Disturbo comportamentale in adolescenza: un sintomo, molteplici diagnosi
No full textAggressive behaviour, impulsivity and antisocial actions are one of the most frequent motives for adolescents’ referral to Psychiatric Service. They are not a problem itself but rather a symptom, particularly used during adolescence, to show a disease. Actually diagnosis according to nosological classifications regards conduct disorder only for a little percentage, giving space to many other different diagnosis like as personality disorders, psychosis, affective disorders, etc. The authors present a clinical study about 113 patients, 78 males and 35 female aged 11-19, seen in the Adolescent Psychophatology Service they work in. Adolescents were referred for behavioural difficulties. Variables considered are data about adolescents’ identification, their families, psychosocial environment and clinical data collected during the diagnostic process. The topic of this work is to study what kind of diagnosis correspond to behavioural difficulties in adolescents and what factors are associated to the

No full textFirst part of the paper present a brief introduction where significances and differences about the concept of psychiatric emergencies are explained according to literature. The therapeutic approach to the adolescent are described and discussed, considering hospitalisation, residential and outpatients’ interventions the meaning possibilities to replay to a psychiatric emergency. In the second part of the paper the authors present and analyse data from a case report study regarding adolescents who came to the centre they work in a situation of emergency. They are 344 individuals, 59% males and 59% females, aged 11 to 19 years
ATTIVITA' NEUROPSICHIATRICA AMBULATORIALE CON SOGGETTI, DI ETA' 0-11: STUDIO CLINICO DI 201 CASI
No full textThe authors present a case report about 201 children seen in the outpatients’ service they work in. They are children with psychic problems, referred to the service by themselves or by different structures (medical practitioner, school operator, district mental health service, hospital,...). The study considers many variables about personal, familiar, psychosocial, psychopathological and clinical factors and analyses both frequencies of single variables and relations among different variables. Interesting results came out about clinical, psychosocial and epidemiological data (relation of symptoms with diagnosis and therapy; relation of marital situation of parental couple with emergency character of the referral, story of stress life events and presence of siblings; relation of gender and age with symptoms, diagnosis and therapeutic project; relation of cultural level of family with type of referral and timing of referral by the manifestation of the problem). Results are described, discussed and confronted to data of literature
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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 linkWe 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
