Abbagli e abusi: esperienze plurime di violenza di prossimità fra le migranti in Sicilia
2018
The authors analyse some of the role positions found in gender dynamics among migrants, throwing light on possible processes by which mechanisms of submission to and normalisation of gender violence seem to have been internalised by these victims of proxemic violence, emphasising the viscous links existing between vulnerability and resilience.
Dalla parte di Caino? Aspetti teorici, dati empirici, stereotipi e politiche di intervento sul caso degli uomini maltrattanti
2021
Partendo dai dati empirici raccolti nel corso di un progetto Prin su Rappresentazioni sociali della violenza sulle donne: il caso del femminicidio in Italia – e, in particolare, dai risultati emersi dallo studio sulle rappresentazioni del femminicidio nei procedimenti giudiziari – il saggio affronta il controverso tema del profilo dell’uomo maltrattante intorno al quale si concentrano stereotipi e timori sociali ma la cui conoscenza è un tassello indispensabile per affrontare – con il necessario “distacco analitico” – il fenomeno della violenza di genere, evitando derive esorcizzanti o altrettanto pericolosi scivoloni paternalistici, patologizzanti e moralizzanti. Il quesito centrale riguar…

Esteroide anabolizanteak. Goi mailako kirol alorretik gimnasioetara
2013
El presente estudio pretende caracterizar sociológicamente el consumidor recreativo de esteroides anabolizantes en tierras valencianas. La investigación se desarrolla así a partir de la aplicación de una metodología explícitamente cualitativa y la puesta en práctica de la técnica de la entrevista semiestructurada. El perfil sociológico del consumidor recreativo de esteroides anabolizantes se caracteriza por un bajo nivel de estudios, cierta inestabilidad laboral vinculada a menudo con el mundo del ocio nocturno y de la seguridad tanto privada como pública, problemas familiares, gusto por las discotecas y la playa, y frecuentes rupturas en sus relaciones de pareja, entre otros aspectos. Se c…
Kryzys w świecie, kryzys w Kościele
2020
The current situation in the world shows symptoms of an acute crisis of human identity and activity developing in many spheres: ecology, economy, education, social life, or the Church. The individual chapters of the present volume deal with these topics. In Chapter 1 (A crisis in the Bible), the Rev. Andrzej Demitrów analyzes a particular crisis situation between God and man as told by the Bible: the fall of man in the Garden of Eden (Gen. 2–3), “the original sin”, branded mankind with evil tendencies. The second chapter (A crisis in the dissemination and justification of the Catholic morality) contributed by the Rev. Janusz Podzielny, presents a reflection on the traditional understanding …
Alcohol Abuse Mediates the Association between Baseline T/C Ratio and Anger Expression in Intimate Partner Violence Perpetrators.
2015
The imbalance between testosterone (T) and cortisol (C) levels has been proposed as a possible marker of risk for intimate partner violence (IPV). Moreover, it could be related to a high probability of adopting risky behaviors such as alcohol abuse which, in turn, promotes the onset of IPV. This study tested the potential mediating effect of alcohol consumption on the relationship between baseline T/C ratio and anger expression in IPV perpetrators and non-violent controls. Alcohol consumption was higher in the former than controls. A high baseline T/C ratio was only associated with high anger expression in IPV perpetrators, and this association was mediated by high alcohol consumption. Thus…

2018
Violence in close relationships with children raises intriguing questions for our society. The sense making may go on in a fragile balance between possible false accusations and possible neglect of needed concerns. This study explores contexts where such concerns are at stake. From the vantage point of outlining main contributors towards a dialogical understanding of human meaning making, the study explores how this evolves when issues of child sexual abuse, violence, and maltreatment are at stake. The study examines three naturalistic settings: (1) A Norwegian university hospital’s specialty mental health service for children and adolescents, including all cases (N = 20) referred in two ye…
Economic Concentrations vs State of Competitive Space
2017
Achieving market performance is the main objective of companies in business transactions. Developing competitiveness and gaining a large market share is conditional on achieving the proposed objectives. A way to increase the market power is to do mergers or takeovers. They can be vertical or horizontal, depending on the type of activity realized by the parties. Effects resulting from the economic mergers made under certain conditions, can distort the competitive environment on the market, with a serious damage. This leads to the need to analyze them in the compatibility with the competitive environment. Permission to achieve a merger occurs after a comprehensive study of cases considering t…
Modulation of the Endocannabinoids N-Arachidonoylethanolamine (AEA) and 2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) on Executive Functions in Human.
2013
Animal studies point to an implication of the endocannabinoid system on executive functions. In humans, several studies have suggested an association between acute or chronic use of exogenous cannabinoids (Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol) and executive impairments. However, to date, no published reports establish the relationship between endocannabinoids, as biomarkers of the cannabinoid neurotransmission system, and executive functioning in humans. The aim of the present study was to explore the association between circulating levels of plasma endocannabinoids N-arachidonoylethanolamine (AEA) and 2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and executive functions (decision making, response inhibition and cognit…
