    This paper proposes an analysis of the Brazilian discourse in the Organization of American States in the period corresponding to 2000 and 2016. As corpus the speeches given by the Brazil at the Ordinary General Meetings, available in official minutes. It seeks to understand the Brazilian statements and answer what can be define as regularities and ruptures. For this the international, domestic and institutional conjuncture is taken into account, as well as the discursive conformation of the OAS and the power-knowledge relations that make up this discursive. As a specific objective, an analysis of the dynamics of Brazil's relations in the OAS is sought, which directs research to a look at the performance of US foreign policy that responds what is the tension. We use the Discourse Analysis approach based on Michel Foucault's reflections, with the aim of observing the discursive action of Brazil in the multilateral body in a perspective based on linguistic materiality, making use of the theoretical keys: statement, discursive formation (FD), subject, speech, event. The issue of the Malvinas Islands is analyzed, the correlation between the patterns of democracy, security and regional integration, finally the discursivization about the "Impeachment of Dilma Rousseff" or "Coup of 2016". In the end it is pointed out that there is a regularity despite the change of management; diversification from the traditional content of PEB; the regency of the MRE in the conduct of foreign policy; and gender inequality in the composition of the delegation.Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPESEste trabalho propõe uma análise do discurso brasileiro na Organização dos Estados Americanos no período correspondente a 2000 e 2016. Destaca-se como corpus os discursos proferidos pela delegação brasileira nas Reuniões Gerais Ordinárias, disponíveis em atas oficiais. Busca-se compreender os enunciados brasileiros e responder quais são as regularidades e rupturas. Para tal considera-se a conjuntura internacional, doméstica e institucional, bem como leva-se em conta a conformação discursiva da OEA e as relações de poder-saber que compõem este tecido discursivo. Enquanto objetivo específico, pretende-se uma análise da dinâmica das relações do Brasil na OEA, o que direciona a pesquisa a um olhar ao desempenho da política externa dos Estados Unidos que responda em que medida há um tensionamento. Utiliza-se a abordagem da Análise do Discurso pautada nas reflexões de Michel Foucault, com o intento de observar a ação discursiva do Brasil no órgão multilateral em uma perspectiva apoiada na materialidade linguística, fazendo uso das chaves- teóricas: enunciado, formação discursiva (FD), sujeito, discurso, acontecimento. Analisa-se a Questão das Ilhas Malvinas, as correlação entre as pautas democracia, segurança e integração regional, por fim a discursivização acerca do “Impeachment de Dilma Rousseff” ou “Golpe de 2016”. Ao fim aponta-se a existência de uma regularidade a despeito da mudança de gestão; uma diversificação em relação aos conteúdos tradicionais da PEB; a regência do MRE na condução da política externa; e desigualdade de gênero na composição do quadro da delegação

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    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

    Variations on the Author

    “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

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We 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

    We 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
