    Leitbilder einer gesundheitsfördernden Stadtentwicklung

    Full text link
    Leitbilder bieten die Möglichkeit, gesellschaftliche Interessen zu bündeln und in Prozesse der Stadtentwicklung einzubringen. Gesundheitliche Ziele nahmen in der Stadtplanung bereits früh, beispielsweise in der Gartenstadtbewegung oder auch in der Charta von Athen, eine wichtige Rolle ein. Aufbauend auf der Ottawa-Charta zur Gesundheitsförderung der WHO werden in Stadtplanung und Städtebau zunehmend menschliche Gesundheit und Wohlbefinden in den Mittelpunkt öffentlicher Entscheidungsprozesse gerückt. Dieser Artikel geht insbesondere der Frage nach, ob Gesundheitsförderung als Leitbild des Städtebaus und der Stadtentwicklung geeignet oder bereits etabliert ist. Hierzu wird zunächst auf die Begriffe "Leitbild" und "Gesundheitsförderung" eingegangen. Im Anschluss werden historische und aktuelle Berührungen beider Bereiche diskutiert sowie praktische Umsetzungsansätze exemplarisch vorgestellt. Als konsekutive Herausforderungen schließlich werden gesellschaftliche Legitimation und politische Realisierbarkeit angesprochen.General principles offer the opportunity to bundle societal interests and to integrate them into processes of urban planning and development. Health targets already played an important role in urban planning at an early stage, such as in the Garden City Movement or in the Athens Charter. Based on the WHO Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, human health and well-being are increasingly considered as part of public decision-making processes in urban development and planning. The main objective of this article is to explore the extent to which health promotion is appropriate or has already been established as a general principle for urban development and planning. For this purpose, the terms "general principle" and "health promotion" need first to be considered. In the following, historical and current interrelations of both areas are discussed and examples of practical implementation approaches are presented. Finally, societal legitimacy and political feasibility are addressed as consecutive challenges

    Gesundheitsförderung - ein aktuelles Thema für Raumplanung und Gesundheitswesen. Einführung

    Full text link
    Lebenswerte und somit auch gesunde Städte sind zentraler Bestandteil einer nachhaltigen Raumentwicklung. Urbane Gesundheit knüpft an viele aktuelle Diskussionen zu verschiedenen Rahmentrends im gesellschaftlichen und politischen Raum an, die zunächst kurz angerissen werden. Die Schnittstelle von räumlicher Planung und Gesundheitswissenschaft und -praxis näher zu beleuchten, war die Aufgabe eines inter- und transdisziplinären Arbeitskreises der ARL, der sich mit unterschiedlichen Perspektiven auf Begriffe und deren Verständnis, mit aktuellen Themenfeldern und Planungsebenen sowie Prozessen der Planung befasst hat. Dieser Sammelband enthält Ergebnisse aus der dreijährigen Arbeit des Arbeitskreises zu gesundheitsfördernden Stadtregionen für eine Leserschaft aus Planung und Gesundheitswesen in Praxis und Wissenschaft. Die Beiträge wurden überwiegend im Team aus Praxis-Wissenschaft sowie Planung-Gesundheit verfasst und punktuell durch weitere wissenschaftliche Expertise ergänzt.Liveable and thus healthy cities are a central component of sustainable spatial development. Urban health is linked to many current discussions on various social and political roles, which are first briefly assessed. An inter- and transdisciplinary working group of the ARL has dealt with different perspectives on concepts and their understandings, with current topics and planning levels, and with processes of urban development, and aimed to scrutinise the interface between spatial planning and health sciences and practices. This volume contains the results of three years of the working group on health-promoting urban regions for a readership from planning and public health in both practice and academia. The contributions were mainly written in cooperation between scientists and practitioners from the different disciplines and supplemented by additional scientific expertise

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    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

    Full text link
    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

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We 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

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We 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
