    Anxiety Sensitivity Index 3 (ASI; Taylor, S. et al., 2007) - German version

    No full text
    Der aus dem Englischen ins Deutsche übersetzte ASI-3 wurde zur Erfassung des Konstrukts Angstsensitivität entwickelt. Er enthält 18 Items, aus den eine Gesamtskala und die drei Subskalen (1) Bedenken somatisch (BSM), (2) Bedenken sozial (BZS) und (3) Bedenken kognitiv (BKO) gebildet werden. Reliabilität: Die internen Konsistenzen (Cronbachs Alpha) liegen zwischen Alpha = .75 und Alpha = .92. Validität: Das postulierte dreifaktorielle hierarchische Testmodell wurde belegt. Weiterhin erwies sich die faktorielle Struktur als (metrisch) invariant in Bezug auf den Erhebungsmodus und die Sprachversion. Die empirischen Validitätskoeffizienten spiegeln die aus der Literatur bekannten Beziehungen des Konstrukts im nomologischen Netzwerk angemessen wider. Die höchsten Korrelationen zeigen sich mit alternativen Maßen des Konstrukts und mit Skalen zur Erfassung von Ängstlichkeit und Körpervigilanz. Mittlere bis hohe Validitätskoeffizienten ergeben sich für Depressivität und diverse andere Symptommaße. Konvergente Korrelationen traten ebenfalls mit Neurotizismus auf. Mit den übrigen Faktoren des Fünffaktorenmodells wurden diskriminante Korrelationen gefunden. Die differentielle Validität der drei Subskalen konnte anhand unterschiedlich starker Zusammenhänge von BSM, BSO und BKO mit Validierungskriterien belegt werden. Schließlich ließen sich Personen mit unterschiedlichen klinischen Diagnosen anhand ihrer Ausprägungen auf den Subskalen differenzieren.The ASI-3 which was translated from English into German was developed to measure the construct fear sensitivity. It contains 18 items, from which a total scale and the three subscales (1) somatic concerns (BSM), (2) social concerns (BZS) and (3) cognitive concerns (BKO). Reliability: The internal consistencies (Cronbach's alpha) lie between alpha = .75 and alpha = .92. Validity: The postulated three-factor hierarchical test model was proven. Furthermore, the factorial structure proved to be (metrically) invariant with respect to the survey mode and the language version. The empirical validity coefficients adequately reflect the relationships of the construct in the nomological network known from the literature. The highest correlations can be found with alternative measures of the construct and with scales to measure anxiety and body vigilance. Medium to high validity coefficients result for depressivity and various other symptom measures. Convergent correlations also occurred with neuroticism. Discriminant correlations were found with the other factors of the five-factor model. The differential validity of the three subscales could be proven with validation criteria on the basis of different strong correlations of BSM, BSO and BKO. Finally, persons with different clinical diagnoses could be differentiated on the basis of their expressions on the subscales.reviewedpublishedVersio

    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

    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 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
