How Banks Disclose Market Risk Information: an Empirical Analysis on a Sample of Italian Banks.
The topic of this paper is market risk reporting in banking, and its purpose is to provide a methodology to evaluate the qualitative and quantitative profiles of market risk disclosure. This methodology, based on a hybrid scoring approach, aims to assess the market risk disclosure in banking. In this paper, I use content analysis to conduct an empirical research on a sample of Italian banks. The paper provides evidences that banks differ in their market risk reporting, even though they are subject to similar regulatory requirements and accounting standards. The paper also shows that there is room to improve various aspects of market risk disclosure.

Violenza di prossimità. La vittima, il carnefice, lo spettatore e il "grande occhio"
2013
Il volume trova il suo incipit nella constatazione di come, rispetto al passato, la violenza di genere non è rivolta a donne estranee al contesto dei propri carnefici, bensì alle stesse partner – alle donne quindi più prossime ‒ con cui essi condividono una relazione di intimità. L’autrice indica tale violenza, con una scelta terminologica di campo, come “ “violenza di prossimità” per sottolineare come essa venga agita dal “più vicino nella reciproca referenza”. Essa è autosufficiente (1), autoimmune (2) ed escludente il conflitto (3). Si innesta in un contesto oppressivo e rituale, costituendo “quindi” l’asse portante della relazione e definendo pur nella varietà delle modalità – fisiche, …
Content analysis of Spanish judgements addressing the sexual transmission of HIV: 1996-2016.
2018
This study performed a content analysis of the language of the Spanish judgements addressing the sexual transmission of HIV in order to determine its possible interrelationship with HIV-related stigma. All judgements and writs dictated by Spanish penal and civil jurisdictions between 1981 and December 2016 were obtained through a systematic search of the Spanish legal databases. The inclusion criterion was that the possible transmission of HIV was judged as an individual infraction, regardless of whether other infractions were involved. Twenty judgements were selected and analysed through direct content analysis assisted by the software MAXQDA 12. The majority of the cases (85%) were brough…

Closure to “Experimental Study of the Stage-Discharge Relationship for an Upstream Inclined Grid with Longitudinal Bars” by C. Di Stefano and V. Ferro
2014
The discusser would like to thank the authors of the original paper for investigating the outflow process of an upstream inclined grid with longitudinal bars using the dimensional analysis and the incomplete self-similarity theory. The discusser, however, would like to add a few points. Using the theoretical analysis the authors of the original paper showed that a power equation can be used for establishing the stage-discharge equation of an upstream inclined grid with longitudinal bars. The authors of the original paper also showed that the coefficient and exponent of the power equation depend on the slope angle and the void ratio. They proposed a stage-discharge equation
The value of value: Further excursions on the meaning and role of customer value
2011
Grounded on fundamental marketing principles, the concept of customer value has been revisited and refined by academicians and practitioners for the last 30 years. However, research devoted to achieving a consistent theoretical and conceptual development of valuerelated concepts has proceeded apace without ever reaching full closure. The present essay seeks reasons behind remaining deficiencies in value-related research and offers a review intended to move our understanding of customer value toward what promises to become a more enlightened future. The topic of value is approached by theoretical analysis and conceptual development. First, ‘‘the challenge’’ of value research is presented: th…
Loudness Perceptions Influence Feelings of Interpersonal Closeness and Protect Against Detrimental Psychological Effects of Social Exclusion.
2021
We propose that perceptions of auditory loudness and interpersonal closeness are bidirectionally related. Across 12 experiments (total N = 2,219; 10 preregistered; with Singaporean, British, U.S. American, and Australian participants), we demonstrated that louder audio made people feel physically (Study 1a) and socially (Study 1b) closer to others, presumably because loudness activates interpersonal closeness-related concepts implicitly (Studies 1c and 1d). This loudness–interpersonal closeness effect was observed across diverse samples (Studies 2a, 3a, and S1), for longer listening intervals (Study 2b), and in natural settings (Studies 3a and 3b). Conversely, individuals made to feel soci…
