Quantities, environmental footprints and beliefs associated with household food waste in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
2019
The objectives of this research were to identify the quantities and global warming, acidification and eutrophication potentials associated with household food waste in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In parallel, this study investigated perceptions related to food waste and using the quality function deployment for environment model, correlated reasons for discarding food waste and beliefs associated with food waste. Based on this study, it is estimated that around 2.8 kg of food waste is disposed of by the average household every week. Global warming, acidification and eutrophication potentials associated with household food waste are, on average, 3.49 kg CO2e/week, 2.42 g SO2e/week and 8.70 g PO…
Attitude Function as a Moderator in Values-Attitudes-Behavior Relations
2011
Abstract The aim of the present study was to find whether attitude functions could be useful in predicting aberrant driving. One of the attitudes functions is to express values; hence, we hypothesized that attitudes whose function is to express values will better predict traffic violations. We explored: (i) values in relation to attitudes towards aberrant driving behavior by regression analysis; (ii) and we explored moderating role of attitude functions in value-attitude-behavior relations. The study sample included 305 respondents who completed self-report questionnaires. Current research confirms previous results and also shows that values do predict attitudes when individual had formed h…
L'attività normativa del governo nel periodo 2017-2019
2022
L’articolo descrive l’attività normativa del governo nel periodo 2017-2019. Per quanto riguarda le procedure di programmazione e revisione della spesa pubblica, le riforme del 2016 finalizzate alla riduzione della spesa dei Ministeri hanno trovato applicazione solo nel 2017, mentre nel 2018 e nel 2019 ulteriori risparmi sono stati conseguiti mediante apposite previsioni delle leggi di bilancio. Le principali innovazioni in materia di liberalizzazione sono state portate a termine nel 2017, mentre non vi sono stati interventi rilevanti nel biennio successivo. Per quanto concerne il decentramento di funzioni amministrative, non si sono riscontrati progressi. Le politiche di privatizzazione son…

AUGMENTATIVE AND ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATION (AAC) IN NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS: A MINIREVIEW
2018
Children with neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), cerebral palsy or severe motor speech disorders may beneficiate of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) systems that may improve the developing language and the communication abilities. The term AAC tend to include each form of communication supplementing or replacing the natural speech production.
Multicenter Consistency Assessment of Valvular Flow Quantification With Automated Valve Tracking in 4D Flow CMR
2021
OBJECTIVES This study determined: 1) the interobserver agreement; 2) valvular flow variation; and 3) which variables independently predicted the variation of valvular flow quantification from 4-dimensional (4D) flow cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) with automated retrospective valve tracking at multiple sites. BACKGROUND Automated retrospective valve tracking in 4D flow CMR allows consistent assessment of valvular flow through all intracardiac valves. However, due to the variance of CMR scanners and protocols, it remains uncertain if the published consistency holds for other clinical centers. METHODS Seven sites each retrospectively or prospectively selected 20 subjects who underwent whole …
Divario territoriale, coesione sociale e tutela dei diritti: il ruolo delle regioni in tempo di crisi
2021
L���articolo si occupa di verificare il ruolo delle regioni in tempo di crisi, finanziaria prima e sanitaria oggi, sia con riferimento alla gestione dell���emergenza pandemica, sia con riguardo alla gestione dei fondi del PNRR, in funzione del difficile tentativo di superare il divario territoriale, e in particolare il divario Nord-Sud, a garanzia di una maggiore protezione dei diritti delle autonomie e dunque della persona.
Production of Functional Crackers Enriched with Olive (Olea europaea L.) Leaf Extract
2016
In recent years, considerable interest has been shown in the functional properties of foods, and a relevant role has been played by phenolic compounds, able to scavenge free radicals. A more sustainable agriculture has to emerge to guarantee food supply over the next years. Wheat, corn, and rice are the most common cereals cultivated, but also other cereal species, such as barley can be appreciated for their peculiarities. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a C3 winter cereal that shows high resistance at drought and salt stresses. There are growing interests in barley as ingredient for the production of functional foods due to its high content of phenolic compounds and Beta-glucans. In this re…
A simulation function approach for best proximity point and variational inequality problems
2017
We study sufficient conditions for existence of solutions to the global optimization problem min(x is an element of A) d(x, fx), where A, B are nonempty subsets of a metric space (X, d) and f : A -> B belongs to the class of proximal simulative contraction mappings. Our results unify, improve and generalize various comparable results in the existing literature on this topic. As an application of the obtained theorems, we give some solvability theorems of a variational inequality problem.
