Diritto e biologia comportamentale
La società si serve del diritto per indurre la gente ad assumere
comportamenti differenti rispetto a quelli che adotterebbe in assenza.
Tale proposito basilare pone il diritto in una condizione di stretta
dipendenza dalle profonde e imprescindibili conoscenze relative alle
molteplici cause del comportamento umano. Quanto più accurate sono
tali conoscenze tanto maggiore sarà la capacità di conseguire gli
obiettivi sociali che ci prefissiamo attraverso gli strumenti del diritto. In questo articolo, i Professori Jones e Goldsmith, sostengono che l’attuale sviluppo dei vari ambiti legati alla biologia comportamentale, ha contribuito in breve tempo a rendere obsoleti gli assunti sulla nascita dei comportamenti umani che si erano consolidati nel tempo. Secondo la loro opinione, la biologia comportamentale potrebbe migliorare l’efficacia e l’efficienza del diritto, perché permette di affinare la comprensione giuridica delle cause dei comportamenti umani.
La parte I esamina come e perché diritto e biologia comportamentale
si connettono. La parte II fornisce un’introduzione ai concetti chiave
della biologia comportamentale. La parte III identifica, esplora ed illustra un’ampia varietà di contesti nei quali la biologia comportamentale può tornare utile al diritto. La parte IV verte sulle problematiche che talvolta si obiettano in merito alla determinazione delle influenze biologiche sul comportamento umano
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
