TRABALHADORAS/ES DA SAÚDE E O CONTROLE SOCIAL: DINÂMICAS DO SEGMENTO EM CONSELHOS MUNICIPAIS
Get PDFCollective control of citizens over the State is a strategy for democratization and mediation between state entities and civil society, mobilizing spaces for representation, negotiation, and dialogue. Its function is to formulate strategies to control and evaluate health policies and the system\u27s actions in the realization of the right to health. To this end, the general objective was defined to investigate the functionality of social control as an effective mechanism for popular participation in the reality of the municipal councils of the 9th Health Region of Paraná, through research with representatives of health workers. This is a qualitative case study, whose data were collected after approval by the Research Ethics Committee of the State University of Western Paraná, in the second half of 2022 and the first half of 2023, using a semi-structured questionnaire with objective and open-ended questions as a data source. The results achieved were able to show that social control, in the segment\u27s view, still finds it difficult to be an effective mechanism for popular participation in the management of the brazilian public health system.El control colectivo de la ciudadanía ante el Estado es una estrategia de democratización e intermediación entre entidades estatales y la sociedad civil, movilizando espacios de representación, negociación y diálogo.

Se trata de un estudio de caso cualitativo, cuyos datos fueron recolectados después de la aprobación por el Comité de Ética en Investigación de la Universidad Estatal del Oeste de Paraná, en el segundo semestre de 2022 y el primer semestre de 2023, utilizando como fuente de datos un cuestionario semiestructurado con Preguntas objetivas y abiertas. Los resultados alcanzados demostraron que el control social, para el segmento, todavía tiene dificultades para ser un mecanismo eficaz de participación popular en la gestión del sistema brasileño de salud pública.O controle coletivo dos cidadãos e das cidadãs diante do Estado é uma estratégia de democratização e intermediação entre as entidades estatais e a sociedade civil, mobilizando espaços de representação, negociação e interlocução. Sua função é, de formular estratégias para controlar e avaliar as políticas de saúde e as ações do sistema na efetivação do direito à saúde. Para tanto, foi definido como objetivo geral investigar a funcionalidade do controle social como efetivo mecanismo de participação popular na realidade dos conselhos municipais da 9ª Regional de Saúde do Paraná, através da investigação com representantes de trabalhadoras/es da saúde. Trata-se de um estudo de caso, de tipo qualitativo, cujos dados foram coletados após aprovação do Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa da Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná, no segundo semestre de 2022 e primeiro semestre de 2023, utilizando como fonte de dados um questionário semiestruturado com perguntas objetivas e abertas. Os resultados alcançados puderam evidenciar que o controle social, na visão do segmento, ainda encontra dificuldades em ser um mecanismo eficaz de participação popular na gestão do SUS
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
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

Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902
No full textIn Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
