La paratragedia in Aristofane: ricerche sulla ricezione del tragico nel V sec. a.C.
Get PDFTra i tratti caratteristici della commedia antica merita attenzione la paratragedia, ovvero la ripresa in ambito comico di passi tragici, con o senza intento parodico dell’autore. Partendo dal saggio Paratragodia di Peter Rau, ancora fondamentale su questo argomento, il lavoro di ricerca intende innanzitutto elaborare una nuova catalogazione del materiale tragico presente nelle commedie di Aristofane, concentrandosi sui drammi di Eschilo, Sofocle ed Euripide giuntici frammentariamente, e alla luce di quanto emerso riflettere, laddove possibile, se alla base delle citazioni e allusioni tragiche si possa individuare la visione della messa in scena teatrale oppure la fruizione libraria
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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

Get PDFVariations on the Author
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
Sviluppo di un approccio formativo innovativo interdisciplinare orientato alla realizzazione di policy istituzionali: percorso integrato di Coaching individuale e di Team, di Mentoring e Formazione d’aula
Get PDFIntroduction The increasing of people affected by chronic diseases implies a significant commitment of resources to ensure continuity of long-term healthcare services. Italian Healthcare Authorities have adopted a National Chronicity Plan focusing on empowerment as the center of a pact of care between professionals and patients and caregivers to deal with global healthcare needs through multidisciplinary management, with the ambitious aim of changing the history of chronicity.
IPACS (Institutional & Public Coaching Services) has set as it’s own primary objective the development of the specific aspect of professional interdisciplinary role in the socio-health field, considered critical for implementing the policies on chronicity of the Ministry of Health.
Material and Methods IPACS has developed an experiential integrated training device (Mentoring + Individual Coaching + Team Coaching + Classroom Training + Art) lasting 6 months addressed to healthcare professionals, conducted by Institutional mentors and coaches with credentials of the International Coach Federation (ICF). The IPACS protocol utilizes validated questionnaires, observation sheets and other training tools/devices such as training pills and initial and final post-assessment feedback.
Results The use of a standard methodology for evaluation and observation in the integrated coaching protocol allows the measurement of training results and the validation of the relative impact on the achievement of the system objectives and plan of action. The data relating to a study protocol are entered in the IPACS Empowerment platform which measures and describes the evolution curve of the individual and the team's capabilities, as well as the effects on the organization, going to form the database for the Health Technology Assessment of training technology.
Conclusions The IPACS integrated coaching protocol, a process innovation tool capable of modifying the evolution curve of the individual and the reference team's capabilities, as well as the effects on the organization, offers useful technological innovation
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
