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
Psychoeducational intervention based on groupwork in diabetic subjects
No full textBackground: The chronic patient experiences a persistent condition
of stress which makes it very difficult to maintain constructive
reactions to the illness. The responsiveness of the
environment is decisive: it may be supportive insomuch as it
reinforces the adaptive characteristics of the subject, or it may
challenge some areas of personal expression, taking on the
dimension of ‘patient’ as the only terrain for communication
with the subject.
Materials and methods: Support groups were created consisting
of a psychologist, a clinician, a dietician and 12 patients; a
service of individual psychotherapy was installed, and lastly a
weekly autogenic training programme.
Results: The group defined itself as a dynamic whole, the
essence of which was in the intercommunication; the subjects
involved felt they could speak with greater ease of their own
emotive experiences, of their social and family relationships.
The exchange of information allows deeper insight into the illness
and permits a more suitable reformulation of the strategies
needed to address it.
Conclusions: This type of intervention permitted a greater
emotive involvement in educational terms towards the suggestions
of the team. The benefits reported by the patients were
described as follows: the security of having someone to turn
to, a greater capacity to accept one’s own situation, the reinforcing
of self-esteem and of autonomy, the awareness of being
able to participate actively in the positive outcome of the therapies,
a more conscious presence in the personal and social
relations and lastly, a more appropriate use of the sanitary
and social services

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 linkWe 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
