Sculture senesi del XIV e degli inizi del XV secolo in Sicilia: Goro di Gregorio e il monumento funebre del vescovo Guidotto d’Abbiate della Cattedra…

2020

Il saggio esamina il monumento funebre del prelato milanese Guidotto d’Abbiate che guidò l’arcidiocesi di Messina dal 1304 sino al 1333. L’Arcivescovo, che commissionò l’opera nel 1326 allo scultore senese Goro di Gregorio, si dedicò al progetto “di abbellimento” della Cattedrale della Città dello Stretto dove è custodito il monumento. A quest’ultimo manufatto potrebbe appartenere la Madonna con il Bambino, detta degli Storpi, ora custodita nel Museo Regionale Interdisciplinare di Messina. Il saggio, infine, contestualizza la committenza indagando anche le sculture del XIV e degli inizi del XV custodite in Sicilia e realizzate da artisti isolani e in modo particolare toscani. The essay exam…

Specyfika partyjnej rywalizacji politycznej w wyborach do samorządu terytorialnego w roku 2014 na przykładzie województwa opolskiego

2017

Celem artykułu jest ustalenie, jak przebiega rywalizacja polityczna na poziomie samorządowym w woj. opolskim, tzn. czy lokalne podmioty skutecznie współzawodniczą z partiami politycznymi i czy ostateczny rezultat wpisuje się w specyfikę elekcji na poziomie subnarodowym (tzn., czy upartyjnienie wzrasta wraz ze szczeblem samorządu), czy też odznacza się jakimiś cechami charakterystycznymi. W tym celu przeprowadzona została analiza statystyczna wyników wyborów samorządowych 2014 roku, uwzględniająca partyjne komitety wyborcze oraz komitet wyborczy Mniejszości Niemieckiej, który traktujemy jak protopartię. Analizie podlegała zarówno liczba kandydatów, jak i liczba wybranych radnych oraz wójtów,…

Understanding the sense of community and continuance intention in virtual communities: The role of commitment and type of community

2019

Virtual communities (VCs) have become essential in current organizations and society, and so their sustainability is a topic of interest for researchers and practitioners. We focus on the sense of virtual community (SoVC) and commitment as relevant antecedents in achieving the success and maintenance of different types of VCs (communities of interest, virtual learning communities, and virtual communities of practice). Specifically, this study examines a moderated mediation model in which the type of virtual community moderates the indirect effect of a SoVC on the intention to continue through the perceived commitment of the users of the VC. The sample consists of 299 members of Virtual comm…

Social Media, Hate Speech and Genocide: An Assessment under International Criminal Law

L'apport de la communication engageante et des représentations sociales dans le cadre de la promotion de l'éco-mobilité

2011

The purpose of this thesis was to test the applicability of binding communication in the case of car use reduction. The first two studies (1 & 2) bring out the relationship between an individual and his mobility. Our results lead us to consider a system of double bind between the challenges of sustainable development and daily obligations. The individual recognizes the negative impact of car use on the environment but justifies his behavior by an important need for flexibility. Three studies have tested the effectiveness of procedures such as commitment (Study 3) and binding communication (studies 4 and 5). A procedure of binding communication has been particularly effective. It combined a …

Implementation of mindfulness-acceptance-commitment protocol for injured athletes : an action research study

2017

Mindfulness-Acceptance-Commitment (MAC) protocol has been implemented and studied for the purpose of performance enhancement with several positive results in the past 10 years. More recently, an increasing, but limited, number of MAC studies have also been done in the field of sport injury prevention and rehabilitation. Since MAC is a protocol with flexible implementation, sport psychology consultants, especially novice, can be confused by a wide range of its strategies. It is important to study implementation because it doesn’t provide only information about the effect but also detailed contents and mechanisms of an intervention, which will reduce variability and fidelity of it. The purpos…

Rehearsing to control depressive symptoms through a behavior change support system

2013

Depressive symptoms are generally coupled with distress and high treatment costs. We present our on-going research on a Web-based behavior change support system, which utilizes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a rehearsal tool. We present a summarized account of the research setting, studied persuasive software features, and a brief account of initial data analysis. Our work presents implications on design interventions for mental well-being and human-computer interaction.

Reciprocal commitment in academic careers? : Finnish implications and international trends

2016

This study explores the nature of reciprocal commitment in academic careers. The article is based on a survey conducted in autumn 2013 among fixed-term employees at eight major universities in Finland (N = 810). The analysis is focusing on researchers who have a doctoral degree and who are working on a fixed-term contract at their university (n = 308). According to our study, researchers experience their working conditions are insecure and many of them have considered leaving their universities. Despite the fact that they find their work meaningful their uncertain and poor working conditions are related to their thoughts of leaving the university. In addition in many of the cases leaving th…
