    L’articolo, partendo dalla presentazione di una innovativa esperienza trattamentale nei confronti di sex offender attuata nella Casa Circondariale di Chieti, vuole proporre l’importanza che i percorsi di inclusione nei confronti di tali autori di reato assumono quale presupposto indiscutibile per l’attuazione di programmi trattamentali specifici. L’esperienza svolta dagli operatori del carcere di Chieti si è avvalsa anche di una collaborazione con l’Università “G. d’Annunzio” che ha evidenziato come in tali autori di reato siano presenti significative distorsioni cognitive su cui è importante intervenire al fine di ottenere il recupero della persona e la riduzione della recidiva. Vengono esposti i risultati della ricerca svolta su 24 sex offender e non che ha evidenziato una presenza più significativa di distorsioni cognitive negli autori di reati sessuali rispetto agli autori di reato non a sfondo sessuale, soprattutto a danno di vittime maggiorenni piuttosto che minorenni. Vengono analizzati modelli trattamentali applicati a livello nazionale e internazionale e indicati successivi sviluppi di ricerca al fine di proporre programmi di intervento sulla stessa popolazione detenuta nel carcere di Chieti. Résumé À partir de la présentation d’un programme novateur axé sur la réinsertion de délinquants sexuels, mis en œuvre dans la prison italienne de Chieti (Casa Circondariale), l’article souligne l’importance de l’inclusion de ces délinquants en tant que condition essentielle à la réalisation de programmes de réinsertion spécifiques. Grâce à la collaboration entre le personnel pénitentiaire et les chercheurs de l’universitéUniversité « G. d’Annunzio », cette expérience prouve que ce type de délinquants est affecté par d’importants préjugés cognitifs. C’est pourquoi, il est important de réaliser une intervention de débiaisement afin d’une meilleure réhabilitation de la personne et pour contribuer à la réduction de la récidive. Les résultats de la recherche menée auprès de 24 personnes (dont certaines sont des délinquants sexuels, d’autres non) montrent que les délinquants sexuels sont affectés plus que les autres par des préjugés cognitifs et en particulier dans le cas où leurs victimes ont plus de 18 ans. En outre, dans cet article, les auteurs analysent les modèles italiens et internationaux de traitement et enfin proposent de nouvelles activités de recherche afin d’étendre ce type de programme à la totalité de la population carcérale de la prison de Chieti. Abstract Starting from the presentation of an innovative program addressing the rehabilitation of sex offenders, implemented inside the Italian prison of Chieti (Casa Circondariale), the article proposes the importance of the inclusion of these offenders as an essential condition for the implementation of specific rehabilitation programs. Thanks to the collaboration between the prison staff and the researchers coming from the University “G. d’Annunzio”, this experience shows that such offenders are affected by significant cognitive biases. Therefore, it is important to apply a debiasing intervention to better rehabilitate the person and contribute to the reduction of recidivism. The results of the research that was carried out on 24 people (some of them are sex offenders, some others not) show that the sex offenders are affected more than the others offenders by cognitive biases, and particularly when their victims were over 18. Moreover, in this paper the authors analyse Italian and international treatment models and finally they propose new research activities in order to extend this kind of program to the entire inmate population of the prison of Chieti

    International Perspectives on Adult Education. Research and Practices in the Work of Paolo Federighi

    No full text
    Adult education is a vast and complex field of research. Not only because new subjects appear with new awareness and new tasks but because politics, practice, action and reflection are fields in continuous evolution and mutual contamination. They require far-sighted, creative, refined, concrete theoretical thinking, which arises from practice and is nourished by it because it is in continuous dialogue and comparison with it. It is a research that shuns abstractions and theoretical principles and is fueled by the creation of knowledge useful for the formation of a collective subject. Paolo Federighi's scientific, political and institutional work is the synthesis of this and much more. The Volume is a collection of thoughts, essays, personal, professional and academic experiences of Colleagues who lived in his working groups that made history: both for the political innovations introduced and still in force and for the processes of organisational and community change that only the refined thought of a constantly evolving researcher could create so successfully

    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

    Full text link
    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
