PANDEMIA NEL CAPITALISMO DEL XXI SECOLO
2020
In recent months much has been written and said about the pandemic, produced by coronavirus SARS-CoV2, which results in COVID-191 and which is causing deaths all over the world, affecting above all those social strata that, due to their own living conditions, do not know how to defend themselves. The book returns to the subject, examining the interactive play of the different factors that lie at the root of this dramatic social phenomenon and that constitutes yet another warning, from the most unheeded, about the real conditions of our planet and the possibility that life can continue to reproduce in it. Within the analysis of these different factors we wanted to pay particular attention to…

La psicopandemia nelle relazioni di coppia
2022
The paper analyses couples' feelings and dynamics during Covid-19 pandemic: I feel stuck, in a sort of limbo where essences of life buzz around me, but I can’t access them. Life is at once too overwhelming and not engaging enough. Each task I do requires a search for motivation beyond anything I’ve ever known. I’m tired, burnt out, and not often excited, but also restless, eager to engage, and trying. What’s more, the seemingly unending waves of pandemic panic only further contribute to my inability to feel fully present in my life.

The Fear of Covid-19 Scale (FCV-19S) in Spain: Adaptation and Confirmatory Evidence of Construct and Concurrent Validity
2021
Fear of the coronavirus has important implications on mental health. In western countries, a significant degree of vaccination has been achieved, but in Spain, less than 75% of the population has received both doses. The current situation is still seen as a threat by many people. Therefore, it is important to have reliable and valid measurement instruments to assess the impact of COVID-19 on the population. In this study, the Fear of COVID-19 Scale has been adapted to Spain, and its psychometric properties have been studied in a Spanish sample using Structural Equation Modeling. This methodology allows obtaining more reliable estimates, regardless of the measurement scale of the variables. …
La normativa emergenziale in materia di obbligazioni e di contratti
2020
Il saggio esamina le principali disposizioni in materia di obbligazioni e di contratti introdotte dalla normativa emergenziale al fine di fronteggiare la pandemia di Covid-19 e tenta di ricondurle a sistema. Più nel particolare, molte delle norme esaminate, a dispetto della loro natura eccezionale, non fanno che applicare istituti del diritto generale delle obbligazioni e dei contratti, come l’impossibilità definitiva o temporanea, la risoluzione per impossibilità, la revisione volontaria del contratto etc. Di particolare interesse - anche per l’impatto applicativo - si rivelano le questioni relative alla gestione dei rapporti contrattuali di durata e ai riflessi delle misure restrittive de…
Risk Perception of COVID-19, Religiosity, and Subjective Well-Being in Emerging Adults: The Mediating Role of Meaning-Making and Perceived Stress
2022
The pressured experienced due to COVID-19 for young people has become clearly visible in the domain of well-being.

In addition, the mediating effects of meaning-making and perceived stress still need to be investigated. A total of 316 emerging adults (143 males and 173 females) participated in the present study. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis, we showed that the relationship of risk perception of COVID-19 and religiosity with subjective well-being was largely mediated by meaning-m…
