Authenticity and self-control: a social neuroscience approach
No full textThis dissertation explores the essence of authenticity—the true, genuine self of an individual—from three distinct perspectives: self-accuracy, self-consistency, and self-enhancement. Additionally, it investigates the role of authenticity in the relationship between self-control and reward processing. In Chapter 1, I review the existing literature on the self and authenticity, systematically tracing their conceptual evolution across different historical periods and theoretical frameworks. I examine the three perspectives of authenticity along with their respective empirical evidence from psychological research, and contrast authenticity with another prominent form of self-representation—the presented self. I also discuss behavioural and neuroscientific methods used to study the self and authenticity. Furthermore, I investigate the role of trait authenticity in shaping self-control exertion over reward processing. The empirical chapters present a series of studies designed to contribute to the current literature. In Chapter 2, I test the self-enhancement view of authenticity rigorously by comparing the authentic self with the presented self using the SR-valence task. Both behavioural and neuroscientific findings reveal that authenticity, albeit predominantly positive, allows room for negativity, providing support for the self-accuracy and self-consistency perspectives. In Chapter 3, I further examine the self-enhancement, self-accuracy, and self-consistency views by investigating the interference of negative information on self-evaluation through the self-referent emotional Stroop task. Both behavioural and neuroscience findings demonstrate that the presented self is more inclined toward positivity, whereas the authentic self exhibits greater tolerance for negativity. In Chapter 4, I first examine the neural basis of the reward responsivity hypothesis of self-control by a modified monetary incentive delay task (Part A), and then re-examine whether the reward responsivity following self-control exertion is potentially influenced by trait authenticity (Part B). The findings provide neurophysiological evidence supporting the reward responsivity hypothesis of self-control, although the enhancement of reward responsivity appears to be independent of trait authenticity.Finally, in Chapter 5, I synthesize the key findings of the studies, discuss their theoretical and empirical implications, highlight the strengths and limitations of the research, and propose directions for future investigations.<br/

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Dataset supporting thesis 'Authenticity and self-control: a social neuroscience approach'
No full textDataset supporting thesis 'Authenticity and self-control: a social neuroscience approach'. The dataset is provided in three file formats (CSV, SAV, OMV), and EXCEL, SPSS and Jamovi are needed to view these data, respectively. The dataset was collected from undergraduate student participants. The dataset comprises behavioural measures, e.g., reaction time (units of measurement: millisecond), hit rate (units of measurement: percentage), as well as neurophysiological measures, e.g., electroencephalogram (units of measurement: microvolt). </span
Variations on the Author
No full text“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
No full textWe 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
