Revisiting the concept of drive from affective neuroscience (Panksepp) to neuropsychoanalysis (Solms): A comment on Mark Solms’ paper|La rivisitazione del concetto di pulsione dalle neuroscienze affettive (Panksepp) alla neuropsicoanalisi (Solms): commento all’articolo di Mark Solms
No full textMark Solms' revision of the concept of drive represents the latest in a series of his indepth reviews of the most fundamental Freudian concepts. The movement of neuropsychoanalysis begun in 2000 with the first Congress focused precisely on a neuroscientific definition of affects and emotions. In 2013, Solms proposed a substantial and profound modification of Freud's structural model, motivating his theses which argue that the instinctual id can only be conscious. In the current paper, Solms (2021a) reaffirms and re-evaluates the centrality of drive theory in psychoanalysis and neuroscience as a starting point for understanding conscious and unconscious phenomena, in normality as well in pathology

Infant directed speech and frontal lobe
No full textSaito et al.1 showed, by means of a two channel NIRS, a differential response of the neonatal brain to maternal Infant Directed Speech (IDS), in comparison to Adult Directed Speech (ADS). Their study is very interesting. They hypothesize that a newborn is able to distinguish between different emotional communications in the first days of life. These results reignite the discussion on early predisposition for newborns’ recognition of their mothers, and on how early relational skills in newborns correlate with fetal learning abilities in the intrauterine environment
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
