Los reflejos condicionados según Howard Scott Liddell (1895-1962)
Get PDFSi bien Howard Scott Liddell no forma parte de las figuras más importantes de la psicología estadounidense, realizó contribuciones significativas al estudio de los reflejos condicionados y las neurosis experimentales. Influido por el endocrinólogo escocés Sutherland Simpson, Liddell comenzó a estudiar el aprendizaje del laberinto en ovejas y cabras a las que se les había retirado quirúrgicamente la glándula tiroides. En estos experimentos, no se encontraron diferencias significativas en el aprendizaje del laberinto entre los animales tiroidectomizados y sus controles. Ello obligó a Liddell a buscar otros métodos y comenzó a utilizar la técnica de los refl ejos condicionados. En 1924, Liddell fundó y dirigió uno de los primeros laboratorios estadounidenses dedicado al estudio de este fenómeno en rumiantes. Nuestro trabajo, explorará los experimentos de Liddell que utilizaron esta técnica, así como sus ideas acerca de la naturaleza traumatizante de la misma. Finalizaremos mostrando que aunque Liddell utilizó el método de los reflejos condicionados nunca apoyó las propuestas fisiológicas realizadas por Pavlov. Muy al contrario, la base teórica de las ideas de Liddell estuvo en la teorías de W. B. Cannon.Although Howard Scott Liddell is not among the leading figures of American Psychology, his contributions to the study of conditioned reflex and experimental neurosis were significant. Under the influence of the Scottish endocrinologist Sutherland Simpson, Liddell started to study maze learning in sheep and goats without thyroids gland. These experiments did not find significant differences in learning between thyroidectomised and normal animals. Therefore, Liddell turned to the conditioned reflex method, and in 1924 he founded and directed one of the first American laboratories dedicated to the study of conditioned reflex in ruminants. In this paper, we will explore Liddell’s experiments and his ideas about the traumatizing nature of this technique. Finally, we will show that Liddell’s use of reflex conditioned method did not commit him to endorse Pavlov’s physiological ideas. On the contrary, Liddell’s ideas were based on the theory defended by W. B. Cannon.Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia SEJ2006-14090-C02-01/PSI
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Get PDFWe 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
