Conscious and unconscious identification of female anorectic patients in in-patient psychotherapy
2009
Women are up to ten times more likely to develop anorexia nervosa (AN) than men. Psychoanalytic explanations of this disparity generally emphasize female identification problems due to unresolved conflicts with maternal representations. Based on clinical observation, we identify a subtype of AN patients characterized, first, by consistent idealization of the father who needs the patient for the fulfilment of his own narcissistic needs and, second, by the patient's need to be idealized by the father due to suffering in connection with early emotional malnutrition on the part of the mother. To illustrate this hypothesis, we present the case of a well-educated young woman displaying unconsciou…
The Moments Which Were Never Lost
2011
From faraway Hyperborea, the North wind blows, bringing tidings from a blissful northern people in whose very being there resides a smile. The joyful days of Finnishness were left behind in Karelia, in its beloved song-lands. It is an Arcadia that still lives on in memories, passed on, in the form of stories, from one generation to the next. Yet in those unbreakable links of longing there lurks a danger: a constant temptation to deprecate and even dismiss the present moment. If your sense of the real, of the presently passing moment of the “now” is lost, then who bears the responsibility for that? An idealization of the past results in time deception, a chronological fraud where your entire…
The nearly Gorenstein property for numerical duplications and semitrivial extensions
2022
In this thesis we present and study the ideal duplication, a new construction within the class of the relative ideals of a numerical semigroup $S$, that, under specific assumptions, produces a relative ideal of the numerical duplication $SJoin^b E$, for some ideal $E$ of $S$. We prove that every relative ideal of the numerical duplication can be uniquely written as the ideal duplication of two relative ideals of $S$; this allows us to better understand how the basic operations of the class of the relative ideals of $SJoin^b E$ work. In particular, we characterize the ideals $E$ such that $SJoin^b E$ is nearly Gorenstein. With the aim to generalize this construction to commutative rings with…

The multidisciplinary research on addictions generally promotes the assumption that addictive behavior is caused and maintained by the external psychoactive substance, which accordingly is consider...
Economic Logic with Internal Consistency (and Not Only Formal Rigour)
2022
As is well known, during his life Sraffa never published a work explicitly devoted to epistemological issues. This fact should not be interpreted to indicate Sraffa’s lack of interest in such concerns. From Sraffa’s unpublished manuscripts – kept at the Wren Library of Trinity College, Cambridge, and from the books of his personal library – we see that Sraffa had a strong interest in questions of philosophy of 8science (Kurz and Salvadori, 2005). Therefore, a reconstruction of Sraffa’s epistemological theory can only be conjectural and must not leave out of consideration his unpublished manuscripts. In a previous work (Salvadori and Signorino, 2007), we analysed a specific aspect of Sraffa’…

Explanations for use of dietary- and muscle enhancing dietary supplements among university students: a national cross-sectional study.
2022
Abstract Background Use of dietary supplements (DS) and muscle enhancing dietary supplements (MEDS) is frequent among students despite the lack of evidence of effects and health risks related to consumption. We need to increase our understanding of students’ motivation, examine potential gender differences, and explore explanatory factors, to address preventive measures related to use. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the frequency of, and the reasons for, DS use among university students, as well as explanatory factors for use of MEDS. Method Male and female students from nine Norwegian universities participated in this cross-sectional study. Participants responded to questions about…
A idealização dose espaços rurais no ensino médio. Um estudo de representações sociais
2021
Resumen La teoría de las representaciones sociales contribuye a conocer los discursos que influyen en la vida de las personas y cómo los sujetos reproducen esos conocimientos para interpretar el mundo. El conocimiento que nos interesa en esta investigación es la cosmovisión que los estudiantes de 3.° de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO) y de 2.° de bachillerato de la provincia de Valencia (España) tienen acerca de los espacios rurales. Dicha cosmovisión proviene de diferentes fuentes y contextos de información, por lo que la aplicación de las representaciones sociales al campo de la didáctica de la geografía es pertinente en este estudio. En concreto, el enfoque fenomenológico de la Ge…
