Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Theory of Mind - Inhibitorische Kontrolle - Sensorische Integrationsfähigkeit. Eine Längsschnittstudie zur Erfassung des Zusammenhangs zwischen Sensorischer Integrationsfähigkeit, Inhibitorischer Kontrolle und Theory of Mind
Full text linkDie Fähigkeit, Verhaltensweisen anderer Personen auf deren mentale Prozesse und Zustände zurück zu führen, entwickelt sich ab dem dritten Lebensjahr. Zeitgleich wird die Fähigkeit zur Inhibitorischen Kontrolle weiter ausdifferenziert. Die zu beobachtende Parallelität in der Entwicklung beider Konstrukte hat in den letzten 20 Jahren zahlreiche Forschungsgruppen beschäftigt. Schwerpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die Untersuchung des Kausalzusammenhangs zwischen der Theory of Mind sowie der Inhibitorischen Kontrolle. Es wurden Kinder mit sensorischem Integrationsdefizit einer Kontrollgruppe zwischen 3-5 Jahren gegenübergestellt (Wellmann et al., 2001), die mittels einer Testbatterie zur Theory of Mind sowie zur Inhibitorischen Kontrolle untersucht wurden.Die Annahme, dass Kinder mit sensorischer Integrationsstörung eine verzögerte Entwicklung der Theory of Mind sowie der Inhibitorischen Kontrolle haben, konnte gestützt werden. Es kann angenommen werden, dass die Entwicklung zwar zeitlich verzögert, also über Kompensationsstrategien abläuft, Kinder mit Sensorischen Integrationsstörungen diese Fähigkeiten jedoch prinzipiell entwickeln können. Hinsichtlich des Kausalzusammenhangs zwischen der Entwicklung der Theory of Mind, der Inhibitorischen Kontrolle und der Sensorischen Integrationsfähigkeit konnte gezeigt werden, dass die Sensorische Integrationsfähigkeit als Vorläuferfähigkeit für die Entwicklung der Inhibitorischen Kontrolle angesehen werden kann. Diese wiederum konnte durch die Längsschnitterhebung als Grundvoraussetzung für die Entwicklung der Theory of Mind identifiziert werden. Der spezifische Zusammenhang verliert sich jedoch bei steigenden Fähigkeiten. Es kann also mit Bjorklund & Kipp (2001; siehe auch Bjorklund & Pellegrini, 2002; Chasiotis et al., 2006; Pellicano, 2007) angenommen werden, dass ein Grundlevel an Inhibitorischer Kontrollfähigkeit als Vorraussetzung zur Entwicklung einer Theory of Mind angesehen werden kann
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
The developmental role of experience-based metacognition for cultural diversity in executive function, motivation, and mindreading
No full textHow children obtain an understanding of mental states in others—“mindreading” or “theory of mind” (ToM)—during their cognitive development is a major concern in developmental psychology. There is also much debate about and empirical research on the developmental relationship between ToM and the set of processes that monitor and control thoughts and actions, i.e., executive functioning (EF). Until recently, little was known about the cross-cultural variation of both concepts. This chapter presents empirical findings on these concepts and takes a metacognitive perspective to clarify their relationship. A series of cross-cultural studies have been undertaken to specify the relationship between EF and ToM by verifying assumptions about the quality of conflict inhibition necessary for the development of ToM’s key aspect, false-belief understanding. The main argument is that an experience-based view of the metacognitive mechanisms involved might give a more parsimonious explanation of their relationship and their cultural variations.</p

No full textAppropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
