Cuticular hydrocarbon profiles differ between ant body parts: implications for communication and our understanding of CHC diffusion.

2020

Abstract Insect cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) serve as communication signals and protect against desiccation. They form complex blends of up to 150 different compounds. Due to differences in molecular packing, CHC classes differ in melting point. Communication is especially important in social insects like ants, which use CHCs to communicate within the colony and to recognize nestmates. Nestmate recognition models often assume a homogenous colony odor, where CHCs are collected, mixed, and redistributed in the postpharyngeal gland (PPG). Via diffusion, recognition cues should evenly spread over the body surface. Hence, CHC composition should be similar across body parts and in the PPG. To te…

Modelling the dynamics of the students’ academic performance in the German region of the North Rhine-Westphalia: an epidemiological approach with unc…

2013

Student academic underachievement is a concern of paramount importance in Europe, where around 15% of the students in the last high school courses do not achieve the minimum knowledge academic requirement. In this paper, we propose a model based on a system of differential equations to study the dynamics of the students academic performance in the German region of North Rhine-Westphalia. This approach is supported by the idea that both, good and bad study habits, are a mixture of personal decisions and influence of classmates. This model allows us to forecast the student academic performance by means of confidence intervals over the next few years.

Pedagogika społeczna jako oferta studiów magisterskich w powojennej Polsce (1945-1949)

2021

The article presents graduate programs (Masters level) in the field of social pedagogy off ered by Helena Radlińska and her colleagues at the University of Łódź aft er WWII. Socio-Pedagogical studies established at the Department of Social Pedagogy at the University of Łódz were supposed to prepare educational, social, and cultural workers in time of revival of Poland after 1945. Th e example of the educational model created at that time can serve as an inspiration in the development of contemporary programs of education rooted in the Polish socio-pedagogical tradition

Ultreya, suseya, Santiago!” Viaggio e spazialità ne La ballata dei pellegrini

2020

Per studiare dal punto di vista della geografia culturale alcuni aspetti del pellegrinaggio a Santiago de Compostela, in Spagna, il capitolo prende in considerazione un testo letterario, il romanzo autobiografico "La ballata dei pellegrini" della scrittrice francese Edith De La Héronnière, pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1993 e tradotto in italiano nel 2004. Il romanzo racconta l’esperienza del pellegrinaggio giacobeo effettuato dall’autrice negli anni Novanta assieme a tre compagni di viaggio partendo da un cammino francese. In particolare, attraverso l’analisi di alcune parti del testo, si indagano le modalità attraverso le quali la narrazione costruisce e descrive lo spazio fisico e si…

The contribution critically and from a geographical perspective discusses the connection between propaganda comics and cartoons in the period of twentieth-century totalitarianisms. The way in which space real and symbolic is implicated through the rhetoric and dialectics of power in social economic and identity dynamics is then explored. In order to study some aspects of the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela from the point of view of cultural geography in Spain the chapter takes into consideration a literary text the autobiographical novel "The pilgrims' ballad" by the French writer Edith De La Héronnière first published in 1993 and translated into Italian in 2004. The novel recounts the experience of the Jacobean pilgrimage carried out by the author in the nineties together with three traveling companions starting from a French journey. In particular through the analysis of some parts of the text the ways in which the narration constructs and describes the physical and symbolic space of the pilgrimage are investigated. In this way it is possible to explore the way in which peculiar attributions of meaning inscribe the experience of pilgrimage in a symbolic universe that is both personal and collective at the same time.

Spazio, potere e memoria: riflessioni di un geografo su fumetto e cartoon di propaganda

2020

Il contributo discute criticamente e da una prospettiva geografica il nesso tra propaganda, fumetti e cartoons nel periodo dei totalitarismi novecenteschi. Viene quindi esplorato il modo in cui lo spazio, reale e simbolico, sia implicato attraverso le retoriche e le dialettiche del potere, nelle dinamiche sociali, economiche e identitarie.

The Zero Violence Brave Club: A Successful Intervention to Prevent and Address Bullying in Schools

2021

Bullying among peers in schools is a growing problem affecting children and adolescents from an early age worldwide. The consequences of bullying victimization in the emotional development of children and youth and their academic achievement are adverse for them and the rest of the school community, with its negative impact extending into the mid and long run. The Zero Violence Brave Club is implemented in schools in the framework of the Dialogic Model of Violence Prevention, a successful educational action according to the INCLUD-ED project [Strategies for inclusion and social cohesion in Europe from Education] (6th Framework Program of Research of the European Commission). The Zero Violen…

W stronę socjologicznego ujęcia etyki badań naukowych

2016

Zgodnie z tezą, że kompetencje etyczne stanowią ważną cechę kompetencji merytorycznych badaczy terenowych, a doświadczane przez nich dylematy etyczne mają charakter dylematów metodologiczno-teoretycznych, autorzy artykułu naświetlają problem połączenia refleksji etycznej z paradygmatem socjologii jakościowej. Argumentują, że wydzielenie jej jako specjalności normatywnej i filozoficznej, która dominuje w kodeksach etycznych, niesie ze sobą zagrożenie traktowania jej w inny sposób niż pozostałe zagadnienia obecne w socjologicznych badaniach i refleksjach oraz może prowadzić do istotnej straty poznawczej. Autorzy podkreślają możliwość i potrzebę rozwijania etyki badań w paradygmacie socjologii…

Potrzeba i możliwości budzenia nadziei u niedostosowanych społecznie w świetle koncepcji poznawczej

2014

Artykuł zwraca uwagę na potrzebę kształtowania u jednostek niedostosowanych społecznie nadziei jako struktury poznawczej osobowości. Nadziejo zdefiniowana jest jako systemem przekonań jednostki, iż w przyszłości osiągnie ona pożądany cel z określonym stopniem prawdopodobieństwa. Nadzieja, jako przeciwieństwo lęku, ma istotne znaczenie w formułowaniu motywacji do podejmowania różnorodnych form aktywności oraz decyduje o otwartości człowieka na zmiany. Opierając się na koncepcji poznawczej autorka wskazuje na teoretyczne uwarunkowania nadziei ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem możliwości pracy resocjalizacyjnej ukierunkowanej na przebudowę stylu wyjaśniania sukcesów i porażek, zwiększanie poczucia…
