Impact van zelfhulp via steungroepen op niet-pedoseksuele pedofielen
No full textThis research analyses the nature of online peer support for non-offending pedophiles and
assesses its functions and effects by performing a qualitative content analysis of forum
posts within different peer support groups. Despite the majority of participants on the
websites being non-offending pedophiles, a minority reports hands-on and CSAM behaviour.
This study shows that the studied websites offer both positive and negative effects.
On the one hand, exchanging advice and coping mechanisms, emotional expression and
building relationships enhance individuals’ general wellbeing and may serve as a protective
factor against offending. On the other hand, frustrations may possibly lead to developing
a more hostile position towards the outside world. A normative attitude towards
sexual behaviour involving children may lead to internalising these views and create a
deviant subculture. The findings also reveal different subcultures among non-offending
pedophiles in online peer support groups. Further research into these different subcultures
is recommended. Solely qualitative methods may be insufficient and are preferably combined
with quantitative research
The policing and reporting of online child sexual abuse material : a scoping review
No full textChild sexual abuse material (CSAM) has exponentially increased in recent years because of tech-nological advances and the rise of the internet. The call for new investigative tools became urgent. As a result, automated technologies became indispensable in the field of detection, filtering, clas-sification and prioritization of CSAM. Private tech companies have slowly but surely been domi-nating the development of those automated tools. Furthermore, private organizations, NGO’s, big tech companies and online service providers hold the reins when it comes to selecting which re-ports to pass on to law enforcement, aided by automatization and their own corporate policies. At the end of the line, the reports and images the police receive, have gone through a major funnel, significantly impacted by private entities. The field of evidence on the policing and reporting of CSAM remains scattered and is characterized by a lack of coherent and integrated literature. This scoping review aims to meet this knowledge deficit by critically mapping relevant and available literature
Online steungroepen voor niet-plegende pedofielen : tussen therapeutisch en criminogeen
No full textDiscussies over pedofilie en pedoseksualiteit zijn
vaak sterk gemediatiseerd, waarbij ook pedofilie
resoluut wordt geassocieerd met seksueel kindermisbruik.
Doorgaans is er weinig of geen aandacht
voor niet-plegende pedofielen. Zij ervaren
weliswaar een aantrekking tot jonge kinderen,
maar proberen die actief te onderdrukken en bewust geen pedoseksuele
feiten te plegen. Met psychosociale moeilijkheden gerelateerd aan
hun geaardheid kunnen ze omwille van stigma moelijker terecht bij de
traditionele hulpverlening, zodat sommigen zich wenden tot online
steungroepen op peerniveau
The policing and reporting of online child sexual abuse material : a scoping review
No full textChild sexual abuse material (CSAM) has exponentially increased in recent years because of technological advances and the rise of the internet. The call for new investigative tools became urgent. As a result, automated technologies became indispensable in the field of detection, filtering, classification and prioritization of CSAM. Private tech companies have slowly but surely been dominating the development of those automated tools. Furthermore, private organizations, NGO’s, non-profits and big tech companies through (social) media platforms hold the reins when it comes to selecting which reports to pass on to law enforcement, aided by automatization and their own corporate policies. At the end of the line, the reports and images the police receive, have gone through a major funnel, significantly impacted by private entities. The field of evidence on the policing and reporting of CSAM remains scattered and is characterized by a lack of coherent and integrated literature.

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
Variations 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
