2018
All versions of the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems (IIP) are broadly used to measure people's interpersonal functioning. The aims of the current study are: (a) to examine the psychometric properties and factor structure of the Italian version of the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems-short version (IIP-32); and (b) to evaluate its associations with core symptoms of different eating disorders. One thousand two hundred and twenty three participants (n = 623 non-clinical and n = 600 clinical participants with eating disorders and obesity) filled out the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems-short version (IIP-32) along with measures of self-esteem (Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, RSES), psych…
Examining the relationship between group member gender, gender composition, and outcomes of weight management therapy groups
2017
Presently there is a lack of evidence regarding the impact of gender composition of mixed-gender weight management therapy groups on members' posttreatment outcomes. As such, the current study tested the association between the gender composition of mixed-gender narrative therapy groups for weight management and members' posttreatment outcomes. Specifically, we examined the variability in group members' adjusted posttreatment psychological (Outcome Questionnaire-45 [OQ-45]) and obesity-related (Obesity Related Well-Being [ORWELL 97]) symptoms as a function of the quadratic proportion of female members in a group, and the interaction between group member gender and the quadratic proportion o…

Crescere in terre di mafia
2014
Questo studio, in continuità teorica con altri che lo precedono, rappresenta un amplia-mento delle conoscenze sulla relazione tra adolescenza e mafia. La ricerca si è proposta come obiettivo l’esplorazione dell’universo adolescenziale all’interno di specifici contesti sociali in cui la presenza di organizzazioni criminali è pregnante, focalizzando l’attenzione sulle modalità at-traverso cui vengono affrontati i compiti evolutivi all’interno di contesti caratterizzati da alta densità mafiosa e spesso contraddistinti da una percezione dello spazio sociale che rende pro-blematico lo sviluppo personale, economico e politico. La ricerca ha coinvolto 93 adolescenti che vivono in regioni meridiona…
L'alessitimia come disturbo della regolazione affettiva
2014
Alexithymia is a theoretical construct concerning the ability to contact our feelings and the ability to describe them in words. It is very useful in clinical experience and also in empirical research for its operationalization and applicability possibility. After more than 40 years from its original definition, with clinical observation of patients defined “psychosomatics” according a classic definition, alexithymia has become one of the most investigated disease in the last decades. This paper aims to explore etiopathogenetic hypotheses and contemporaneous prospective within which it is possible to understand the relevance of the construct both in clinical experience and in empirical rese…
Mutamenti e nuove generazioni
2015
Scopo di questo contributo è proporre una possibile chiave di lettura delle difficoltà che in questo periodo la cultura del nostro paese incontra nell’impostare la relazione con le nuove generazioni, in particolare con la quota di giovani che assumono comportamenti che la maggioranza degli adulti considera in qualche modo devianti. Da un punto di vista generale, ogni generazione comporta e apporta delle novità sulla scena della vita individuale e collettiva, novità che possono assumere tratti di maggiore o minore discostamento da quanto sedimentato negli anni, a seconda delle differenti epoche. In periodi di maggior stabilità socioeconomica, i discostamenti sono minori e più facilmente cont…
Training Cognitive Functions Using Mobile Apps in Breast Cancer Patients: Systematic Review
2019
Background: Breast cancer is an invalidating disease and its treatment can bring serious side effects that have a physical and psychological impact. Specifically, cancer treatment generally has a strong impact on cognitive function. In recent years, new technologies and eHealth have had a growing influence on health care and innovative mobile apps can be useful tools to deliver cognitive exercise in the patient’s home. Objective: This systematic review gives an overview of the state-of-the-art mobile apps aimed at training cognitive functions to better understand whether these apps could be useful tools to counteract cognitive impairment in breast cancer patients. Methods: We searched in a …
Transdiagnostic dimensions of psychopathology at first episode psychosis: findings from the multinational EU-GEI study.
2019
Background\ud The value of the nosological distinction between non-affective and affective psychosis has frequently been challenged. We aimed to investigate the transdiagnostic dimensional structure and associated characteristics of psychopathology at First Episode Psychosis (FEP). Regardless of diagnostic categories, we expected that positive symptoms occurred more frequently in ethnic minority groups and in more densely populated environments, and that negative symptoms were associated with indices of neurodevelopmental impairment.\ud \ud Method\ud This study included 2182 FEP individuals recruited across six countries, as part of the EUropean network of national schizophrenia networks st…
Attachment anxiety and avoidance and perceptions of group climate: an actor-partner interdependence analysis.
2012
There is a lack of research examining group members’ attachment styles and group climate perceptions in the context of the attachment styles and group climate perceptions of the other group members. In the current study, the actor–partner interdependence model (APIM) was used to examine the relationships among (a) a group member’s attachment pattern, (b) the aggregated attachment patterns of the other group members, (c) a group member’s perceptions of the group’s climate, and (d) the aggregated group climate perceptions of the other group members. One hundred ten Italian graduate students in six 10-session interpersonal growth groups were studied. Group members filled out the Attachment Sty…
Cross-Country Measurement Invariance and Effects of Sociodemographic Factors on Body Weight and Shape Concern-Related Constructs in Eight Countries.
2020
The aim of this study was to examine the cross-country invariance of five well-established measures of body weight and shape concern-related attitudes and behaviors (i.e., drive for leanness, drive for muscularity, strategies to increase muscle, strategies to lose weight, and weight and shape concerns). A secondary objective was to examine the effects of several sociodemographic factors (age, BMI, socioeconomic status, and gender) on item and latent factor scores of these constructs. A total of 6272 emerging adults (4218 women; Mage = 21.46, SD = 3.11) from Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Italy, Japan, Spain, and the U.S. completed a self-report online survey as part of a larger study.
