Influence of sexual sensation seeking, sexual compulsivity and sexual pleasure in condom use among Spanish youth: implications for HIV interventions
2016
Spain is one of the countries with the highest incidence of HIV within the European Union. Multiple and complex factors influence HIV infection in young people. This study aims to determine the influence of sexual sensation seeking, sexual compulsivity and perceived sexual pleasure variables in condom use. A total of 424 heterosexual youth were evaluated (M age = 20.62; SD = 2.62) distributed into a risk group (60.7%) and a no-risk group (39.3%). Sexual Sensation Seeking Scale, AIDS Prevention Questionnaire, Sexual Compulsivity Scale, and Sexual Pleasure Perceived Scale were administered. Results indicate statistically significant differences in sexual sensation seeking (p=.001), failure to…
Recensione a GIORGIO RESTA, AUTONOMIA PRIVATA E DIRITTI DELLA PERSONALITA
2006
Dalla prospettiva del problema relativo allo sfruttamento economico degli attributi immateriali della persona il contributo ripercorre sinteticamente il dibattito sulla disponibilità/indisponibilità dei diritti fondamentali riguardo ai quali è possibile prefigurare la separazione di un elemento (un "quid" nella terminologia di F. Carnelutti) - materiale o immateriale - della persona che possa divenire oggetto di atti di disposizione giuridicamente rilevanti. Si individuano prospettive di indagine significative in una rinnovata considerazione del tema nel quadro della dialettica tra libertà e proprietà, autodeterminazione della persona e affidamento dei terzi, persona e mercato.
Verità e menzogna dei simboli
2008
Cosa sono e come funzionano i simboli? Quali sono i meccanismi di trasmissione dell’immaginario, i suoi spazi e la sua rilevanza sociale? Quali il ruolo e il perimetro del sacro, del mito, del rito, della magia e della religione in certi ambiti, erroneamente percepiti come marginali, della società contemporanea? Quali le strategie di trasmissione della memoria culturale e i processi di produzione e riproduzione dell’identità comunitaria? I saggi riuniti in questo volume cercano di fornire alcune risposte a questi interrogativi confrontandosi con la pervasiva, sebbene non di rado occulta, dialettica culturale tra immanenza e trascendenza e indagando sulle dinamiche psicologiche e sociali del…

2007
Il saggio analizza gli effetti prodotti dalla diffusione della presenza del crimine organizzato sul senso di insicurezza delle popolazioni, soffermandosi sul ruolo dei media nell'alimentare questo "capitale della paura".

2019
Il capitolo, realizzato nel più ampio contesto di un'indagine comparata a livello di Unione Europea in materia di favoreggiamento dell'immigrazione clandestina e tratta di esseri umani, è dedicato all'analisi della disciplina penale irlandese di contrasto a tali fenomeni delittuosi.
Material and immaterial culture of the internal minor centres. Studies and researches for the ecological transition of the Madonie inner mountain are…
2022
Presently, the European Union strategies aim at strengthening the rural areas that are characterized by a deep depopulation, people aging, and a weak employment market. In these "marginalized" areas, the urban regeneration process may be assisted by the creation of smart villages, realities that will cooperate and create innovative small towns. The Sicilian inner mountain area, in particular, consists of twenty-one villages - mostly dating back to the Middle Age - that present an attractive localization due to naturalistic, landscape and cultural features, also qualified by a well-preserved geographical area whose main building typological features were not altered during time. This paper p…
Labile nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus pools and nitrogen mineralization and immobilization rates at low temperatures in seasonally snow-covered soi…
2006
Surface mineral horizons from four ecosystems sampled in the northwestern Italian Alps were incubated at −3 and +3°C to simulate subnivial and early thaw period temperatures for a seasonally snow-covered area. The soil profiles at these sites represent extreme examples of management, grazed meadow (site M) and extensive grazing beneath larch (site L) or naturally disturbed by avalanche and colonized by alder (site A) and the expected forest climax vegetation beneath fir (site F). Changes in labile pools of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) were active at all sites at both temperatures during 14 days of laboratory incubation. Ammonium was the dominant inorganic form of total dissolved N (TDN),…
Between-group competition and human cooperation.
2008
A distinctive feature of human behaviour is the widespread occurrence of cooperation among unrelated individuals. Explaining the maintenance of costly within-group cooperation is a challenge because the incentive to free ride on the efforts of other group members is expected to lead to decay of cooperation. However, the costs of cooperation can be diminished or overcome when there is competition at a higher level of organizational hierarchy. Here we show that competition between groups resolves the paradigmatic ‘public goods’ social dilemma and increases within-group cooperation and overall productivity. Further, group competition intensifies the moral emotions of anger and guilt associated…
Effects of Social Hierarchy Establishment on Stress Response and Cell Phagocytosis in Gilt-Head Sea Bream (Sparus aurata)
2022
Social stress can affect the ability of fish to respond to various stressors, such as pathogens or environmental variations. In this paper, the effects of social stress on gilt-head bream (Sparus aurata) were investigated. To study the effects of physiological stress, we evaluated biochemical and cellular parameters, such as cortisol, glucose, lactate, osmolarity, and phagocytosis, 24 h after the establishment of social hierarchy in a group of three fish. Social hierarchy was determined and characterized by behavioral observation (aggressive acts and feeding order) of the specimens (dominant: “α”; subordinate: “β” and “γ”). After the esta…
