Caligus schelegeli Ho & Lin 2003
No full textCaligus schelegeli Ho & Lin, 2003 Syn: C. pagrosomi schelegeli Ho & Lin, 2003 Differential diagnosis: Female genital complex and abdomen combined about 1.6 times longer than cephalothorax; body length 3.10–3.88 mm. Male body length 2.28–2.84 mm. Female genital complex longer than wide, lacking distinct postero-lateral lobes: abdomen 2 -segmented, first segment about 2.0 times longer than second. Male abdomen 2 -segmented; second segment about 1.6 times longer than first. Female antenna with distal claw weakly curved. Post-antennal process curved in both sexes. Additional process present between post-antennal process and base of antenna in female. Posterior process of maxillule with tiny blunt accessory process in male. Sternal furca of female with incurved tines and with small rounded processes on body surface either side of furca. Female maxilliped with smooth myxal margin. Male maxilliped with large, acutely-pointed process on myxal margin, opposing tip of claw. Exopod of leg 1 with seta at inner distal angle shorter than segment but longer than longest of distal spines; posterior margin with single, naked vestigial seta. Outer margin of second endopodal segment of leg 2 ornamented with typical setules. Leg 4 with robust first exopodal segment bearing marginal setule, spine extending beyond base of proximal outer spine of second segment; second segment with distal spines well developed, increasing slightly in length from outer to inner. Material examined: none Distribution: Taiwan. Hosts: Carangidae: Megalaspis cordyla (Linnaeus, 1758); Mugilidae: Mugil cephalus Linnaeus, 1758; Scatophagidae: Scatophagus argus (Linnaeus, 1766); Siganidae: Siganus fuscescens (Houttuyn, 1782); Sparidae: Acanthopagrus schlegelii (Bleeker, 1854); Terapontidae: Terapon jarbua (Forsskål, 1775). Host data from Ho & Lin (2003). Remarks: C. schelegeli is closely related to C. haemulonis but differs in having a genital complex plus abdomen that, combined, are about 1.6 times longer than the cephalothorax, rather than 1.3 times longer as in C. haemulonis.Published as part of Boxshall, Geoff A & El-Rashidy, Hoda H., 2009, A review of the Caligus productus species group, with the description of a new species, new synonymies and supplementary descriptions, pp. 1-26 in Zootaxa 2271 on pages 19-20, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19095
Caligus dactylus Ho, Lin & Chang 2007
No full textCaligus dactylus Ho, Lin & Chang, 2007 Ho et al. (2007) described C. dactylus as a new species based on material of both sexes collected from Dactyloptena peterseni (Nyström, 1887) landed in Taiwan. They made detailed comparisons between their new species and C. priacanthi Pillai, 1961, but did not compare it with C. dactylopteni Uma Devi & Shyamasundari, 1981 described from material taken from another species of flying gurnard, Dactyloptena orientalis (Cuvier, 1829), caught at Waltair on the coast of India (Uma Devi & Shyamasundari, 1981). The descriptions match in every respect and there are no significant differences between these two species. We therefore propose to treat C. dactylus Ho, Lin & Chang, 2007 as a junior subjective synonym of C. dactylopteni Uma Devi & Shyamasundari, 1981.Published as part of Hayes, Polly, Justine, Jean-Lou & Boxshall, Geoffrey A., 2012, The genus Caligus Müller, 1785 (Copepoda: Siphonostomatoida): two new species from reef associated fishes in New Caledonia, and some nomenclatural problems resolved, pp. 21-39 in Zootaxa 3534 on page 32, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.21082
Psychometric Evaluation of the Chinese Version of the Theory of Mind Inventory for Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder
No full textAbstract
Date Presented 4/1/2017
This study developed a Chinese version of the Theory of Mind Inventory (ToMI–C) for assessing theory of mind (ToM) performance in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in actual social contexts. The ToMI–C will facilitate the evaluation of the ToM of Taiwanese children with ASD accurately.

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
The Relationship Between Pretend Play and Playfulness in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder
No full textAbstract
Date Presented 3/30/2017
This study explored the relationship between pretend play and playfulness in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Our findings suggest that it is important to assist children with ASD to engage in pretend play, for doing so could promote their internal experience of playfulness.

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
