Sorg i två bilderböcker – En komparativ studie
No full textI denna uppsats analyseras två bilderböcker i syfte att undersöka hur karaktärernas sorg framställs och hanteras. Detta görs genom komparativ analys. Den ena bilderboken, Stig, handlar om sorgen efter en avliden familjemedlem. Den är skriven av Annica Hedin och illustrerad av Per Gustavsson. Ska det vara såhär??! är författad av Peter Schössow. Den berättar om saknaden efter ett husdjur. I analysen framkommer vissa skillnader i sättet man valt att framställa sorg i bild och text samtidigt som sorgereaktionerna hos bilderbokens karaktärer är realistiska gentemot verkligheten. Resultatet knyts i diskussionen samman med didaktiska möjligheter för min kommande yrkesroll
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
Å finne ord – å finne gråten. Betydningen av bruk av morsmål i arbeid med krise og sorg i samiske områder
Get PDFSamandrag på lulesamisk, sørsamisk, nordsamisk og engelsk.Denne studien omhandler ulike aspekt ved problemstillinga, betydningen av bruk av morsmål i arbeid med krise og sorg i samiske områder. Det er valgt ein kvalitativ metode med ein hermeneutisk-fenomenologisk tilnærming. Intervjumaterialet er basert på seks informanter frå kommunale kriseteam i forvaltningsområdet for samisk språk. Funna blir drøfta i lys av teori frå relevante fagområde
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
Barn i sorg i barnehagen
Get PDFDenne masteroppgaven i pedagogikk har barn i sorg i barnehagen etter å ha mistet foreldre som tema. Målet har vært å se helhetlig på fenomenet gjennom fire forskningsspørsmål:
• Hvordan møter barnehagen barn som pårørende etter å ha mistet foreldre?
• Hvilke rammer har barnehagen for å følge opp disse barna, og hvilken kunnskap har barnehagelærerne om tematikken?
• Hvordan organiserer barnehagelærerne arbeidet med barn i sorg, og foreldresamarbeidet?
• Hvordan burde barnehagen jobbe med barn i sorg?
For å få innblikk i hva som er praksisen i barnehagene, og hva barnehagelærerne selv mener om temaet, har jeg utført kvalitative intervjuer med fire barnehagelærere om deres erfaringer og refleksjoner.
Oppgaven har en hermeneutisk og fenomenologisk forankring ved at den er opptatt av barnehagelærernes perspektiver og opplevelse av egen hverdag, praksis og eget rammeverk. Fenomenet "barn i sorg" sees i en nordisk barnehagekontekst og barnehagens samfunnsmandat er lagt til grunn i drøftingen.
Funnene indikerer at barnehagelærerne er opptatt av hva som er det beste for barnet, men at kunnskap om temaet mangler i sektoren, og at man ofte lener seg på enkeltindividers kompetanse. Videre ser det ut som om det er behov for at flere planer og støttemateriell blir gjort tilgjengelig i barnehagene.This master's thesis in pedagogy has as its central theme the early childhood bereavement in kindergarten after the loss of a parent. The aim has been to observe the phenomenon holistically through four research questions:
• How does the kindergarten meet children in mourning after losing parents?
• What framework does the kindergarten have for following up these children, and what knowledge
do the kindergarten teachers have about the subject?
• How do the kindergarten teachers organize the work with early childhood bereavement, and the
parent cooperation?
• How should the kindergarten work with early childhood bereavement?
To gain insight into current practice in kindergartens, and what the kindergarten teachers themselves think about the topic, I have conducted qualitative interviews with four kindergarten teachers about their experiences and reflections.
The assignment has a hermeneutic and phenomenological grounding in that it is concerned with the kindergarten teachers' perspectives and experience of their own everyday life, practice, and framework. I analyze the phenomenon of "children in grief" in a Nordic kindergarten context and the kindergartens social mandate is the basis of the discussion.
The findings indicate that the kindergarten teachers are concerned with what is best for the child, but that knowledge about the topic is lacking in the sector, and that they often rely on the expertise of select individuals. Furthermore, there appears to be a need for additional plans and support materials to be made available in the kindergartens
