Giochi linguistici e agire comunicativo
1997
Il saggio svolge un'analisi della comunicazione interpersonale focalizzandone il suo doppio codice di "gioco linguistico", secondo la riflessione del secondo Wittgestein, e di "agire comunicativo" di matrice habermasiana, sottolineandone poi le regole che ne consentono l'apertura all'alterità nella democrazia partecipativa.
Riflessioni fra comunicazione e discorso
1998
Il saggio ripercorre alcuni degli snodi della teoria della comunicazione individuando, sul piano storico, l'apporto fornito da studiosi come Saussure (diade langue/parole, Gremais (l'isotopia del discorso) e Habermas (l'agire comunicativo) nella comprensione della semantica e della pragmatica del discorso.
PERFORMING SOCCER GAME AFFECTS THE VELOCITY, AGILITY AND PSYCHOPHYSICAL CONDITION IN PSYCHOTIC SUBJECTS
2011
Introduction Physical activity is an important aspect of good health for everyone and is even more important for psychiatric patients who usually live an unhealthy lifestyle and assume medications that tend to reinforce their metabolic syndrome (Kopp, 2009). The purpose of this study was to examine whether performing soccer game by psychotic subjects has effects on their velocity, agility and psychophysical perception. Methods Methods Eighteen overweight male subjects, 8 no-trained psychotics [NTPs] (age: 35.00+/-5.00 years; height: 163.00+/-4.00 cm; BMI: 25.00-29.90) and 10 trained psychotics [TPs] (age: 36.00+/-6.00 years; height: 164.00+/-7.00 cm; BMI: 25.00- 29.90) from Local Health of …
The magnesium global network (MaGNet) to promote research on magnesium in diseases focusing on covid-19
2021
When the current SARS-CoV-2 pandemic began in early 2020, the global magnesium researcher community came together and noted the striking similarities between COVID-19 risk factors and conditions associated with magnesium deficit state in humans, reasoning that magnesium deficiency could worsen the course of COVID-19 [1-4]. This prompted establishment of a worldwide collaborative network with regular virtual meetings to brainstorm the associations between magnesium and COVID-19. We hypothesize that magnesium deficiency, a common but mostly unrecognized state in modern global societies, could be an important component of the susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Consequently, restoring the …
Psychometric properties of the Spanish version of the Temporal Satisfaction with Life Scale (TSLS): A study on elderly attending to university progra…
2015
Several measures have been developed for the operalization of well-being, standing out the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS). To cope with some of its problems the Temporal Satisfaction with Life Scale (TSLS) was developed. The aim of this study is to present and validate the Spanish version of the TSLS, in a sample elderly attending to University programs. The sample was composed of 737 elderly. Together with the TSLS, an indicator of general life satisfaction and the SF-8 Health Scale were used. Analyses included the study of factorial validity, estimations of reliability and external validity. Results of the confirmatory factor analysis were adequate: χ2(87)=454.593 (p<.001), CFI=.9…
Validation of an explicative model of the successful aging process with psychological, physical, relational, and leisure variables
2015
Increasingly, research on the aging process tends to adopt a dual perspective emic (specific to a culture) and etic (universal), requiring further studies to address this cross-cultural approach. The aim is to obtain an empirical answer to the question of whether a model of successful aging raised from a different context such as the Taiwanese context, is suitable to represent this process in our elders. The sample consisted of 737 elderly. Socio-demographic-data and different scales to assess life satisfaction, leisure, health, and social support were collected. A structural equation model taken from Lee et al. (2011), in which leisure, health and social support predicted life satisfaction…
RETA A TU MENTE, DESAFÍA A TU CEREBRO: COMPLEJIDAD AMBIENTAL Y SALUD CEREBRAL
2016
Abstract.According to the World Health Organization, it is estimated that more than 30 million people suffer from Alzheimer’s disease in the world. Currently, there is great interest in developing strategies to counteract the cognitive decline that accompanies aging and, to a greater extent, neurodegenerative diseases. The aim of the current study is to analyze the experimental evidence supporting the hypothesis that interventions based on novelty and complexity are more effective in order to achieve successful aging. In animal models it has shown that enriched environments and performing voluntary exercise can improve performance in learning and memory tasks, decrease anxiety response and …
Integration of GMR sensors with different technologies
2016
Less than thirty years after the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect was described, GMR sensors are the preferred choice in many applications demanding the measurement of low magnetic fields in small volumes. This rapid deployment from theoretical basis to market and state-of-the-art applications can be explained by the combination of excellent inherent properties with the feasibility of fabrication, allowing the real integration with many other standard technologies. In this paper, we present a review focusing on how this capability of integration has allowed the improvement of the inherent capabilities and, therefore, the range of application of GMR sensors. After briefly describing the …
Il lavoro agile e il telelavoro nello scenario europeo e comparato: dinamiche emergenti, effetti sulla qualità del lavoro e strumenti di regolazione
2017
Il presente lavoro offre un quadro di sintesi del report congiunto Oil-Eurofound su Working Anytime, Anywhere. The Effects on the World of Work, che ha per oggetto l’impatto delle Icts sulle relazioni di lavoro in dieci Stati, sia all’interno dell’Unione Europea che in paesi extra-europei. Il saggio si prefigge innanzitutto di analizzare i rischi e le opportunità correlati alla digitalizzazione del lavoro nel capitalismo contemporaneo, principalmente con riferimento agli impatti su orario di lavoro, conciliazione vita-lavoro, salute e sicurezza e produttività. Al contempo ricostruisce un quadro sistematico delle principali politiche normative e contrattuali volte a favorire lo sviluppo di t…
Prospective study of population aging in Verviers District (wallonia, belgium).
2013
Aging population has become an important issue and challenge in most Western Europe countries. This substantive change is likely to deeply affect the structure and the way our societies work (European commission, 2012a). Furthermore, aging population and its consequences are now a sensitive topic in policy at both European and national levels, especially concerning budget discussions and the increased societal costs linked to the phenomenon (European commission, 2012b). However, at more local scales, the topic is not fully integrated in urban or regional policies yet. This situation can be seen as a paradox since local collectivities will have to concretely deal with the impacts and the gro…
