Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

Konduktiv mehrfachtherapeutische Förderung nach Petö und Keil
No full textDie vorliegende Arbeit trägt den Titel: "Konduktiv mehrfachtehrapeutische Förderung nach Petö und Keil".
Die konduktiv mehrfachtherapeutische Förderung wurde von Helga Keil (weiter-)entwickelt und stellt eine multidimensionale Methode zur Förderung und Therapie von Menschen mit verschiedenen Behinderungen dar. Sie vereint das Wissen aus unterschiedlichen pädagogischen und therapeutischen Disziplinen (Logopädie, Ergotherapie, Physiotherapie, Sonder- und Heilpädagogik, ...) und ermöglicht so einen ganzheitlichen Blick auf das Klientel. Seit 1963 veranstaltet die Therapieinstitut Keil GmbH. jedes Jahr in Wien/Strebersdorf einen Intensiv-Therapiekurs für spastisch gelähmte Kinder, Jugendliche und junge Erwachsene nach der konduktiv mehrfachtherapeutischen Methode. Dabei werden die konduktiven Elemente um sportliche Aktivitäten wie Reiten, Schwimmen und Radfahren ergänzt, was gerade für Rollstuhlfahrer eine willkommene und oft lustvolle Abwechslung zu den üblichen Therapieangeboten darstellt.
Diese Diplomarbeit beschäftigt sich nun insbesondere mit den Auswirkungen dieses Therapiekurses auf das Selbstkonzept von Menschen mit cerebralen Bewegungsbeeinträchtigungen. Mit Hilfe des "Fragebogens zu Kompetenz- und Kontrollüberzeugungen" wurde eine kontrollierte Einzelfallstudie mit zwei Probanden im A-B-E-Design durchgeführt. Anhand der gewonnenen Daten konnte festgestellt werden, dass der Intensiv-Therapiekurs vor allem auf den Teilbereich der "fatalistischen Externalität" positive Auswirkungen zeigt. Als weiteres Ergebnis der Studie kann festgehalten werden, dass die intensive Förderung nur kurzfristig positive Effekte zeigt, wenn im Anschluss nicht weiter therapeutisch und pädagogisch gearbeitet wird. Somit kommt vor allem auch der Kontinuität in der konduktiven Förderung eine große Bedeutung zu
Characterization of the murine cytomegalovirus genes encoding the major DNA binding protein and the ICP18.5 homolog
No full textIn several herpesviruses the genes for the major DNA binding protein (MDBP), a putative assembly protein, the
glycoprotein B (gB), and the viral DNA polymerase (pol) coliocate. In murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV), two members
of this gene block, pol (Elliott, Clark, Jaquish, and Spector, 1991, Virology 185, 169-186) and gB (Rapp, Messerle,
BOhler, Tannheimer, Keil, and Koszinowski, 1992, J. Virol., 66,4399-4406) have been characterized. Here the two other
MCMV genes are characterized, the gene encoding the MDBP and the ICP18.5 homolog encoding a putative
assembly protein. Like in human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) the genes order is pol, gB, ICP18.5, and MDBP. The 4.2-kb
MDBP mRNA is expressed first in the early phase, whereas the 3.0-kb ICP18.5 mRNA is a late transcript. The open
reading frame of the MDBP gene has the capacity of encoding a protein of 1191 amino acids with a predicted molecular
mass of 131.7 kDa. The MCMV ICP18.5 ORF is translated into a polypeptide of 798 amino acids with a calculated
molecular mass of 89.1 kDa. Comparison of the amino acid sequences of the predicted proteins of MCMV with the
respective proteins of HCMV, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) reveals a striking
homology ranging from 72% (HCMV), 50% (EBV), to 45% (HSV-1) for the MDBP sequence and from 74% (HCMV), 51 %
(EBV), to 49% (HSV-1) for the ICP18.5 sequence. These results establish the elose relationship of the two cytomegaloviruses,
and underline the usefulness of the murine model for studies on the biology of the CMV infection
Pragmatic Case Studies as a Source of Unity in Applied Psychology
No full textTo unify or not to unify applied psychology: that is the question. In this article we review pendulum swings in the historical efforts to answer this question—from a comprehensive, positivist, “top-down,” deductive yes between the 1930s and the early 60s, to a postmodern no since then. A rationale and proposal for a limited, “bottom-up,” inductive yes in applied psychology is then presented, employing a case-based paradigm that integrates both positivist and postmodern themes and components. This paradigm is labeled “pragmatic psychology” and, its specific use of case studies, the “Pragmatic Case Study Method” (“PCS Method”). We call for the creation of peer-reviewed journal-databases of pragmatic case studies as a foundational source of unifying applied knowledge in our discipline. As one example, the potential of the PCS Method for unifying different angles of theoretical regard is illustrated in an area of applied psychology, psychotherapy, via the case of Mrs. B. The article then turns to the broader historical and epistemological arguments for the unifying nature of the PCS Method in both applied and basic psychology.Peer reviewe

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe 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
Imaging cortical activity following affective stimulation with a high temporal and spatial resolution
No full textKeil J, Adenauer H, Catani C, Neuner F. Imaging cortical activity following affective stimulation with a high temporal and spatial resolution. BMC Neuroscience. 2009;10(1):83.Background:The affective and motivational relevance of a stimulus has a distinct impact on cortical processing, particularly in sensory areas. However, the spatial and temporal dynamics of this affective modulation of brain activities remains unclear. The purpose of the present study was the development of a paradigm to investigate the affective modulation of cortical networks with a high temporal and spatial resolution. We assessed cortical activity with MEG using a visual steady-state paradigm with affective pictures. A combination of a complex demodulation procedure with a minimum norm estimation was applied to assess the temporal variation of the topography of cortical activity. Results: Statistical permutation analyses of the results of the complex demodulation procedure revealed increased steady-state visual evoked field amplitudes over occipital areas following presentation of affective pictures compared to neutral pictures. This differentiation shifted in the time course from occipital regions to parietal and temporal regions. Conclusion: It can be shown that stimulation with affective pictures leads to an enhanced activity in occipital region as compared to neutral pictures. However, the focus of differentiation is not stable over time but shifts into temporal and parietal regions within four seconds of stimulation. Thus, it can be crucial to carefully choose regions of interests and time intervals when analyzing the affective modulation of cortical activity
