    In 2020 Italy, first in Europe, faced COVID-19 pandemic, at a complex time from an economic, social and environmental point of view. The PNRR is an opportunity to accelerate the ecological and digital transition, promote equity, invest in work, inclusion, mobility and health (OASI, 2020). The attention to the health issue is manifested in Mission 6 with the strengthening of territorial health and social networks that will take place also thanks to the Community Houses’ realization, integrating social and health services (PNRR, 2021). On the basis of the research group studies and experiences in the healthcare spaces design and their humanisation, the aim of the work is to initiate a dialogue between the project disciplines and local health professionals to understand the relationship between the spaces’ characteristics and care activities, health promotion and prevention, with a particular attention to the paediatrics of the territory. Two meetings were held during which some members of the Association of Cultural Pediatricians of the West, committed to the study of medical issues with relational and sociological implications, have presented their point of view on these structures

    Verso uno Smart Community Welfare per una risposta al disagio abitativo. Towards a Smart Community Welfare as a response to the housing emergency

    L’implementazione di una rete abitativa sociale richiede l’adozione di politiche di welfare in un quadro normativo nazionale condiviso, nonché di modelli organizzativi, progettuali e comunitari, abilitati dalla pervasività delle ICT, tali da consentire un cambio di paradigma nella struttura dualistica del mercato immobiliare. In seguito ad un’analisi condotta su più livelli e al coinvolgimento di enti gestori di Housing Sociale, emergono linee guida programmatiche – nell’ambito delle policy per la casa – e progettuali – nell’ambito dello spazio fisico e digitale in grado di favorire relazioni socio-assistenziali peculiari – rispetto alla promozione di un network abitativo sociale alternativo, attraverso un approccio in grado di integrare gli ambiti considerati (Smart, Community, Welfare). The implementation of a social housing network requires the adoption of welfare policies within a shared national regulatory framework, as well as new organisational, design and community models, enabled by the pervasiveness of ICT, in order to allow a paradigm shift in the dualistic structure of the real estate market. Following an analysis conducted on several levels and the involvement of local social housing authorities, we identified guidelines that are both programmatic – in the context of policies for the home – and project-related – regarding the physical and digital space, able to foster peculiar socialcare relationships. In this perspective, the integration of the domains considered (smart, community, welfare) could promote an alternative social housing network

    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

    Full text link
    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

    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
