Tres mitos ideológicos de la psicología
Get PDFLa Teoría de la Dominancia Social (TDS), desarrollada por Sidanius y Pratto, postula que en toda sociedad determinados grupos ocupan una posición hegemónica, relegando a los demás a un segundo plano. Esta posición se mantiene por el funcionamiento de "mitos ideológicos", que pueden ser de tres clases: sagrados, paternalistas e igualitarios. Mi objetivo es el análisis de la posición que ocupa la disciplina psicológica en la sociedad occidental actual, aplicando la TDS e ilustrando cómo funciona cada tipo de mito para sustentarla. Selecciono para ello aquellos que considero más representativos: el mito sagrado de la divinización de la ciencia, el mito paternalista de la relación psicólogo paciente, y el mito igualitario de la patologización de la diferencia, poniéndolos en evidencia y señalando sus posibles mecanismos de mantenimiento. Parto para ello me sirvo, entre otros, del análisis realizado por Göran Therborn sobre el funcionamiento de la ideología.Social Domination Theory (SDT), developed by Sidanius and Pratto, says that in every society there are certain groups occupying hegemonic places, leaving the other groups in a second place. This position is maintained by the functioning of "ideological myths", which can be of three kinds: sacred, paternalistic, and egalitarians. My objective is to analyze the position that psychological discipline occupies in our actual western society applying the SDT and showing how each kind of myth work in its maintaining. For that purpose I select those myths that I consider as most representatives: the sacred myth of the divinization of science, the paternalistic myth of the psychologist-pacient relation, and the equalitarian myth of the pathologization of difference, making them evident and pointing at their possible maintaining mechanisms. I use for this, among others, Göran Therborn's analysis about the functioning of ideology
"Identidad del lugar" en Trinitat Nova : un acercamiento discursivo
Get PDFEn el presente trabajo analizo, desde una perspectiva discursiva y narratológica, la "identidad del lugar" de los habitantes del barrio barcelonés de Trinitat Nova. En primer lugar, realizo un recorrido crítico del concepto "identidad del lugar", desde las definiciones tradicionalmente manejadas en psicología ambiental hasta otros planteamientos alternativos, señalando sus fortalezas y debilidades. Trinitat Nova ha sufrido y está sufriendo profundas reformas urbanísticas, lo que permite incorporar la dimensión temporal al estudio al tomar en consideración el fenómeno del cambio. Con la recopilación de relatos a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas a los habitantes y su posterior análisis, pongo de manifiesto las tensiones que atraviesan estas construcciones identitarias y las configuraciones sociales particulares que permean su articulación. Esta perspectiva, que enfatiza la dimensión social, podría permitir un mejor entendimiento de las relaciones de poder en juego posibilitar transformaciones que contemplen la situación de los grupos en posición de marginación.In this work I analyze, from a discursive and narratological perspective, the "place identity" of the inhabitants of Barcelona's neighborhood Trinitat Nova. First, I make a critical review of the concept "place identity", from the definitions traditionally employed in environmental psychology to other alternative approaches, pointing out their strengths and weaknesses. Trinitat Nova has undergone and is undergoing deep urban reforms, which allows incorporating the dimension of time to this study when taking into account the phenomenon of change. With the compilation of narratives through semi-structured interviews with the neighbors and their subsequent analysis, I show up the tensions that go across these identity constructions and the particular social configurations that permeate their articulation. This approach perspective, which emphasizes the social dimension, could be useful for a better understanding of the power relations at stake and open the possibility to transformations that contemplate the situation of groups in marginalized position

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
