Inteligência coletiva e gestão do conhecimento: Uma relação de dependência ou mútuo reforço?
O artigo aborda, por meio de uma revisão sistemática de literatura, o relacionamento existente entre gestão do conhecimento e inteligência coletiva, conforme percebido pelos pesquisadores acadêmicos. Partiu-se de uma primeira triagem de 606 artigos científicos, até se chegar, depois da aplicação de diversos critérios de filtragem, a 24 estudos que tratavam dos dois constructos, simultaneamente, os quais foram profundamente analisados em seu inter-relacionamento. Três abordagens predominantes foram identificadas na forma como os autores tratam a relação de eventual dependência entre os constructos. A abordagem adotada pela maioria dos autores dos artigos analisados ressalta o potencial da inteligência coletiva como ferramenta para melhorar a gestão do conhecimento. Por outro lado, há autores que apresentam a gestão do conhecimento como um meio de se alavancar a inteligência coletiva. E, finalmente, há aqueles que discutem cenários de coexistência entre os dois constructos, com a inteligência coletiva e a gestão do conhecimento ocorrendo de forma independente, mas suportando-se mutuamente
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
REFLETINDO SOBRE A ÁREA DE ADI: O QUE PENSAM OS PESQUISADORES DA ÁREA?
This paper presents the results of a descriptive qualitative study, based on data gathered from a previous quantitative study, which had raised several issues about the scientific development of the Information Management area in Brazil after the bibliometric analysis of all papers selected for presentation at the Enanpad conference during the last 10 years. Standout researchers in the field were invited to give their interpretations to the results of the bibliometric study and 39 agreed to do it. An attempt was made here to capture the critical look of these colleagues about authorship, the types of references used in the papers, the main events whose proceedings were referred by the authors of Enanpad papers, the main journals used in their research, the most frequently quoted foreign authors and the frequency of citation of authors in references. Capes role in consolidating research tracks and the level of maturity of the area were also assessed by the participants. In general, the participants have an optimistic perception of the way Information Management is developing in the Brazilian academia. They found encouraging explanations for several of the bibliometric study's findings about which they were invited to provide their opinion, which could have been considered negative by more pessimistic observers.El presente trabajo es resultado de una investigación cualitativa, de esencia descriptiva, basada en una investigación cuantitativa anterior, que había levantado una serie de cuestiones sobre la producción científica en Administración de la Información (ADI) en Brasil, a partir del análisis bibliométrico de artículos seleccionados para presentación en el Enanpad en los últimos 10 años. Tais cuestiones fueron expuestas a los 55 investigadores con mayor índice de producción en el área, en el periodo de 1997 a 2006, de los cuales 39 acordaron suministrar su interpretación de los resultados de aquel estudio bibliométrico. Se buscó sintetizar la mirada crítica de esos colegas sobre la cuestión de la autoría de los trabajos, los tipos de obras incluidos en las citaciones de los artículos, los principales eventos en cuyos anales los autores buscan soporte para sus investigaciones, los periódicos más utilizados, la edad de las referencias empleadas, los autores extranjeros más citados y la frecuencia de citación de autores de referencias. El papel desempeñado por la CAPES, la consolidación de líneas de pesquisa y el nivel de madurez del área también fueron destacados por los investigadores en ADI. Por regla general, los investigadores consultados demostraron poseer una visión optimista sobre el desarrollo de ese área de estudios en Administración en Brasil, encontrando explicaciones alentadoras para muchos de los hallazgos de la investigación bibliométrica sobre la que fueron llevados a opinar, los cuales podrían ser considerados negativos en un análisis menos profunda y reflexiva.O presente trabalho é resultado de uma pesquisa qualitativa, de cunho descritivo, baseada em uma pesquisa quantitativa anterior, que levantara uma série de questões sobre a produção científica em Administração da Informação (ADI) no Brasil, a partir da análise bibliométrica de artigos selecionados para apresentação no Enanpad nos últimos 10 anos.

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
