Il ruolo dei movimenti oculari nella percezione del movimento
No full textLa letteratura non ha ancora chiarito quale sia il ruolo dei movimenti oculari nella percezione del movimento in assenza di possibilità di inseguimento degli stimoli. In questo studio abbiamo registrato i movimenti oculari di quaranta partecipanti durante un compito di «motion coherence» che impediva l’inseguimento, per indagare se e in che modo i movimenti oculari contribuissero all’accuratezza nella percezione del movimento. L’abilità di discriminare la direzione del movimento è stata studiata in funzione della velocità dei movimenti oculari misurati mediante videoculografo a infrarossi. I risultati confermano che la velocità dei movimenti oculari predice l’accuratezza nella percezione del movimento. Ciò fa supporre che sussista un processo iniziale che accomuna i sistemi atti a governare i movimenti oculari e la percezione del movimento
Reaction time distribution analysis of spatial correspondence effects
No full textSince 1994, group reaction-time (RT) distribution analyses of spatial correspondence effects
have been used to evaluate dynamics of the spatial Simon effect, a benefit of correspondence of
stimulus-location information with response location for tasks in which stimulus location is
irrelevant. We review the history and justification for analyzing group RT distributions and
clarify which conditions result in the Simon effect decreasing across the distribution and which
lead to flat or increasing functions. Although the standard left-right Simon effect typically yields
a function for which the effect decreases as RT increases, in most other task variations the Simon
effect remains stable or increases across the RT distribution. Studies that have used other means
of evaluating temporal dynamics of the Simon effect provide converging evidence that the
changes in the Simon effect across the distribution are due mainly to temporal activation
properties, an issue that has been a matter of some dispute
L'importanza degli “altri”: come il contesto relazionale influenza il sistema motorio
No full textSecondo la prospettiva dell’embodied cognition, linguaggio e azione sarebbero
connessi da un forte legame bidirezionale. Scopo del presente esperimento è indagare
in che modo il sistema motorio venga modulato durante la comprensione di frasi
che fanno riferimento ad un contesto «relazionale», in cui cioè si mettono in relazione il
sé, un altro agente e un oggetto connotato emotivamente (es. «L’oggetto è bello/brutto,
portalo a te/dallo ad un altro). I risultati suggeriscono che la simulazione motoria è influenzata,
oltre che dalle proprietà emotive dell’oggetto descritto, anche dagli elementi
sociali che caratterizzano il contesto cui le frasi fanno riferimento
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
