    Il volume illustra l’attività condotta all’interno dei Laboratori del disegno tenuti presso la Facoltà del Design del Politecnico di Milano. Prendendo a riferimento l’a.a. 2000/2001, esso non si configura come testo didattico quanto, piuttosto, come rendiconto di una sperimentazione didattica che ha progressivamente portato ad affiancare all’insegnamento tradizionale del disegno forme di rappresentazione non grafiche (fotografia, modellistica ecc), per approdare, attraverso gli anni, all’attuale formula del laboratorio multidisciplinare. Collocati al primo anno del corso di studi, tali laboratori propongono pertanto un approccio complessivo ai problemi della rappresentazione, privilegiando una metodologia didattica di tipo induttivo e tenendo conto delle specificità che l’insegnamento del disegno presenta in una scuola di design rispetto ad una facoltà di architettura o di ingegneria

    This note is a discussion of the article “Bayesian model selection based on proper scoring rules” by A. P. Dawid and M. Musio, to appear in Bayesian Analysis. While appreciating the concepts behind the use of proper scoring rules, we point out here some possible practical difficulties with the advocated approach

    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
