    Il presente studio intende analizzare le interazioni di gioco di sei famiglie con bambini sordi di età compresa tra i 4 e i 6 anni, tre con genitori sordi e tre con genitori udenti, osservando in particolare gli aspetti comunicativo-relazionali. Numerose ricerche, condotte sulle prime fasi di svilupo dei bambini sordi, hanno mostrato differenze significative tra madri sorde e madri udenti nelle interazioni con i loro bambini sordi. La presente ricerca intende verificare se tali differenze siano riscontrabili anche ad età maggiori. Dai risultati emerge che i genitori sordi e i genitori udenti utilizzano strategie e stili comunicativi in parte diversi. Riteniamo che le strategie comunicative che i genitori sordi utilizzano in modo naturale con i loro bambini possano rappresentare dei validi modelli sia per i genitori udenti, sia in ambito educativo per promuovere la comunicazione con i bambini sordi.The present study intends to analyze play interactions with six families with deaf children between 4 and 6 years of age, three with deaf parents and three with hearing parents, observing in particular communication-relational aspects. Numerous researches conducted at early stages of deaf children's development have shown significant differences between deaf mothers and hearing mothers in interactions with their deaf children. The purpose of this research is to check whether these differences can be found even at older age. The results show that deaf parents and hearing parents use different communicative strategies and styles. We believe that communicative strategies that deaf parents naturally use with their children could have useful educational implications being appropriate models for either hearing parents and educators to communicate with deaf children

    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
