Strategies and mechanisms in musical affect self-regulation: A new model

2017

This study aimed at investigating the associations between regulation strategies and musical mechanisms involved in musical affect self-regulation. A sample of 571 participants was collected and the data regarding the reported strategies and mechanisms were analysed using correspondence analysis (CA). Three bipolar dimensions – cognition, feelings, and body – were retained for interpretation, thus revealing six contrasting strategic uses of music: cognitive work, entertainment, affective work, distraction, revival, and focus on situation. Clear associations between strategies and mechanisms emerged from the CA, connecting cognitive, feelings-focused, and situational processing with individ…

Bcl-xL as a Modulator of Senescence and Aging

2021

Many features of aging result from the incapacity of cells to adapt to stress conditions. When cells are overwhelmed by stress, they can undergo senescence to avoid unrestricted growth of damaged cells. Recent findings have proven that cellular senescence is more than that. A specific grade of senescence promotes embryo development, tissue remodeling and wound healing. However, constant stresses and a weakening immune system can lead to senescence chronicity with aging. The accumulation of senescent cells is directly related to tissue dysfunction and age-related pathologies. Centenarians, the most aged individuals, should accumulate senescent cells and suffer from their deleterious effects,…

L’obiettivo della sistemazione idraulica del tratto montano di un corso d’acqua e assicurare una condizione di stabilita per il cavo fluviale, mediante il raggiungimento di una condizione di equilibrio permanente tra la portata solida e quella liquida (Benini, 1984), facendo ricorso ad interventi di tipo strutturale capaci, nel rispetto della vigente normativa in tema di tutela  ambientale, di conservare e preservare gli ecosistemi preesistenti a valle (Ferro, 2006, 2008).

Maturation of Epidermal Langerhans Cells In Vitro Is Accompanied by Downregulation of 4F2 (CD98) as Determined by Differential Display

1998

Following short-term culture, Langerhans cells mature morphologically and functionally into potent immunostimulatory cells. As regulation of gene expression accompanies this maturation process, it is likely that differentially expressed genes are involved in the maturation events. Using the recently described method of differential display, we generated cDNA expression patterns starting with mRNA of murine epidermal Langerhans cells isolated either directly (fLC) or following 3 d cultivation (cLC). Five hundred putative differentially expressed cDNA fragments were recovered from the gel. For a part of the fragments differential expression was confirmed by dot blot and Southern hybridization…

Self-regulation and Beyond: Affect Regulation and the Infant–Caregiver Dyad

2016

In the available psychological literature, affect regulation is fundamentally considered in terms of self-regulation, and according to this standard picture, the contribution of other people in our affect regulation has been viewed in terms of socially assisted selfregulation. The present article challenges this standard picture. By focusing on affect regulation as it unfolds in early infancy, it will be argued that instead of being something original and fundamental, self-regulation developmentally emerges from the basis of a further type of affect regulation. While infants’ capacities in recognizing, understanding, and modifying their own affective states are initially immature and undeve…

I tempi di lavoro e di riposo nel diritto dell'Unione Europea

2017

L’articolo analizza la normativa europea in materia di orario di lavoro (dir. 2003/88/CE) per come interpretata dalla Corte di Giustizia. Più in particolare vengono discusse le nozioni di orario e tempi di lavoro e la regolamentazione di ferie, lavoro notturno, riposi giornalieri e settimanali, e le discipline speciali; specifica attenzione è dedicata alle deroghe che secondo la direttiva possono essere apportate dall’autonomia collettiva ed individuale (“opt-out”) alla disciplina legale, per sottolineare come il diritto dell’Unione abbia determinato una marcata liberalizzazione dei tempi di lavoro. The present work analyses the EU legislative framework on working time (dir. 2003/88/EC) and…

Stakeholder involvement in developing LNG as a ship fuel in the Baltic Sea region

2015

New environmental regulations require the shipping industry to reduce its sulphur emissions. The currently most environmentally friendly alternative for ship owners to comply with the regulations is the switch to LNG fuelled vessels which however also requires port developers to invest in the supply of LNG. In order to successfully implement the creation of an LNG infrastructure, various challenges have to be overcome. This study looks at the challenges of LNG as a ship fuel from a stakeholder perspective by conducting a port screening with the aim to assess the current development status of LNG projects and the drivers and impediments behind it. Furthermore, a qualitative research with exp…

MEASURES FOR STIMULATING COMPETITION ON MOBILE SERVICES MARKET IN ROMANIA TO MAXIMIZE BENEFITS FOR END USERS

2010

In the last years, the market of mobile services in Romania had a huge success; the number of users of this type of services is constantly growing. The interest of the investors who were encouraged by statistics and have recently appeared on the market shows that Romanians are leaders in mobile services and that people are very attached to their mobile devices. ANCOM – the National Authority for Administration and Regulation in Communications) is the institution governing the mobile services market in Romania which establishes the rules and ensures that the market players comply with these regulations. Its mission is to ensure arbitrage on the communications market and genuine competition f…
