La réception des conversations quotidiennes. Communication ordinaire et normativité sociale
No full textThe reception of everyday conversation is a question that has not much been explored, neither in communication studies nor in sociology of interaction. This paper presents and conceptualizes what would constitute different moments of that said individual reception, starting from a specific material, that of conversation narratives. Twenty persons from diverse social backgrounds reported all the conversations they had the past seven days in a debriefing with the researcher. These accounts are telling us that the reception process is taking place ahead, in action and presence, and afterwards the conversation is held. Furthermore, we are presenting dimensions of the conversational reception that are speaking of its collective dimension, its immediacy, and its interaction with the internal conversation of interlocutors. This process is taking a constitutive part of ordinary socialization, of everyday intersubjective relations and of social normativity
Parler en amour et parler de l’amour : Normativité relationnelle et conversations quotidiennes
No full textUne part significative de nos échanges et interactions quotidiennes est ménagée à la question de l’amour et des rapports amoureux. C’est en effet par l’interaction et la conversation quotidienne que l’on entre en relation, que l’on parle de notre relation, que l’on parle des situations des autres, etc. À l’aide d’une méthodologie novatrice, le débriefing conversationnel, nous avons eu l’occasion de nous pencher sur les thématiques prégnantes de la normativité et de l’individualité contemporaine présentes dans les récits de conversation de participants variés. Nous proposons de présenter nos résultats de recherche selon trois moments de l’interaction qui ressortent de notre terrain d’enquête : 1) Comment parle-t-on de l’amour ? 2) Comment parle-t-on en amour ? et finalement : 3) Comment reçoit-on ces conversations en amour et sur l’amour ? Nous aimerions ainsi mieux comprendre comment et de quelles manières les expériences de sociabilité contemporaines contribuent à construire les normes amoureuses.A significant part of our daily discussions and interactions relates to the question of love and romantic relationships. In fact, it is through interactions and daily conversations that we engage in a relationship, that we talk about our relationship, and about others’ situations, etc. Using an innovative methodology, that of conversational debriefing, we have had the opportunity to reflect on the significant themes of normativity and contemporary individuality that were present in various participants’ accounts of conversations. We propose to present our findings according to three instances of the interaction that stand out in our research area : 1) How does one talk about love ? 2) How does one talk when in love ? and finally : 3) How does one treat these conversations about love when in love ? Thus, we’d like to further our understanding of how and in which ways contemporary experiences of sociability contribute to constructing romantic standards.Una parte significativa de nuestros intercambios e interacciones cotidianas está asociada a la cuestión del amor y de las relaciones amorosas. Es en efecto a través de la interacción y de la conversación cotidiana que se entra en relación, que se habla acerca de nuestra relación, que se habla acerca de las situaciones de los otros, etc. Por medio del análisis conversacional, una metodología innovadora, tuvimos la ocasión de centrarnos en temáticas significativas de la normatividad y de la individualidad contemporáneas, presentes en los relatos de conversaciones de una variedad de participantes. Aquí proponemos presentar los resultados de la investigación según tres momentos de la interacción que surgen de nuestro terreno de investigación : 1) ¿Cómo se habla acerca del amor ? 2) ¿Cómo se habla estando enamorado ? y 3) ¿Cómo se perciben esas conversaciones acerca del amor y cuando se está enamorado ? Quisiéramos así tener una mejor comprensión acerca de cómo y de qué maneras las experiencias de sociabilidad contemporáneas contribuyen a construir las normas amorosas
« Ça reste encore mystérieux pour moi » : récits et expériences du genre chez les personnes autistes
No full textThis article focuses on the experiences of gender in the narratives of autistic people and their entourage. The social category of gender would make less subjective sense for autistic people because of an alternative relationship to learned social norms. We analyzed interviews conducted with autistic people, their relatives, clinicians and blogs. In the accounts, autistic people describe themselves as impervious to social, and therefore gender, norms. Signs of gender atypia in childhood are often posited in their accounts as precursors to the diagnosis to come: the relationship to gender and society is described by them as an intersection of dissonant experiences. Female autism is described as a phenotype, a kind of autism in itself. Thus, these experiences testify to the impossibility of disentangling (or at least distinguishing completely) the interweaving of the experiences of autism and gender
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
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
