    La esterilización quirúrgica voluntaria es el método anticonceptivo más utilizado en el mundo, particularmente en Latinoamérica y el Caribe, con importantes implicaciones individuales y sociales por ser un método definitivo y que depende por completo de la biomedicina institucionalizada. La investigación aborda desde la antropología en salud, con un enfoque crítico y feminista, el proceso de decisión y de acceso, así como las prácticas y representaciones de usuarias y personal de salud en torno a este tema, identificando formas de estigma en la atención a la esterilización quirúrgica voluntaria (EQV). El estudio se desarrolló en Valparaíso, Chile, durante los años 2015 y 2017, corresponde a un diseño cualitativo que se valió de técnicas mixtas: revisión de expedientes clínicos de usuarias, entrevistas a usuarias y personal de salud, observación de actividades y espacios clínicos en dos establecimientos de salud pública. Se concluye que el descenso de la eqv en Chile obedece a prácticas de salud que reproducen las construcciones de género, en torno a lo cual se organiza el sistema de salud, las rutas de atención y los recursos quirúrgicos, desalentando así la demanda; mientras que las mujeres, por su parte, ven en este método una alternativa para mejorar su salud, sus condiciones de vida y del grupo familiar, y una forma de alcanzar mayor autonomía. Esta investigación pretende ser un aporte a la salud pública al hacer visible un problema que afecta sobre todo a las mujeres pobres y marginadas en el ejercicio de sus derechos sexuales y reproductivos.Nowadays, voluntary surgical sterilization is the most widespread contraceptive method in the world, particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean with important individual and social implications because it is definitive and it totally depends on institutionalized biomedicine. From health anthropology with a critical and feminist perspective, this research addresses the decision-making process, access to the procedure, and the practices and representations of patients and health staff regarding the subject, identifying stigmas around voluntary surgical sterilization. The study was developed in Valparaíso, Chile, from 2015 to 2017, with a qualitative design that makes use of mixed techniques: review of patients’ medical records, interviews with patients and medical staff, observation of activities and medical spots in two public health facilities. The conclusion is that the decrease of voluntary surgical sterilization in Chile arises from health practices that reproduce gender constructions that organize the health system, the means of attention and surgical resources, in this way discouraging demand; whereas women look at this procedure as an alternative to improve their health, their own living conditions, and their family living conditions as a way to achieve autonomy. The aim of this research is to contribute to public health by shedding light on a problem that affects women, especially poor and marginalized women exercising their sexual and reproductive rights

    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
