[Indices of treatment needs in orthodontics: the applicability of the DAI (Dental Aesthetic Index)]. FT Indici di necessita di trattamento in ortodonzia: l'applicabilita del DAI (Dental Aesthetic Index).
No full textThe objective assessment of esthetic impairment and relative psychosocial handicap for unacceptable dental aspect (useful for characterizing the need of treatment), could be satisfied by an index that measures each individual's occlusal trait and the psychological impact of the same. An index with these characteristics was suggested by Cons and Jenny, already since 1985. This is an index (DAI: Dental Aesthetic Index) designed specifically to measure dental esthetics, based on esthetic standards socially defined and focused through an extensive and finalized search. Therefore this index assesses the social acceptability of the dental appearance based on the public perception of dental esthetics. The authors, in this work, indicate as measuring the objective traits of occlusion and arriving to final score trough simple calculation. This score provides severity levels of esthetic, psychologic and functional impairment relative to dental aspect in examination
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
