Differential interference of body- and non-body-related representational conflicts on error and performance monitoring in flanker tasks
The performance monitoring system handles representational conflicts with the goal of reducing
errors. What remains unclear is whether and how the representational nature of a stimulus modulates
conflict resolution. To deal with this issue, we performed five experiments to measure the degree of
cognitive interference occurring in Flanker tasks and tested whether effects induced by body- and
non-body-related stimuli may change as a function of task requirements and affect conflict
processing. In Experiment1, conflicts elicited by hands/letters were used to activate typical competing
responses. In Experiment2, stimuli were perceptually matched for low-level features (e.g.,
target/flanker contrast). In Experiment3, no-go trials were added to increase conflict load and reveal
content-driven effects in inhibitory control. In Experiment 4, the onset of target/flanker competition
was set at two different delays to investigate conflict persistence during target processing. Finally, in
Experiment5, body- vs non-body-related stimuli were combined to measure content-driven effects
underlying conflict resolution. A multi-analysis approach to data was employed, combining linear
and Bayesian drift-diffusion models. Results show that body-related representations reduced
cognitive interference, a robust effect that was observed across all experiments. These findings
suggest that representations related to the body selectively engage the performance monitoring system
during conflict processin

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
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
