Étude de l’activité « située » de collégiens en cours d’EPS : une opportunité pour examiner les conditions de validité des entretiens d’autoconfrontation
No full textJérome Guérin, Jacques Riff, Serge Testevuide. "A study of the «set» activity of junior secondary school students in the P. E. lesson: an opportunity to look back into the conditions of validiy of self confrontation interviews. This article looks into the potentials of the heuristic method of self confrontation within the framework of the study of school activities of students (first formers to fourth formers) in a set cognitive anthropological perspective. Self confrontation consists in an interview which is twofold: it deals with expliciting commentaries on past sequences of activity by members of the group, it also relies on the audiovisual recordings of the past sequences. First we present the theoretical frame, the context of the study and the conditions that guaranteed the quality of these self confrontations. Second, basing ourselves on observations made over a period of four months, we bring to light the three stages which structured the progressive construction of a reflexive position of the students to explicit the meaning of the experience they lived at school. The last part consists in a synthesis in favour of the viability and of the methodological potential of the self confrontations carried out with the students.Cet article examine le potentiel heuristique de la méthode de l’autoconfrontation dans le cadre de l’étude de l’activité d’élèves dans une perspective d’anthropologie cognitive située. L’autoconfrontation est un entretien qui présente la double particularité de porter sur l’explicitation de séquences d’activité passée des participants, et de s’appuyer sur l’enregistrement audiovisuel de ces séquences. Dans un premier temps nous présentons le cadre théorique, le contexte de l’étude ainsi que les conditions qui ont été réunies pour favoriser la qualité des autoconfrontations. Dans un second temps, à partir d’observations réalisées pendant quatre mois, nous mettons en évidence les trois étapes qui ont marqué la construction progressive d’une position réflexive des élèves pour expliciter la signification de leur expérience vécue en classe. La dernière partie propose une synthèse qui défend la viabilité et le potentiel méthodologique des autoconfrontations menées avec des élèves.Guérin Jérôme, Riff Jacques, Testevuide Serge.

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
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
