Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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
Modeling the population-level processes of biodiversity gain and loss at geological timescales
No full textThe path of species diversification is commonly observed by inspecting the fossil record. Yet, how species diversity changes at geological timescales relate to lower-level processes remains poorly understood. Here we use mathematical models of spatially structured populations to show that natural selection and gradual environmental change give rise to discontinuous phenotype changes that can be connected to speciation and extinction at the macroevolutionary level. In our model, new phenotypes arise in the middle of the environmental gradient, while newly appearing environments are filled by existing phenotypes shifting their adaptive optima. Slow environmental change leads to loss of phenotypes in the middle of the extant environmental range, whereas fast change causes extinction at one extreme of the environmental range. We compared our model predictions against a well-known yet partially unexplained pattern of intense hoofed mammal diversification associated with grassland expansion during the Late Miocene. We additionally used the model outcomes to cast new insight into Cope’s law of the unspecialized. Our general finding is that the rate of environmental change determines where generation and loss of diversity occur in the phenotypic and physical spaces. © 2015 by The University of Chicago
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

IKÄIHMISTEN HENGELLISET TARPEET PERHEKODEISSA
Kyselytutkimus perhehoitajille

Sosionomi (AMK), diakoniatyö
Opinnäytetyön kontekstina oli ikäihmisten perhehoito, joka on kehittyvä palvelumuoto kuntien ikääntyneille suunnatuissa palveluissa. Yhteistyökumppanina oli Perhehoitoliitto ry. Opinnäytetyön tavoitteena oli tuottaa uutta tietoa ikäihmisten perhehoidosta.
Tutkimuksellisen opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena oli selvittää, miten ikäihmisten hengelliset tarpeet ilmenevät perhekodeissa ja millaista tukea perhehoitajat kokevat tarvitsevansa ikäihmisen hengellisten tarpeiden kohtaamiseen. Samalla selvitettiin, missä määrin diakoniatyöntekijät ovat vierailleet perhekodeissa.
Opinnäytetyössä käytettiin pääosin määrällisen tutkimuksen menetelmiä. Aineistonkeruumenetelmänä käytettiin sähköistä kyselyä, johon vastasi 64 ikäihmisten perhehoitajaa. Kysely suunnattiin perhehoitajille, joilla on perhekoti. Aineiston analysoinnissa käytettiin muun muassa frekvenssejä, teemoittelua, kvantifiointia ja sanallista kuvailua.
Tulosten perusteella ikäihmisten hengelliset tarpeet ilmenivät perhekodeissa monin eri tavoin. Tulosten mukaan perhehoitajien tuen tarve ikäihmisten hengellisten tarpeiden huomioimiseen oli vähäistä. Perhehoitajat kokivat luontevaksi vastata ikäihmisten hengellisiin tarpeisiin. Diakoniatyöntekijät olivat tehneet kotikäyntejä reiluun kolmannekseen ikäihmisten perhekodeista.

THE SPIRITUAL NEEDS OF THE ELDERLY IN FAMILY CARE HOMES
Survey for family care givers
58 p., 2 appendices

Option in Diaconal Work
The context of this thesis was the family care of the elderly. Family care home for the elderly is increasing form of service in municipalities. The partner was Perhehoitoliitto ry. The aim of this bachelor´s thesis was to produce up to date information about adult family care for older people.
The purpose of the thesis was to find out how the spiritual needs of the elderly appear in family care homes and what kind of support family care givers feel they need to meet the spiritual needs of the elderly. Moreover, the purpose was to find out how many family care homes have diaconal workers visited.
The methods of quantitative research were mainly used in the thesis and an electronic survey was the data collection method. The survey was answered by 64 adult family care givers. The survey was directed to care givers who have a family care home. The data was analysed by using frequencies, thematising, quantification, and verbal description.
Based on the results, the spiritual needs of the elderly appeared in family care homes in many ways. The results showed that care givers’ need for support to consider the spiritual needs of the elderly were low. Care givers found it natural to respond to the spiritual needs of the elderly. Diaconal workers had made home visits to more than a third of the family care homes.
Keywords: adult family care for older people, belief, spirituality, spiritual needs, religio

No full textCan archives of audiovisual TV interviews be used to make authors more visible to students, and thereby reduce the learning gap between native and non-native language speakers in college classes? We examined students in a college course who learned about one scholar's ideas through watching an audiovisual TV interview (i.e., visible author format) and about another scholar's ideas through reading a formal text description (i.e., invisible author format). For the invisible author, native language speakers scored significantly higher than the non-native language speakers on a corresponding exam question (i.e., a cognitive measure), generated more words on the exam question (i.e., a motivational measure), and mentioned the author's name more often in answering the exam question (i.e., an affective measure). For the visible author, the groups did not differ on any of these measures. These findings provide evidence for the idea that making the author visible through audiovisual TV interviews can eliminate the learning gap between native and non-native language speakers. 3 Universities around the world serve students who are non-native speakers of th
The vanishing author in computer-generated works: a critical analysis of recent Australian case law
No full textAbstract
The use of software is ubiquitous in the creation of many copyright works, yet the requirement in copyright law that every work have a human author who engages in independent intellectual effort means that its use may prevent copyright subsistence. Several recent Australian cases have refocused attention on authorship as an essential criterion of copyright subsistence, and these cases suggest that much computer-produced output may be authorless and thus lack copyright protection. This article, the first in a two-part series, analyses how each case deals with the question of authorship of computer-produced works and why the use of software diminishes copyright protection for a significant number of computer-generated works. The article critiques the application of conventional notions of human authorship developed in the pre-computer age to modern productions and suggests alternative approaches to authorship that satisfy both the major objectives of copyright policy and the need to adapt to the computer age. The article argues that, without a broader judicial approach to authorship of computer-generated works, Parliament must remedy the lacuna in protection for these ‘authorless’ works. Possible solutions for reform are suggested. In a forthcoming article, the author comprehensively examines those reform proposals
