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
As desigualdades socioespaciais urbanas: um estudo sobre Xaxim (SC)
Get PDFApresenta uma an?lise sobre as desigualdades socioespaciais urbanas na cidade de Xaxim
levando em considera??o que uma cidade apresenta diferentes caracter?sticas relacionadas a
quest?o econ?mica (renda) e a infraestrutura dispon?vel, o que contribui para o distanciamento
entre as classes sociais e determinadas ?reas da cidade. Busca- se compreender a evolu??o
hist?rica e econ?mica, bem como o crescimento populacional dos anos 1950 a 2010. Elaborase
a espacializa??o em mapas das condi??es econ?micas e de infraestrutura, atrav?s das
informa??es dos setores censit?rios do censo demogr?fico do IBGE do ano de 2010.
Chegando a conclus?o do quanto ? desigual o espa?o urbano de uma cidade principalmente
relacionado ?s condi??es de vida onde em determinadas ?reas as pessoas tem acesso a

A implanta??o da ?rea industrial no munic?pio de Planalto Alegre ? SC
Get PDFIndustrial Districts are places organized to receive industrial projects. The insertion of this type of productive project established a system in which many countries that have come to use, one of them being Brazil. In this way, the regions that started to enter this type of strategy to attract new companies, thus leveraging their economies and the generation of jobs. Among the municipalities that entered this system this Alegre Planalto, which established in its territory the industrial area, which had its geographical location very well established in relation to the region of Chapec?, in this way, if it has a strong influence so that it can develop industries in smaller cities than Chapec?. And thus analyzing what were the systems of actions of the agents who instituted the conditions for the implantation of the industrial area in the municipality of Planalto Alegre.Os Distritos Industriais s?o locais organizados para receber projetos industriais. A inser??o deste tipo de projeto produtivo estabeleceu um sistema em que muitos pa?ses que passaram a usar, sendo um deles o Brasil. Desta forma, as regi?es que passaram a inserir este tipo de estrat?gia para atrair novas empresas, alavancando assim suas economias e a gera??o de empregos. Entre os munic?pios que adentraram a este sistema esta Planalto Alegre, que implantou em seu territ?rio a ?rea industrial, que teve sua localiza??o geogr?fica muito bem implantada em rela??o com a regi?o de Chapec?, desta forma, se tem uma forte influencia para que possa se desenvolver ind?strias em cidades menores que Chapec?.

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
A cartografia no ensino da geografia: uma an?lise de livros did?ticos da Rede Estadual de Ensino no munic?pio de Chapec?/SC
Get PDFToday, with all the problems faced by teachers as poor training, the large number of
classes, the lack of time to plan, the limited availability of materials can cause the
textbook becomes generally an important support for teaching practice, because in many
schools is the only teaching materials available. This paper analyzes the knowledge of
cartography as well as cartographic representations, especially the maps present in
textbooks of Geography, particularly in the 6th and 9th grade of elementary school and
1st year of high school. Specifically, the main concepts cartographic and its suitability
for the specific literature, as well as cartographic representations, especially the maps,
the main tool for studying cartographic. This monograph was compiled from the
following steps: contextualization of the teaching of Geography and Cartography as a
language of Geography, considerations about the textbook of Geography and
Cartography in this same survey and selection of textbooks to be analyzed, presentation
of textbooks, analysis of cartographic knowledge present, as well as the cartographic
representations especially the maps, error detection and / or gaps and evaluation of
results. Among the main results of the research, it was observed that textbooks include
the cartographic knowledge and also the cartographic representations, especially maps.
The concepts presented, mostly, are appropriate and consistent with the research
literature. Furthermore, most are complete maps containing the main features, allowing
the cartographic communication. It was also noted, finally, that the maps have different
functions on the books, now serving to complement the texts, now serving only as of the
writing disconnected illustrations.Na atualidade, com todos os problemas enfrentados pelos professores, como forma??o
prec?ria, a grande quantidade de aulas, a falta tempo para planejar, a pouca
disponibilidade de materiais pode fazer com que o livro did?tico se torne em geral um
importante apoio a pr?tica pedag?gica, pois em muitas escolas ? o ?nico material
did?tico dispon?vel. Neste trabalho s?o analisados os conhecimentos da Cartografia
como tamb?m as representa??es cartogr?ficas, principalmente os mapas presentes nos
livros did?ticos de Geografia, particularmente no 6? e 9? ano do Ensino Fundamental e
1? ano do Ensino M?dio. De maneira espec?fica, os principais conceitos cartogr?ficos e
sua adequa??o quanto ? literatura espec?fica, como tamb?m as representa??es
cartogr?ficas, especialmente os mapas, principal ferramenta para o estudo cartogr?fico.
Essa monografia foi elaborada a partir das seguintes etapas: contextualiza??o sobre o
ensino de Geografia e a Cartografia como linguagem da Geografia, considera??es sobre
o livro did?tico de Geografia e a Cartografia presente no mesmo, levantamento e
escolha dos livros did?ticos a serem analisados, apresenta??o dos livros did?ticos,
an?lise dos conhecimentos cartogr?ficos presentes, como tamb?m das representa??es
cartogr?ficas especialmente os mapas, identifica??o de erros e/ou lacunas e avalia??o
dos resultados encontrados. Dentre os principais resultados da investiga??o, observou-se
que os livros did?ticos contemplam os conhecimentos cartogr?ficos e tamb?m as
representa??es cartogr?ficas, especialmente os mapas. Os conceitos apresentados, em
sua maioria, est?o adequados e coerentes com a bibliografia espec?fica. Al?m disso, a
maioria dos mapas est?o completos contendo os seus elementos principais,
possibilitando a comunica??o cartogr?fica. Observou-se ainda, por fim, que os mapas
possuem fun??es diversas nos livros, ora servindo para complementar os textos, ora
servindo apenas como ilustra??es desconectadas da reda??o

No full textA desigualdade socioespacial ? um fen?meno geogr?fico que prescinde de
pesquisas, tendo em vista que ? um processo que est? inscrito no espa?o e em constante
transforma??o, modificando o processo de produ??o e reprodu??o do espa?o. A
urbaniza??o de Chapec?, ao ocorrer com o crescimento de seus setores agroindustrial e
comercial e com a migra??o, leva ? descentraliza??o da popula??o, com o surgimento
de novos loteamentos. Este trabalho tem por objetivo analisar as desigualdades
socioespacias no bairro Efapi, que com a descentraliza??o da popula??o obteve
demanda de servi?os comerciais tornando-se um subcentro de Chapec?, e que se
consolidou com a forma??o desses loteamentos. A metodologia utilizada baseou-se
primeiramente no referencial bibliogr?fico e a realiza??o de trabalhos de campo para
melhor compreens?o da ?rea de estudo, e para melhores compreens?es optou-se por
