Donna Ciborowski interview, 06 October 2015
No full textDonna Ciborowski was born to a Polish immigrant family. The family took up residence in the Warszawa neighborhood in South Broadway, where Ciborowski subsequently spent her childhood. She discusses the importance of the church in the community, specifically St. Stanislaus. She also discusses numerous Polish traditions that the community continues to observe. Ciborowski notes the change in the neighborhood as Poles started to move to the suburbs. Finally she discusses the origin of the term Slavic Village

Influence of Problem Composition, Positional Cues, and past Instances on Conceptual Learning
No full text All subjects received a group of problems (traditional) which could be solved using a reference rule of conjunction or disjunction, and another group of problems (intradimensional) which could be solved either by one of the reference rules or by a structurally simpler rule. Analysis confirmed that adults were not only adept at solving on the basis of the simpler rule but that, when they did so, it led to no differences in performance between conjunction and disjunction. The usual finding of conjunction being easier than disjunction was obtained only for the traditional problems. These results replicated the findings of Ciborowski and Cole (1973). In the present experiment however, the basic experimental procedure explored the influence of positional cues and past instances of the concept to be learned. These two variables were not investigated by Ciborowski and Cole and they represented a possible confounding influence. Analysis of subjects' performance using the modified procedures supported the earlier findings. </jats:p

Greenhouse Effect: Policy Implications of a Global Warming.
Get PDFThis book contains papers from a conference held in 1984 to consider the policy implications of the greenhouse effect and how to respond to the challenge of the predicted global warming. Both political and technical responses are discussed, including changes in government energy policies that might slow the greenhouse effect and alterations in land-use and in industrial policies that might compensate for the effects of the predicted global warming.Abrahamson, Dean; Ciborowski, Peter.

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
Petrography, Geochemistry and Mineralogy of the Stonehenge Sarsens: Digital Data Collection
No full textThis collection includes a suite of digital materials that, in combination, characterise the petrography, mineralogy and geochemistry of a sarsen upright (Stone 58) from the central trilithon horseshoe at Stonehenge. The collection arises from work undertaken during the British Academy/Leverhulme Trust project "Geochemical fingerprinting the sarsen stones at Stonehenge" (Small Research Grant SG-170610), led by the University of Brighton. The data accompanies the publication: Nash, D. J., Ciborowski, T. J. R., Darvill, T., Parker Pearson, M., Ullyott, J. S., Damaschke, M., Evans, J. A., Goderis, S., Greaney, S., Huggett, J. M., Ixer, R. A., Pirrie, D., Power, M. R., Salge, T. & Whitaker, N. (2021, in review) Petrological and geochemical characterisation of the sarsen stones at Stonehenge. PLoS ONE
