Revisione critica e contributo clinico alla fobia scolare
No full textA high number of neuropsychiatric consultations at the Pediatric Clinic of Padua are requested because of school problems; one of these problems is the child/ adolescent refuse of attending school joined with an important reaction of unjustified anxiety.Since nowadays school phobia is meant by nosographical literature (DSM-IV and lCD-10) as a symptom of different psychiatric diagnosis and not as a unique syndrome, our purpose was to analyse patients aged 3 to 17 years who came to NPI service of Pediatric Clinic of Padua since 1990. Clinical evaluation of school phobia as a symptom, comparison between our data from case reports and literature data, understanding of underlying problems were the topic of this wor

Disabilitá fisica e disabilitá psichica in pazienti pediatrici affetti da mielolipoma e spina bifida: caratteristiche a confronto
No full textNegli ultimi anni è stata posta molta attenzione alle caratteristiche psico-sociali
della vita di soggetti con disabilità. Mentre si evidenziano numerosi studi che
hanno indagato tali aspetti nella spina bifida, scarsa è la letteratura sul rischio
psicopatologico associato alla patologia da lipoma spinale. L’esperienza di malattia
induce nella vita del bambino e della sua famiglia mutamenti psico-affettivi
che trasformano il clima emotivo, i ruoli e le dinamiche familiari, e che possono
influenzare l’evoluzione del percorso di individuazione-separazione fondamentale
per lo sviluppo psichico di ogni individuo. È ipotizzabile che elementi quali la
gravità della clinica e la scarsa prevedibilità dell’evoluzione di malattia influenzino
lo stato psicologico del soggetto.
Il presente lavoro confronta due popolazioni con malattia cronica: il lipoma spinale
e la spina bifida aperta, indagando l’esistenza di eventuale sintomatologia psicopatologica
e valutando la presenza o meno di correlazione con le condizioni cliniche,
utilizzando i dati raccolti dalla somministrazione dei questionari di Achenbach
(CBCL) attraverso un’analisi statistica bivariata e un’analisi descrittiva delle
caratteristiche cliniche delle due popolazioni. Le due situazioni di malattia cronica
analizzate (l’una evolutiva, l’altra più stabile nel suo decorso) manifestano delle
differenze nello sviluppo di un possibile rischio psicopatologico, e questo permette
di riflettere sulla necessità di una differente presa in carico globale del paziente
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
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
Appropriate 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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 textWe 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
