La patria potestad prorrogada y la patria potestad rehabilitada en el nuevo proyecto de ley de reforma de la legislación civil y procesal para el apo…
2021
It is intended to analyze and reflect in the present work about the institution of the extension of parental authority and parental authority rehabilitated in the new regulation in the Draft Law that reforms the civil and procedural legislation to support people with disabilities in the exercise of their legal capacity. In this project, the extended parental authority and the rehabilitated parental authority are eliminated from the scope of disability, following a criterion that demands the treatment of people with disabilities with the attention that their specific situation requires, eliminating a regime that seems contrary to the system of promoting the autonomy of adults with disabiliti…
Asymptotic potentials and rate constants in the adiabatic capture centrifugal sudden approximation for X + OH(X-2 Pi) -> OX + H(S-2) reactions where …
2012
International audience; New long-range multipolar coefficients for the X + OH(X-2 Pi) interactions, where X = O(P-3), S(P-3) and N(S-4), are given here. They have been evaluated on the basis or monomer properties of the atoms and OH such as the dipole and quadrupole moments, and the static and dynamic polarizabilities. Each matrix element of the 18 x 18 (8 x 8 for N + OH) quasi-degenerate asymptotic potentials has been built up by means of the perturbation theory up to second order including or not the fine-structure of O, S and OH. The adiabatic potentials, obtained after diagonalization of the full matrix, show many crossings and complex behaviors near the asymptotes. Using the entrance c…
La réussite en éducation musicale : des facteurs individuels aux facteurs contextuels
2007
This study aim to improve knowledge about individual and contextual factors of success in music education during elementary level's first year. There are three main subjects : acquisitions' social inequalities, teacher-effect and children' interest about in class musical activities. Two musical tests (one at the beginning of the year, another at the end) were administrated to 1184 students living in Burgondy. Questionnaries completed by various actors (teachers and students) gave a lot of data. Data were analysed with multivariate models. Our results demonstrated that 1°) musical practices develop abilities and explain social origin's effect on musical acquisitions at the beginning of the y…
L'approccio al tema
2019
La ricerca su Abitudini e stili di vita dei ragazzi e delle ragazze a Palermo ha rappresentato un momento di riflessione, di studio e di indagine sul tema della povertà educativa. Partendo dal quadro disegnato dall’indagine desk, l’obiettivo principale dell’indagine field è stato quello di studiare empiricamente il territorio, in modo da individuare con maggiore analiticità i beneficiari ed i contenuti specifici da approfondire. Per tale motivo, la ricerca è stata finalizzata ad approfondire il tema partendo dalle abitudini e gli stili di vita dei ragazzi e delle ragazze frequentanti le terze classi delle scuole secondarie di primo grado del territorio del Comune di Palermo, tenendo nello s…
SINGLE-TRIAL BASED INDEPENDENT COMPONENT ANALYSIS ON MISMATCH NEGATIVITY IN CHILDREN
2010
Independent component analysis (ICA) does not follow the superposition rule. This motivates us to study a negative event-related potential — mismatch negativity (MMN) estimated by the single-trial based ICA (sICA) and averaged trace based ICA (aICA), respectively. To sICA, an optimal digital filter (ODF) was used to remove low-frequency noise. As a result, this study demonstrates that the performance of the sICA+ODF and aICA could be different. Moreover, MMN under sICA+ODF fits better with the theoretical expectation, i.e., larger deviant elicits larger MMN peak amplitude.
Attitudes of Primary School Teachers in Three Western Countries Toward Learning Disabilities
2016
In recent years, teachers in Western countries have developed beliefs and attitudes related to working with students with specific learning disabilities (LD) that may be critical in shaping their educational practices with them; however, their beliefs and attitudes differ across political and geographical contexts and may be influenced by specific contextual circumstances and national legislation. This study examines these issues by comparing beliefs and attitudes among 557 primary school teachers from specific areas of three countries (Italy, Spain, and the United States). Results from this study support the hypothesis that, in general, teachers in these areas are sufficiently well inform…
Cognitive and non-cognitive factors in educational and occupational outcomes-Specific to reading disability?
2020
Low education and unemployment are common adult-age outcomes associated with childhood RD (c-RD). However, adult-age cognitive and non-cognitive factors associated with different outcomes remain unknown. We studied whether these outcomes are equally common among individuals with c-RD and controls and whether these outcomes are related to adult-age literacy skills or cognitive and non-cognitive factors or their interaction with c-RD. We examined adult participants with c-RD (n = 48) and their matched controls (n = 37). Low education was more common among c-RD than the controls, whereas long-term unemployment was equally common in both groups. Moreover, adult-age literacy skills, cognitive sk…
Whole genome paired-end sequencing elucidates functional and phenotypic consequences of balanced chromosomal rearrangement in patients with developme…
2019
BackgroundBalanced chromosomal rearrangements associated with abnormal phenotype are rare events, but may be challenging for genetic counselling, since molecular characterisation of breakpoints is not performed routinely. We used next-generation sequencing to characterise breakpoints of balanced chromosomal rearrangements at the molecular level in patients with intellectual disability and/or congenital anomalies.MethodsBreakpoints were characterised by a paired-end low depth whole genome sequencing (WGS) strategy and validated by Sanger sequencing. Expression study of disrupted and neighbouring genes was performed by RT-qPCR from blood or lymphoblastoid cell line RNA.ResultsAmong the 55 pat…
Behavioral Precursors to Accidents and Resulting Physical Impairment
1995
The main goal of the study was to determine, within a model of emotional and behavioral regulation, if there are developmental precursors to accidents and resulting physical impairment. Data collected at ages 8 and 14 with 147 males and 142 females using peer nomination and teacher rating were related to the number of types of accidents the subjects had been in and impairment as a result of an accident by the age of 27 when the subjects were interviewed on their health. The results showed that 44% of the men and 14% of the women had been in an accident. Severe effects on health were obtained for 19% of the men and 5% of the women. Accidents and impairment were most frequent among individual…
Phenotype associated with TAF2 biallelic mutations: a clinical description of four individuals and review of the literature
2021
International audience; Transcription factor IID is a multimeric protein complex that is essential for the initiation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. One of its critical components, the TATA-binding protein-associated factor 2, is encoded by the gene TAF2. Pathogenic variants of this gene have been shown to be responsible for the Mental retardation, autosomal recessive 40 syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by severe intellectual disability, postnatal microcephaly, pyramidal signs and thin corpus callosum. Until now, only three families have been reported separately. Here we report four individuals, from two unrelated families, who present with severe intellectual disability and…
