Emozioni e relazione educativa nella scuola secondaria. Saggi sulle competenze degli insegnanti
2021
Teacher education has long been at the heart of pedagogical research. However, especially if we consider the recent Italian pedagogical research, we observe that most of the attention has been devoted to disciplinary and didactic skills, which are a necessary but not sufficient condition for the acquisition of an adequate professional profile. Especially for secondary school this gap is evident: while the training paths of educators, primary school and kindergarten teachers include a specific and broad pedagogical attention to the care of relationships and therefore to emotional competence, this is not the case in the current training paths of secondary school teachers nor in specialization…
Cross-cultural analysis of teacher confirmation, student motivation, classroom emotion and emotional interest in China, Korea and Japan
2016
This study investigates the relationship between teacher confirmation and student motivation across three cultures: China, Korea, and Japan and studies how classroom emotion and emotional interest influence this relationship in three different countries. Students in China (n=718), Korea (n=362), and Japan (n=350) completed questionnaires assessing their perceived teacher confirmation, student motivation, classroom emotion and emotional interest. Results of these samples indicate that teacher confirmation is positively correlated with student motivation in Korea and Japan. There is also a significant difference in these three groups on teacher confirmation, emotional support and emotional wo…
Emotion–performance relationships in team sport: The role of personal and social identities
2018
IF 2018: 1.25 (Q2); International audience; In the field of emotion–performance relationship in achievement situations, the social dimensions of emotions have been understudied. Thus, recent advances highlighted the need to explore identity processes to know whether group belonging may influence individuals’ emotions and performance when they are involved in a task-group. The current study introduced an innovative approach to continuously capture the variability of emotions (pleasant and unpleasant), identity levels (personal and social) and performances (individual and collective) experienced during volleyball games. Six elite players (M = 20.14 years; SD = 1.25) volunteered to participate…
Per un approccio retorico alle emozioni. Aristotele, Retorica, II,1-11
2021
Il saggio analizza la sezione della “Retorica” di Aristotele dedicata alle passioni (II, 1-11). Il principale elemento di novità che la prospettiva aristotelica è in grado di introdurre nel dibattito contemporaneo sulle emozioni consiste nella natura specificamente retorica dell’indagine in grado di far emergere, di più e meglio che in altre prospettive, il nesso tra corpo, linguaggio e socialità nell’animale umano.
Design e narrazioni
2022
Il testo nasce dall’esigenza di mettere a fuoco le implicazioni cognitive, metodologiche e progettuali del concetto di narrazione, sempre più ricorrente nella nostra esperienza quotidiana soprattutto per le molteplici forme di comunicazione e di produzioni culturali che vi si ispirano; si tratta di un concetto che anche nella riflessione teorica e nella progettualità del design sta alimentando dimensioni fortemente innovative ed evolutive nella costruzione, comunicazione di significati, contenuti immateriali, esperienze e valori emozionali che si sovrappongono e s’intrecciano all’espressione tangibile e funzionale degli oggetti, degli artefatti comunicativi, degli spazi. Si propone un perco…
EXPLORING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRAIT EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION ON SCHOLASTIC COMPETENCE IN PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN
2022
The construct of Emotional Intelligence (EI) has been studied as a potential predictor of a good physical and psychological health. Among the different possible EI formulations, Trait EI can act as an important predictor for the good development of psychological wellbeing and social interaction during childhood, and individual differences in trait EI can be relevant for a positive adaptation, emotional competence, socio- emotional behavior and scholastic results within the school context. The present pilot study is a cross-sectional design that involved 150 children aged 8-10 years from several primary schools located in Sicily. This study is part of a larger research project and data colle…
Adolescents’ Academic Emotions and Academic Achievement Across the Transition to Lower Secondary School : The Role of Learning Difficulties
2020
This study examined the role of learning difficulties in academic emotions and achievement across the transition to lower secondary school among 848 Finnish adolescents. Reading difficulties (RD) and math difficulties (MD) were identified based on test scores in Grade 6 and 7. Students with difficulties were identified as having resolving, emerging, or persistent RD/MD. Students rated their academic emotions and information on students’ academic achievement was acquired from school registers. The results showed that a decline in academic emotions and achievement was typical among all students across the transition. Resolving, emerging, or persistent types of RD/MD were also meaningfully ref…

Inside “Pandora’s Box” of Solidarity: Conflicts Between Paid Staff and Volunteers in the Non-profit Sector
2020
Non-profit organizations (NPOs) are quite complex in terms of organizational structure, diversity at the workplace, as well as motivational mechanisms and value rationality. Nevertheless, from the perspective of organizational psychology, the systematic analysis of this context is scarce in the literature, particularly regarding conflicts. This qualitative study analyzes types, prevalence, and consequences of conflicts in a large NPO considering as theoretical framework several consolidated organizational psychology theories: conflict theory, social comparison theory, and equity theory. Conflicts were analyzed taking into account volunteers' perspective, who have been the consistent protago…
The origins of the aesthetic enjoyment of music - A review of the literature
2009
Listeners attribute a positive or negative value to music. This aesthetic experience is known to be observable over the individuals’ entire life span, from early childhood to old age, and in every culture. It is then often concluded that such an aesthetic experience constitutes part of the human nature, having an important biological foundation. This assumption leads to the question of how aesthetic experience of music originated in the biological evolution. In this paper, we will explore this question in the light of evolutionary psychology, cognitive science, and systems neuroscience. After reviewing the existing proposals, we conclude that the explanation of the origin of aesthetic expe…
