Neuroethics 1995-2012. A bibliometric analysis of the guiding themes of an emerging research field

2016

International audience; In bioethics, the first decade of the twenty-first century was characterized by the emergence of interest in the ethical, legal and social aspects of neuroscience research. At the same time an ongoing extension of the topics and phenomena addressed by neuroscientists was observed alongside its rise as one of the leading disciplines in the biomedical science. One of these phenomena addressed by neuroscientists and moral psychologists was the neural processes involved in moral decision-making. Today both strands of research are often addressed under the label of neuroethics. To understand this development we recalled literature from 1995 to 2012 stored in the Mainz Neu…

Bibliometric analysis of the Annual Review of Legal Psychology journal between 1991-2019

2021

[EN]: The present study carries out a bibliometric analysis of Annual Review of Legal Psychology from 1991 to 2019. Data were collected from a database that allows for the analysis of authors, institutions, countries, gender, topics, and impact. The results enable us to observe gender discrepancies among authors, with a a higher frequency of women (50.2%), and the number of signatures (53.7% men). Over the years there is an increase in the number of authors and signatures, of co-authorship, a higher presence of international signatures, representing 23.5% between 2011 and 2019. Three collaboration groups were identified, two from Spain and one from Colombia. Categories of Legal and Forensic…

Investigación del comportamiento informacional a través del análisis de redes sociales

2013

El enfoque prevaleciente en la investigación del comportamiento informacional es el constructivista centrado en el indivi- duo como generador de conocimiento. Recientemente han aumentado las críticas a esta postura reclamando un giro hacia lo social. Desde esta perspectiva se emplean métodos como el análisis del discurso que busca conocer, a través del lenguaje de los usuarios, cómo se genera y comparte el conocimiento en el contexto social. Otros métodos más objetivistas como el análisis de redes sociales podrían contribuir a un mayor conocimiento de este aspecto. Este trabajo describe cómo se ha aplicado a la investigación del comportamiento informacional, se presenta una apli…

The rise of the middle author: Investigating collaboration and division of labor in biomedical research using partial alphabetical authorship

2017

Contemporary biomedical research is performed by increasingly large teams. Consequently, an increasingly large number of individuals are being listed as authors in the bylines, which complicates the proper attribution of credit and responsibility to individual authors. Typically, more importance is given to the first and last authors, while it is assumed that the others (the middle authors) have made smaller contributions. However, this may not properly reflect the actual division of labor because some authors other than the first and last may have made major contributions. In practice, research teams may differentiate the main contributors from the rest by using partial alphabetical author…

Exploiting Imperfections in Perception-Action Learning

2019

In this paper a some examples of simulations and experiments performed in the last few years in the field of bio-inspired robotics are reviewed and revisited, deepening their characteristics and emphasising the role of imperfections that could be the main actors guiding their success in real environment. Our cases of study rely on both geetic and behavioral experiments on the fruit fly, from which models, simulations and robotic experiments were performed.

Constructivism in Science Education: The Need for a Clear Line of Demarcation

2003

Some voices have recently begun to question the constructivist positions, which have been considered the most important contribution of the last decades in science education. It could be thought then, that the“constructivist consensus” might just be a new fashion that would once again lead us back to the immovable reception model of science learning. This questions, at the same time, the idea of an advance in the field of science education towards the construction of a coherent body of knowledge.

Pierre Bourdieu e le pratiche sociali

2022

Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002) is considered one of the greatest sociologists of the contemporary era. A scholar of many interests, as can be seen from the number of his works, the breadth of the topics he dealt with, and the breadth of the theoretical-epistemological issues he debated with the sociological scientific community, he represents the example of a French intellectual who combines an intense research life with an equally intense presence in the public debate concerning controversial issues. Born into an underprivileged family (his father was a sharecropper later employed as a postal worker) in a small town in southern France, he trained at the École Normal Supérieure under Luis Alth…

Multiagent System for Detecting and Solving Design-Time Conflicts in Civil Infrastructure

2012

One typical source of problems in the Civil Infrastructure domain is the distributed and collaborative nature of the projects in which different profiles of engineers contribute with designs devoted to the interest of their field of expertise. Thus, situations in which there are different conflicts of interests are quite common. A conflict refers to a situation in which the actions of an engineer collide with the interests of other engineers. In this paper, we present a multi-agent system that, thanks to the use of ontologies and rules on those ontologies, is able to detect profilespecific conflict situations and solve them according to the preferences of the parties involved in the conflic…
