Not All Academics Are Alike: First Validation of the Academics' Quality of Life at Work Scale (AQoLW)
2018
Background: Relating to the macro-level changes and the increasing complexity of the academic system, a growing number of studies began to investigate the perceived working context impact on well-being and job satisfaction of academics. A unique duality characterizes this context: academics cannot be longer defined as stress-free, but at the same time they are still satisfied and engaged in their work. There is a need to evaluate the academic environment not only in terms of stressor and strain, but also in terms of which experiences are sources of fulfillment. The study aimed to explore psychometric properties of a new instrument (AQoLW) for assessing context-specific features of the acade…

This study aims to examine the effects of visual aesthetics (i.e., classical and expressive) and lengths of textual information (LTI) on customer engagement (i.e., likes and comments) in the contexts of Instagram and small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

2012
International audience; Quelle attitude ont les chercheurs vis-à-vis de la vulgarisation scientifique ? Voilà une question que tout médiateur scientifique est amené à se poser. Elle intéresse aussi les gouvernements et les grandes institutions scientifiques qui incitent les chercheurs à communiquer auprès du grand public et cherchent des solutions pour améliorer cette communication.Nous avons recherché des études et des enquêtes qui, depuis 1992, auraient proposé des diagnostics sur l’attitude, l’intérêt et surtout l’engagement des chercheurs dans cette pratique de vulgarisation. Notre propos s’articulera autour d’une étude clé, publiée en 2007 par Ellen Poliakoff et Thomas L Webb qui s’int…
The Role of Perceived Social Support as a Contributor to the Successful Transition from Primary to Lower Secondary School
2019
Following approximately 1,800 Finnish children, this longitudinal study examined the associations between students’ perceived social support (teacher-student relationships, family support, and peer support), behavioral engagement, cynicism towards school, and academic achievement during the transition from primary to lower secondary school. After controlling for parental educational level and cynicism before the school transition, the results showed that the more students experienced pre-transition peer support, the less they reported post-transition cynicism. Furthermore, pre-transition peer support contributed to students’ increased academic achievement and behavioral engagement after the…
Dallo studio delle culture indigene a un progetto di analisi critica della modernità. L’antropologia «fatta in» Colombia
2022
Based on a critical assessment of the historiography of Colombian anthropology, the chapter provides a synthesis of the history of anthropology made in Colombia, defined as “that produced in the country and which constitutes an empirical, methodological or conceptual contribution to new anthropological works or debates in Colombia” (Restrepo, Rojas, Saade 2017). The history of Colombian anthropology can be generally divided into three periods. The first goes from 1941 till 1968 and coincides with the birth and the institutional and academic consolidation of the disciplinary field. The second goes from 1968 till 1991: these years are marked by the rise and fall of the season of social and po…
