Provincia di Grosseto. Schema Strutturale
Il lavoro costituisce uno degli esempi più significativi di questo tipo di pianificazione sperimentato dalla Regione Toscana. Privilegiando l’ascolto degli esponenti locali, si mettono a fuoco politiche in grado di valorizzare un territorio di eccezionale interesse ambientale. L’interpretazione del sistema ambientale e l’approfondimento, mediante interviste dirette, delle problematiche locali porta ad articolare il modello territoriale in più sub-sistemi di “ecologia antropica”, ove si propongono specifiche soluzioni di coordinamento.
Particolare attenzione viene posta nell’indirizzare il processo decisionale mediante grafici illustrativi appositamente studiati.
A tal fine il preliminare di piano viene diffuso in un fascicolo di agile consultazione ove le principali proposte vengono esposte in chiave divulgativa, alternando parti scritte a semplici grafici esplicativi
Studi per la ristrutturazione della Statale Aurelia nel territorio di Grosseto
L’articolo offre una sintesi grafica e concettuale dell’approccio interdisciplinare all'inserimento ambientale delle grandi infrastrutture applicato negli studi svolti dagli autori per la riorganizzazione del tratto maremmano del Corridoio Tirrenico
Tra Grosseto e Capalbio - Dossier Aurelia
La ricerca si articola in tre parti: indagini, proposte e valutazione delle proposte. La fase propositiva studia due diverse ipotesi di riassetto, per cui si definiscono tipi e zone di intervento all’interno di 26 aree campione. Il confronto fra le due proposte, elaborate con ampio ricorso alla prefigurazione grafica considera le ricadute sul sistema insediativo e sull’economia locale, alla piccola come alla grande scala, nonché gli aspetti percettivi e i costi di realizzazione
Effect of a visual distractor on line bisection.
Previous studies have shown that a flanking distractor produces a spatial bias during line bisection. In the present study, we investigated whether that bias depends on perceptual or motor components. Participants were asked to bisect a horizontal line, or to reach towards a dot, with or without vision of their hand. The line and the target could be flanked by a distractor. Movement trajectories and endpoints were consistently deviated away from the location of the distractor in the bisection task, but not in the reaching task, irrespectively of whether the participants had online visual feedback from their moving hand. It is suggested that flanking distractors influence perceptual localization of the subjective mid-point during line bisection
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
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
