DINÂMICAS AGROINDUSTRIAIS:: UMA ANÁLISE BIBLIOMÉTRICA DA TEORIA ATOR-REDE E SISTEMAS SOCIOTÉCNICOS
Get PDFO presente artigo apresenta uma investigação bibliométrica detalhada sobre a aplicação da Teoria Ator-Rede (TAR) e do Sistema Sociotécnico no contexto das agroindústrias. Através de uma metodologia quantitativa e bibliométrica, o estudo explora publicações na Web of Science, revelando um crescente interesse acadêmico nessas teorias, refletindo a importância de abordagens sociotécnicas na análise das dinâmicas agroindustriais, a interdisciplinaridade e a relevância global da TAR e dos Sistemas Sociotécnicos em diversas áreas. A pesquisa evidencia um crescente interesse acadêmico nessas, refletindo a importância de perspectivas sociotécnicas na análise das dinâmicas agroindustriais. A TAR propõe uma visão integrada de humanos, máquinas, políticas e animais em redes dinâmicas, e o Sistema Sociotécnico fornece uma estrutura conceitual para compreender a estabilidade e transformação dos sistemas tecnológicos. Ambas as teorias são fundamentais para analisar como inovações tecnológicas envolvem a adaptação mútua de componentes heterogêneos. A pesquisa apresenta uma lacuna significativa na literatura específica sobre sua aplicação nas agroindústrias. A análise bibliométrica revelou a distribuição geográfica das publicações, demonstrando um interesse global nas teorias. A falta de estudos específicos aplicando essas teorias ao contexto das agroindústrias aponta para a necessidade de investigações futuras que explorem este território, visando elucidar as dinâmicas envolvidas no setor agroindustrial. As conclusões apontam para essa necessidade, visando contribuir para uma compreensão mais profunda dessas dinâmicas. O artigo encoraja a integração de perspectivas sociotécnicas no desenvolvimento rural sustentável e destaca a importância de abordagens interdisciplinares para avançar no entendimento e na prática das agroindústrias.

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
A PRODUÇÃO PARA AUTOCONSUMO NA AGRICULTURA FAMILIAR: UMA QUESTÃO DE LIBERDADE ALIMENTAR
Get PDFThe production of self-consumption is a classic practice of social reproduction of family agriculture, and this type of production plays important roles in the contemporary rural environment, despite the profound changes that have occurred over the years. In Brazil the production of self-consumption is present in most agricultural establishments, being more prevalent in family farms. The production of food for self-consumption is prevalent in family agriculture, and the intensity, form and motives by which it is practiced is peculiar to each place and group of individuals, but it is possible to identify that both segments have shared ideas, where we can Highlight central ideas regarding. Therefore, it is understood that the production for self-consumption in family agriculture has different meanings (biological, environmental, political, social, cultural, economic and ethical), that is, it is a question of food freedom. Keywords: Self-consumption. Family farming. Freedom FoodA produção de autoconsumo é uma prática clássica de reprodução social da agricultura familiar, sendo que este tipo de produção desempenha funções importantes no meio rural contemporânea, apesar das profundas transformações ocorridas com o passar dos anos. No Brasil a produção de autoconsumo está presente na maioria dos estabelecimentos agropecuários, sendo mais prevalente em propriedades familiares. A produção de alimentos para autoconsumo é prevalente na agricultura familiar, sendo que a intensidade, a forma e os motivos pela qual é praticada é peculiar de cada local e grupo de indivíduos, contudo é possível identificar que ambos os segmentos possuem ideias compartilhadas. Portanto, entende-se que a produção para autoconsumo na agricultura familiar possui diversos significados (biológico; ambiental; político; social; cultural; econômico e ético), ou seja, trata-se de uma questão de liberdade alimentar.

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
