Ajuste psicológico en cuidadores familiares de adolescentes: un análisis longitudinal durante el confinamiento por la COVID-19 en España
2021
Debido al confinamiento por la COVID-19, las familias españolas tuvieron que adaptarse a nuevas situaciones y rutinas. El objetivo de esta investigación ha sido conocer qué variables explicaban el ajuste psicológico de cuidadores familiares de adolescentes ante la COVID-19, mediante un estudio longitudinal (evaluando primero a las 2-3 semanas del inicio del estado de alarma y después tras 8 semanas de su instauración en España). Participaron 32 progenitores de adolescentes. Tras aceptar participar, se evaluó: clima familiar, satisfacción vital, regulación emocional, resiliencia y psicopatología. Se realizaron modelos de análisis comparativo cualitativo de conjuntos difusos (fsQCA). Nuestros…
Suckling odours in rats and mice: biological substrates that guide newborns to the nipple
2011
Proceedings Paper 12th Meeting of the Chemical Signals in Vertebrates, Aug 28-31, 2011, Berlin, GERMANY ; http://www.springer.com/life+sciences/ecology/book/978-1-4614-5926-2; International audience; It is a general strategy for mammalian females to emit odour signals to direct their offspring to the mammae and to motivate their suckling. The survival of newborns depends on their own capacities to exploit the cues emitted by their mother, or by conspecific lactating females, and to direct their behaviour to the vital targets on the mother's body-the nipples. This chapter synthesises data on some natural substrates that contribute to nipple searching and grasping in the newborns of (laborato…
Alla ricerca dei fattori rilevanti nell’adozione dei sistemi di gestione della performance nelle amministrazioni pubbliche territoriali. L’analisi di…
2013
La ricerca scientifica ha dimostrato che la gestione della performance nelle amministrazioni pubbliche sta oggi spostando il proprio focus dalla mera attività di raccolta e rendicontazione di dati alla generazione di informazioni atte a supportare la formulazione di decisioni. L’analisi comparativa dei casi di studio analizzati in questo articolo mira ad identificare i fattori critici sottostanti alla progettazione e all’utilizzo dei sistemi di gestione della performance nelle amministrazioni regionali. Da questa analisi emerge che alcune variabili risultano essenziali ai fini di un’efficace adozione dei sistemi di performance management. Tra queste variabili sono annoverabili: il ruolo del…
An odor timer in milk? Synchrony in the odor of milk effluvium and neonatal chemosensation in the mouse.
2012
International audience; Mammalian newborns exhibit avid responsiveness to odor compounds emanating from conspecific milk. Milk is however developmentally heterogeneous in composition as a function of both evolved constraints and offspring demand. The present study aimed to verify whether milk odor attractivity for neonates is equally distributed along lactation in Mus musculus (Balb-c strain). Therefore, we exposed pups varying in age to milk samples collected from females in different lactational stages. The pups were assayed at postnatal days 2 (P2), 6 (P6) and 15 (P15) in a series of paired-choice tests opposing either murine milk and a blank (water), or two samples of milk collected in …
Un’Italia fuori dall’Italia. Immagini di cultura italiana nella letteratura anglo-irlandese contemporanea.

The book explores the ways in which Italian culture has influenced Anglo-Irish contemporary literature and drama. Poems, theatre scripts, novels and translations produced by Irish writers writing in English about Italian literature, visual arts and music have been examined.
Use of running plates by floor housed rats: A pilot study
2021
The outfit of husbandry facilities of, and the enrichment provided for, experimental rodents plays an important role in the animals’ welfare, and hence also for the societal acceptance of animal experiments. Whether rats and mice benefit from being provided with running wheels or plates is discussed controversially. Here we present observations from a feeding experiment, where rats were provided a running plate. As a pilot study, six identical cages, with three animals per cage, were filmed for six days, and the resulting footage was screened for the number of bouts and the time the animals spent on the plates. The main activities observed on the plate in descending order were sitting (18.…

Le redoublement à la lumière d'une approche comparative
2000
International audience; L'objectif de cet article est de présenter la diversité des usages en matière de redoublement, en Europe tout d'abord, dans les autres pays du monde ensuite, et de rapporter cette diversité aux résultats scolaires des élèves. L'auteur tente ainsi de répondre à la question de savoir si les pays qui ont abandonné le recours au redoublement ont connu un effondrement du niveau d'acquisitions de leurs élèves.
