No full textIn Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Tourism"Accessibility for persons with disabilities is one of the major agenda in tourism industry. The researchers chose this study to know if the person with disabilities can easily use the facilities and systems in any establishments, especially the resorts here in Davao City, to know if the people with disabilities are satisfied and comfortable by the facilities and services in inland resorts. There are two (2) respondents taken for the study. Each of them was given the chance to answer the questions that prepared for both resort. The study was to determine the main reason behind the accessible of inland resort for persons with disabilities. This is a qualitative case study. The study answered the problem for persons with disabilities in terms of: the resorts are accessible in their facilities that they provided for persons with disabilities, how they manage the hotels mechanism/systems for the tourist with disability. Majority of the respondents said that they are accessible of their services and facilities for persons with disabilities because they have their own things provided for persons with disabilities, only for them to be comfortable and easy access to their facilities except for the elevator. Both resorts don’t have elevators because all of their rooms and facilities are on the ground floor. Both resorts are accessible especially services because the resorts give the needs and wants of person with disabilities. All of the resorts staff and employees are required to attend seminar every year for the customer orientation and it is also good to have a knowledge on how to treat person with disabilities well. The recommendations of this study were the government administration staff must check the facilities of the resorts for the guidelines act of the accessibility law in every establishment, the owner of the resort must improve their bus into paratransit bus for persons with disabilities and senior citizens. Every resort must supply a number of wheelchairs for the wheelchair users, the persons with disabilities and senior citizens must become wisely to choose the resort that can provide their needs and wants, and lastly, for the future researchers may can continue the study but in the other establishments. Especially the government facilities.

No full textIn Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Secondary Education Major in EnglishBody language is an important part of contact and relationships with one another in modern times. It is therefore very important to management or leadership and to all areas of work and business where contact can be seen and experienced between individuals in the body language of people. In particular, a woman who is more sensitive than men nowadays is also important (Chapman, 2020). This study used a descriptive qualitative approach. According to Crossman (2017), qualitative research is a type of social science research that collects and works with non-numerical data and seeks to interpret meaning from these data that help us understand social life through the study of targeted populations or places. Thus, this study was conducted on 15 randomly selected men, eight men undergone in-depth interviews and seven in focused group discussion. The study was conducted online due to pandemic, the informants were randomly students studying in Tagum City. In addition, questions were asked to the informants on how they interpret women’s body language. The result suggest that some participants find women’s body language very helpful, and at the same time quite irritating. Finally, essential themes were generated namely: facial expressions, hand gestures, body movements and posture, expression of oneself, confusing, alluring and deceiving, better understanding, awareness of each other and certainty of the message.xi, 81 page

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
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
