don't dividends get listed as transactions in the blockscan block explorer?

hi,
i've been exploring the blockchain using blockscan.com. I noticed that there seems to be a number of addresses that have several assets although they have only received one or two transactions. I assume that the other assets were delivered through the dividends mechanism. So now my question: why don't dividend appear as transactions? how can i find out how many dividends a have been received (and when) by a particular address? If not through dividends, how did those assets get there?

I would appreciate it if someone could explain this to me :-)
