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
Strength and power analysis in half squat exercise with suspension training tools
No full textAim: The study aims to verify the load created by performing a squat, with both feet and with one, with
suspension training equipment, on the parameters of strength and power compared to squats without equipment;
furthermore, it aims to quantify any performance differences of the two limbs in muscle power, during the
bipodalic execution with and without the aid of the suspension training instrument.
Methods: 24 players, youth premier league.
Results: statistically significant differences have emerged in performing bipodalic squats with or without the
device, regarding the peak force in the eccentric phase (p <0.01) and the concentric (p <0.0005), the average
force (in eccentric and concentric phases); in monopodalic squats there are significant differences for peak power
and average power (p <0.0005) during both the eccentric and concentric phases.
Significant differences have been found between performance with and without the device in peak power,
(concentric phase, one-legged) for the left limb (p <0.05); in bipodalic squats there are significant differences
between the two limbs for peak power and peak time, both in eccentric (p <0.05) and concentric phases (p
<0.0005).
Conclusion: this study has emerged as the suspension training tool causes a significant decrease of body weight,
of the parameters of force to the ground and the increases in terms of power expressed, but also a significant
decrease in terms of power of the differences between two limb
La danza nei processi educativi della disabilità mentale
No full textL'articolo presenta un'esperienza didattica della durata di 14 lezioni, inerente l'attività fisica adattata, con particolare riferimento alla danza, in cui i contenuti per il gruppo-classe sono sistematicamente adattati per l'allieva disabile. La verifica è attuata mediante i descrittori dell'apprendimento motorio. I risultati evidenziano una positiva influenza degli adattamenti motori per l'allieva disabile (pre-test e post-test)
Evoluzione delle abilità grosso-motorie e dei comportamenti socio-affettivi di un bambino autistico. Studio di un caso
No full textL'attività fisica adattata promuove l'apprendimento motorio e l'evoluzione dei comportamenti socio-affettivi. Scopo dello studio è quello di verificare l'evoluzione delle abilità grosso-motorie e di analizzare l'influenza di diversi tipi di rinforzo sullo sviluppo di interazioni sociali e comportamenti socio-affettivi di un bambino autistico e un gruppo di pari senza disabilità. E' stato utilizzato il caso singolo con trattamento alternato. Per raggiungere gli obiettivi dell'area motoria e socio-affettiva sono state programmate 24 lezioni: 8 lezioni (4 per il test , 4 per il retest) per la somministrazione del test TGMD (Ulrich, 1985), 8 in situazione baseline con l'utilizzo di giochi a coppie, in gruppo ed in squadre (calcio), 8 lezioni con le stesse attività ma con l'introduzione di rinforzi fisici, visivi e verbali. Le attività ludiche proposte hanno consentito all'alunno autistico di acquisire abilità motorie fondamentali e di sviluppare appropriati comportamenti socio-affettivi sin in termini qualitativi che quantitativi soprattutto durante l'introduzione della variabile (rinforzi)
