Omontrasfobia: bavaglio a misura dei genitori
2020
Dietro la proposta di Legge dell’on. Zan c’è un attacco alla libertà di pensiero tutelata dall’art. 21 della Costituzione italiana e una limitazione alla libertà educativa dei genitori. Nei Paesi dove leggi analoghe sono in vigore lo Stato è già intervenuto a modificare l’orientamento sessuale dei giovani appoggiandosi unicamente su psicologi e medici favorevoli alla fluidità sessuale e senza il consenso parentale. Behind the Zan law proposal, there is an attack on freedom of thought protected by art. 21 of the Italian Constitution and a restriction on the educational freedom of parents. In countries, where similar laws already exist, the State has already intervened to change the sexual or…
« Les ‘‘Européens’’, minorité protégée dans les colonies françaises »
2017
International audience; Les « Européens » formaient-ils une minorité dans les colonies ? Qui plus est, une minorité protégée ? Dans les textes régissant les colonies françaises, le terme « Européen » renvoyait aux Français d’origine métropolitaine et aux étrangers des pays européens naturalisés français. Si les « Européens » étaient numériquement moins nombreux que les natifs des colonies, ils entendaient s’imposer en tant que communauté référente. Minorité au sens numérique mais une minorité dominante. En effet, le droit colonial français, a minima, protégea les « Européens » ; a maxima, il assura leur domination, principe contraire à l’égalité républicaine et à la vision universaliste et …

Tackling racism seriously: Human rights and the underpinnings of ethnic recognition
2017
Ante el persistente reto del racismo, los estados de Europa occidental están buscando maneras de mejorar las actitudes de su población hacia los inmigrantes no blancos procedentes de los países en desarrollo, así como hacia sus descendientes. Sin embargo, dos importantes obstáculos dificultan la puesta en marcha de ambiciosas reformas antirracistas. Por un lado, la enorme brecha entre el número de votantes nativos y de origen extranjero, combinada con la relativa inmunidad de los primeros a la discriminación étnica, hace electoralmente difícil mantener el tema en la agenda política, especialmente con la competencia de partidos de extrema derecha y retórica xenófoba. Por otra parte, los part…

Intranasal oxytocin decreases fear generalization in males, but does not modulate discrimination threshold
2021
Background: A previously acquired fear response often spreads to perceptually or conceptually close stimuli or contexts. This process, known as fear generalization, facilitates the avoidance of danger, and dysregulations in this process play an important role in anxiety disorders. Oxytocin (OT) has been shown to modulate fear learning, yet effects on fear generalization remain unknown. Methods: We employed a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, between-subject design during which healthy male participants received either intranasal OT or placebo (PLC) following fear acquisition and before fear generalization with concomitant acquisition of skin conductance responses (SCRs). Twenty-…

Les descendants d'immigrés effectuent autant de démarches de recherche d'emploi que la population majoritaire. Certains groupes se distinguent par leur propension à activer plus ou moins certains canaux…
Discrimination of serial auditory patterns in rats : roles of configural and elemental associations
2011
In order to test whether rats could discriminate between tone sequences, food deprived rats were given appetitive discrimination conditioning with repeated ascending or descending series of musical notes serving as conditioned stimuli (CSs). The other type of tone sequence was reinforced as the other was followed by nothing. In Experiment 1, each series of 8 tones formed a 2 s cycle. The cycle was repeated six times so that the duration of the whole sequence was 12 s. In Experiment 2, the CSs were similar to those in Experiment 1 except that they started with a random note. As a result, rats could discriminate between the stimuli when the CS started systematically with the same note. When t…
Experience of Ethnic Discrimination, Anxiety, Perceived Risk of COVID-19, and Social Support among Polish and International Students during the Pande…
2023
Background: Our research aimed to assess the experiences of ethnic discrimination among students in Poland (Polish and international) during the COVID-19 pandemic. We also tested the prevalence of anxiety symptoms and their relationship with perceived COVID-19 risk, the severity of discrimination, and social support. Methods: The data from Polish (n = 481) and international university students (n = 105) were collected online (November–January 2020). Participants completed measures of ethnic discrimination (GEDS), anxiety scale (GAD-7), COVID-19 risk perception index, and perceived social support scale (MSPSS) questionnaires. Results: The results showed that international students reported b…
