Un programma di psicoterapie brevi a termine prefissato”
No full textData l'eterogeneità delle domande poste al servizio pubblico e alla varietà di psicopatologie, l'assegnazione al programma di psicoterapie brevi è necessariamente preceduto da un'accurata psicodiagnosi. Tale valutazione psicodiagnostica iniziale è basata su di 11il0 o due
colloqui clinici e sulla somministrazione di tests. Tale materiale viene poi elaborato accuratamente al fine di delineare un'ipotesi psicodiagnostica e un progetto terapeutico. Nell'ottica di un rapporto paritario con il paziente di collaborazione reciproca basata sulla condivisione di tutto le informazioni e decisioni terapeutiche, tale profilo diagnostico viene restituito al paziente nel corso di uno o più incontri e viene analizzato e discusso insieme
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
DATA INTENSIVE REVIEW MINING FOR SENTIMENT CLASSIFICATION ACROSS HETEROGENEOUS DOMAINS
No full textThe automatic detection of orientation and
emotions in texts is becoming increasingly important in the Web
2.0 scenario. There is a considerable need for innovative
techniques and tools capable of identifying and detecting the
attitude of unstructured text. The paper tackles two crucial
aspects of the sentiment classification problem: first, the
computational complexity of the deployed framework; second,
the ability of the framework itself to operate effectively in
heterogeneous commercial domains. The proposed approach
adopts empirical learning to implement the sentimentclassification
technology, and uses a distance-based predictive
model to combine computational efficiency and modularity. A
suitably designed semantic-based metric is the cognitive core that
measures the distance between two user reviews, according to the
sentiment they communicate. The framework ultimately nullifies
the training process; at the same time, it takes advantage of a
classification procedure whose computational cost increases
linearly when the training corpus increases. To attain an
objective measurement of the actual accuracy of the sentiment
classification method, a campaign of tests involved a pair of
complex, real-world scoring domains; the goal was to compare
the predicted sentiment scores with actual scores provided by
human assessors. Experimental results confirmed that the overall
approach attained satisfactory performances in terms of both
cross-domain classification accuracy and computational
efficiency
Photovoltaic and battery systems sizing optimization for ultra-fast charging station integration
Full text linkThe installation of Ultra-Fast Charging stations (UFCS) is of vital importance to enhance and support the global shift to electric mobility. However, since UFCSs require a huge amount of energy in short period of time, their integration with the energy transmission and distribution grids will lead to a considerable number of technical challenges. To mitigate these negative aspects the incorporation of a Photovoltaic (PV) power plant and a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in the station systems seems crucial. In this paper an optimization study to find the size of these additional components is carried out. The final aim is to find their optimal dimensions to make the integration the most convenient as possible from an economic point of view. To achieve such a purpose, a single-objective optimization problem is simulated. The objective function aims to maximize the Net Present Value (NPV) of the overall charging station. The single-objective function is optimized through a genetic algorithm (GA) and the optimization toolbox embedded in the MATLAB software has been used to run the proposed optimization. The results highlight how the configuration complemented with the PV plant and the BESS is better from a technical-economic perspective. As a matter of fact, the profitability of such UFCS will be 7.5 % higher than the solution without additional components
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
