    Lo scopo della presente ricerca è di creare un percorso di formazione per educatori extrascolastici incentrato sull’autoconsapevolezza del proprio funzionamento psicologico ed emotivo, a partire dallo stile di Attaccamento personale. Contemporaneamente, a partire dai dati raccolti, è stata verificata la possibilità di creare in futuro percorsi formativi personalizzati incentrati sulla promozione di tecniche meta-cognitive che provengono dalla psicologia clinica cognitivista e che , progressivamente interiorizzate, possono essere un utile strumento di gestione degli episodi critici con gli utenti da parte degli operatori. La ricerca, che si struttura come una ricerca-intervento, è divisa in due fasi nelle quali sono stati usati rispettivamente strumenti di analisi quantitativa e qualitativa. I soggetti coinvolti lavorano al “Progetto Piano Urbano”, un progetto di riabilitazione psichiatrica attivo sul territorio di Milano. Ogni operatore è stato coinvolto in un breve percorso di autoconoscenza in cui i dati emersi dai questionari, somministrati nella prima fase della ricerca, sono stati riferiti e discussi con i soggetti in apposite interviste individuali di restituzione. Nella prima fase della ricerca ogni soggetto oltre che rispondere ai questionari su Attaccamento, Burn-out e Credenze personali, ha anche stilato una breve autodescrizione. Nella seconda fase, durante l’intervista, è stato inoltre chiesto ad ogni soggetto di raccontare un episodio critico e invalidante avvenuto con un utente sul luogo di lavoro: l’analisi del contenuto del testo delle interviste è stata fatta con l’obiettivo di far emergere la presenza di competenze meta-cognitive specifiche mostrate dai soggetti nella narrazione dell’episodio critico, legate in particolare al Monitoraggio Meta-cognitivo. Una seconda analisi del contenuto è stata fatta con l’obiettivo di osservare, nella parte relativa alla restituzione dei risultati dei questionari, le modalità di reazione a punteggi inaspettati e non condivisi. Per quanto riguarda l’autodescrizione è stata effettuata un’analisi quantitativa e qualitativa del sistema di costrutti implicati della realizzazione del compito. L’analisi dei risultati, oltre a mostrare il “profilo personale” di ogni soggetto sulle variabili prese in considerazione, offre indicazioni sulla possibilità di creare percorsi formativi personalizzati per gli educatori extrascolastici, incentrati oltre che sulla consapevolezza del proprio funzionamento psicologico, anche sulla progressiva interiorizzazione di alcune tecniche Meta-cognitive, utilizzate prevalentemente in ambito terapeutico e clinico.The purpose of the present research is to create a training pathway for the Helping Figures, focused on self-consciousness of one's psychological and emotional working, starting from personal attachment style. At the same time it was investigated the possibility to assess personalized training pathways focused on the promotion of meta-cognitive techniques arising from cognitive clinical psychology, that, once progressively inwarded, could be an useful instrument for the operator to manage the critical episodes with the users. The research, which was built as an intervention-research, was divided in two phases in which quantitative and qualitative instruments were used. The involved subjects were working to the "Progetto Piano Urbano", a psychiatric rehabilitation project on Milano territory. Each operator was involved in a short self-knowledge pathway, during which the data coming from the questionnaires administered in the first research phase were reported and discussed in suitable individual restitution interviews. In the first phase of the research each subject was asked to write a short self-description and to answer to Attachment, Burn-Out and Personal Beliefs. Moreover, in the second phase each subject was asked to relate about a critical and disabling episode happened on work place: the content of the interviews was analyzed in the purpose of identify the specific meta-cognitive skills showed by the subjects in the critical episode relation, particularly linked to the Meta-Cognitive Monitoring. A further analysis was performed on the questionnaires results restitution, aimed to observe the reaction to unespected or non-shared results. As for the self description, a quantitative and qualitative analysis was performed on the meanings system involved in the task fulfillment. The results analysis, besides showing the "personal profile" of each subject as for the considered variables, offers indications about the possibility to create personalized training pathways for extra-scholastic educators, focused not only on the self-consciousness of own psychological working, but also on the progressive inwarding of some meta-cognitive techniques, mostly used in therapeutics and clinics

    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

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We 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

    PharmaGuard: Automatic identification of illegal search-indexed online pharmacies

    No full text
    We present PharmaGuard, a novel system for the automatic discovery of illegal online pharmacies, aimed at assisting law-enforcement toward their early identification, blacklisting and shutdown. Given a previously labelled set of examples, the system is able to learn a profile of (illegal) pharmacies, and then exploit it to discover never-before-seen instances indexed by popular web search engines. Our experiments, performed on webpages found in the wild, indicate that our approach is lightweight, allows for high accuracy and can substantially complement state-of-the-art blacklists. We also present a report on the detected online pharmacies that better highlights the relevance of this threat for Internet users

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We 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
