Psychological Well-Being and Career Indecision in Emerging Adulthood: The Moderating Role of Hardiness
2016
Choosing a career path is an important developmental task during the transition from adolescence to adulthood. However, many emerging adults (EAs)-individuals between 18 and 29 years of age (Inguglia et al., 2016)-struggle to get their career decision-making processes under way because they need a long time to explore various possible career directions (Arnett, 2004; Miller & Rottinghaus, 2014). In particular, this condition concerns EAs who are never employed and is traditionally associated with the construct of career indecision (Gati et al., 2011; Gati, Krausz, & Osipow, 1996), referring to the difficulties that can slow or even stop the career decision-making process.Among such difficul…
L’attenzione per il benessere organizzativo nella Pubblica Amministrazione italiana. Analisi critica del questionario CIVIT/ANAC
2018
L'articolo propone una riflessione sugli studi inerenti al benessere organizzativo nel nostro Paese, e un'analisi secondaria sul questionario per la valutazione del Benessere organizzativo nella pubblica amministrazione italiana CIVIT/ANAC realizzata tra il personale tecnico amministrativo di alcuni atenei italiani, con tre obiettivi: confrontare le dimensioni del benessere incluse nel questionario con i fattori considerati nei più noti modelli che in letteratura hanno definito il costrutto del benessere al lavoro; controllare attendibilità e validità dello strumento; identificare la struttura semantica soggiacente alle risposte, prescindendo dall'impostazione precostituita del questionario.

The individual-organization fit between organizational culture and individual values as predictor of job satisfaction and organizational commitment i…
2010
The aim of this research is to explore organizational culture and individual-organization fit (I-O Fit) as predictor of job satisfaction and organizational commitment. It's hypothesized that values composing organizational culture: a) are joint in constructs that postpone to some typologies already explored in the studies concerning organizational cultures; b) they behave as stable elements of that same typology of culture, also when, time passes, their intensity seems modified. Besides it is hypothesized that the different typologies of organizational culture emerged by the analysis modify their own intensity, as time passes, compared to their different ability to keep on guaranteeing the …
Organizational identity, employee's organizational identification and well-being
2015
Purpose: The topic of identity has developed primarily around the concept of organizational identity (emphasizing the role of internal processes in defining a collective and shared understanding of the distinctive values of an organization: e.g., Albert & Whetten, 1985), and the personal-level construct of organizational identification (a perceived oneness with an organization and the experience of the organization’s successes and failures as one’s own: Mael & Ashfort, 1990). The present research aims to investigate the relationship between organizational identity and organizational identification, arguing that a specific organizational identity type affect organizational and individual wel…
Simple methods for enhancing patient outcome in routine care: Measuring, monitoring, and feedback
2014
While highly effective, psychotherapy outcome studies suggest 5?14% of clients worsen while in treatment and that therapists are unable to identify a substantial portion of such cases. Methods to systematically track client mental health functioning over the course of treatment and adjust treatment through the use of problem-solving tools are described. We summarize meta-analyses of the effects of a feedback system indicating that the number of psychotherapy patients who deteriorate can be cut in half. We conclude with a series of practice implications, including that clinicians seriously consider making formal methods of collecting client feedback a routine part of their daily practice.
Parents or Peers? Predictors of Prosocial Behavior and Aggression: A Longitudinal Study
2019
The aim of this longitudinal study was to determine the associations among peer attachment, warmth from the mother and father, strict control by the mother and father, prosocial behavior, and physical and verbal aggression in adolescence. Few longitudinal studies have examined how peer attachment and parenting styles of the mother and father relate to prosocial behavior and aggression. Participants were 192 boys and 255 girls (M = 14.70 years; SD = 0.68) in wave 1. In the study participated 11 schools. For three successive years, participants reported on their fathers’ and mothers’ warmth and strict control, peer attachment, prosocial behavior, and aggression. Structural equations modeling …
FIRST EPISODE PSYCHOTIC PATIENTS WITH A HISTORY OF FREQUENT CANNABIS USE EXPRESS MORE POSITIVE SYMPTOMS AT ILLNESS ONSET THAN THOSE WHO NEVER USED CA…
2018
Background: Robust evidence has demonstrated that cannabis use increases the risk to develop psychotic disorders. However, a limited number of studies have investigated if and how cannabis use influences psychopathology profiles at first episode psychosis (FEP). Based on the evidence that dopamine dysfunction contributes to explain positive symptoms in psychosis, and that the main cannabis’ psychoactive component, Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), modulates the dopamine system, we hypothesise that: 1) positive symptoms at FEP are more common among psychotic patients who used cannabis compared with never users; 2) this association is a dose-response relationship. Methods: We analyzed a sample o…
Estilos de socialización parental y rendimiento deportivo en adolescentes
2015
Los efectos de la socialización parental en adolescentes fueron analizados en un muestra de 970 participantes de edades comprendidas entre los 13 a 18 años de dos muestras de adolescentes diferentes: no deportistas (786 adolescentes, 52,8% y 47,2% hombres) y deportistas de alto nivel autonómico (184 adolescentes, 48,37% mujeres y 51,63% hombres). El primer paso fue clasificar los según el cuestionario ESPA29 en uno de los cuatro tipos de estilos de socialización parental (autorizativo, autoritario, indulgente y negligente) según la puntuación obtenida en las siguientes dimensiones: Aceptación/Implicación y Severidad/Imposición. Una vez establecido a que grupo pertenecían se analizó si exist…
