Promuovere la relazione scuola-famiglia. Il punto di vista dei dirigenti e dei genitori
2018
Per costruire una scuola inclusiva, è indispensabile curare la collaborazione con le famiglie, il territorio, gli operatori scolastici ed extrascolastici in un’ottica di costruzione di alleanze concrete e significative. Un positivo rapporto tra famiglia e scuola è considerato un indicatore di qualità della scuola stessa poiché influisce significativamente sull’apprendimento e sul benessere degli alunni. Promuovere la cultura della partecipazione e creare una scuola come comunità, diventa un obiettivo prioritario per alimentare una corresponsabilità fondata sulla reciprocità tra famiglia e scuola. La ricerca, di tipo qualitativo, si è basata sull’analisi delle interviste e sull’analisi dei R…
Future Research in Graves' Orbitopathy: From Priority Setting to Trial Design Through Patient and Public Involvement
2015
Graves' orbitopathy (GO) is a disfiguring autoimmune condition, which can sometimes cause blindness (1). The disease has profound effects on quality of life (2), psychological health (3), and socioeconomic status (4). Progress in understanding and treating this disease has been slow. However, recent advances include delineation of plausible immunological mechanisms (5), development of an animal model (6), and publication of randomized studies defining the role and limitations of intravenous steroids (7), rituximab (8,9), and selenium (10). Yet, some of this knowledge remains to be translated into improvement in clinical care. Access of patients to specialist treatments is patchy and seems t…
Early health, risk aversion and stock market participation
2021
To examine the relationship between early health status and financial decisions in adulthood, we link information on birth weight in 1966 from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort to data from the Finnish Central Securities Depository over the period of 1995–2010. We find that persons predisposed to poor health status in early childhood (indicated by low birth weight) avoid participating in the stock market in adulthood, with a 10% increase in birth weight associated with a 1.9% increase in probability of participation. The link between birth weight and stock market participation is partially channeled by poor early health status being associated with higher risk aversion. Early health status …

The Impact of the Direct Participation of Workers on the Rates of Absenteeism in the Spanish Labor Environment.
2020
The aim of this research was to study the relationship between the different levels of direct participation of workers (passive, consultative or active-delegated) in risk prevention management with the levels of absenteeism in Spain. To this end, a transversal study was carried out using microdata from the Second European Survey of Companies on New and Emerging Risks (ESENER-2-Spain, 2014) with a master population of 3162 work centres. A multinomial logistic regression model was carried out, with the dependent variable being the levels of absenteeism and the independent variables, the participation indicators and preventive management, calculating the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) between all t…
European transnational ecological deprivation index and participation in population-based breast cancer screening programmes in France.
2013
Abstract Background We investigated factors explaining low breast cancer screening programme (BCSP) attendance taking into account a European transnational ecological Deprivation Index. Patients and methods Data of 13,565 women aged 51–74 years old invited to attend an organised mammography screening session between 2010 and 2011 in thirteen French departments were randomly selected. Information on the women's participation in BCSP, their individual characteristics and the characteristics of their area of residence were recorded and analysed in a multilevel model. Results Between 2010 and 2012, 7121 (52.5%) women of the studied population had their mammography examination after they receive…
Institutional transformation to reduce the gender gap in STEM
2018
Despite the considerable efforts made in recent decades in order to reduce the gender gap as regards the teaching of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), great inequalities stills persist. In different situations, socioeconomic, cultural and other barriers continue to prevent the students complete or fully benefit from the quality education they have chosen (UNESCO, 2017). The new UNESCO publication entitled Cracking the code: girls' and women's education in STEM, presented at the International Symposium and Policy Forum UNESCO, on this subject, specifically what factors hinder or facilitate the participation of girls and women in education linked to STEM (Education 2030…
“Seconde generazioni”, identità e partecipazione politica
2020
Il volume si colloca nell’attuale dibattito sociologico sulle “seconde generazioni”. Questo concetto presenta problemi definitori che rievocano questioni più profonde legate alla doppia appartenenza culturale di questi giovani. Il volume si articola in due parti. Nella prima sono approfonditi aspetti teorici ed empirici relativi ai giovani di “seconda generazione” e ai loro percorsi di costruzione identitaria e di partecipazione politica, fortemente segnati dalla mancanza di riconoscimento come cittadini, dalle discriminazioni subite e dai sentimenti di esclusione provati. Nella seconda parte viene effettuata un’analisi quali- quantitativa (con il supporto del software T-Lab) di un corpus e…

Employee-driven digitalization in healthcare: codesigning services that deliver
2020
Abstract The purpose of this article is to explore and conceptualize how Nordic principles of employee participation combined with enterprise social media/web 2.0 could enable co-creation as an input to digital transformation of healthcare services. The question of how to enable effective co-creation is both under-researched and stated as an important enabler of digitalization and service improvements. The article starts by introducing The Nordic Model for employee participation that is proven successful for enhancing working life effectiveness and innovation. We then discuss how these principles of participation can be further enhanced by state-of-the-art web 2.0 technologies for Enterpris…
