Phenomenal Change And Adolescents’ Psychological Disinterest In Commitments: A Concern For The Family Traditions
2015
The phenomenal changes such as biological, physical, social, technological and global changes, vitally affect the psychological uncertainty and pre-occupation in the minds of the adolescents. (Leckman et al., 2002, p.324). A lethargic attitude, avoidance of responsibility creeps into their system during this period, leading them to more socialising and less psychological commitments. (Jakubowski & Dembo, 2004). Researches show that Adolescents who were isolating themselves from family events and desiring only social events outside family tend to develop ‘low levels of commitment and self-regulatory resources, and they perceived their parents as being low in trust, openness, and supervision.…
A Model of Goal Dynamics in Organizations: a case study
2009
The purpose of the present work is to build a suitable system dynamics model for goal dynamics in organizations, as proposed by Barlas & Yasarcan (2008). The proposed model does not bear any ambition of being exhaustive: the main objective of this paper is to propose a model of goal dynamics in which Goal Setting, Management by Objectives and Training are viewed as human resource practices able to enhance workers’ goal commitment, and therefore, improve organizational performance. In the first part of this paper, an analysis of the Goal Setting Theory and the role of goal setting practices, in bettering worker’s performance, are stressed. In the second part, a case-study, the causal loop an…

Il volume, che dimostra l’unicità di preziosi manufatti siciliani dei secoli passati, focalizza, per la prima volta, l’analisi su opere d’arte sacra, che, forgiati in oro, argento e rame ed arricchiti dal corallo, utilizzato con forte valenza simbolica, da smalti policromi e da pietre dure, sono custoditi nelle diverse e ricche chiese di Gangi (Pa), centro delle alte Madonie.

Luigi Cremona’s Years in Bologna: From Research to Social Commitment
2011
Luigi Cremona (1830–1903), unanimously considered to be the man who laid the foundations of the prestigious Italian school of Algebraic Geometry, was active at the University of Bologna from October 1860, when assigned by the Minister Terenzio Mamiani (1799–1885) to cover the Chair of Higher Geometry, until September 1867 when Francesco Brioschi (1824–1897) called him to the Politecnico di Milano. The “Bolognese years” were Cremona’s richest and most significant in terms of scientific production, and, at the same time, were the years when he puts the basis for its most important interventions in the social and political life of the “newborn” kingdom of Italy. In this article we present thes…
La elección del canal de queja en el contexto minorista omnicanal

Con datos de 702 compradores de un panel online, obtenemos que el efecto de lock-in o retención del canal es …
Gender presence on the editorial boards of journals in the Women's Studies subject category
2022
In the scientific journals, being part of the editorial boards, including the journals' members and chief editors, involves holding positions of power and responsibility that affect the running of a journal. Until now, these positions have usually been held by men in most scientific disciplines. In this study, the gender composition in the editorial board members (EBMs) and editor-in-chief (ECs) of the 45 Women's Studies journals classified in the Journal Citation Report (JCR) was analyzed. The following indicators were calculated: the gender distribution of ECs and EBMs by journal, publisher, country, and quartile of the journal in the JCR; the geographical area of the members; and the gen…
Relationships Between Ethnic Identity, Ethnic Attitudes, and Acculturative Stress in Tunisian Individuals in Early and Middle Adolescence
2016
Framed from an integrative approach, the current article examined the associations between ethnic identity exploration (EIE), ethnic identity commitment (EIC), and acculturative stress by investigating the mediating role of ethnic attitudes (i.e., in-group favoritism and out-group derogation) in these relationships. Additionally, the moderating role of age was analyzed. A multiple-group path analysis was performed on data collected from 256 Tunisians in early and 248 in middle adolescence living in Italy, which is an interesting and understudied immigrant group characterized by similarities and differences with the host population. In younger adolescents, EIE and EIC were indirectly and po…
