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
Letramento literário: o desenvolvimento de projetos de ensino por meio de aldravias
Get PDFEsta pesquisa está vinculada à linha III - Linguagem, Ensino, Aprendizagem e Tecnologia e teve como objetivo refletir sobre a formação do leitor literário na educação básica por meio de projetos de ensino. Em sua essência, ela visou à reflexão sobre a aplicação de um projeto de leitura e produção de aldravias intitulado Aldravilhando, implementado em uma escola da rede pública municipal de ensino de Santa Bárbara-MG. Aldravias são poemas sintéticos, de apenas seis versos univocabulares. Elas dispensam as rimas, as pontuações gráficas e as métricas, fazem uso de metonímias, bem como mantêm foco no discurso e na construção de significados por parte do leitor. A pergunta-chave que norteou a pesquisa foi: como um projeto de ensino com foco na leitura e na produção de aldravias pode contribuir para a formação do leitor literário? A hipótese subjacente à pesquisa é que a mediação pedagógica por meio das aldravias pode contribuir para a formação do leitor literário. Foi elaborado um quadro de referências teórico-metodológicas que nos permitiu compreender a importância da literatura e do letramento literário para a formação do sujeito leitor. Para a concretização deste estudo, primeiramente, foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica, com vistas a traçar um panorama sobre pesquisas realizadas no âmbito de letramento literário e de estudos sobre aldravias. Em seguida, buscou-se refletir sobre essas temáticas à luz de autores como Candido (1995), Barthes (1995, 1996, 2003), Compagnon (2009), Soares (2002, 2004, 2006, 2009), Cosson (2011, 2018, 2019), Leal (2013) e Donadon-Leal (2001, 2002, 2003, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2018). A metodologia de pesquisa utilizada é de caráter qualitativo, baseada na análise das etapas e sequências didáticas desenvolvidas durante um projeto de leitura, além dos recursos didático-pedagógicos, resultados e publicações alcançados com o projeto. Pesquisas com essa abordagem se justificam pois pouco se sabe ainda sobre o uso de aldravias no ambiente de formação de leitores. Além disso, ganha relevo o desenvolvimento do letramento literário por meio de projetos de ensino, com destaque para o protagonismo do aluno, a mediação pedagógica e a participação da comunidade escolar no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Os resultados alcançados por meio da catalogação dos dados do projeto Aldravilhando evidenciaram que houve contribuições dessa prática pedagógica tanto para o desenvolvimento do letramento literário quanto para o processo de humanização dos alunos da educação básica de uma escola pública municipal.This research is linked to line III - Language, Teaching, Learning and Technology and aimed at reflecting on the formation of the literary reader in basic education through teaching projects. In its essence, it intended to reflect on the application of a project of reading and production of aldravias entitled Aldravilhando, implemented in a public school in Santa Bárbara-MG. Aldravias are synthetic poems, with only six univocabular verses. They dispense the rhymes, graphic punctuation, and metrics, making use of metonymies and keep the focus on the discourse and on the reader’s construction of meaning. The key question that guided the research was: how can a teaching project focused on the reading and production of aldravias contribute to the formation of literary readers? The hypothesis underlying the research is that pedagogical mediation by means of the aldravias can contribute to the formation of the literary reader. We proposed the construction of a theoretical and methodological frame of reference that allowed us to understand the importance of literature and literacy for the formation of the reader. In order to carry out this study, we first of all conducted a bibliographic review, with the purpose of outlining a panorama of research carried out in the field of literacy and studies on aldravias. Then, we sought to reflect on these themes in the light of authors such as Candido (1995), Barthes (1995, 1996, 2003), Compagnon (2009), Soares (2002, 2004, 2006, 2009), Cosson (2011, 2018, 2019), Leal (2013), and Donadon-Leal (2001, 2002, 2003, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2018). The research methodology used is of a qualitative nature, based on the analysis of the stages and didactic sequences developed during a reading project, in addition to the didactic-pedagogical resources, results, and publications achieved with the project. Research with this approach is justified because little is known yet about the use of aldravias in the reader education environment. Furthermore, the development of literacy through teaching projects, with emphasis on the student's protagonism, pedagogical mediation, and the participation of the school community in the teaching and learning process, is of great importance. The results achieved through the cataloging of data from the Aldravilhando project showed that there were contributions from this pedagogical practice both for the development of literacy and for the humanization process in basic education students of a municipal public school

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
