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
Elaboración de un juego para el desarrollo de competencias emocionales en niños
Postgrau en Educació Emocional i Benestar [Semipresencial]. Institut de Ciències d'Educació i el Grup de Recerca en Orientació Psicopedagògica (GROP). Universitat de Barcelona, Curs: 2020-2021, Tutora: Maria Navarrete i Fa[spa] Este programa trabajará con el diseño e implementación de un juego para la identificación de emociones y su manejo en niños de tercer y cuarto grado de educación primaria. El enfoque en el que se basará el juego es de competencias emocionales (Bisquerra y Pérez, 2007, p. 8). Específicamente, se trabajará con aspectos de conciencia y regulación emocional (Bisquerra y Pérez, 2007). Esto último, basado en la teoría de lo cognitivo conductual, que implica abordar las relaciones entre cogniciones, emociones y conductas; para ello, partimos de la idea de que lo que hacemos es afectado por cómo pensamos y el cómo valoramos una situación determina críticamente cómo nos sentimos al respecto, siendo que los pensamientos y sentimientos influyen en las acciones (Verduyn, 2000). Así, para fines de este trabajo se considera que se desarrolló un juego digitalizado como “juego serio”, que es un tipo de producto que combina el software educativo y los video- juegos (i Moras, 2015) y que tiende a ser breve e implementado para un objetivo específico (Friedberg y Nakamura, 2020). Además, teniendo en cuenta la contingencia sanitaria producto de la pandemia asociada al Covid-19, se considera que este momento histórico es importante para reflexionar sobre la importancia de la educación emocional y el diseño de estrategias que atiendan a la población infantil
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

Llestos per enlairar-se! Programa d'Educació Emocional per a adolescents de 3r i 4t d’Educació Secundària
Postgrau en Educació Emocional i Benestar [Semipresencial]. Institut de Ciències d'Educació i el Grup de Recerca en Orientació Psicopedagògica (GROP). Universitat de Barcelona, Curs: 2018-2020, Tutora: Maria Navarrete i Fa[cat] Durant aquest últim any, he assistit a diferents Jornades relacionades amb l’aprenentatge escolar i les dificultats que alguns nens i nenes presenten durant el curs. Em va cridar l’atenció com des de fa poc temps s’està començant a donar importància a com es “senten” els nens i nenes en comptes de tenir present només el fet de que obtingui una qualificació numèrica a mesura que avança el seu desenvolupament. El sistema Educatiu ja no pot seguir el Sistema Tradicional de fa anys ja que la societat està canviant i, actualment, hi ha cada cop més consciència d’aquest fet, però el que més em va impactar és la no contemplació del Benestar Emocional dels nens/es en una etapa del seu desenvolupament tan important com l’adolescència i la consolidació de la personalitat abans de l’edat adulta. A més, em va cridar més l’atenció de com nens/es que tenien problemes de contenció emocional, falta de concentració, inseguretat, alteracions en la relació entre iguals, etc., tenien tendència a ser diagnosticats d’ Autisme o TDAH/ TDA, inclús depressió, quan el què necessitaven era aprendre a gestionar les seves emocions per superar determinades situacions imprevistes. D’aquí la importància al terme RESILIÈNCIA en el meu Treball Final de Postgrau (TFP) i de l’EDUCACIÓ EMOCIONAL per potenciar el suport que necessiten els nens/es en descobrir com es senten ells mateixos
