Dalla tessitura del presente alle reinvenzioni spaziali. Un caso di studio a Raccuja (Me)
2022
Il saggio di Santo Giunta riflettere sul rapporto tra restauro e rifunzionalizzazione di un edificio storico, focalizzando l’attenzione su un’opera di Pasquale Culotta a Raccuja (ME). Il saggio è pubblicato in un libro, curato da Calogero Marzullo, che nasce dalla volontà di rileggere alcune riflessioni su ricerche e sperimentazioni di diversi autori che dialogano tra loro per tentare di definire il valore del progetto di architettura. Nel caso di studio in esame il progetto non è solo la rispondenza funzionale di elementi riconoscibili tra le proposte strutturali e culturali, ma tiene conto delle forme della vita contemporanea, di una socialità interagente e di confine. La qualità emotiva …
Carsharing business models in Germany: characteristics, success and future prospects
2017
Carsharing provides an alternative to private car ownership by allowing car use temporarily on an on-demand basis. Operators provide carsharing services using different business models and ownership structures. We distinguish between cooperative, business-to-consumer (B2C) roundtrip and one-way, as well as peer-topeer (P2P) carsharing. This paper characterizes these different types of business models and compares their success in terms of diffusion using a comprehensive database of all 101 German carsharing providers in 2016. The key result holds that fleet size is significantly different across business models ranging from a few cars (cooperatives in small towns), to a few hundred (B2C rou…
How perceived value drives the use of mobile financial services apps
2019
Mobile information services have revolutionized business models and service delivery methods by facilitating consumer access to information and order placement via mobile apps. In developed markets, mobile banking (m-banking) and mobile payment (m-payment) applications have replaced text-based mobile services. However, extant research has not addressed these mobile financial services apps (MFSAs) adequately from the perspective of consumer behavior. Thus, the present study developed and tested a series of hypotheses related to the antecedents of perceived value of MFSA use; it also examined how such use affects the development of customers’ overall relationships with banks. Our hypotheses w…
Liturgie anlässlich der Staatsund Nationalfeierlichkeiten in Polen Geschichte, Probleme und Herausforderungen
2018
Historia, problemy i wyzwania. Historia Polski od przyjęcia chrztu w 966 r. pokazuje, jak pewne wydarzenia społeczne łączono z celebracjami liturgii. W artykule została podjęta próba pokazania nie tylko historii tego zjawiska, ale też problemów, jakie się z nim wiązały. Łączenie wątków religijnych ze świętowaniem wydarzeń narodowych miało miejsce wtedy, gdy pojawiało się zagrożenie wewnętrzne lub zewnętrzne. Przykładem są tzw. śluby lwowskie króla Jana Kazimierza, który 1 kwietnia 1656 r. uroczystym aktem religijno-państwowym oddał Rzeczpospolitą pod opiekę Matki Bożej, którą ogłosił Patronką oraz Królową Królestwa Polskiego i wszystkich jego ludów. Fakt ten przyczynił się zdecydowanie do t…
The balanced digitalization and digital security : Case of regional authorities
2019
The emerging digital infrastructure enables the public authorities to shape their processes and to create attractive digital services for the citizens and the business actors. The public processes, services and infrastructure, however, engage with global and local public and private digital infrastructure and service providers. The complex comprehensiveness of the digital infrastructure and the services challenges the public authorities and create new types of security risks. The achieving of the benefits of the digitalization of public processes and services without increasing security risks requires the adopting of novel approaches to digital security. The paper refers to a framework that…
Designing a Multichannel Map Service Concept
2013
This paper introduces a user-centered design process for developing a multichannel map service. The aim of the service is to provide hikers with interactive maps through several channels. In a multichannel map service, the same spatial information is available through various channels, such as printed maps, Web maps, mobile maps, and other interactive media. When properly networked, the channels share a uniform identity so that the user experiences the different channels as a part of a single map service. The traditional methods of user-centered design, such as design probes, personas, and scenarios, proved useful even in the emerging field of developing multichannel map services. The findi…
Predictors of outcome after a time-limited psychosocial intervention for adolescent depression.
2022
Research on the predictors of outcome for early, community-based, and time-limited interventions targeted for clinical depression in adolescents is still scarce. We examined the role of demographic, psychosocial, and clinical variables as predictors of outcome in a trial conducted in Finnish school health and welfare services to identify factors associating to symptom reduction and remission after a brief depression treatment. A total of 55 12–16-year-olds with mild to moderate depression received six sessions of either interpersonal counseling for adolescents (IPC-A) or brief psychosocial support (BPS). Both interventions resulted in clinical improvement at end of treatment and 3- and 6-mo…
Does level of leisure time physical activity, in a sample of patients with depression, predict health care utilization over a subsequent 5-year perio…
2018
Objectives: The main aim of this study was to investigate the association between leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and health care utilization (HCU) and furthermore, socio-demographic and clinical factors according to LTPA level among depressed patients based on data drawn from the Finnish Depression and Metabolic Syndrome in Adults (FDMSA)-study (2009-2016). Methods: 447 depressed patients aged 35-65 from municipalities within the Central Finland Hospital District participated in this study. Depressive symptoms (DS) were determined with the Beck Depression Inventory (a 10 points) and the psychiatric diagnosis confirmed with a diagnostic interview (M.I.N.I.). Severity of depression was…
Sport burnout inventory - dual career form for student-athletes : assessing validity and reliability in a finnish sample of adolescent athletes
2020
The pressure of pursuing an athletic career simultaneously with education may set adolescent student-athletes at risk for sport and school burnout. Although the 2 life domains of student-athletes are strongly intertwined, so far, there has not been an instrument for investigating sport burnout parallel to school burnout. The aim of the present study was to introduce a sport burnout measure for adolescents in a dual career context and investigate its validity and reliability by using confirmatory factor analysis. Methods The participants were 391 student-athletes (51% females) who filled in a questionnaire of sport burnout and background variables in the beginning of upper secondary school. …
