A percepção energetica como guia para a composição de poeticas corporais
No full textOrientador: Eusebio Lobo da SilvaDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de ArtesResumo: Esta dissertação objetiva discutir as relações entre a utilização consciente do Qi (conceito chinês de energia) e o desenvolvimento de processos criativos que sejam capazes de dialogar com a sociedade atual, contribuindo para a formação técnica e criativa de atores-bailarinos através da verificação da influência da percepção energética na composição de poéticas corporais. Parte do pressuposto que a energia é um elemento essencial para o desenvolvimento da percepção, pois ao mesmo tempo em que podemos percebê-la movendo nosso corpo, podemos conduzi-Ia para fins específicos, o que nos conduz ao seguinte problema: Será que ao estudarmos o desenvolvimento da percepção energética como guia para a construção de poéticas corporais estaremos contribuindo para o desenvolvimento técnico e criativo do artista - pesquisador, ator bailarino, desvendando uma poética que possa ser transcriada a favor de uma qualidade mais sutil de movimento e "dizer" artístico? Sendo esta uma pesquisa experimental e qualitativa, na qual concepção e realização são concomitantes, abordamos seu conteúdo através de dois procedimentos: a) observacional- descritivo e b) experimental- analítico, buscando compor um corpo discursivo sobre a relação entre energia e expressividade. Ao analisarmos os laboratórios práticos (compostos por alguns exercícios que desenvolvem a percepção da energia concomitantemente com trabalhos de improvisação e composição coreográfica) e as nossas experiências como performer constatamos que a percepção energética age sobre a presença cênica, sobre a qualidade e refinamento dos movimentos, sobre a clareza da intenção e no que diz respeito à integridade do bailarino, o que conseqüentemente refletirá em trabalhos mais elaborados e consistentesAbstract: This dissertation intends to discuss the relationship between the conscious utilization of Chinese Energy Conception ("Qi") and the creative processes development that could be able to dialogue with the present society; thus contributing to the technical and creative formation of actors-dancers, through the verification of the influence of energetic perception on the poetic corporal compositions. On the assumption that energy is an essential element to the development of the perception; as we can at the same time feel the energy moving our body or it could be directed for a specific finality, we ask: Could the study of energetic perception as a guide to the construction of the poetic-corporal composition contribute to the technical and creative development of the artist-researcher, actor dancer? and at the same time unveil a poetic that could be converted in behalf of a better quality of the tenuous movement and artistic "saying. This is an experimental and qualitative research, with concomitant conception and realization. Therefore we approach its contents in two procedures: a) observational - descriptive and b) experimental - ana1ytic, searching a discourse composition about the relationship of energy and expressiveness. Upon analyzing the practical works (composed by several exercises that develop the energy perception concomitant with works of improvisation and choreography composition) and our experiences as a performer, we could verify that the energetic perception perform on scenic presence, on the quality and refinement of the movements, on explicitness of intention and in respect to the integrity of the dancer what consequently will reflect more elaborated and consistent worksMestradoArtesMestre em Arte
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
CONTRIBUIÇÕES DA TEORIA LABANIANA PARA O DESENVOLVIMENTO DO TRABALHO COM PRÁTICAS CORPORAIS NO SISTEMA ÚNICO DE SAÚDE
Get PDFWe present the results of a research including two fields of experimentation, interviews and systematic observations aimed at understanding how Labanian theory may contribute to the work of health professionals with bodily practices in Brazil’s Unified Health System. Participants were ten professionals and it was implemented in two health facilities in São Paulo, SP, Brazil, enabling discussions about three ways of conducting bodily practices: observation and/or imitation of movement sequences; quality of verbal interactions; diversifying teaching strategies. It found that Labanian theory worked, in these cases, in the constitution and improvement of the work with the bodily practices and it is an important reference for training professionals who do such work, pointing to the need to invest in the dissemination of this framework in public health services. Presentamos los resultados de una investigación compuesta por dos campos de experimentación, entrevistas y observaciones sistemáticas, cuyo objetivo era comprender cómo la teoría de Laban puede contribuir al trabajo de los profesionales de salud que actúan con prácticas corporales en el Sistema Único de Salud.

Son ellos: la observación y/o imitación de secuencias de movimiento; la calidad de las interacciones verbales; la diversificación de estrategias didácticas. Se constató que la teoría de Laban actuó, en estos casos, en la constitución y mejora del trabajo con las prácticas corporales y se concluyó que es una referencia importante para la formación de profesionales que trabajan con estas acciones, lo que indica la necesidad de invertir en la difusión de esta referencia en los servicios públicos de salud.

Contributions of Laban\'s theory to work with corporal practices on SUS: two experiences with healthcare professionals
No full textPara estudar como a teoria labaniana pode contribuir com o trabalho dos profissionais de saúde que atuam ou desejam atuar com as práticas corporais no SUS, conduzi uma pesquisa ação participante em dois equipamentos de saúde: o CECCO Bacuri e a UMT. A investigação, de natureza qualitativa, foi composta por: um campo de experimentação, fundamentado nas orientações para a formação de professores propostas por Rudolf Laban e direcionado à dez sujeitos que ministram as práticas a mais de dois anos. Também foi constituída por por revisão de literatura referente à inserção das práticas corporais no serviço público, à Corêutica, à Eucinética e aos dezesseis temas de movimento; e por entrevistas semiestruturadas e observações sistemáticas. Para chegar aos resultados, extraímos das falas dos participantes e de nossos registros os trechos que fizeram alusão a Laban ou a sua teoria e os analisamos com base no referencial teórico. Tal processo permitiu a identificação de três modos de se conduzir as práticas corporais. São eles: o que se processa pela observação e imitação das diferentes formas e qualidades de movimentos; o acionado através das interações verbais partilhadas por usuários e profissionais de saúde; e o realizado através da diversificação dos procedimentos didáticos, da criatividade e da ludicidade. Por meio de reflexões sobre esses modos mostramos a importância do trabalho em equipe nas ações que visam promover e produzir saúde, registramos que a teoria labaniana potencializou a observação, o reconhecimento e a experimentação do corpo em movimento, que ela auxiliou os participantes a conversarem sobre o que é possível ensinar através das práticas corporais e, a selecionar conteúdos, mobilizar e diversificar estratégias didáticas. Além disso, relatamos discussões que versaram sobre o uso intencional da palavra, sobre as maneiras de se refinar a execução do movimento e sobre o que poderia vir a ser focalizado nas capacitações direcionadas à formação dos profissionais de saúde que atuam com as práticas corporais na atenção básica. Com base nessas nesses registros pudemos verificar a força e o potencial da teoria labaniana, no que se refere, principalmente, ao esclarecimento de conteúdos e estratégias didáticas a serem desenvolvidas nas ações com diferentes modalidades e estilos de práticas corporais. Sendo assim, concluímos que a teoria labaniana atuou justamente na constituição e no aprimoramento do trabalho dos profissionais que participaram desse estudo, de modo a apontarmos para a possibilidade de se investir na difusão desse referencial nos serviços públicos de saúdeTo study how Laban\'s theory can contribute to the work of health professionals who work or wish to work with corporal practices in SUS, we conducted a participant action research in two health equipment: CECCO Bacuri and UMT. The research, qualitative in nature, was composed by a field of experimentation, based on guidelines for the training of teachers proposed by Rudolf Laban and directed the ten people who teach the practice to more than two years. It was also composed by literature review concerning the insertion of corporal practices in the public service; by studies of the choreutics, the eucinetics and the sixteen movement themes; by semi-structured interviews and systematic observations. To identify the results, we draw lines of participants and our records the excerpts that alluded to Laban or his theory and analyzed based on the theoretical framework. This process enabled the identification of three driving modes corporal practices. They are: observation and imitation of movement sequences; the quality of verbal interactions processed on professional relationship/user; the diversification of educational procedures, creativity and playfulness. Through the reflections on such modes, we show the importance of teamwork in the actions that aim to promote and produce health. We recorded that the Laban\' theory potentiated the observation, the recognition and the experimentation of the body in motion, it assisted the participants to talk about what is possible to teach through corporal practices and select content, mobilize and diversify educational strategies. In addition, we report discussions that focused on the intentional use of the word, about the ways to refine the exercise and about what could be focused on training directed of health professionals who work with corporal practices in the basic attention. Based on these records we were able to verify the strength and potential of the Laban\' theory, with regard mainly to the clarification of content and teaching strategies developed in the actions with different types and styles of corporal practices. Thus, we conclude that the Laban\' theory acted rightly in the constitution and in the improvement of the work of the professionals who participated in this study, what makes us point to the possibility of investing in the diffusion of this benchmark in public services of healt
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
