Escala de competências socioemocionais para estudantes universitários: Produção de normas e sua relação com bem-estar subjetivo
Full text linkAs competências socioemocionais têm chamado a atenção de pesquisadores e programas de treinamento de habilidades socioemocionais têm sido desenvolvidos em muitos países. Este estudo teve como objetivo geral produzir normas para a escala de competências socioemocionais de estudantes universitários e analisar seu poder preditivo sobre o bem-estar subjetivo. A coleta foi realizada com uma amostra total de 1.020 estudantes de diversos cursos de graduação, de duas instituições de ensino particular do Distrito Federal. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados dois instrumentos. O primeiro foi a escala de competências socioemocionais para estudantes universitários, de Souza, Faiad e Rueda (2021), que realiza a investigação de seis fatores. O segundo instrumento, destinado a mensuração do bem-estar subjetivo, foi composto pela escala de afetos positivos e negativos, de Zanon e Hutz (2014) e a escala de satisfação com a vida, de Zanon, Bardagi, Layous e Hutz (2013). Para análise dos dados foram realizados cálculos de correlações de Pearson e análises de modelos de regressão linear múltipla. Quanto aos resultados, normas para fins de diagnóstico foram produzidas para a população geral. Os resultados mostraram também que a maioria dos fatores de competências socioemocionais para estudantes universitários se correlacionaram significativamente com bem-estar subjetivo e foram capazes de predizer o bem-estar subjetivo. Concluiu-se que a escala de competência socioemocionais de estudantes universitários pode ser utilizada para fins de diagnóstico, principalmente por apresentar um estudo normativo
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
Construction, validity evidence and standardization of a socioemotional skills scale for university students
Full text linkTese (doutorado) — Universidade de Brasília, Instituto de Psicologia, Programa de Pós-graduação em Psicologia Social, do Trabalho e das Organizações, 2022.As competências socioemocionais têm despertado a atenção de pesquisadores pela sua
relevância teórica e sua aplicabilidade. O objetivo principal desta pesquisa foi a construção, a
busca de evidências de validade e a produção de normas para uma escala de competências
socioemocionais. A tese está organizada em quatro estudos. O Estudo 1 foi dedicado à
revisão integrativa de literatura sobre instrumentos psicométricos de competências
socioemocionais. Foram encontrados 17 instrumentos psicométricos publicados entre os anos
de 2004 e 2019, a partir dos quais foi possível perceber a inexistência de instrumentos
adequados para a população de universitários, o que justificou a construção de uma nova
medida. O Estudo 2 teve como objetivo a proposição de um modelo fatorial específico para o
contexto universitário, bem como a construção de uma medida de competências
socioemocionais e a realização de análise fatorial exploratória do instrumento. O estudo foi
realizado com uma amostra de 365 estudantes. Os resultados apontaram para uma escala com
boas propriedades psicométricas e coerente com o modelo teórico proposto. O Estudo 3 teve
o objetivo de confirmar a estrutura fatorial da escala e produzir normas a partir de uma
amostra de 1.020 estudantes universitários. Os resultados confirmaram a estrutura do
instrumento, mas com a exlusão de quatro itens. Normas gerais, por idade e por sexo, foram
construídas para fins de análises por grupos. O Estudo 4 buscou evidências de validade
externa da versão final do instrumento. Foram encontradas evidências de validade
convergente com outra medida de competências socioemocionais e evidências de validade
critério com medidas de bem-estar subjetivo e de burnout. Conclui-se que o instrumento
construído apresenta boas propriedades psicométricas.Socio-emotional competences have attracted the attention of researchers due to their
theoretical relevance and applicability. The main objective of this research was the
construction, search for evidence of validity and production of norms for a scale of socioemotional competences. The thesis is organized into four studies. Study 1 was dedicated to an
integrative literature review on psychometric instruments of socio-emotional skills. We found
17 psychometric instruments published between 2004 and 2019, from which it was possible
to perceive the lack of adequate instruments for the university population, which justified the
construction of a new measure. Study 2 aimed to propose a specific factor model for the
university context, as well as the construction of a measure of socio-emotional skills and the
carrying out of an exploratory factor analysis of the instrument. The study was carried out
with a sample of 365 students. The results pointed to a scale with good psychometric
properties and consistent with the proposed theoretical model. Study 3 aimed to confirm the
factor structure of the scale and produce norms from a sample of 1,020 university students.
The results confirmed the instrument's structure, but with the exclusion of four items. General
norms, by age and by sex, were constructed for the purposes of group analyses. Study 4
sought evidence of external validity of the final version of the instrument. Evidence of
convergent validity was found with another measure of socio-emotional competence and
evidence of criterion validity with measures of subjective well-being and burnout. It is
concluded that the instrument constructed has good psychometric properties.Instituto de Psicologia (IP)Departamento de Psicologia Social e do Trabalho (IP PST)Programa de Pós-Graduação em Psicologia Social, do Trabalho e das Organizaçõe
