Variations on the Author
No full text“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
Unconscious semantic priming from pictures
No full textThree experiments examined the effects of unconsciously presented picture primes on semantic categorization and naming responses to both word and picture targets. Picture naming and word categorization responses to targets were faster and more accurate when the picture primes belonged to the same semantic category as the targets, so called priming effect. No priming was found when subjects performed a word reading task. When priming was evident, no difference was found between responses to targets that were nominally identical to primes (e.g. the picture of a lion followed by either the word LION or the picture of a lion) compared with nominally different targets from the same semantic category as the primes (e.g. the picture of an ELEPHANT followed by either the word LION or the picture of a lion). Responding did not differ significantly from chance when subjects were asked to categorize the primes as natural objects vs. artifacts or as meaningful vs. meaningless objects in three distinct forced-choice unspeeded tasks

“Fit for nursing?” A qualitative analysis of disabled registered general nurses’ and other health professionals’ views on health and illness in relation to nursing employment.
No full textThe employment of registered general nurses (RGNs) is underpinned by management’s
need for economic utility in that the cost of salaries must be reconciled with the need to
meet the demands inherent in service provision. Using grounded theory, interviews
captured the experience of physically disabled RGNs, who use the phrase ‘physically
disabled’ to describe themselves. Their collective experience was then compared with nondisabled
RGNs working in the clinical areas of general medical wards, general surgical
wards, and day case units, situated in three district general hospitals. Data collection was by
partial participant observation, and interviews. The data revealed that both nurseinterviewee
groups share an understanding of the meaning of health and illness. Both the
physically disabled and non-disabled RGNs manipulate working time to take unauthorised
breaks in order to ‘accommodate tiredness’ and ‘stamina lack’. ‘Accommodating need’ is
the identified basic social process (BSP) and ‘pacing’ is the identified core category. RGNs
distinguish between using a ‘public’ voice and a ‘private’ voice. In respect of a physically
disabled RGN ‘doing nursing’, the data uncovered stigma relating to a spoiled identity.
Theoretical sampling interviews with senior nurse managers, occupational health doctors,
and trade union officials (termed ‘elite groups’), reflected the data findings of both the
physically disabled, and non-disabled RGNs, in identifying the factors limiting the
employability of physically disabled RGNs. Moreover, data from the elite group interviews
revealed the importance of economic utility, in that management has to take account of
diminishing returns. This is the crux of the employment issue. ‘Maintaining organisational
pace’ is the generated grounded theory, and was confirmed by aligning data to the
established literature on Labour Process Theory (LPT) in a supplementary theoretical
sensitivity validation process
Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
