Propiedades psicométricas y estructura factorial del BRCS en una muestra de personas mayores españolas
2015
Successful resilience is a variable often related to an optimal ag-ing process. However, literature is rather limited when dealing with assess-ment instruments for the elderly in the Spanish language. The objective of this work is to validate the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (Sinclair & Wallston, 2004), a four item likert scale, in the Spanish elderly. For this propose, the scale was administrated to a sample of 991 elderly Spanish participants, and the data set analysed in terms of exploratory and confirm-atory factor analysis, internal consistency and criterion validity. The scale demonstrated good psychometric properties. Furthermore, the homogenei-ty indices were higher than the recentl…
Maternal stress and coping strategies in developmental Dyslexia: An Italian multicenter study
2017
BackgroundStudies about the impact of developmental dyslexia (DD) on parenting are scarce. Our investigation aimed to assess maternal stress levels and mothers’ copying styles in a population of dyslexic children.MethodsA total of 874 children (500 boys, 374 girls; mean age 8.32 ± 2.33 years) affected by DD was included in the study. A total of 1,421 typically developing children (789 boys, 632 girls; mean age 8.25 ± 3.19 years) were recruited from local schools of participating Italian Regions (Abruzzo, Calabria, Campania, Puglia, Umbria, Sicily) and used as control-children group. All mothers (of both DD and typically developing children) filled out an evaluation for parental stress (Pare…
Contextual influences on italian university students during the covid-19 lockdown: Emotional responses, coping strategies and resilience
2021
Based on an ecological perspective on the COVID-19 lockdown experience, this study describes psychological responses among Italian university students. Our study considers three zones of the country that have differed in the intensity of the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, this research explores whether differences in pandemic conditions can account for their divergent psychological outcomes. The participants were 792 university students from seven different Italian universities. Students were asked to express their emotions and describe meaningful events during the lockdown in writing. Based on the grounded theory approach, this study conducted qualitative data analysis using ATLAS.ti 8.0…
Psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Experience in Close Relationship Scale 12 (ECR-12): An exploratory structural equation modeling…
2019
The Experiences in Close Relationship Scale (ECR) is one of the most commonly used self-report instruments of adult attachment and has been widely adopted in psychotherapy research. Composed of two subscales, namely Attachment Avoidance and Anxiety, the ECR was recently shortened to a 12-items version, called the ECR-12. Given the importance of extending knowledge on its applicability in understudied populations, our aim was to validate the ECR-12 in a large sample of Italian native-speakers. A total of 1197 participants (73.2% females; mean age=28.53±11.37 years) completed the ECR-12. Each participant also completed other measures of attachment, psychopathology, interpersonal distress, cop…

Il tradimento nella coppia tra colpa e perdono
2021
Il contributo affronta il tema del tradimento di coppia sottolineando come questo possa avere differenti origini e soprattutto, non riguardi necessariamente la presenza di una terza persona; l’equilibrio di coppia può infatti essere fortemente messo in crisi da un eccessivo coinvolgimento sul piano dei figli, a livello lavorativo o da un invischiamento con le famiglie d’origine.Per quanto le ragioni dell’infedeltà coniugale giochino un ruolo spesso decisivo sulla direzione che prenderà la relazione tra i partner, è pur vero che, in moltissimi casi, si cerchi innanzitutto di preservare il legame, di superare l’evento critico e rilanciare il patto di coppia, possibilmente su nuove e più funzi…
COLTIVAZIONE DI PIANTE OFFICINALI ANNUALI DA SEME CON TECNICHE ECOCOMPATIBILI
2009
La Sicilia, caratterizzata da un’ampia variabilità pedo-climatica e da una notevole ricchezza di paesaggi naturali e tradizioni popolari, è sede ideale per la valorizzazione delle risorse vegetali di interesse officinale spontanee o spontaneizzate nell’area mediterranea, da introdurre o diffondere in coltivazione. Sulla base di questa premessa, allo scopo di valorizzare alcune specie officinali mediterranee, è stata condotta una sperimentazione pluriennale, che ha riguardato la coltivazione in pieno campo di tali specie, con tecniche ecocompatibili. Scopo della ricerca è stato quindi la messa a punto dei principali aspetti dell’agrotecnica applicabile ad alcune specie officinali di possibil…
Acceptance of noninvasive computed tomography coronary angiography: for a patient-friendly medicine.
2014
PURPOSE: This study was done to evaluate the psychological state and anxiety of patients undergoing computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA), and assess their acceptance and satisfaction compared to invasive conventional coronary angiography (CCA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 442 consecutive patients (282 male; mean age 57.7 ± 9.5 years) who underwent CTCA for suspected or known coronary artery disease were evaluated with the Endler Multimodality Anxiety Scales (EMAS) before and after the scan, and a questionnaire administered after the scan. Among the 442 patients, 181 had a history of CCA. Two radiologists assessed the image quality of CTCA. RESULTS: Anxiety was more intense …
