    La segmentazione multidimensionale del mercato: i risultati di un'indagine sulla comunicazione mobile

    No full text
    Nell’articolo si presenta uno studio di segmentazione del mercato della telecomunicazione mobile in Italia, fondato su un modello multidimensionale. Il presupposto teorico del lavoro è, pertanto, la proposta di uno schema di segmentazione fondato su variabili di diversa natura, mentre l’applicazione empirica è riferita, nell’esemplificazione utilizzata, alla domanda di mobile communication da parte di un campione della popolazione italiana (circa 1100 individui)

    Networked business incubators: A systematic literature review

    No full text
    In this paper, we contribute to the literature on business incubators by focusing on networked business incubators. Recent studies have highlighted the central role played by incubators in embedding a company within well-organised networks, which is a main factor for start-up success. In this vein, we conduct a systematic literature review of scientific papers, matching the issues of incubators and networks through Bibliometrix, an open-source R-package. The findings highlight the existence of five literature clusters, with their own set of features emphasising specific characteristics of the investigated phenomenon

    TrkC-CreERT2-mediated recombination supports evidence that TrkC+/TH+ DRG neurons contribute to cardiovascular homeostasis

    In their Matters Arising article, McMullan et al. (2022) offer alternative explanations for the phenotypes we observed upon stimulation and ablation of TrkCCreERT2-positive neurons in mice. Their interpretations are focused on two aspects: first, whether the vasoconstriction we observed upon activation of TrkCCreERT2 neurons is really mediated by TrkC/TH-positive neurons, or whether it might stem from stimulation of somatic nociceptors that also express TrkC; and second, whether the lethality observed after ablation of TrkCCreERT2 neurons might be a result of ablation of vagal afferents and not TrkC/TH neurons located in the spinal ganglia. Central to both of these concerns is the expression and recombination efficiency of the TrkCCreERT2 transgene in these other cell types. This Matters Arising Response paper addresses the McMullan et al. (2022) Matters Arising paper, published concurrently in Cell Reports

    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
