Heritage of the “Cast Iron Grandmother”: Narrative Versions of Kasli History
This article focuses on the production of Kasli castings in the 1930s–1940s (essays by N. Dobychin, M. Zuev-Ordynets, and P. Bazhov). The authors carry out a historical contextualisation of the sources referring to the travel notes of D. Mamin-Sibiryak (1887) and interviews with the inhabitants of Kasli obtained during an expedition to study the narrative landscapes of Ural cities (2021). The authors aim to comprehend the situation of alternative history with reference to the city of Kasli, which is set by options for describing the present, focused on the desired future. In the history of Kasli castings, the 1930s is considered both as a relevant present with the nearest future, and as a turn in the past favourable for local production, preserved in the memory of the Kasli people.
Methodologically, the research is based on multiscalar analysis with an emphasis on the interaction of different time and space scales. The article introduces materials of the State Archive of Administrations of Sverdlovsk Region related to the biography of N. Dobychin which has never been done previously, since it is his essay Living Cast Iron that is said to have played a decisive role in the revival of the production of artistic iron casting. The authors analyse texts about Kasli castings in terms of their possible influence, due to the scale of the placement platform (central or regional press, circulation, etc.) and the accuracy of compliance with the moment of cultural politics, reflected in the composition and motif structure of the text and the communication of an external or internal view of events. The essay, which influenced the local narrative about the fate of either dying or rising production, may have become a resource for mythologising the “long-lived” Ural craftsmanship in the words of the famous “cast-iron grandmother” of Bazhov. The judgments of today’s Kasli residents about the past and present of the city testify to a complex combination of pride and resentment towards their historical past and present
Genç Yetiskin Erkeklerde Kasli Olma Dürtüsü ve İslevsel Olmayan Yeme Davranislari ile İliskili Faktörlerin İncelenmesi
Amaç: Bu çalismada genç yetiskin erkeklerde kasli olma dürtüsü ve islevsel olmayan yeme davranislariyla iliskili faktörlerin incelenmesi amaçlanmistir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çevrimiçi ortamda Google Forms üzerinden gerçeklestirilen arastirmaya 18-35 yas araliginda olan 144 genç yetiskin erkek katilmistir. Veriler, Sosyodemografik Bilgi Formu, Görünüme Yönelik Sosyokültürel Tutumlar Ölçegi-4, Sosyal Medyada Fiziksel Görünüm Karsilastirma Ölçegi, Yeme Bozuklugu Degerlendirme Ölçegi ve Kasli Olma Dürtüsü Ölçegi ile toplanmistir. Verilerin analizi tanimlayici istatistikler, Pearson korelasyon analizi ve aracilik analizi kullanilarak yapilmistir. Bulgular: Korelasyon analizi sonuçlari arastirmanin degiskenlerinin birbiriyle anlamli iliskileri oldugunu göstermistir. Ancak iki model ayri ayri test edildiginde Instagram üzerinden kasli olmaya dair baski ile erkeklerde kasli olma dürtüsü ve islevsel olmayan yeme davranislarinda sosyal karsilastirmanin araci rolü olmadigi bulunmustur. Gelecek çalismalar için modele erkeklerin ideal beden algilarina iliskin farkli degiskenler ekleyerek modelin gelistirilmesi önerilmektedir. Sonuç: Arastirmanin sonuçlari Instagram üzerinden kasli olmaya dair baski ile erkeklerde kasli olma dürtüsü ve islevsel olmayan yeme davranislarinda sosyal karsilastirmanin araci rolü olmadigini göstermektedir. Çalisma klinik alan yazinda erkeklerde islevsel olmayan yeme davranisi tani ve tedavisi için baslangiç düzeyinde de olsa bir takim dolayli katkilarda bulunmustur.Objective: This study aimed to examine factors related to dysfunctional eating behaviors and the drive for muscularity among young adult men. Materials and Methods: 144 young adult men between the ages of 18-35 participated in the online surveys via Google Forms. Data were collected using Sociodemographic Information Form, Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Scale-4, Physical Appearance Comparison Scale in Social Media, Eating Disorder Rating Scale and Drive For Muscularity Scale. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis and mediation analysis were used for the analysis of the data. Results: The results of the correlation analysis showed that study variables had significant relationships with each other. According to the mediation analysis results when the two models were tested separately, social comparison had no mediating role in the relationship between pressure to be muscular on Instagram and the drive for muscularity and dysfunctional eating behaviors in men. For future researchers, it can be suggested that factors related to ideal body image for men can be added to model and revised. Conclusion: The results of the study suggest that social comparison does not have a mediating role in the pressure to be muscular on Instagram, drive for muscularity and dysfunctional eating behaviors in men. For clinical literatüre, this study made a contribution for dysfunctional eating among men for diagnosis and treatment as a beggining
Herit age of the “Cast Iron Grandmother”: Narrative Versions of Kasli History
Submitted: 07.12.2022. Accepted: 18.01.2024.Поступила в редакцию: 07.12.2022. Принята к печати: 18.01.2024.В центре внимания авторов находятся тексты о производстве каслинского литья 1930–1940-х гг.: очерки Н. Добычина, М. Зуева-Ордынца, П. Бажова. Их историческую контекстуализацию выполняют путевые заметки Д. Мамина-Сибиряка (1887) и материалы интервью с жителями Каслей, полученные в ходе изучения нарративных ландшафтов уральских городов (2021). Цель статьи заключается в осмыслении ситуации альтернативности истории на примере города Касли, которую задают варианты описания настоящего, ориентированного на желаемое будущее. 1930-е годы в истории каслинского литья рассматриваются и как актуальное настоящее с близким будущим, и как благоприятный для местного производства поворот в прошлом, сохранившийся в памяти каслинцев. Используется методологический ресурс мультискалярного анализа с акцентом на взаимодействии различных временных и пространственных масштабов. Вводятся в научный оборот материалы Государственного архива административных органов Свердловской области, связанные с биографией Н. Добычина, поскольку именно его очерку «Живой чугун» приписывается решающая роль в возрождении художественного производства. Тексты о каслинском литье анализируются на предмет их возможной влиятельности, обусловленной масштабом платформы размещения (центральная или региональная пресса, тиражность и др.) и точностью соответствия моменту культурной политики, отраженному в композиции и мотивной структуре текста, трансляции внешнего («чужого») или внутреннего («своего») взгляда на описываемые события. Очерк, оказавший влияние на локальный нарратив о судьбе то гибнущего, то возрождающегося производства, возможно, стал ресурсом для мифологизации «долговечного» уральского мастерства в словах знаменитой «чугунной бабушки» Бажова. Суждения нынешних каслинцев о прошлом и настоящем города свидетельствуют о сложном сочетании гордости и обиды за свое историческое прошлое и настоящее.This article focuses on the production of Kasli castings in the 1930s–1940s (essays by N.

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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
