Nuovi modelli formativi per gli insegnanti in un’ottica di green economy: una riflessione sulla scuola multiculturale
2022
Il contributo propone un’ipotesi di ricerca pedagogica, con elementi teorici e metodologici, per le scuole multiculturali al fine di dar vita ad attività educative, formative e di orientamento per giovani migranti, mirate alla transizione ecologica. Il tutto dovrà realizzarsi in un’ottica di alleanza educativa con le famiglie di origine, ove presenti sul territorio ospitante, e le comunità di accoglienza. L’Agenda 2030, adottata dalla comunità internazionale nel 2015 per lo sviluppo sostenibile, pone le odierne migrazioni come “elemento fondamentale dello sviluppo sostenibile”. In tal senso, il PNR - Programma Nazionale per la Ricerca 2021-2027, nell’articolazione 8 dell'ambito di ricerca e…
Appropriate management of growth hormone deficiency during the age of transition: an Italian Delphi consensus statement
2022
Growth hormone deficiency (GHD) describes the impairment of growth hormone (GH) secretion by the pituitary somatotroph cells. GHD may be congenital, with causes, including genetic alterations and structural brain malformations, or acquired, including midline tumours, cranial irradiation, traumatic brain injury, central nervous system infections and inflammatory conditions. GHD in children is characterised by short stature, delayed bone maturation and abnormalities in substrate metabolism, body composition, physical and psychosocial functioning, all of which improve with recombinant human GH (rhGH) therapy. The diagnosis of GHD is based on clinical signs and symptoms, biochemistry and imagin…
Prenatal Exposure to Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol Affects Hippocampus-Related Cognitive Functions in the Adolescent Rat Offspring: Focus on Specific Marke…
2023
Previous evidence suggests that prenatal exposure to THC (pTHC) derails the neurodevelopmental trajectories towards a vulnerable phenotype for impaired emotional regulation and limbic memory. Here we aimed to investigate pTHC effect on hippocampus-related cognitive functions and markers of neuroplasticity in adolescent male offspring. Wistar rats were exposed to THC (2 mg/kg) from gestational day 5 to 20 and tested for spatial memory, object recognition memory and reversal learning in the reinforce-motivated Can test and in the aversion-driven Barnes maze test; locomotor activity and exploration, anxiety-like behaviour, and response to natural reward were assessed in the open field, elevate…
Actualisation des références nutritionnelles françaises en vitamines et minéraux
2021
En 2016, l’Anses a proposé une mise à jour des références nutritionnelles pour la population adulte (femmes de 18 à 54 ans et hommes de 18 à 64 ans) dans le cadre de l’actualisation des repères de consommation alimentaire (saisine 2012-SA-0103). Par la suite, des rapports dédiés aux repères de consommation alimentaire pour les populations spécifiques (personnes âgées, enfants, femmes enceintes et allaitantes) ont été publiés en 2019, sans toutefois quede nouvelles références nutritionnelles ne soient définies par l’agence.Par ailleurs, la mise à jour de 2016 n’a concerné que les vitamines et minéraux indispensables pour lesquelles des données de consommation étaient disponibles. De ce fait,…
Representación de funciones de dos variables mediante la modelización de la intensidad de sonido utilizando iPads®. Un estudio exploratorio
2015
En este trabajo de investigación se presenta un estudio exploratorio sobre modelización de problemas reales con estudiantes de cuarto de ESO. El objetivo del trabajo es explorar conceptos y procedimientos matemáticos elaborados por los alumnos relacionados con funciones de dos variables. En particular, nos interesa la representación cartesiana tridimensional de este tipo de funciones. Los alumnos utilizarán el iPad® como herramienta digital interactiva básica para la modelización. This research work presents an exploratory study about real problem modelling of a real situation in a grade tenth student group. The aim of the work is to explore the mathematical concepts and procedures related …
Pašuztvertā intelekta saistība ar akadēmisko pašefektivitāti un akadēmiskajiem sasniegumiem vispārizglītojošo skolu jauniešiem
2020
Pētījuma mērķis bija izpētīt saistību starp pašuztverto intelektu, akadēmisko pašefektivitāti un akadēmiskajiem sasniegumiem vispārizglītojošo skolu jauniešiem, kā arī veikt atšķirību izpēti skolēnu izlases apakšgrupās ar atšķirīgiem pašuztvertā intelekta domāšanas veidiem. Pētījuma izlasi veido 165 jaunieši vecumā no 15 līdz 19 gadiem (M = 16,75, SD = 0,90), no tiem 80 (48,50%) meitenes un 85 (51,50%) zēni, kas mācās 10.-12. klasē piecās vidusskolās. Pētījumam piemīt aprakstošs korelatīvs un starpgrupu analīzes dizains. Pētījumā tika adaptētas un izmantotas divas aptaujas - Pašuztvertā intelekta skala bērniem (Implicit Theories of Intelligence Scale for Children (ITIS), Blackwell, Trzesnie…
The Adolescent Label Impact Index in a Multicentric Observational Study. Have the Tobacco Advertisements an Impact on the Adolescents?
2020
Background: Pictorial warnings may contribute to lower attractiveness of smoking, particularly among adolescents. The present study compared the impact of two different label styles of tobacco product warnings (textual and pictorial) among adolescents in a new standardized way, using the Adolescent Label Impact Index (ALII). Methods: A school-based cross-sectional study was conducted. Adolescent aged 10–20 years completed an online questionnaire. The ALII score was used to assess the impact of only-textual (ALII-T) and pictorial advertisements (ALII-P). Results: A total of 1,759 students (68.4% response-rate) declared that graphic warnings have a significant impact than textual ones (p <…
Inequality in Healthcare Utilization in Italy: How Important Are Barriers to Access?
2022
With the ageing population, equitable access to medical care has proven to be paramount for the effective and efficient management of all diseases. Healthcare access can be hindered by cost barriers for drugs or exams, long waiting lists or difficult access to the place where the needed healthcare service is provided. The aim of this paper is to investigate whether the probability of facing one of these barriers varies among individuals with different socio-economic status and care needs, controlling for geographical variability. Methods. The sample for this study included 9629 interviews with Italian individuals, aged 15 and over, from the second wave (2015) of the European Health Intervie…
Revista de psicodidáctica
2017
Título, resumen y palabras clave en español y en inglés Resumen basado en el de la publicación Existen evidencias de que el apoyo social de la familia, los iguales y el profesorado influye sobre la implicación escolar del alumnado, su éxito académico y satisfacción con la escuela. Se busca probar, mediante ecuaciones estructurales, los efectos del apoyo académico percibido y la implicación escolar sobre la satisfacción con la escuela. Se administra una batería de instrumentos a 2028 estudiantes de origen angoleño, con edades comprendidas entre 14 y 22 años (M = 17.4; DT = 2.3). Los resultados muestran la influencia que ejerce el apoyo académico percibido del profesorado, la familia y los ig…
Plasma selenium levels and oxidative stress biomarkers: a gene-environment interaction population-based study.
2014
The role of selenium exposure in preventing chronic disease is controversial, especially in selenium-repleted populations. At high concentrations, selenium exposure may increase oxidative stress. Studies evaluating the interaction of genetic variation in genes involved in oxidative stress pathways and selenium are scarce. We evaluated the cross-sectional association of plasma selenium concentrations with oxidative stress levels, measured as oxidized to reduced glutathione ratio (GSSG/GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxo-dG) in urine, and the interacting role of genetic variation in oxidative stress candidate genes, in a representative sample of 1445 men and women…
