Microstructural properties of lithium-added cement mortars subjected to alkali-silica reactions
No full textDemir, Ilhami/0000-0002-8230-4053; Sevim, Ozer/0000-0001-8535-2344Little comparative research has been done on the efficiency of lithium additives to reduce the alkali-silica reaction (ASR) expansion. To reduce the ASR effects of reactive aggregate, different mortar bars were obtained by adding lithium additives (Li2SO4, LiNO3, Li2CO3, LiBr and LiF) to the mixing water by the following mass percentages of cement: 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5% and 3%. The ASR expansions of the mortar bars at 2, 7 and 14 days were identified according to ASTM C 1260-14. The morphology of the specimens subject to the ASR effect was analysed using a scanning electron microscope, and their chemical composition was analysed by electron dispersion spectroscopy. Among all specimens, the lowest level of 14-day ASR expansion was obtained in mortar bars with 3% Li2CO3 additive

Variations on the Author
No full text“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

Representing assessments: Reply to McGrath and Ozer
No full textHofstee and Ten Berge (2004/this issue) present procedures based on an absolute conception of scales in personality assessment as distinct from the dominant interval-scale interpretation. On application, these procedures resulted in a contraction of a 5-dimensional structure into essentially I personality dimension. McGrath (2004/this issue) and Ozer (2004/this issue) comment on the various aspects of these procedures: the transformation of data onto a bipolar proportional scale, the adoption of the raw scores product average as an index of association, and raw scores principal component analysis. In reply to these comments, we emphasize that the central ingredient in our procedures is the interpretation of the midpoint on a bipolar scale as a threshold. We provide further arguments for that interpretation and demonstrate the robustness of the simplified structure under that central assumption. We acknowledge the comment that our conception does not fit in comparative contexts capitalizing on individual differences but argue that other contexts involving thresholds are relevant to the study of personality. We also acknowledge that item pools should be sufficiently homogeneous for scales to be meaningful

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
