No full textViene affrontata la questione dell'insoddisfazione corporea e dell'effetto che i media hanno su di essa. Vengono discussi i risultati di una ricerca interculturale che mette a confronto l'effetto dell'esposizione a pubblicità italiane ed americane, sull'insoddisfazione corporea di giovani donne americane
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
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
Csound Timbral Textures Within the IEEE MX Environment
No full textThis paper deals with a new approach for the manipulation of timbres through the interaction between Csound and MX. Csound score information can be entirely derived from the symbolic MX code. Therefore, the association between Csound timbres and particular sounds can be managed in a single
frame. All the different subjects are univocally linked in a reference structure.
This approach supports all the instruments required by Csound. For example, in
an MX file we can find a number of MIDI files related to the current score.
Therefore, Csound can interact with these MIDI files. Also real time MIDI controls
are manipulated through MX and Csound interaction and the most important
analysis and resynthesis methods are supported as well in this approach
thanks to the management of the audio files included in MX
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 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
