    학위논문(박사) - 한국과학기술원 : 산업디자인학과, 2015.2 ,[x, 143 p. :]현대의 온라인 소셜 미디어들이 커뮤니케이션의 신속함과 간편함, 편리함이라는 ‘빠름’의 특성에 편향되어 발전되고 있는 경향이 있다. 이를 배경으로, 이 연구는 ‘느림의 철학(philosophy of slowness)’이 내포하는 소통을 통한 성찰의 가치, 그리고 경험의 다양성이라는 가치에 주목하여, ‘느림의 철학’을 소통의 영역에서 구현한 ‘느린 커뮤니케이션(slow communication)’의 가치와 느린 커뮤니케이션을 위한 디자인(design for slow communication)의 중요성에 대해 재고하였으며, 최종적으로 느린 커뮤니케이션을 염두에 둔 온라인 소셜 미디어의 디자인을 위한 ‘쉬어가기 디자인 (Pause moment Design)’과, 이를 중심으로 한 종합적 디자인 지식(comprehensive design knowledge)을 도출하는 것을 목표로 하였다. ‘쉬어가기 디자인’이란, 일종의 단순화된 인터렉션 방식을 묘사하는 디자인 개념의 한 종류로, 인터렉티브 시스템의 사용 과정에서 사용자가 일정 시간 동안 시스템 사용에 대한 몰입에서 한 걸음 물러나 자신의 내면이나 경험에 대해 성찰할 수 있는 시간을 마련해주는 인터렉션 디자인 전략을 뜻한다. 본 연구는 일반적인 상황에서 온라인 소셜 미디어의 사용자들이 능동적으로 커뮤니케이션의 속도를 조절하기 위해 활용하는 방식들을 실질적으로 관찰함으로써, 위와 같은 디자인 개념이 ‘느린 커뮤니케이션’을 구현하는데 필요한 디자인 개념이라고 확신하였다. 그리고 이 기초적인 디자인 개념에 기반하여, 본 연구는 디자인 사례의 반복적인 개발과 검증을 통해 발전된 ‘쉬어가기 디자인’의 개념과 더불어, ‘쉬어가기 디자인’을 위해 고려되어야 하는 디자인 고려사항, ‘쉬어가기 디자인’이 암시 혹은 내포하는 결과적인 영향에 대한 이해, 그리고 ‘느림의 철학’에 기반한 ‘느린 커뮨케이션’의 개념적 기반의 발전 등 다양한 스펙트럼에 걸친 디자인 관련 지식을 축적하고자 하였다...한국과학기술원 :산업디자인학과

    THE EMOTIONAL QUALITY OF MUSICAL SOUND INTERFACE TO UNDERSTAND CONTEXTS

    Musical sound interfaces diverse in their tonality and pitch were employed to investigate the influence of emotions on contextual interpretation; two empirical studies using smartphone platform were conducted. The measured appropriateness of the interfaces for several purposes revealed the influence of emotions on the perception of context, with significant relation between the interfaces’ emotional qualities, which were rated in terms of pleasure and arousal, and perceived context represented by appropriateness. In addition, the contextual attributes of the interfaces measured by verbal estimation were shown to be correlated with the sounds’ pleasure and arousal. Throughout the studies the effect of emotional qualities on musical interfaces contextual attributes were verified, meanwhile the implementation of findings required further explorations

    The effect of interaction modality for facial-constrained robots in domestic environment

    The objectives of these studies were to examine the effect of non-verbal cues of a Future Robotic Computer (FRC) on people’s impressions of the robots (Study 1) and on people’s perceptions of the robots’ emotions (Study 2). In Study 1, participants watched nine stimuli drawn from robots in three working conditions (not working, working using one eye module, working using two eye modules) and in three gazing conditions (not gazing at the participant, gazing at participant with one eye module, gazing at participant with two eye modules), and then their impressions of the robots were evaluated. The participants had more positive impressions of the robots gazing at them with two eye modules compared with one eye module. For the robots which worked using one eye module, however, participants evaluated the robots gazing at them with another eye module as having better performance than the robots gazing at them with two eye modules including a working eye module. In Study 2, the participants experienced six types of sound with three pitch changes (monotonous, ascending, descending) and two lengths (short, long). The results demonstrated that the attributes of the non-verbal sounds can be used to express both positivity and emotion. In this paper, the implications of the non-verbal cue design for FRCs are discussed

    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

    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

    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
