Difendersi nei faccia a faccia: il ragionamento controfattuale nei discorsi dei leader politici
Questioning in court: Ascription of causality
Il modello di analisi dell'attribuzione implicita del linguaggio proposto da Semin e Fiedler riesce ad evidenziare come possa essere veicolato un messaggio implicito di attribuzione all'autore o alla vittima di un evento. questo modello viene applicato in questa ricerca sperimentale nelle domande poste durante l'interrogatorio di vittime e imputati in casi di processi per violenza sessual
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
Variations on the Author
“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
We 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
L’offerta personalizzata degli sfidanti
Based on 2008 ITANES post-electoral survey data, this chapter analyzes the presidentialization of electoral supply, which resulted not only from Silvio Berlusconi’s campaign, but also from that of the Democratic Party leader Walter Veltroni. Comparing the structures of their approval ratings, it finds that Veltroni’s popularity was politically more crosscutting while Berlusconi’s was more polarizing, thus reflecting their respective campaign strategies. Among the four image dimensions considered – energy, competence, empathy, integrity – the centre-right leader outperformed his opponent on the first one, but was overwhelmed on that of integrity
