Caring through Discipline? Analyzing House Rules in Community Mental Health Services in Norway

2016

In Scandinavian countries, public housing and recreation programs for people suffering from mental health or substance abuse problems emphasize normalization of life and participation in a normal social life. The theoretical approach taken by community health care services has been de-institutionalization. To study if and how this movement from patient to fully participating citizen was reflected in these new institutions, written house rules in sheltered housing and day centers for adults were collected and analyzed by content analysis. The findings show that the formal language represents the voice of professionals, while the content pertained to regulation of the service user’s daily lif…

CONOCIMIENTOS, ACTITUDES HACIA LA ORIENTACIÓN SEXUAL, COMPORTAMIENTOS DE RIESGO Y ABUSOS SEXUALES EN MUJERES CON DISCAPACIDAD INTELECTUAL

2016

Abstract:KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDES TO SEXUAL ORIENTATION, RISK BEHAVIORS AND SEXUAL ABUSE IN WOMEN WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIESThe purpose of this study is to analyze of attitudes to sexuality expression, knowledge about safe and risk sex practices and sexual behavior in a sample of women with intellectual disabilities, to prevent sexual violence against this group. The sample consists of 39 women, aged between 27 and 52 years living in sheltered housing, residential homes or households. The results obtained through a structured interview and a scale of sexual perception adapted to the study population, indicate that the most common and acceptable behavior in women between 27 and 35 years is t…

ECO-FRIENDLY MATERIALS FOR THE ENERGY RETROFIT OF EXISTING BUILDINGS

2015

Today is widely recognized that the main cause of CO2 production and of non-renewable energy consumptions in Europe is due to the building field. For this reason, to improve the energy performance of existing houses through an energy retrofit action (adapting their performances to those required by regulations) is an important strategy to reduce energy consumptions since they are much more than new ones, also representing an economic opportunity. In particular, an important approach in the reducing energy needs consists in the thermal insulation of the envelope, through the application of innovative technologies and materials. The paper will present the result of a research about the possib…

The effects of vegetation on indoor thermal comfort: the application of a multi-scale simulation methodology on a residential neighborhood renovation…

2017

Abstract Despite the acknowledged positive effects of vegetation at urban, neighborhood and building scales, there are still only limited comprehensive design tools for multi-scale evaluation of the microclimate and thermal benefits of plants and building-integrated vegetation (BIV) systems. The paper describes a case study in the city of Palermo (Italy) that applied simulation methodology to quantitatively assess the microclimate effects of different neighborhood and building retrofit scenarios where vegetation plays a main role. The simulation workflow moves from a micro-urban to a building scale assessment by linking the ENVI-met software to the building energy simulation program EnergyP…

Sui progetti di edilizia residenziale pubblica di Benedetto Colajanni

2010

Attraverso l’analisi dell’architettura residenziale pubblica, il saggio delinea criticamente la produzione architettonica di Benedetto Colajanni. Il tema offre lo spunto per affrontare alcune questioni riguardanti il progetto in un particolare periodo di modificazione e crescita della città, in modo particolare di Palermo. L’ampiezza della produzione di Colajanni consente, infatti, di accostarsi a importanti temi della cultura architettonica nazionale e internazionale del tempo (a partire dagli anni ’50), tra cui il dibattito sulla casa collettiva, sulla sperimentazione tecnologica, sugli innovativi sistemi di produzione e gestione dei lavori e del cantiere, sulla ricerca spaziale urbana e …

Knowledge, attitudes, and practices about homelessness and willingness-to-pay for housing-first across 8 European countries: a survey protocol

2018

Contains fulltext : 200223.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) Background: Most European countries report rising numbers of people experiencing homelessness. For those with mental disorders, interventions are centered on achieving mental health and drug rehabilitation alongside housing readiness, often to the detriment of access to housing. Notwithstanding, more European countries are investing in a new model, Housing First (HF), which postulates immediate access to permanent housing with no initial requirements for treatment. While results of the European HF programs are published on individual-level data, little is known about the opinions of the general population about homelessness…

LA RELACIÓN CUERPO Y MOVIMIENTO EN LIBROS DE TEXTO DE EDUCACIÓN INFANTIL DE 1996 Y 2012

2013

Los libros de texto participan en el proceso de reproduccion y transmision directa o indirecta de modelos de comportamiento social, normas y valores. El objetivo del presente estudio consiste en comparar la forma en que se representa la relacion cuerpo y movimiento en las imagenes de un libro de texto publicado en 1996 y otro publicado en 2012 pertenecientes al mismo grupo editorial y dirigido al sistema educativo infantil (Pre-Jardin). Para el estudio de las imagenes se utilizo la tecnica de analisis de contenido con base en un sistema de categorias previamente establecido. Los dos libros de texto a pesar de ser publicados con una diferencia de diez y seis anos, presentan los siguientes el…

Un futuro per Kiribati : proposte di intervento per insediamenti abitativi resilienti

2020

Secondo il Rapporto Speciale dell’IPCC Oceano e Criosfera in un clima che cambia, il livello dei mari è cresciuto a un ritmo di 3,6 mm all’anno nel periodo compreso tra il 2005 e il 2015, aumentando più velocemente nel corso dell’ultimo secolo a causa dello scioglimento delle calotte di ghiaccio e dell’espansione termica dell’oceano. Questo aumenta i rischi per le popolazioni che vivono nelle zone costiere ed in particolare per quelle che abitano le regioni artiche e gli atolli come le isole di Kiribati che, entro la metà del secolo potrebbero diventare inabitabili. I sistemi di protezione delle coste e i processi di adattamento che utilizzano gli ecosistemi e soluzioni derivate dalla natur…

Emergence of Aspergillus fumigatus azole resistance in azole-naïve patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and their homes.

2017

Azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus (ARAF) has been reported in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but has not been specifically assessed so far. Here, we evaluated ARAF prevalence in azole-naïve COPD patients and their homes, and assessed whether CYP51A mutations were similar in clinical and environmental reservoirs. Sixty respiratory samples from 41 COPD patients with acute exacerbation and environmental samples from 36 of these patient's homes were prospectively collected. A. fumigatus was detected in respiratory samples from 11 of 41 patients (27%) and in 15 of 36 domiciles (42%). Cyp51A sequencing and selection on itraconazole medium of clinical (n = 68) and e…
