Conference Proceedings Conference Proceedings http://fordham.bepress.com/ftc/ PREFACE This Conference Proceedings book contains the written versions of most of the contributions presented during the Fifteenth International Facet Theory Conference. The Fifteenth International Facet Theory Conference took place at Fordham University, New York City, from August 16 to 19, 2015. The Conference provided a setting for presenting advances in Facet Theory, as a research paradigm and methodology for multivariate behavioral research, as well as original applications of Facet Theory and related methodological developments to a wide variety of topics in psychology, sociology and economics. Editorial intervention in this collection of papers has been kept to a minimum: The papers, accepted on the basis of their relevance to Facet Theory, are presented essentially as submitted by their author or authors. Dictated by time and budget constraints, this editorial policy may have its advantage: the resulting collection faithfully reflects the current state of proficiency and sophistication in the understanding and application of Facet Theory by Conference participants. We would like to thank all participants for their contributions to the conference program. It is our pleasant duty to acknowledge the financial and moral support from Fordham University, from Cornell University, and from The Society of Multivariate Experimental Psychology (SMEP).

Over more than a quarter of a century the application of this approach has revealed consistent frameworks for many related topics. This has allowed the development of an overarching theory for structures in qualitative data. Qualitative Structural Theory (QST) is of practical significance when empirically established radexes are interpreted drawing on Shye’s (1985; 2014) Faceted Action System Theory. The subsequent derivations of partially ordered systems using POSAC have been found to be of especial value. Drawing on examples drawn from criminal investigations, the utility of QST is illustrated. For example, clear differences between genuine and false rape allegations are demonstrated along the J axis of an appropriately constructed POSAC. Similarly, false television appeals to the public can be differentiated from genuine appeals through feeding linguistic marker identified in a radex into POSAC. Profiles of burglars of investigative significance have also been generated by similar procedures. QST therefore provides a new paradigm for applied research that is rooted in rich theoretical models. 6 KEYNOTE ADDRESS - NEW DIRECTIONS IN FACET THEORY SAMUEL SHYE, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute ABSTRACT1,2 Facet Theory addresses the dual perspectives on the data matrix: Faceted SSA (or Faceted MDS) performed on columns of the data matrix, for structuring multivariate attributes,

    This is a preprint of an article published in Scientometrics. The final authenticated version is available online at: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-021-03941-y A large-scale comparison of coverage and mentions captured by the two altmetric aggregators- Altmetric.com and PlumX Mousumi Karmakara, Sumit Kumar Banshalb, Vivek Kumar Singha,1 1Department of Computer Science, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi-221005, India 2Department of Computer Science, South Asian University, New Delhi-110021, India. Abstract: The increased social media attention to scholarly articles has resulted in creation of platforms & services to track the social media transactions around them. Altmetric.com and PlumX are two such popular altmetric aggregators. Scholarly articles get mentions in different social platforms (such as Twitter, Blog, Facebook) and academic social networks (such as Mendeley, Academia and ResearchGate). The aggregators track activity and events in social media and academic social networks and provide the coverage and transaction data to researchers for various purposes. Some previous studies have compared different altmetric aggregators and found differences in the coverage and mentions captured by them. This paper attempts to revisit the question by doing a large-scale analysis of altmetric mentions captured by the two aggregators, for a set 1,785,149 publication records from Web of Science. Results obtained show that PlumX tracks more altmetric sources and captures altmetric events for a larger number of articles as compared to Altmetric.com. However, the coverage and average mentions of the two aggregators, for the same set of articles, vary across different platforms, with Altmetric.com recording higher mentions in Twitter and Blog, and PlumX recording higher mentions in Facebook and Mendeley.

  • Dissecting the Sundance Curse: Exploring Discrepancies Between Film Reviews by Professional and Amateur Critics
    Dissecting the Sundance Curse by Lucas Buck — 27 Dissecting the Sundance Curse: Exploring Discrepancies Between Film Reviews by Professional and Amateur Critics Lucas Buck Cinema and Television Arts Elon University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in an undergraduate senior capstone course in communications Abstract There has been a growing discrepancy between professional-critic film reviews and audience-originating film reviews. In fact, these occurrences have become so routine, industry writers often reference a “Sundance Curse” – when a buzzy festival-circuit film bombs with the general public, commercially or critically. This study examines this inconsistency to determine which aspects of a film tend to draw the most attention from each respective type of critic. A qualitative content analysis of 20 individual reviews was conducted to determine which elements present in a film garnered the most attention from the reviewers, and whether that attention was positive, negative or neutral. This study indicates that audience film reviewers overwhelmingly focused on the “emotional response” gleaned from their movie-going experience above all other aspects of the film, whereas professional critics focused attention to more tangible – above-the-line contributions, such as direction, performances, and writing. I. Introduction As one of the most talked-about films of the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, theA24-released Hereditary became the breakout horror film of the year, opening in nearly 3,000 theaters and raking in $79 million while produced on just a $10 million production budget (Cusumano, 2018). Despite the obvious box office success, Hereditary’s word-of-mouth power seemed to have mostly been driven by glowing critical reviews, rather than by the opinion of audiences who paid to see the film.

E-mail: [email protected] Word Count: 2493 1 Running head: POSED AND SPONTANEOUS Abstract The majority of research on the judgment of emotion from facial expressions has focused on deliberately posed displays, often sampled from single stimulus sets. Herein, we investigate emotion recognition from posed and spontaneous expressions, comparing classification performance between humans and machine in a cross-corpora investigation. For this, dynamic facial stimuli portraying the six basic emotions were sampled from a broad range of different databases, and then presented to human observers and a machine classifier. Recognition performance by the machine was found to be superior for posed expressions containing prototypical facial patterns, and comparable to humans when classifying emotions from spontaneous displays. In both humans and machine, accuracy rates were generally higher for posed compared to spontaneous stimuli.

  • The Construts of Agreeableness.Pmd
    39 The construct of agreeableness: Facet vs. item level analysis Rebecca A. Newgent, Sang Min Lee, Kristin K. Higgins, and Sean W. Mulvenon University of Arkansas Joanie V. Connors Fayetteville, Arkansas Abstract The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R) was developed to operationalize the Five-Factor Model of Personality. Using correlational analysis and confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis, the present study investigates the facet structure of the domain of Agreeableness of the NEO- PI-R at the facet and item level to assess which is a more appropriate level of analysis for interpretation. While the six Agreeableness facets fit the domain, the results of confirmatory factor analysis indicate that the original six facet model at the item level did not fit the data well. Exploratory factor analysis indicates that only 35 of the 48 items associated with the Agreeableness domain had salient loadings on their intended facet. Results indicate that performing item-level factor analysis can produce misleading or un-interpretable results. Implications for research and assessment are discussed. The Construct of Agreeableness: Facet vs. Item Level Analysis The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO PI-R; Costa & McCrae, 1992a) was originally developed in 1978 as the NEO Inventory. The NEO Inventory consisted of three domain scales and 18 facet scales which measured Neuroticism, Extraversion, and Openness to Experience (Costa & McCrae, 1992b). Scales, consisting of 18 items, were added in 1985 to measure the domains of Agreeableness and Conscientiousness, and the inventory was renamed the NEO Personality Inventory. These new domain scales were inadequate in capturing the complete personality picture as the number of items was limited.

  • The Facet Atlas: Using Network Analysis to Describe the Blends, Cores, and Peripheries of Personality Structure
    The facet atlas: Using network analysis to describe the blends, cores, and peripheries of personality structure Ted Schwaba, Mijke Rhemtulla, Christopher J. Hopwood, & Wiebke Bleidorn University of California, Davis Objective: We created a facet atlas that maps the interrelations between facet scales from 13 hierarchical personality inventories to provide a practically useful, transtheoretical description of lower-level personality traits. Method: We generated the atlas by estimating a series of network models that visualize the correlations among 268 facet scales administered to the Eugene-Springfield Community Sample (N=1,134). Results: As expected, most facets contained a blend of content from multiple Big Five domains and were part of multiple Big Five networks. We identified core and peripheral facets for each Big Five domain. Discussion: Results from this study resolve some inconsistencies in facet placement across instruments and highlights the complexity of personality structure relative to the constraints of traditional hierarchical models that impose simple structure. The facet atlas (also available as an online point-and-click app) provides a guide for researchers who wish to measure a domain with a limited set of facets as well as information about the core and periphery of each personality domain. To illustrate the value of a facet atlas in applied and theoretical settings, we examined the network structure of scales measuring impulsivity and tested structural hypotheses from the Big Five Aspect Scales inventory. Keywords: personality traits, personality facets, Big Five, network analysis, five-factor model The facet atlas: Using network analysis to describe the blends, cores, and peripheries of personality structure Over the past few decades, a general consensus has emerged regarding the structure of individual differences in higher order personality traits (John, Naumann, & Soto, 2008).
