    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Scyliorhinus ugoi Soares, Gomes & Gadig, 2015 (Figs. 10C, 11) Common names: cação-gato negrinho (Brazil), dark freckled catshark (United States). Scyliohinus sp.: Gomes et al., 2010: 85–86, fig. 110 (catalogue, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). Scyliorhinus hesperius: Gadig & Gomes, 2003: 22 (catalogue, Brazil). Scyliorhinus ugoi Soares, Gomes & Gadig, 2015: 348 –361, figs. 1-9 (original description, type locality: Bahia, Brazil); Weigmann, 2016: 44 (listed); Rincón et al., 2017: 94 –95, fig. 4j (catalogue, Brazil). Holotype. MNRJ 42619, female, 496 mm TL (southern Bahia, Brazil). Paratypes. MZUSP 110448, male, 465 mm TL (Alagoas, northeastern Brazil, 9°S 34°50’W); MZUSP 110449, male, 445 mm TL (Rio Grande do Norte, northeastern Brazil, 6°14’S 34°51’W); UERJ 1725, male, 530 mm TL (somewhere between southern Bahia and northern Rio de Janeiro; neurocranium, jaws and claspers); UERJ 2179, male, 415 mm TL (southern Bahia, Brazil) . Additional material examined. 21 specimens (see Appendix). Diagnosis. Scyliorhinus ugoi differs from all congeners by presenting a color pattern composed of saddles with antero- and posteromedial projections (vs. projections absent in other species); dark spots spiracle-sized to greater than the spiracles (vs. dark spots absent in S. capensis, S. comoroensis, S. hesperius, S. meadi, S. torazame, and S. torrei; reticulate pattern in S. retifer; spots predominantly smaller in S. boa and S. cabofriensis), spots restricted to saddles and not bordering them (vs. spots over entire body in S. cabofriensis; bordering saddles in S. boa); adult males at least 445 mm TL and adult females at least 500 mm TL (vs. adult sizes smaller than 420 mm TL in S. boa, S. cabofriensis, S. haeckelii, S. torazame, and S. torrei; sizes greater than 500 mm TL in S. capensis, S. cervigoni, S. meadi, and S. stellaris). The following combination of characters, although less conspicuous, also helps distinguish this species: lunate spots and double points absent (vs. present in S. cabofriensis and S. haeckelii); anterior nasal flaps not reaching the upper lip (vs. flaps reaching the lip, sometimes covering it in S. canicula, S. cervigoni, S. comoroensis, S. duhamelii, S. garmani, and S. stellaris); mesonarial ridge not exceeding the posterior border of anterior nasal flaps (vs. exceeding it in S. stellaris); pelvic apron extending to 2/3 the length of pelvic inner margins (vs. extending through almost entire length of pelvic margins in S. canicula, S. capensis, S. duhamelii, S. torazame, and S. torrei); clasper with cover rhipidion covered by dermal denticles (vs. absent in S. boa, S. cervigoni, S. hesperius, and S. retifer); terminal dermal cover smooth (vs. rough in S. canicula and S. capensis); terminal 3 cartilage absent (vs. present in S. boa, S. canicula, S. capensis, S. retifer, and S. torazame); dorsal terminal 2 cartilage reduced and subtriangular (vs. elongated in S. boa, S. canicula, S. comoroensis, S. duhamelii, S. retifer, S. stellaris, S. torazame, and S. torrei); counts of monospondylous vertebrae 38–39 (vs. 46 in S. capensis; 40–45 in S. cervigoni; 48 in S. garmani; 46–48 in S. meadi; 43–47 in S. stellaris; 30–35 in S. torrei). Etymology. The specific name ‘ugoi’ was dedicated to Ugo de Luna Gomes, son of the elasmobranch researcher Ulisses Leite Gomes. Remarks. Soares et al. (2015) described the clasper of S. ugoi with an accessory dorsal marginal cartilage (RD2), which would support the rhipidion (p. 352, 353, 356, figs. 5, 6). In this study, this structure is reidentified as a dorsal terminal 2 cartilage (Fig. 8C), following Jungersen (1899) and Compagno (1988a). Some specimens captured in Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil (UERJ 2178, UFPB 5294 and other uncatalogued specimens), present a color pattern distinct with grayish background color, dark spots smaller than the spiracles throughout the body and light spots less frequent inside the saddles. These specimens are tentatively classified as S. ugoi and we highlight the need to obtain more specimens for a more detailed study of these populations. Specimens USNM 221611 and USNM 221652, USNM 221561 and, UF 77857, previously identified as Scyliorhinus boa, S. hesperius and S. retifer, respectively, present a color pattern similar to S. ugoi with antero- and posteromedial projections in the saddles, light and dark spots similar in size or smaller than the spiracle, scattered all over the body. These specimens are tentatively identified here as S. ugoi, which in turn extends the geographic range of this species from northern Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to Barbados, Caribbean Sea (Fig. 9). No data on the conservation status of this species was found.Published as part of Soares, Karla D.

    Resumo: Em inícios do século XIX foi publicada, postumamente, a Grammatica Philosophica da Lingua Portugueza (1822) da autoria de Jerónimo Soares Barbosa, que conheceu, ao longo deste século, sete edições (1822, 1830, 1862, 1866, 1871, 1875, 1881). Dada a importância desta obra, impressa sob a chancela da Academia Real das Ciências, vários foram os autores que a ela se referiram, seja para a adotar como modelo, seja para a criticar. Francisco Solano Constâncio, autor da Grammatica analytica da lingua portugueza, é um desses exemplos. Ao longo desta gramática, referencia frequentemente esta obra de Soares Barbosa, apresentando, inclusive, na parte quinta, dedicada ao estudo da ortografia, um conjunto de considerações críticas acerca da doutrina ortográfica barboseana. No presente artigo, pretende-se analisar estas Observações criticas sobre as regras dadas pelo Snr Jeronymo Soares Barboza, dando a conhecer a opinião de Francisco Solano Constâncio acerca de algumas propostas ortográficas postuladas por Jerónimo Soares Barbosa.Palavras-chave: Grammatica Philosophica da Lingua Portugueza; Jerónimo Soares Barboza; Grammatica analytica da lingua portugueza; Francisco Solano Constâncio; ortografia.Abstract: In the early 19th century, the Grammatica philosophica da Lingua Portugueza written by Jerónimo Soares Barbosa was published posthumously, in 1822. It had throughout this century seven editions (1822, 1830, 1862, 1866, 1871, 1875, 1881). Given the importance of this work, printed under the auspices of the Royal Academy of Sciences, several authors referred to it whether to adopt it as a model or to criticize it. Francisco Solano Constâncio, the author of the Grammatica analytica da lingua portugueza, is one of these examples. Throughout his grammar, he often refers to this work of Soares Barbosa, and in its fifth part, dedicated to the study of orthography, he presents a set of critical considerations about the Soares Barboza’s orthographic doctrine. In this paper, it is our purpose to analyze these Observações criticas sobre as regras dadas pelo Snr Jeronymo Soares Barboza (Critical remarks about the [grammar] rules published by Jeronymo Soares Barbosa), in order to present Francisco Solano Constâncio’s views on some orthographic proposals postulated by the author Jeronymo Soares Barbosa.Keywords: Grammatica Philosophica da Lingua Portugueza; Jerónimo Soares Barbosa; Grammatica Analytica da Lingua Portugueza; Francisco Solano Constâncio; Orthography

    "Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"

    No full text
    Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    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

    Circulação e apropriação do ideário do Movimento da Matemática Moderna nas séries iniciais: as revistas pedagógicas no Brasil e em Portugal/ Borges, Rosimeire Aparecida Soares – São Paulo: [s.n.], 2011. 223.f ; il. ; 30cm Tese (Doutorado) – Universidade Bandeirante de São Paulo, Curso de Doutorado em Educação Matemática.

Borges, Rosimeire Aparecida Soares II. Circulação e apropriação do ideário do Movimento da Matemática Moderna nas séries iniciais: as revistas pedagógicas no Brasil e em Portugal.A presente tese teve por objetivo analisar a dinâmica de circulação e apropriação do Movimento da Matemática Moderna (MMM) no Ensino Primário no Brasil e em Portugal, a partir das revistas pedagógicas destinadas aos docentes desse nível de ensino. Sendo a imprensa pedagógica de grande relevância para a História da Educação, elegeram-se para análise, na presente investigação, artigos publicados nos periódicos pedagógicos do Brasil e de Portugal, no período do Movimento da Matemática Moderna (1955 a 1985). A sustentação teórica para analisar essas fontes baseou-se nas ideias de autores como Ferreira (2008), Nóvoa (1993), Carvalho (2006), Julia (2001), Viñao (2000) e Chartier (1991), o que permitiu avaliar como os diversos discursos sobre a Matemática Moderna foram edificados. Após análises e comparações, o que se pode dizer é que, no âmbito do Ensino Primário, os discursos veiculados preconizaram uma matemática fundamentada na Teoria dos Conjuntos e na Lógica Matemática, com ênfase no uso da linguagem simbólica e nos aspectos metodológicos na prescrição dos materiais concretos para esse ensino. Nesses discursos defendeu-se, categoricamente, um ensino-aprendizagem da Matemática, fundamentado na teoria psicogenética de Jean Piaget. Em ambos os países, os discursos veiculados nas revistas pedagógicas levaram aos professores primários informações sobre a ―nova matemática‖ que, juntamente com novas metodologias de ensino, foram experimentadas. Embora com características diversas entre si, os periódicos pedagógicos estudados contribuíram para a difusão de concepções e apropriações de ideias sintonizadas com os reformistas do ensino da Matemática, tendo em vista transmitir aos professores leitores os saberes necessários para a formação das crianças. As várias possibilidades apontadas pelos professores autores dos artigos publicados nas revistas pedagógicas do Brasil e de Portugal revelam suas apropriações do MMM, porém, os indícios e direcionamentos encontrados podem levar à realização de outras investigações que apresentem características de como a Matemática Moderna chegou às práticas pedagógicas em sala de aula nos dois países
