Caracterizar a apropriação da informação estatística oficial produzida pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) pela comunidade científica brasileira motivou a realização deste estudo quantitativo, baseado em técnicas bibliométricas e análise de citações. Foram analisadas 3.272 citações em 2.571 publicações científicas contidas na base de dados Web of Science (WoS) no período de 2001 a 2009. Com o uso do software Bibexcel e da planilha eletrônica Excel, os documentos citantes e citados foram analisados conforme as seguintes variáveis: áreas e temas das informações estatísticas produzidas pelo IBGE citadas; áreas do conhecimento dos pesquisadores que citam as informações estatísticas produzidas pelo IBGE; idioma dos documentos citantes; tipos de documentos citados e citantes; periódicos citantes; autores citantes; instituições dos autores citantes e país dos autores citantes. Os resultados apontaram que tanto a Estatística como a Geografia, as duas grandes áreas de assunto abordadas pelo IBGE, foram contempladas. O tema População foi o mais presente entre as publicações do IBGE citadas, e o Censo demográfico predominou, com 19,77% sobre as demais pesquisas citadas. A análise das áreas de conhecimento com base na classificação do Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) revelou que não houve predomínio de uma área em relação às demais e que todas as nove áreas foram contempladas. O idioma predominante foi o inglês, com 61,96% dos documentos citantes analisados. O tipo de documento citante predominante foi o Artigo, com 91,40% sobre o total. E em relação ao tipo de documento citado, entre as publicações do IBGE, a categoria Monografia esteve presente em 52,35% das citações analisadas. Entre os periódicos citantes evidenciou-se 805 títulos diferentes, sendo 88,95% estrangeiros e 11,05% nacionais. Os periódicos mais citantes são nacionais. Os autores são predominantemente brasileiros (80,68%), pesquisadores de instituições de ensino e pesquisa. Nas instituições de filiação dos autores há a predominância das instituições nacionais, com 640 (58,82%) instituições, enquanto que as estrangeiras têm uma representação um pouco menor, com 442 (40,62%) instituições diferentes, e as instituições de abrangência internacional representam menos de 1%. Com base nos resultados apurados é possível concluir que as informações estatísticas são apropriadas pelos pesquisadores brasileiros provenientes de todas as áreas do conhecimento e que o método bibliométrico pode ser aplicado para o acompanhamento e a prospecção dessa apropriação. / The characterization of the appropriation of official statistical information, produced by the Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), by brazilian scientific community motivated this quantitative study, based on techniques of bibliometric and citation analysis. Were analyzed 3,272 citations in 2,571 scientific publications contained in the database Web of Science (WoS) for the period 2001 to 2009. Using the software Bibexcel and spreadsheet Excel, the citing and cited documents were analyzed according to the following variables: areas and subject of statistical information produced by the IBGE cited; areas of knowledge of the researchers who cited the statistical information produced by the IBGE; language of citing documents, types of documents citing, citing journals, citing authors, institutions and country of the citing authors. The results showed that both the Geography and Statistics, the two major subject areas addressed by the IBGE, were served. The subject Population was more present in 30.62% of the citations and the Censo demográfico predominated with 19.77% over other reported studies. The analysis of the knowledge areas, based on the classification of Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), revealed no predominance of one area over others and that all nine areas were covered. The predominant language is English with 61.96% of citing documents analyzed. Regarding the type of document citing, articles are predominat, with a total of 91.40%. When the type of the document cited is analyzed, the category Monoghaph reach 52.35% of the citations analyzed. In relation to the citing journals were found 805 different titles, being 88.95% and 11.05% international and nacional respectively. The journals more citing are national. The authors are predominantly brazilians (80.68%), researchers from educational institutions and researchers. When analysed the author‟s institutional affiliation there is a predominance of national institutions with 640 (58.82%), followed by the foreign ones with 442 (40.62%) and different international institutions represent less of 1%. Based on the results it is possible to conclude that the statistical information are appropriated by Brazilian researchers in all areas of knowledge and the bibliometric method can be applied for monitoring and exploration of this appropriation.

Existe uma perspectiva teórica que afirma que os diversos motivos para que artigos sejam citados transitam entre dois polos chamados universalista e social-construtivista. Características como originalidade dos resultados e rigor metodológico são classificados como fatores universalistas; enquanto características como fama do autor e prestígio do periódico são classificados como social-construtivistas. Diante dessa perspectiva teórica, se coloca a questão de pesquisa desta tese: quais fatores do polo social-construtivista influenciam as citações que um artigo sobre contabilidade recebe no âmbito da pesquisa contábil brasileira? Para responder essa questão, fez-se uma coleta de dados de 2.540 artigos, publicados por revistas brasileiras de contabilidade, entre os anos de 2007 e 2012. Para a análise desses dados, utilizaram-se estatísticas descritivas, correlação de Pearson e teste de qui-quadrado, análise de correspondência e regressão binomial negativa. Foram criadas 16 hipóteses de fatores que influenciam a quantidade de citações dos artigos, sendo, totalmente, aceitas as hipóteses sobre a influência dos fatores afiliação institucional do primeiro autor, revista em que o artigo foi publicado, linha de pesquisa e número de referências no artigo. Mostraram-se estatisticamente significantes, em apenas determinadas circunstâncias, as hipóteses sobre a influência da quantidade de autores, do gênero do primeiro autor, da titulação do primeiro autor, do estrato do Qualis da revista e da idade da revista, assim, portanto, foram apenas parcialmente aceitas. Foram rejeitadas as hipóteses sobre a influência do número de termos no título do artigo e nas palavras-chave, do número de páginas, da posição do artigo e do tipo de edição, da proporção de autoras e da abordagem de análise dos dados. A aceitação das hipóteses sobre afiliação, revista, linha de pesquisa e número de páginas indica que há influência do polo teórico social-construtivista no padrão de citações na pesquisa contábil brasileira. Contudo, a rejeição das demais doze hipóteses mostram que essa influência é menor que no âmbito internacional, no qual mais hipóteses desse polo são aceitas. Assim, no Brasil, o padrão de citações de pesquisas é influenciado por características construídas socialmente e valorizadas pela comunidade científica. / There is a theoretical perspective that maintains that the various reasons that lead to articles being cited fall between two poles called universalist and social-constructivist. characteristics such as originality of results and rigorous methodology are classified as universalist factors, and characteristics such as author\'s prestige and journal\'s prestige are classified as social-constructivist. With this perspective in mind, the research question of this dissertation is posed: what are factors that influence the citations received by a paper within the scenario of Brazilian accounting research? To answer this question, we collected data from 2,540 papers published in Brazilian accounting academic journals between 2007 and 2012. The data analysis is based on descriptive statistics, Pearson\'s correlation and chi-square test, correspondence analysis, and negative binomial regression. We created 16 hypotheses of factors that influenced the number of times articles were quoted. The rejected hypotheses were the ones about the influence of the number of terms in the title or in the keywords of the paper, the number of pages, the position of the article and the type of edition, the proportion of female authors, and the data analysis approach (qualitative or quantitative). The following hypotheses were only statistically significant in certain circumstances, and thus, were only partially accepted: the influence of the number of authors, the gender of the first author, the academic degree of the first author, the Qualis grade of the journal, and the age of the journal. The totally accepted hypotheses were the ones about the influence of the factors such as the institutional affiliation of the first author, the journal in which the paper was published, the research line, and the number of references in the article. From these results, we can state that, in Brazil, the citation pattern of a paper is influenced by social-constructivist criteria, but to a lesser degree than that of the international context, in which more social-constructivist hypotheses are accepted. Therefore, in Brazil, the citation pattern is influenced by characteristics that are socially constructed and valued by the scientific community.

Cette thèse est une analyse scientométrique d’un corpus de 542 textes sur la didactique de la traduction publiés entre 1966 et 2009. L’objectif est de voir à travers une analyse des citations quels auteurs ont influencé ce domaine et quels sont les titres, les langues, les supports et les domaines de textes les plus cités. La plupart des auteurs les plus cités sont des traductologues non didacticiens. L’approche fonctionnaliste et l’approche linguistique de la traduction sont les courants de pensée les plus présents parmi ces auteurs dont l’influence est surtout théorique et méthodologique (méthodes d’enseignement). Les textes didactiques reflètent le poids des institutions européennes puisque la plupart des auteurs cités se trouvent sur ce continent. Les auteurs français sont cités presque uniquement par des auteurs du monde francophone alors que les germanophones les plus cités ont de l’écho auprès d’auteurs d’horizons variés. La plupart des écrits les plus cités sont des monographies de recherche traductologique publiées dans les années quatre-vingt dix par des enseignants et praticiens de la traduction. Les écrits les plus citées entre 1966 et 2005 sont des textes de recherche traductologique non didactiques alors que la période 2006-2009 est marquée par les textes didactiques sur la traduction non littéraire. Les articles d’ouvrages collectifs et de revues sont moins cités que les monographies et les auteurs citent davantage de textes anciens que récents. La majorité des textes cités sont écrits en anglais. Par ailleurs, les auteurs du corpus sont très influencés par les écrits traductologiques non didactiques et peu par des textes d’autres domaines. / This thesis is a scientometric study on 542 texts about translation didactics published between 1966 and 2009. The purpose is to investigate what authors have influenced this field and what texts, languages, types of media and disciplines are the most cited. Most cited authors are translation scholars who are not specialized in translation didactics. The functionalist and linguistic approach of translation are the most cited trends among the most cited authors. These authors are mostly cited for their theories and their teaching methods. Citing texts show the influence of European institutions, since most cited authors are affiliated in European countries. French authors are practically only cited by authors affiliated in French-speaking countries and the most influential German-speaking authors are cited by authors from various countries. The majority of most cited texts are monographs on translation studies published in the nineties by teachers and translators. The most cited texts between 1966 and 2005 deal with translation studies research (non-didactic texts) and the most cited texts between 2006 and 2009 are didactic texts on non-literary translation. Papers in collective books and journals are less cited than monographs. Authors also cite more ‘old’ texts than ‘recent’ texts (released more or less than five years after the publication of the citing text). Most cited texts are written in English and texts on translation studies (non-didactic texts) are a lot more cited than texts from other disciplines.

Spatial interaction models of the gravity type are widely used to describe origin-destination flows. They draw attention to three types of variables to explain variation in spatial interactions across geographic space: variables that characterize the origin region of interaction, variables that characterize the destination region of interaction, and variables that measure the separation between origin and destination regions. A violation of standard minimal assumptions for least squares estimation may be associated with two problems: spatial autocorrelation within the residuals, and spatial autocorrelation within explanatory variables. This paper compares a spatial econometric solution with the spatial statistical Moran eigenvector spatial filtering solution to accounting for spatial autocorrelation within model residuals. An example using patent citation data that capture knowledge flows across 257 European regions serves to illustrate the application of the two approaches.

This master’s essay presents a study designed to investigate twelve police students’ability to handle academic writing conventions and to show critical-analyticalcompetence in their degree projects, which are written as part of the education atSweden’s three police academies. The education of police officers is not an academicone, and the students’ main focus is therefore on writing texts in the field of policediscourse. At the same time, scientific principles and critical thinking are emphasized intheir syllabus, but the question of how students handle the encounter with academicdiscourse has so far not been investigated. This, therefore, is the aim of the presentstudy. The texts have been analyzed according to the academic writing conventions ofreferencing, citation, hedging and boosting. By studying how these conventions areapplied, the writers’ stances become visible, which makes it possible to discern in whatways they remain critical-analytical to person, theory and content. The study shows thatpolice students can handle academic writing conventions to varying degrees, whichmeans that their texts differ in how well they function in an academic context. The factthat they do not fully master these conventions also makes it more difficult for thestudents to signal a critical stance, and only occasionally does their critical-analyticalcompetence show. The difficulties displayed by the police students can thus be viewedas general within the field of academic discourse. At the same time, the study showsthat the students do acquire a certain competence in textual as well as writingconventions, which they are able to transfer from police discourse. This, in turn,constitutes the didactic consequence of the study. If this were to be brought up as part ofthe educational program, the writing of a degree project might raise police students’awareness of different genres and further develop the competence necessary in theirprofession.

Si la parodie est loin d'être une pratique nouvelle, la première occurrence connue du terme remontant à l'Antiquité, elle a été jusqu'alors principalement envisagée comme un genre ou comme une figure littéraires. Et pourtant ses formes, ses connotations et ses procédés sont exploités par de nombreux artistes plasticiens. Dans les années 1960, l'avènement de la société de consommation et ses effets sur la reproductibilité de l'œuvre d'art donnent à la parodie un essor nouveau. Transformant l'histoire de l'art en un répertoire accessible dans lequel puiser à loisir pour créer à partir de, la reproductibilité offre des conditions idéales au jeu parodique. Comprendre comment et pourquoi des artistes d'horizons fort divers, des années 1960 à nos jours, se saisissent de la parodie, à des fins aussi bien personnelles que contextuelles, est l'objet de cette étude. État des lieux de la notion, la première partie s'attache à définir le terme et se penche sur les parodies réalisées depuis le milieu du XIXe siècle, des Salons caricaturaux au postmodernisme en passant par les avant-gardes historiques. La deuxième partie se construit autour du ludique, du comique et du satirique, compris comme autant de couleurs et de régimes. Enfin, la troisième partie est consacrée à la part réflexive de la parodie. Art sur l'art, cette dernière participe à une mise en cause institutionnelle et aspire à la dénudation du faire artistique lui-même. Tout au long de cette étude, la parodie apparaît comme une pratique essentiellement ambivalente, entre mauvais genre et pratique cultivée, gaminerie et jeu élitiste, dégénérescence de l'art et sursaut de créativité, destitution et aveu d'admiration, outrage et hommage. / The word parody has been coined during classical antiquity and has since been considered mostly as a literary genre or figure. Nevertheless, numerous plastic artists are making use of its forms, processes and connotations. During the 1960s decade, the advent of consumerism and its effects on the work of art duplicability gave a new rise to parody. Reproducibility allowed the transformation of history of arts into a vast repertoire in which one may draw to create from and thus, offered a fertile ground for parodic creation. This study focuses on understanding why and how such a wide range of artists are taking advantage of parody for personal or contextual ends from the 1960s to nowadays. The first part of this study is articulated around the precise definition of the term and a chronological view of the parodic art since the middle of the 19th century, from the Salons caricaturaux to postmodernism including historical avant- gardes. The notions of playfulness, comic and satiric will be discussed in the second part, in order to grasp the multiple shades of parody. The third and last part is devoted to the specular aspect of parody that leads to a questioning of the artistic institutions and aims to unveil the artistic practices themselves. Across these pages, parody appears as an ambivalent process, oscillating between mauvais genre and sophistication, childishness and elitism, barrenness and creative rebirth, destitution and admiration, outrage and tribute.

The main goal of the thesis is to explore basic methods which can be used to find semantically related scientific articles. All the methods are explained in detail, compared and in the end evaluated by the standard metrics. Based on the evaluation, a new method for computing semantic similarity of scientific articles is proposed. The proposed method is based on the current state-of-the-art methods and adds the another important factor for computing similarity - citations. Using citations is important, since they represent a static bond between the articles. Finally, the proposed method is evaluated on the real data and compared with other described methods.

This study employs the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to understand the role of attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control on students’ intent to orally cite sources using complete, rather than partial, citations. Undergraduates (N = 326) enrolled in general education oral communication courses completed a self-report survey testing the TPB variables and students’ citation intentions. Findings demonstrate that subjective norms and perceived behavioral control predict student intention to cite sources and do so completely. Tensions between credibility gains and time constraints are also evident. Implications for teaching students in basic courses about oral citations are discussed.

This thesis deals with the task of identifying implicit citations between scientific publications. Apart from being useful knowledge on their own, the citations may be used as input to other problems such as determining an author’s sentiment towards a reference, or summarizing a paper based on what others have written about it. We extend two recently proposed methods, a Machine Learning classifier and an iterative Belief Propagation algorithm. Both are implemented and evaluated on a common pre-annotated dataset. Several changes to the algorithms are then presented, incorporating new sentence features, different semantic text similarity measures as well as combining the methods into a single classifier. Our main finding is that the introduction of new sentence features yield significantly improved F-scores for both approaches. / Detta examensarbete behandlar frågan om att hitta implicita citeringar mellan vetenskapliga publikationer. Förutom att vara intressanta på egen hand kan dessa citeringar användas inom andra problem, såsom att bedöma en författares inställning till en referens eller att sammanfatta en rapport utifrån hur den har blivit citerad av andra. Vi utgår från två nyliga metoder, en maskininlärningsbaserad klassificerare och en iterativ algoritm baserad på en grafmodell. Dessa implementeras och utvärderas på en gemensam förannoterad datamängd. Ett antal förändringar till algoritmerna presenteras i form av nya särdrag hos meningarna (eng. sentence features), olika semantiska textlikhetsmått och ett sätt att kombinera de två metoderna. Arbetets huvudsakliga resultat är att de nya meningssärdragen leder till anmärkningsvärt förbättrade F-värden för de båda metoderna.
