Adopting the Emotions Course in the Italian context: A pilot study to test effects on social-emotional competence in preschool children.
2016
The purpose of this study was to adopt the Emotions Course (EC) in the Italian context and to examine preliminarily its effectiveness in accelerating the social-emotional competence and reducing maladaptive behaviors in preschool children. The study involved 143 children (73 males and 70 females) aged 3–5 years (M = 4.4 years, SD = .74), divided into two groups: 1) an experimental group (N = 69; 34 males and 35 females), consisting of classes in which teachers realized the EC, integrating it in their usual educational plan; 2) a control group (N = 74; 39 males and 35 females), consisting of classes in which teachers exclusively followed their usual educational plan that did not include the …
Parental Psychological Control, Quality of Family Context and Life Satisfaction Among Italian Adolescents
2012
The aim of the study was to explore the unique and common contributions of parental psychological control and family functioning to global life satisfaction among Italian adolescents while considering the type of parental psychological control: dependencyoriented and achievement-oriented. Two hundred fifty-five adolescents (104 boys and 151 girls) from 15 to 17 years of age (mean age = 15.98, SD = .76) completed self-report measures on perceived parental psychological control, dependency- and achievement-oriented, family functioning and global life satisfaction. Correlation analyses indicated that parental psychological control oriented to both dependency and achievement was negatively rela…
Per un uso sostenibile e duraturo del territorio
2014
Valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale materiale e immateriale, uso integrato, duraturo e sostenibile del territorio, partecipazione della comunità locale ai processi decisionali e gestionali del territorio, sono gli elementi che concorrono a definire e caratterizzare il progetto ecomuseale. The free museum in perenne trasformazione, che non è delimitato da mura e si espande al territorio e diventa ovunque prendendo la forma e la dimensione del paesaggio. Il prefisso eco non indica un museo naturalistico a impronta ecologica con aspetti prevalentemente rappresentativi e statici, ma piuttosto, un insieme di fattori tra natura, paesaggio, paesaggio artificiale prodotto dalla relazione simbio…
Economia di Mercato, Investimenti Diretti dall'Estero e Corruzione nei Paesi in Via di Sviluppo: Ipotesi Teoriche e Prime Verifiche Empiriche
2006
Il saggio analizza i legami che possono intercorrere fra le restrizioni alle attività economiche e la corruzione nelle economie di mercato emergenti, e il loro impatto sui flussi degli Investimenti Diretti Esteri (IDE) all''interno di questi paesi da parte di imprese multinazionali. Si ipotizza che il livello di corruzione esistente in un dato paese sia in larga parte coctituito da una forma di rent-seeking interpretata come una risposta razionale da aprte degli agenti economici al contesto istituzionale in cui essi operano. Lo studio contiene una parte empirica volta a verificare se il livello di corruzione prodotto dall''attività di regolamentazione pubblica influenza i flussi di IDE nell…
Acid and alkaline production from multi-ionic brines via Electrodialysis with Bipolar Membranes
2022
In recent years, a great attention has grown towards the brine valorization through chemicals production and mineral recovery as an alternative to conventional disposal. Electrodialysis with Bipolar Membranes (EDBM) is an emerging process that can be used for the production of alkaline and acidic solutions from salt solutions. Within the SEArcularMINE project framework, the exploitation of saltworks bitterns (highly concentrated solutions generated during the sea-salt production process) is proposed for minerals recovery and NaOH and HCl solutions production. In this work, an EDBM unit, equipped with commercial ion exchange membranes, was tested for the first time in closed-loop mode with: …

La conoscenza delle emozioni in età prescolare: un contributo alla validazione italiana dell’Emotion Matching Task (EMT)
2013
Lo studio presenta i dati relativi alla validità di criterio dell’EMT (Izard et al., 2003), una misura della conoscenza delle emozioni in età prescolare. La validità di criterio è esaminata in relazione alla regolazione emotiva dei bambini, alla loro competenza sociale e alla manifestazione di problemi comportamentali di natura internalizzata ed esternalizzata. I dati sono preliminarmente analizzati in funzione dell’età e delle abilità verbali. Hanno partecipato allo studio 120 bambini, divisi in tre gruppi: 3, 4 e 5 anni. Oltre all’EMT, sono stati somministrati il PPVT (Dunn e Dunn, 1997; Stella, Pizzoli e Tressoldi, 2000), l’ERC (Molina et al., 2014; Shields e Cicchetti, 1997) e l’SCBE (L…
Orexin system: Network multi-tasking
2018
Orexin system regulates sleep/wake states and its deficiency result in narcolepsy thus indicating the crucial role of orexins in maintaining wakefulness. There are two types of orexin peptides: the orexin-A (OXA or hypocretin 1) and orexin-B (OXB or hypocre- tin 2). The Majority of the central nervous system orexin peptides are synthesized in neurons located in the lateral and back hypotha- lamus and send projections throughout the brain regions Orexin neurons are “multi-tasking” hence regulating also energy homeosta- sis, reward systems and feeding behaviour through connection with hypothalamic nuclei and through responsiveness to leptine and glucose. It has recently been found a connectio…

Limbal stem cells as a potential source of pancreatic beta cells
2009
BACKGROUND/RATIONAL Beta cell replacement therapy represents an alternative approach to conventional insulin regimen for the management of type 1 diabetes. Stem cells theoretically represent a suitable and renewable source of surrogate beta cells. Recently, it has been demonstrated that corneal epithelium contains stem cells in the basal layer of the limbus. Our aim was to isolate and characterize limbal stem cells (LSCs) from adult corneal-limbal biopsies, and to assess their capability to differentiate into insulin-producing cells. METHODS 2-3 mm2 biopsies were obtained from limbus and central cornea of four patients undergoing surgery for ocular diseases not involving conjuctive or corne…
