Employing content analysis & crowd-sourcing to revise randomised controlled trials patient information leaflets
No full textThe poor readability of patient information leaflets (PILs) to help recruit people into research studies has been a serious concern for the Health Research Authority during the last 2 decades. Multiple independent studies have reported serious issues with almost all documents intended to inform patients or general audiences. The results of these studies have been considered by UK medical institutions and a series of guidelines developed to improve the quality and readability of PILs intended for inviting patients to randomised controlled trials (RCTs). Even with this focus and some improvements in patient leaflets, most of the current documents intended for this purpose are still considered too complex to be understood by public audiences. Meanwhile, several techniques have addressed the issue of measuring text readability. This thesis analyses the utility of several of these techniques to identify the sentences that are too hard to understand when employed via a webtool to help PIL authors identify and correct PIL readability issues: a) readability indices that associate text characteristics with the US school grade needed to understand the document, b) the Cloze procedure (identifying specific words that are not understood by the participants by removing words and asking participants to complete the sentences), c) sentiment and content analysis to identify and associate comments from public participants reviewing PILs with specific sections of the documents, and d) online crowdsourcing to review and validate sentences that are too hard to be understood by public audiences. The first study explored associations between PIL text characteristics and recruitment rates to the RCT to which they applied. The second studied feedback given by local public participants asked to revise PILs containing serious readability issues. The third study contained several sub-studies, each assessing the effects of the previously mentioned techniques on the identification, revision and validation of readability issues present in the PILs by an online crowd recruited using Mechanical Turk. This thesis contributes to our knowledge about employing content analysis and online crowdsourcing techniques to help authors of PIL for RCTs to identify, revise and validate sentences that are too hard to be understood by public audiences
Reges Criniti Visigothorum
No full textResumen. — Las monarquias merovingias y la realeza visigoda conocieron caminos divergentes en sus intentas de afirmación soberana. La primera triunfó al establecerse sólidamente desde tiempos de Childerico y Clodoveo (486-51 1). La segunda no logró superar los obstáculos interpuestos a sus propósitos. No obstante, entre la ascension al trono de Leovigildo (568) y la muerte de Chindasvinto (653), la monarquía visigótica pudo desafiar las limitaciones queridas a su independencia. Fiel reflejo de su momentáneo triunfo řue una iconografía numismática original figurando bustos reaies de larga cabellera. Su supresión entre Recesvinto (653) y Achila II (715) siguió de cerca la ruina del proyecto monárquico visigodo.López Sanchez Fernando. Reges Criniti Visigothorum.

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
