Covid 19 : Quels effets sur le travail et l’emploi
La pandémie de COVID 19 a eu un effet très fort et négatif dans plusieurs secteurs de la
société et de l’économie au Québec, au Canada et ailleurs dans le monde.
Comme nous allons le montrer dans cette introduction, ainsi que dans chacun des
articles de ce numéro, la pandémie semble avoir exacerbé des inégalités déjà présentes
sur le marché du travail et de l’emploi. Elle a en fait agi comme accélérateur de certains
processus structurels déjà en cours et mis en évidence les incongruités et problèmes
associés aux transformations socioéconomiques en cours depuis trente ou quarante
ans, comme la mondialisation et le modèle de développement tel qu’il a été jusqu’à
maintenant pensé et mis en place. En raison de sa force de frappe et de son impact
global (nonobstant les différences nationales et territoriales), cette crise met donc en
évidence les transformations au sein des principales sphères sociétales (État, marché,
famille/communauté) et à l’intersection de celles-ci. Elle influe également sur les
chaînes de production, dont elle a mis en évidence les fragilités et les ruptures.

L’intégration socioprofessionnelle des jeunes en difficulté socio-économique et l’importance des initiatives locales
En adoptant des perspectives diverses, issues de différentes disciplines (linguistique, traductologie, analyse du discours, littérature, sociologie, urbanisme, étude du paysage, géographie, histoire, etc.) et en s’inspirant dʼapproches théoriques actuelles, les participants se sont penchés sur le thème du bien-être en ville. Les travaux ont débordé largement de l’approche médico-sociale que sous-tend le titre du colloque et dans laquelle on évalue avec intérêt les effets d’une politique sur le bien-être des citoyens. C’est aussi sous l’impulsion des paradigmes identitaires que nous avons approfondi le thème que nous nous sommes donné. Il nous semble en effet que l’étude du vivre ensemble implique de se pencher sur les paradigmes constitutifs de l’identité, à la rencontre desquels l’individu se confronte au croisement des différences linguistiques, culturelles et sociales qui enrichissent et font battre le cœur de la société. Lʼouvrage comprend les contributions de Paola Puccini, Dino Gavinelli, Paolo Molinari, Marco Alberio, Diane-Gabrielle Tremblay, Maurizio Bergamaschi, Harold Bérubé, Anna Giaufret, Jean-François Plamondon, Sophie Bienvenu, Cristiano Felice, Sherry Simon et Gerardo Acerenza
Le cas des entreprises d'insertion au Québec : une innovation en économie sociale pour le sou-tien de l'emploi des jeunes?
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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
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
