Individua postoji isključivo kao deo globalnog društva. U okviru tog društva razlikuju se određene društvene grupe. Čovek može biti pripadnik jednog naroda, verske zajednice, radnog kolektiva, vršnjačke grupe, porodice i slično. Čovek stiče određena znanja i ta znanja imaju upravo karakter društvene grupe kojoj pripada. Formiranje stava o određenom objektu ne dešava se  izolovano i vakumirano od ostatka sveta, već društvo i kultura u kojoj živimo  ima ogromnu ulogu na naš doživljaj sveta, objekata ili događaja.

Prirodna potreba čoveka je generalizacija određenih pojmova i dešavanja. Trudimo se da kompleksne odnose u svetu koji nas okružuje uprošćavamo i ukalupljujemo u određene sisteme po određenoj hijararhiji. Skupu pojava sa zajedničkim karakteristikama pokušavamo da nadjemo mesto u svetu afektivnog, bihevioralnog i kognitivnog funkcionisanja. Ova potreba iako je veoma korisna za kognitivnu organizaciju sveta u kome živimo ujedno je osnova za kreiranje stereotipa kroz preterano uprošćavanje i ukalupljivanje projmova i događaja sa zajedničkim karakteristikama. Afektivni iskorak prema određenom stereotipu može uzrokovati formiranje predrasude.

Pripadnici jednog društva svoja znanja, kulturu, religijska svatanja, karakteristike jezika, moralna shvatanja itd. izražavaju putem određenih medija. U tom smislu medije možemo shvatiti dvojako i to kao medijume tj. simplifikovano kao način prenosa podataka (u obiku teksta, slika, audio, vizuelno) ili kao mas-medije ili posredništvo u prenosu informacija na globalnom planu, ali sa posebnim viđenjem slike stvarnosti (novine, radio, televizija, internet). Poseban značaj u ovom radu pridaje se televiziji, novinama i literaturi koja svoj uticaj na društvo vrši u globalnim razmerama. Mas mediji i literatura imaju ogroman uticaj na formiranje i menjanje stavova ljudi bez obzira na lokaciju, starosnu dob, religiju i nacionalnu pripadnost.

Dear readers,

I want to announce you that we already indexed Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation in Scientific Commons

ScientificCommons is a project of the University of St. Gallen Institute for Media and Communications Management. The major aim of the project is to develop the world’s largest archive of scientific knowledge with fulltexts freely accessible to the public.

ScientificCommons includes a search engine for publications and author profiles. It also allows the user to turn searches into customized RSS feeds of new publications. ScientificCommons also provides a fulltext caching service for researchers.

ScientificCommons has no registration wall for searchers, but repositories that are not indexed can register by name and the OAI interface URL. It uses the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) to extract data. Currently, only OAI-compliant repositories and personal websites that are enhanced through Dublin Core in their HTML headers can be included in the index.

ScientificCommons strongly supports self-archiving, a legal way for authors to make publications from over 90% of scientific journals available, often called the “green road to open access”. The maintainers suggest that scientists should refuse to publish with any journal which will not allow them to self-archive.

Apart from the metadata scraped from repositories, lexical and statistical methods are used to index keywords. Citations are also extracted from the bulk text. This data is used in the search engine and RSS feeds.

ScientificCommons has been designed to work with Zotero.

Because it was made in German-speaking Switzerland, the web interface is also available in German. The majority of the information is in the language of publication, however.
