La educación para la salud en la escuela como intervención social
2013
ABSTRACT Schools with families are socializing areas where it takes place the development of people in their early stages, exerting an important role in the configuration of behavior and social values of children and adolescents. When we consider the health as understood by the WHO, that is, as a state of complete physical, mental and social wellness and not only as the absence of disease we see that the attainment of good educational results by a school save a very close relationship with the attainment of optimal levels of health within the educational community. According to this fact schools that incorporate the health promotion as part of its educational are building the bases that wil…
Bacterial community response to changes in a tri-trophic cascade during a whole-lake fish manipulation
2015
Microbial communities play a key role in biogeochemical processes by degrading organic material and recycling nutrients, but can also be important food sources for upper trophic levels. Trophic cascades might modify microbial communities either directly via grazing or indirectly by inducing changes in other biotic or in abiotic factors (e.g., nutrients). We studied the effects of a tri-trophic cascade on microbial communities during a whole-lake manipulation in which European perch (Perca fluviatilis) were added to a naturally fishless lake divided experimentally into two basins. We measured environmental parameters (oxygen, temperature, and nutrients) and zooplankton biomass and studied th…

L’impegno educativo della fabbrica Olivetti nell’Italia del secondo dopoguerra. Storia di una comunità responsabile
2015
The Olivetti factory, founded in the 1930s, experienced a total transformation in the post-war period thanks to Adriano Olivetti, who, from 1946 to 1960, created an educational project for modernizing his enterprise and making it more international. Olivetti’s “concrete utopia” was constructed around the idea of a “community”, guiding the life of the factory towards a more conscious and responsible participation, by tending to blur the division between managers and workers and between working and private life. The signs of this corporate revolution were the cultural and social initiatives promoting the worker’s personal and professional development. The social services for children, women, …
Il ruolo della cultura nel progetto comunitario di Adriano Olivetti
2021
Adriano Olivetti (1901-1960) was the promoter of an unprecedented business project that not only concerned the economic sphere, but also included architecture, social development, politics, the value of the person and of the culture. This paper examines the educational role played by culture in the Olivetti’s project as a way of human growth. To clarify the identity of the Olivetti’s culture, various sources were questioned: the personal library, the editorial choices, his coworkers and the good educational practices carried out in the Olivetti factory. These are pieces of a mosaic through which was possible to reconstruct the Olivettian ideal of a culture that, placed at the center of its …

Angela Zucconi e il Centro di Educazione Professionale per assistenti sociali (1949-1963)
2016
In questo articolo viene ricostruito l’impegno educativo e sociale di Angela Zucconi che, negli anni del secondo dopoguerra, fu coinvolta dai coniugi Calogero nella direzione del Cepas (Centro di Educazione Professionale per Assistenti Sociali). La sua proposta pedagogica, orientata a realizzare un’educazione degli adulti civica e comunitaria, faceva dell’assistente sociale un educatore che doveva possedere la qualità di un maestro capace di destare gli altri a se stessi, affinché si facessero interpreti della società in vista della sua trasformazione in una democrazia partecipata dal basso. This paper retraces the educational and social commitment of Angela Zucconi that, in the post-war pe…
Patients Who Miss Initial Appointments in Community Psychiatry? a Spanish Community Analysis
1999
Objectives : To identify factors that predict which patients, when referred by their GP, make a first appointment at a Mental Health Centre and then fail to attend. Method: Sequential observational study in which data was collected for one year on all the people (1311) with an arranged date for an initial appointment at an urban Community Mental Health Centre. Results: Approximately 25% of patients who request an initial appointment fail to attend. The variables that predict non-attendance are: the lack of a telephone number for contact, the time lapse before the appointment, and when drug-addiction is the reason for requesting the appointment. One variable that results in a specific kind o…
Global social identity and global cooperation
2011
This research examined the question of whether the psychology of social identity can motivate cooperation in the context of a global collective. Our data came from a multinational study of choice behavior in a multilevel public-goods dilemma conducted among samples drawn from the general populations of the United States, Italy, Russia, Argentina, South Africa, and Iran. Results demonstrate that an inclusive social identification with the world community is a meaningful psychological construct that plays a role in motivating cooperation that transcends parochial interests. Self-reported identification with the world as a whole predicts behavioral contributions to a global public good beyond …
