Aggregating the results of the reviewed studies, a medium effect of stereotype threat manipulation on women's sport performances emerged (d = 0.33). Collected studies were…
LA TRANSIZIONE ALL’ETÀ ADULTA TRA I GIOVANI DEL NORD E DEL SUD ITALIA: LO STUDIO DI DUE CASI
2014
Introduzione. Gli esiti della transizione all’età adulta derivano sia dai contesti socio-demografici che da tratti psicologici-identitari individuali (Crocetti, et al. 2012). Diventare adulti è infatti il frutto congiunto di scelte individuali tra opportunità e vincoli di contesto. Date le sfaccettate differenze socio-economiche tra Nord e Sud d’Italia, il presente contributo si propone di porre a confronto alcuni aspetti dell’emerging adulthood in queste due aree geografiche attraverso due casi studio. Metodo. Lo Studio 1 ha coinvolto 160 studenti universitari di Torino e di Palermo (Metà=22.6; DS=2.77) analizzandone le differenze riguardo la soddisfazione nelle relazioni sentimentali, ami…
Teaching and Sexual Prejudices. New Training Needs
2013
Abstract This study focused on the future trainers’ attitude in respect of gender, sex and sexual orientation. Contrary to previous research studies, which associate to a greater knowledge a better attitude, our results shown that prejudices are still present even for graduate students. Therefore, it urges a reflection on a new teaching paradigm able to provide a plural gender identity vision. Training processes must be more than a mere intellectual education: a reflection on professional future.

Crescere in IPM. Il trattamento dei giovani adulti autori di reato
2017
Il trattamento dei giovani adulti all’interno delle strutture penitenziarie minorili, in seguito all’emanazione del D.L. 92/14 convertito in legge nel mese di agosto dello stesso anno, impone una riflessione e un’analisi sulle opportune modalita trattamentali non solo per i soggetti minorenni ma anche per giovani adulti tra i 18 e i 25 anni. Confrontarsi, infatti, con l’esigenza di rispondere in modo adeguato ai bisogni di una nuova tipologia di utenza e il principale compito dell’educatore penitenziario che necessita di programmi di formazione per acquisire competenze specifiche e costruire idonei percorsi trattamentali. Questi, se dotati di senso e rispondenti alle necessita di crescita d…
The psychometric properties of the Adolescent Family Process measure in an Italian sample
2020
Il presente lavoro ha l’obiettivo di tradurre, adattare e validare la versione italiana dell’Adolescent Family Process (AFP), strumento finalizzato a valutare la vicinanza genito-riale, il supporto, il monitoraggio, la comunicazione, il conflitto e l’approvazione dei pari. Le proprietà psicometriche dell’adattamento dell’AFP sono state indagate attraverso un campione non clinico di emerging adult italiani (n = 349). Le analisi fattoriali confermative hanno restituito soddisfacenti risultati psicometrici, evidenziando come questo strumento possa essere utilizzato anche nel contesto italiano per valutare dimensioni significative che contraddistinguono la relazione parentale. This paper aimed …
Future Orientation and Symptoms of Anxiety and Depression in Italian University Students during the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Role of Resilience and the…
2022
Several studies have already examined the psychological impact of COVID-19 on psychological well-being in samples of the general population. However, given the importance of future orientation for university students’ mental well-being, it is important to explore whether and how COVID-19 affected this vulnerable population. Therefore, the current study aims to investigate the protective role of future orientation and the mediating effect of resilience on negative emotional symptoms (anxiety and depression). An online questionnaire was administered to a sample of 244 non-infected Italian university students. The mediation analysis results indicated that resilience fully mediated the relation…
Coping Styles and Social Support in Emergency Workers: Family as a Resource
2015
The nature of the job of people working in emergency situations is such that they may experience high levels of stress. With the term ‘emergency’, we refer to macroscopic events (floods, earthquakes) but also to micro-emergencies, that are more frequent events like accidents and acts of violence. Therefore, the aim of this approach is to help to prevent, or to overcome, the psychic phenomenon that occurs in the victims after a traumatic event that is unexpected and upsetting. In disaster and emergency scenarios, empirical data shows that an effective intervention is able to activate pro-social behaviours, based on social relations and norms; but for emergency workers there are several dange…
Stereotypes in Persuasive Communication: Influence Exerted by a Disapproved Source
2004
The present paper examines how someone's use of stereotypes can exert influence over others’ judgments. In the 2 studies reported here, participants were presented with messages containing information provided by a source. In Study 1, the source was an in-group member. The messages were manipulated in a between-subjects design so that participants were either given stereotypical or counterstereotypical information. After being given a hint regarding the source's estimate, participants were asked to provide their own estimates about a number of points displayed on a computer screen. Results indicate that participants tended to use as an anchor the estimate provided by the source that made us…
Dinamiche relazionali nelle coppie omosessuali con IPV: dal conflitto alla violenza.
2014
La violenza perpetrata nelle relazioni intime è parte di un percorso sistematico di dominanza e di controllo, ed è spesso accompagnata da comportamenti di abuso e di potere. Una delle fonti di conflitto all’interno delle relazioni omosessuali ruota intorno ad uno scarso equilibrio tra partner, all'omofobia interiorizzata o ad una condizione a rischio outing . Scopo dell'indagine, dunque, è stato quello di esaminare il fenomeno della violenza nelle relazioni di coppia omosessuali appartenenti a diverse aree geografiche del Paese. Lo studio, che ha coinvolto 502 individui volontari (185 femmine e 317 maschi; Range 21-58 aa; Metà= 37,96) impegnati affettivamente (conviventi e non), analizza si…
