Occupational titles and supposed gender-neutrality : A corpus-based diachronic study on gender-neutral occupational titles in American English

Traditionally, some occupational titles have been explicitly marked for the gender of the group dominating the occupation. For example, in male-dominated occupations, titles often end with -man. However, since the second-wave feminist movement, several of the previously gender-biased titles have been supplemented by new, gender-neutral titles. Previous research has shown a discrepancy between researchers regarding the implications of these new titles. Some argue that the gender-neutral titles are only used for female referents, whereas others claim that gender-neutral titles, especially for male- dominated occupations, tend to still presuppose maleness. In the present paper, a corpus-based study is conducted on a few selected occupational titles. The aim is to investigate whether the gender-neutral alternatives have increased in usage over time, and whether the gender-biased ones have decreased. In addition, the study aims at examining whether the gender-neutral forms tend to be used primarily for women or men. The present study is corpus-based, examining the particular terms in the TIME Magazine Corpus. The results of the study show that there has been an increase of the gender-neutral forms since their introduction to English, and that they are primarily used when there is no explicit gender referencing. Proposed explanations for these results are that it may depend on the type of work involved in the selected occupations, as well as them being male-dominated. Furthermore, the results indicate that the gender- neutral terms are opted for when gender is either unknown or irrelevant for the context. 

Investigation of manganese nodules from the Malvinas (Falkland) Plateau

Manganese nodules occurring within marine sediments of presumably Upper Miocene-Lower Pliocene age from cores obtained by the Argentine oceanographic vessel ARA Islas Orcadas in 1977 on the Malvinas (Falkland) Plateau and neighbouring Scotia Sea were studied with the aim of comparing them with other fossil nodules found on the mainland of Argentina that were also ascribed to the marine environment. After optical mineralogical, chemical, X-ray and trace element analysis, the studied "nodules" proved to be actually wacke clasts cemented by manganese oxides with a high Fe/Mn ratio corresponding to a continental environment. The studied "nodules" thus differ from the Argentine mainland nodules and are supposed to have been transported from continental environments and then deposited in the marine realms. The wacke clasts became then nuclei for the deposition of the marine manganese oxides of the coatings. The proportion of trace elements, which is high, suggests the growth of the nodules in the marine environment.

Un modelo para comprender la dinámica de los territorios rurales. El caso de la Argentina

Los territorios rurales de América Latina, y de la Argentina en particular, han sufrido cambios profundos en las últimas décadas producto de transformaciones en materia productiva, demográfica y social. Los cambios son complejos y han dado lugar a una multiplicidad de miradas y de enfoques sobre la nueva realidad. Frente a esta creciente complejidad, se plantea la construcción de un modelo interpretativo de la realidad rural de la Argentina que bien puede contribuir también para abordar las realidades de otros mundos rurales latinoamericanos. El modelo conceptual que se ofrece se construyó a partir del análisis empírico de numerosos casos de territorios rurales de la Argentina. Dicho modelo permite comprender los complejos procesos de organización y la dinámica rural, además de constituirse en una herramienta de prognosis para la definición de políticas públicas acordes que alienten nuevas dinámicas de desarrollo rural en la Argentina

El acceso abierto a las publicaciones de la comunidad científica argentina en el campo de la medicina

Se presenta un avance de investigación para estimar el acceso abierto real y potencial en las prácticas de publicación de la comunidad científica argentina a partir del análisis del modelo de acceso de las revistas donde publican los investigadores. En esta primera etapa se estudia el campo de la medicina a partir de las publicaciones de 2008-2010 incluidas en la base de datos SCOPUS, y de la consulta a las fuentes DOAJ, e-revist@s, SCielo, Redalyc, PubMed, Romeo-Sherpa y Dulcinea. Asimismo se analiza la accesibilidad de la producción por la vía de suscripción a través de la Biblioteca Electrónica de Ciencia y Tecnología del Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación Productiva de la Nación Argentina.

Oportunidades y desafíos actuales de la investigación en Bibliotecología y Ciencia de la Información. El caso del Departamento de Bibliotecología de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina

Este trabajo aporta algunas reflexiones sobre las oportunidades y desafíos actuales de la investigación en Bibliotecología y Ciencia de la Información en el ámbito de las universidades nacionales argentinas. A modo de ejemplo se estudia el caso de la actividad investigadora del Departamento de Bibliotecología de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina, a partir de la información recabada del curriculum vitae de su actual planta de docentes investigadores. Los resultados muestran que a pesar de las dificultades que plantea la investigación en esta disciplina en el país, es posible transformar los desafíos en oportunidades fortaleciendo la actividad investigadora, tanto desde la perspectiva cuantitativa como cualitativa de la formación, la participación en proyectos de investigación, y la comunicación y difusión de los resultados científicos

A comparative evaluation of term recognition algorithms

Automatic Term Recognition (ATR) is a fundamental processing step preceding more complex tasks such as semantic search and ontology learning. From a large number of methodologies available in the literature only a few are able to handle both single and multi-word terms. In this paper we present a comparison of five such algorithms and propose a combined approach using a voting mechanism. We evaluated the six approaches using two different corpora and show how the voting algorithm performs best on one corpus (a collection of texts from Wikipedia) and less well using the Genia corpus (a standard life science corpus). This indicates that choice and design of corpus has a major impact on the evaluation of term recognition algorithms. Our experiments also showed that single-word terms can be equally important and occupy a fairly large proportion in certain domains. As a result, algorithms that ignore single-word terms may cause problems to tasks built on top of ATR. Effective ATR systems also need to take into account both the unstructured text and the structured aspects and this means information extraction techniques need to be integrated into the term recognition process.
