Application of latent class analysis in assessing the awareness, attitude, practice and satisfaction of paediatricians on sleep disorder management i…
2020
Aim To identify subgroups regarding paediatricians’ awareness, attitude, practice and satisfaction about management of Sleep-Disordered Breathing (SDB) in Italy using Latent Class Analysis (LCA). Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on a large sample of Italian paediatricians. Using a self-administered questionnaire, the study collected information on 420 Paediatric Hospital Paediatricians (PHPs) and 594 Family Care Paediatricians (FCPs). LCA was used to discover underlying response patterns, thus allowing identification of respondent groups with similar awareness, attitude, practice and satisfaction. A logistic regression model was used to investigate which independent variables i…
Investing in a PhD : Human capital or cultural capital ?
2005
The first part is mainly devoted to the study of the theoretical positions of Gary Becker and Pierre Bourdieu, the main theme being the vision of education as a capital. The notions of human capital (Becker) and cultural capital (Bourdieu) are presented, compared and criticised, each one being replaced in its theoretical context. The second part is devoted to empirical analyses concerning the PhD. We first try to assess the monetary return on a PhD. Then we look for the reasons why people pursue study at doctoral level, knowing that the monetary return can not by himself explain this decision. The PhD appears mainly as a way to work in higher education and public research. More than human c…
La thèse en CIFRE : les tenants et les aboutissants en sciences humaines et sociales
2021
International audience; Cette intervention visait à expliquer les tenants et les aboutissants d’une thèse CIFRE en sciences humaines et sociales, de la candidature à sa concrétisation. Elle expliquait aussi les défis qu’ont les doctorants en CIFRE pour l’élaboration de la méthodologie, la mise en place du terrain et la posture à adopter vis-à-vis de ce statut particulier entre université et exigences du milieu professionnel.
Quelle posture épistémologique adopter en thèse CIFRE dans une collectivité territoriale ?
2021
International audience; Cette communication visait à définir les tenants et les aboutissants de la réalisation d’une thèse professionnelle dans une collectivité territoriale. Elle expliquait ainsi la définition de la posture de chercheur dans un terrain extérieur à l’université et les défis de répondre à la commande d’un employeur tout en gardant l’objectivité nécessaire au doctorant pris en étau entre le monde académique et le monde professionnel.
Les évolutions du système d'innovation et le marché du travail des jeunes scientifiques
2004
In France, as in many other OECD countries, a sharp increase in the number of Ph.D. graduates in S&E fields from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s was followed by a decrease in the enrolments in Ph.D. studies. Important transformations in the innovation processes were also observed on the same period. Our hypothesis is that we assist to the emergence of an intermediate scientific labour market between the traditional academic sector and the private research sector. A detailed analysis of the production processes of scientists and of the scientific careers of young scientists is first carried out in the perspective of labour economics. Then, in the perspective of the economics of innovation and…
Exploring web-mediated communication: A genre-based linguistic study for new patterns of doctor–patient interaction in online environment
2016
This paper questions the nature of the communicative event that takes place in online contexts between doctors and web-users, showing computer-mediated linguistic norms and discussing the nature of the participants’ roles. Based on an analysis of 1005 posts occurring between doctors and the users of health service websites, I analyse how doctor–patient communication is affected by the medium and how health professionals overcome issues concerning the virtual medical visit. Results suggest that (a) online medical answers offer a different service from that expected by users, as doctors cannot always fulfill patient requests, and (b) net consultations use aspects of traditional doctor–patient…
On-Line Retrieval of Health Information Based on Language Complexity, Information Customization and Information Quality
2021
Abstract. A patient, nowadays, acquires on-line health information mainly by means of a search engine. Generic search engines have been shown to be limited and unsatisfactory, at times, because of their generic searches that overload users with the amount of results. Moreover, they are not able to provide customized information to different types of users. At the same time, specific search engines mostly work on medical literature and provide extracts from medical journals that are mainly useful for medical researchers and experts. As a consequence, the found health information may or may not help a user (mainly a non-expert one) for a full comprehension of what he/she is looking for (e.g.,…
L'ultima filosofia. Riflessioni sulla "Philosophie der neuen Musik" (1949) di Theodor Wiesengrund Adorno nel 120° anniversario della nascita
2023
The intervention concerns the controversy between Schoenberg, Adorno and Mann following the publications of the "Doktor Faustus" and the "Philosophie der neuen Musik". With regard to Adorno's text, the exergo to the essay on Schoenberg and, in a more general sense, the attempt to bring the "neue Musik" back to the framework of a Hegelian philosophy are analyzed.
Il testamento biologico: dimensioni culturali, prospettive simboliche e psicodinamiche
2009
Recenti vicende umane e giuridiche hanno portato in primo piano il tema del testamento biologico e del rapporto tra l’uomo, la malattia e la morte. L’interrogativo sulla morte è connesso con quello della vita umana che viene considerata ora come la semplice sopravvivenza dell’organismo biologico, ora come un’esperienza che racchiude aspetti emotivi, affettivi e relazionali. Le discipline psicologiche possono aiutare a riflettere sul rapporto della società contemporanea con la malattia e con la morte, sui riti che accompagnano tali esperienze, sui processi decisionali che sottostanno al testamento biologico. Nell’epoca contemporanea la medicina si accosta al morente con l’idea di vincere la …
Euromediterranean Biomedical Journal: the renewed journal of young doctors aims even higher.
2014
In January 2006, a new journal, Capsula Eburnea, was born in the Italian scientific pub-lishing scene, with the initial goal of creating, at the same time, “an open scientific forum and a blog”. Until December 2009, the vast majority of manuscripts was still published in Italian, restricting the number of readers. From the end of 2009, the journal has undergone extensive changes, becoming indexed in the main scientific search engines (Scopus, Directory of Open Access Journal, Google Scholar, Ulrich Periodical Directory), and renewing its Editorial Team with a role reassign-ment and expanding the Editorial Board to up to 40 young doctors with proven scientific experience from 15 countries ar…
