Perspectives at the Edge of Experiencing in Clinical Supervision
No full textIn this chapter I describe doctoral research into counselling and psychotherapy supervision, investigating meanings attributed to phenomena accompanying significant events that challenged therapists’ and supervisors’ sense-making, their world view and theoretical approaches in psychotherapy practice (Nolan, 2008a, 2008b). I set out to see how supervisors work with what might be described as ‘exceptional human experiences’ (Palmer, 1999; Palmer & Braud, 2002), ‘non-ordinary’ occurrences (Grof & Grof, 1989) or perceptions not seeming to fit within ‘rational’ scientific knowledge of what ‘should’ be, considering how practitioners manage clinical material that transcends prior perceptions of ‘reality’ and meaning. However, the phrase ‘non-ordinary’ implies out-of-the-ordinary events and experiences that others may simply see as ordinary and perfectly normal (Harvey, 2003; Moodley &West, 2005). Insights are explored into the managing of phenomena and negotiating meanings within relational complexity; key features that impact on supervisory relationships are identified

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
Researching Therapy, Culture and Spirituality
No full textIt will be apparent from the other chapters in this book some of the challenges faced by researchers exploring this territory or landscape. It is now increasingly accepted, certainly within qualitative research that the researcher is part of the research process and that one of the signs of good qualitative research is reading about the researcher and their relationship with the research. The same is true but less well discussed for quantitative research (Lennie & West, 2010). Researchers are making less claims to objectivity within qualitative research and focusing much more on critical subjectivity using reflexivity (Etherington, 2004) to explore their relationship with the research process. The recognition of what one of us (WW) likes to call the researcher’s stance (in contrast to the modernist use of bias) is particularly useful with research into therapy and especially when it also involves culture and/or spirituality. We all have a stance or rather stances in relation to culture and spirituality. These need to be teased out before entering into any research project and need to be re-visited at regular intervals during the course of the project
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
