The determinants and barriers of e-Government Adoption in the Municipality of Palermo

2014

La costante innovazione tecnologica fornisce nuovi spunti per la creazione di network efficienti e lo sviluppo di nuovi business. Anche la Pubblica Amministrazione (PA) vuole sfruttare tali opportunità. In particolare, la PA, attraverso l’implementazione di una strategia di e-Government può mirare a una maggiore efficienza, alla riduzione dell’errore umano e delle frodi. Tuttavia, non si tratta di un mero cambiamento di strumenti. Il passaggio a un’Amministrazione Digitale richiede un cambio di approccio manageriale. Partendo dalla somministrazione di un questionario (sul sito istituzionale del Comune di Palermo, 389 risposte utili) che ha confermato la poca consapevolezza dei cittadini rig…

Does an early onset and continuous chain of rehabilitation improve the long-term functional outcome of patients with severe traumatic brain injury?

2012

Published version of an article published in the journal: Journal of Neurotrauma. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1089/neu.2011.1811 There are currently no international guidelines regarding treatment in the early rehabilitation phase for persons with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), and only a few studies have investigated the effect of integrating rehabilitation into acute TBI care. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether a continuous chain of rehabilitation that begins with the acute phase could improve the functional outcome of severe TBI patients, compared to a broken chain of rehabilitation that starts in the sub-acute phase of TBI. A total of 61 su…

Individual vulnerability to stress is associated with increased demand for intravenous heroin self-administration in rats

2019

AbstractOpioid use is a widespread epidemic, and traumatic stress exposure is a critical risk factor in opioid use and relapse. There is a significant gap in our understanding of how stress contributes to heroin use, and there are limited studies investigating individual differences underlying stress reactivity and subsequent stress-induced heroin self-administration. We hypothesized that greater individual vulnerability to stress would predict higher demand for heroin self-administration in a within-subjects rodent model of stress and heroin use comorbidity. Male rats were exposed to inescapable intermittent swim stress and individual biological (corticosterone) or behavioral (open field, …

Los bonos-residencia en la Comunidad Valenciana: su efecto sobre el empleo

2002

Tradicionalmente, la financiación de las residencias de ancianos en España se ha venido realizando mediante dos mecanismos: la provisión directa de los centros públicos y los subsidios a los centros privados y del tercer sector. La Comunidad Valenciana decidió incorporar en 1996 un nuevo instrumento de financiación, que hasta ahora no se había usado en España, denominado bonoresidencia. El principal propósito de este artículo es averiguar si la implantación de este instrumento ha colaborado a incrementar y mejorar las condiciones del empleo en este sector.

Earnings management to exceed thresholds in continental and Anglo-Saxon accounting models: The British and French cases

2017

International audience; The purpose of this paper is to compare the extent to which French and British firms manage their earnings in order to avoid losses, decreases in earnings and earnings below the forecasts of analysts. Further, this study aims to investigate the factors that potentially influence earnings management to exceed thresholds with reference to the Anglo-Saxon and continental accounting models. Britain and France, correspondingly, belong to those different socio-economic environments. Based on a panel data of 1771 French and 2057 British firm-year observations during the period 2002–2012, we show that all firms considered manage earnings to beat zero and last year’s earnings…

Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Mary Wollstonecraft on the imagination

2017

The article compares Rousseau’s and Wollstonecraft’s views on the imagination. It is argued that though Wollstonecraft was evidently influenced by Rousseau, there are significant differences between their views. These differences are grounded in their different views on the faculty of reason and its relation to the passions. Whereas Rousseau characterizes reason as a derivative faculty, grounded in the more primary faculty of perfectibility, Wollstonecraft perceives reason as the faculty defining human nature. It is argued that contrary to what is often assumed, Wollstonecraft’s conception of the imagination is not primarily characterized by its Romantic features, but rather by the close af…

Gender Digital Divide and Education in Latin America: A Literature Review

2021

Gender equity in education is one of the main targets for social justice and sustainable development. This literature review, from a gender approach, was conducted to understand how the gender digital divide (GDD) in information and communication technologies (ICT) and education are related in Latin American countries. A total of 28 articles have been analyzed as a satisfactory sample of the scientific literature to examine how this relation is explored and its influence, to acknowledge political stakeholders, as well as provide information and proposals to address the digital gender divide in education research in this region. The results show the need to develop research from the pedagogi…
