Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
CONSTRUÇÃO DE SABERES CONCEITUAIS E INTEGRADORES SOBRE ESCRITA, TEXTO E GÊNERO POR PROFESSORES DE PORTUGUÊS EM FORMAÇÃO CONTINUADA
Full text linkPrenant en compte le grand intérêt de la Linguistique Apliquée à l’étude des conceptions que les professeurs ont
de leur objet d’enseignement et aux connaissances qui sont utilisées dans les pratiques scolaires, nous avons
pour but dans ce travail de vérifier comment les professeurs en formation continue (un cours de spécialisation)
utilisent, en textes académiques comme par exemple des mémoires, des connaissances d’ordre conceptuel sur
écriture, texte et genre textuel. Les résultats signalent un rapprochement entre les connaissances des concepts
acquis pendant le Cours de Spécialisation et la connaissnce construite par les professeurs sur leur objet d’analyse.
À notre avis, cet effet est positif puisqu’il a été créé à partir de situations de réflexion sur le rapport théoricopratique
auxquelles les professeurs ont participé pendant les activités académiques proposées par le Cours
Construção dos conceitos de texto e de coesão textual : da linguistica a sala de aula
No full textOrientador : Ines SignoriniTese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Estudos da LinguagemResumo: O objetivo geral deste trabalho é estudar o processo de construção dos conceitos de texto e de coesão textual num percurso que se inicia na Lingüística Textual (LT), passa por obras de divulgação da LT e vai até a sala de aula. Especificamente, observamos como estagiários e professores egressos de um curso de Letras de uma universidade pública do interior do Estado da Paraíba estavam em suas aulas construindo esses conceitos. Para isso, analisamos duas obras de divulgação lidas pelos informantes durante seus cursos de formação e doze horas/aula de análise lingüística de estagiários do curso de Letras e professoras das redes pública e privada da cidade de Campina Grande-PB. Entendemos que em cada uma das instâncias (a LT, a divulgação e a sala de aula) ocorre produção de saberes sobre língua/liguagem, atendendo a interesses e objetivos específicos. Quanto à sala de aula, entendemos tratar-se de uma situação de produção de saber em que ocorre uma transposição didática de conhecimentos advindos dessas instâncias, mas também, da gramática tradicional,
dos manuais didáticos e da tradição escolar. Observamos que os estagiários e as professoras mobilizam, em suas aulas, diferentes conhecimentos através, sobretudo, dos recursos de exemplificação e de referência a nomenclaturas e noções teóricas. Essa mobilização gera dois efeitos de transposição didática: a solidarização e a sobreposição. Nas aulas dos estagiários, verificamos uma incidência maior de sobreposições, enquanto nas aulas das professoras, uma
incidência maior de solidarizações. Isso porque o processo de contrução de conceitos pelos estagiários se apresenta como mais homogêneo em relação aos conhecimentos mobilizados, enquanto nas aulas das professoras se apresenta como mais heterogêneoRésumé: Le but général de ce travaiI est d' étudier Ie processus de construction des concepts de texte et de cohésion textuelle dans un parcours s'initiant dans Ia Linguistique Textuelle (LT), qui passe par des oeuvres vuIgarition de Ia LT et qui se termine dans Ia salle de cours. Spécifiquement nous remarquons comment des stagiaires et des professeurs venus d'un Cours de Lettres d'une Université Publique d'une ville de Province de l'État du Paraíba construisaient ces concepts dans Ieurs cours de Langue Portugaise. Pour Cela, nous analysons deux oeuvres de vuIgarisation Iues par les professeurs et stagiaires pendant leurs cours de formation et douze heures de cours d'analyse linguistique données par des stagiaires du Cours
de Lettres et professeurs des écoles publiques et privées de Ia ville de Campina Grande-Pb. Nous comprenons que dans chacune des situations envisagées (Ia LT, Ia vulgarisation et Ia salle de cours), il y a Ia production de connaissances sur Ia langue/langage, en envisageant des intérêts et des buts spécifiques. Par rapport à Ia salle de Cours nous comprenons qu'il s'agit d'une situation de production de connaissances dans laquelle survient une transposition didactique de connaissances survenues de ces situations-Ià et également de Ia Grammaire Traditionnelle, des manuels et de Ia tradition scolaire. Nous avons remarqué que les stagiaires et Ies professeurs utilisent dans leurs cours, des connaissances diverses à travers surtout
l' emploi de I'exemplification, de Ia référence à des nomenclatures et les notions théoriques. Cette mobilisation produit, alors, deux effets des transpositions didactique : Ia solidarisation et Ia surposition. Pendant Ies cours des stagiaires, nous avons vérifié une incidence majeure de surpositions, alors que dans Ies cours des professeurs une incidence majeure de
solidarisations. Cela, parce que Ie processus de construction de concepts par les stagiaires se présente plus homogene par rapport aux connaissances mobilisées, tandis que dans Ies cours des professeurs se présente plus hétérogeneDoutoradoEnsino-Aprendizagem de Lingua MaternaDoutor em Linguística Aplicad
EXPLICITAÇÃO/IMPLICITAÇÃO DE INFORMAÇÕES TEÓRICAS PELO PROFESSOR: O CASO DE UMA AULA DE LÍNGUA PORTUGUESA
Full text linkThe objective of the present paper is to describe the linguistic mechanisms utilized by a teacher for making theoretical information about Portuguese explicit in a language class or leaving it implicit. The analysis is based on studies of the production of contexts in speech and in writing. The mechanisms utilized by this teacher include reference to isolated theoretical terms, question sequences, and examples
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
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
