Perceiving foreign-accented speech with decreased spectral resolution in single- and multiple-talker conditions
To determine the effect of reduced spectral resolution on the intelligibility of foreign-accented speech, vocoder-processed sentences from native and Mandarin-accented English talkers were presented to listeners in single- and multiple-talker conditions. Reduced spectral resolution had little effect on native speech but lowered performance for foreign-accented speech, with a further decrease in multiple- talker conditions. Following the initial exposure, foreign-accented speech with reduced spectral resolution was less intelligible than unprocessed speech in both single- and multiple-talker conditions. Intelligibility improved with extended exposure, but only for single- talker conditions. Results indicate a perceptual impairment when perceiving foreign-accented speech with reduced spectral resolution.School of Behavioral and Brain Science
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

"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Michel Foucault e a genealogia como crítica do presente: as práticas disciplinares e a analítica do poder e da sexualidade
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências da EducaçãoCom uma apresentação das teses centrais que compõem a genealogia do poder em Michel Foucault procuramos colocar em relevo o caráter crítico dessas análises. A genealogia como crítica da modernidade, além de efetuar um deslocamento em relação à tradição do pensamento político moderno, ao distinguir as práticas de poder de sua "concepção jurídica", trás à tona o intrincado e complexo campo das práticas disciplinares que se estabelece como "objetivação" dos corpos e das "almas" dos indivíduos. Já na análise da constituição do "dispositivo de sexualidade", discute sua história sem a determinação da categoria da repressão. Nessa perspectiva, Foucault como genealogista, faz da atitude crítica sobre a nossa constituição histórica e o mundo em que vivemos, o problema filosófico por excelência e a tarefa ético-política fundamental, que marcam decisivamente seu trabalho intelectua

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
