Cosa prova il cervello. Scritti di neuropsicoanalisi
No full textDa quando è stato coniato, nel 1999, il termine 'neuropsicoanalisi' ha suscitato un ampio dibattito nel mondo scientifico, nonostante l'inizio dei rapporti Ira psicoanalisi e neuroscienze risalisse a molti anni prima. L'ambizione di questa disciplina che getta ponti Ira due approcci per qualcuno ritenuti antitetici, è quella di indagare cosa prova il cervello, quasi sempre oggetto, piti raramente soggetto, di ricerca. La neuropsicoanalisi investe i campi più disparati: la psicoanalisi, certo, ina anche i disturbi neurologici, il sogno e la coscienza. Numerose sono le implicazioni filosofiche di un approccio che si muove al confine Ira mente e cervello e ne esamina le interazioni. Questo volume fornisce un'introduzione alla materia e scandaglia le sue implicazioni. Mark Solms, che ne è uno dei pionieri, guida il lettore alla scoperta delle diverse sfaccettature di una disciplina di confine. Nella prima parte analizza il ruolo della psiche nella neuropsicologia, nella seconda fornisce alcuni esempi clinici di ricerca neuropsicoana-litica, mentre nella terza traccia Lina panoramica delle applicazioni del metodo ai disturbi psichiatrici, in particolare depressione e dipendenze. La quarta parte torna sulla prospettiva freudiana del sogno, aggiornandola alla luce delle recenti scoperte neuroscientifiche. Il volume si conclude con una sezione dedicata alle implicazioni filosofiche della disciplina, ovvero al monismo dal duplice aspetto percettivo, perno attorno al quale ruota, secondo l'espressione di David Chalmers "il problema 'difficile' della coscienza", che l'autore cerca di risolvere attraverso una distinzione preliminare fra il soggetto e gli oggetti della coscienza stessa
Psychoanalysis and neurosciences: Freud’s theory of dreams in the light of modern scientific research by Mark Solms and perspectives of psychoanalysis in the neuroscientific world by Eric Kandel
No full textFreud předpokládal budoucí integraci psychoanalýzy a neurobiologického zkoumání lidské psychiky. Dle některých psychoanalytiků i neurovědců možná nastal čas vzájemné přibližování zahájit. Neuropsychoanalytik Mark Solms se pokouší prověřovat psychoanalytické teorie – zde teorii snů - moderními neurovědeckými metodami. Neurobiolog Eric Kandel se snaží vytyčit psychoanalýze cíle, jejichž naplnění se jeví pro integraci do neurověd nezbytné.Freud predicted the future integration of psychoanalysis and neurobiological research of the human mind. Some psychoanalysts and neuroscientists thinkt hat the time for reintegration is coming now. Neuropsychoanalyst, Mark Solms, tries to verify psychoanalytical theories – here the theory of dreams – by modern neuroscientific methods. Neuroscientist, Eric Kandel, features aims for psychoanalysis, which are unvoidable for integration into neuroscience.Radan Březina, psychiatric, psychotherapeutic a psychoanalytic practice, Prague, Czech Republic e-mail: [email protected]
Revisiting the concept of drive from affective neuroscience (Panksepp) to neuropsychoanalysis (Solms): A comment on Mark Solms’ paper|La rivisitazione del concetto di pulsione dalle neuroscienze affettive (Panksepp) alla neuropsicoanalisi (Solms): commento all’articolo di Mark Solms
No full textMark Solms' revision of the concept of drive represents the latest in a series of his indepth reviews of the most fundamental Freudian concepts. The movement of neuropsychoanalysis begun in 2000 with the first Congress focused precisely on a neuroscientific definition of affects and emotions. In 2013, Solms proposed a substantial and profound modification of Freud's structural model, motivating his theses which argue that the instinctual id can only be conscious. In the current paper, Solms (2021a) reaffirms and re-evaluates the centrality of drive theory in psychoanalysis and neuroscience as a starting point for understanding conscious and unconscious phenomena, in normality as well in pathology
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
