    The contribution of psychology to research on congenital anomalies (CAs): computer-aided thematic analysis of international scientific literature

    No full text
    The paper aims at exploring the contribution of psychology-related research on Congenital Anomalies (CAs) from the analysis of international scientific literature. This could provide further knowledge to be integrated with biomedical evidence and contribute to the understanding of the risk and the protective factors which, according to a biopsychosocial perspective, may improve prevention strategies. A comprehensive search of academic literature was conducted on PsychINFO database resulting in 116 scientific publications published from 1931 to 2013. A qualitative software-based thematic analysis was carried out on the publications’ abstracts to explore the main themes relating to CAs as provided by psychology-related research. Overall, * Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected]. Complimentary Contributor Copy 92 Andrea Caputo results highlighted a rapid increase of scientific psychology-related research on CAs after 2000, thus confirming the relevant attention to these diseases in healthcare policies over the last years. Five different thematic domains emerged which respectively refer to: schizophrenia (23.62%), psychiatric drugs (16.2%), parenting (25%), developmental neuropsychology (17.36%), and relationship with healthcare workers (17.82%). In sum, with regard to the prenatal/perinatal period, psychology-related research focuses on pregnancy-related factors such as maternal risk due to psychopathological conditions, prenatal consultation and more widely healthcare workers’ diagnosis/communication skills about CAs. Instead, the postnatal period deals with cognitive and emotional development of children with CAs by promoting parental skills and detecting rehabilitation strategies for improving residual cognitive abilities. Then, the analysis on the main trends of psychology-related research on CAs highlighted two issues. The first one concerns the shift of psychological science between psychopathology and disability as research objects. The second issue pertains to the different social impacts of CAs and the relevance of both health and family care

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Guest editorial: Talent attraction and retention strategies in the post-COVID era: an introduction

    [EN] The profound impact of the pandemic over the past three years has significantly transformed our lifestyles, interpersonal relationships and professional environments, leading to drastic changesin workplace dynamics(Ayoko et al., 2021). The implementation of lockdowns, virus transmission concerns and health measures compelled companies to rapidly overhaul their management practices (Clauss et al., 2022). This abrupt shift created an unpredictable environment for which organizations were largely unprepared (Tarique and Schuler, 2010).Kraus, S.;Andrea Caputo;Palacios Marqués, Daniel;Danvila-Del-Valle, I. (2024). Guest editorial: Talent attraction and retention strategies in the post-COVID era: an introduction. Management Decision. 62(10):2961-2968. https://doi.org/10.1108/MD-10-2024-246S29612968621
