peirce, science has the incumbence of reaching true opinion, an opinion that corresponds with reality and is recognized for being an effective rule of action. To Skinner science must lead to effective action, but is not concerned with truth or reality. The ocurrence of such diferences across the five categories seems to be related to the interest each author has in the aplication of scientific knowledge to the resolution of social issues, which was more presente in Skinner. These findings revealed a difference from what other authors in literature were saying. This however only points to the importance of further studies that takes into account more aspects of each system to corroborate the findings here presente

    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
