The Two-Systems Account of Theory of Mind: Testing the Links to Social- Perceptual and Cognitive Abilities
2018
According to the two-systems account of theory of mind (ToM), understanding mental states of others involves both fast social-perceptual processes, as well as slower, reflexive cognitive operations (Frith and Frith, 2008; Apperly and Butterfill, 2009). To test the respective roles of specific abilities in either of these processes we administered 15 experimental procedures to a large sample of 343 participants, testing ability in face recognition and holistic perception, language, and reasoning. ToM was measured by a set of tasks requiring ability to track and to infer complex emotional and mental states of others from faces, eyes, spoken language, and prosody. We used structural equation m…

The impact of retro-cue validity on working memory representation: Evidence from electroencephalograms.
2022
Visual working memory (VWM) performance can be improved by retrospectively cueing an item. The validity of retro-cues has an impact on the mechanisms underlying the retro-cue effect, but how non-cued representations are handled under different retro-cue validity conditions is not yet clear. Here, we used electroencephalograms to investigate whether retro-cue validity can affect the fate of non-cued representations in VWM. The participants were required to perform a change-detection task using a retro-cue with 80% or 20% validity. Contralateral delay activity and the lateralized alpha power were used to assess memory storage and selective attention, respectively. The retro-cue could redirect…
The Positive Spiral Between Problem-Solving Management and Trust: A Study in Organizations for Individuals With Intellectual Disability
2021
To achieve their goals, organizations for individuals with intellectual disability have to stimulate high-quality relationships between professionals and family members. Therefore, achieving professionals’ trust in family members has become a challenge. One relevant factor in explaining professional’s trust in families is the degree to which family members use the “problem-solving” conflict management strategy (high concern for oneself but also for the other party) in their disputes–disagreements with professionals. It is reasonable to argue that when family members use problem-solving conflict management, professionals’ trust increases. Professionals’ trust, in turn, stimulates the use of …
Sequestrati dalla vendetta: “rimanere chiusi fuori dall’oggetto”
2013
RiassuntoA partire dal loro lavoro di psicoterapeute e attraverso alcuni frammenti clinici che si riferiscono ad un gruppo di adolescenti svoltosi in un quartiere a rischio di Palermo, le Autrici analizzano la dimensione mafiosa non restringendola al solo comportamento criminale; piuttosto declinandola lungo alcuni significanti: non identità e gruppo mafioso che colonizza e sottomette lo psichismo del singolo; fantasmi familiari potenti e spietati che impediscono il costituirsi di sé originali e autonomi; personalità impastate di indifferenza emotiva e vendicatività. Significanti che rendono conto delle vaste aree di desertificazione e pietrificazione – resistenza al cambiamento – avvertita…
Usefulness of biomarkers as intermediate endpoints in health risks posed by occupational lead exposure
2015
The article concerns potential harmful effects of exposure to lead. Although the occurrence of severe lead poisoning has receded in several countries, occupational exposure resulting in moderate and clinically symptomatic toxicity is still common. An earlier and precise characterization of an individual response is obligatory in order to assess the possible risks for human health. Biomarkers may fill important gaps in the path from exposure to a disease. Specifically speaking, emerging (DNA double strand breaks and telomeric DNA erosion) and validated (micronuclei induction and chromosomal aberrations) biomarkers of genotoxicity seem to provide evidence for the assessment of molecular and c…
La transformación de la familia: el caso de los trabajadores del sector textil-confección valenciano.
2014
El principal objetivo del artículo es valorar la incidencia del proceso de individualización en las relaciones familiares de la clase trabajadora. Un análisis pertinente si tenemos en cuenta la importancia de la familia en la provisión de bienestar en nuestro país, la capacidad de transformación que ha demostrado tener la individualización en la concepción y gestión de los vínculos entre parientes, así como la ausencia de la clase trabajadora de las principales teorizaciones sobre este proceso. Las entrevistas en profundidad realizadas a trabajadores en el sector del textil-confección en las comarcas valencianas de l?Alcoià, el Comtat y la Vall d?Albaida permiten concluir que su concepción …
Individuālās pieejas nodrošināšana bērniem ar mācīšanās traucējumiem vispārējās izglītības iestādē 3. un 4. klasē
2017
Diplomdarba „Individuālās pieejas nodrošināšana bērniem ar mācīšanās traucējumiem vispārējās izglītības iestādē 3.un 4. klasē” mērķis ir izpētīt un analizēt individuālās pieejas veidus bērniem ar mācīšanās traucējumiem vispārējās izglītības iestādē. Pētījuma aktualitāte izriet no galvenajiem principiem kvalitātes veicināšanai iekļaujošā izglītībā (Eiropas speciālās izglītības aģentūra, 2009). Galveno principu izstrādāšanas svarīgākais mērķis ir veicināt līdzdalību iekļaujošā izglītībā, nodrošinot kvalitatīvus izglītības pakalpojumus. Iekļaujošās izglītības mērķis ir paplašināt pieejamību izglītībai un veicināt visu izglītojamo līdzdalību un iespējas, lai īstenotu savu potenciālu. Pozitīvas …
Within-student variability in learning experiences, and teachers’ perceptions of students’ task-focus
2016
In order to advance models of educational processes (intraindividual, intensive longitudinal), we propose a model in which we specify state and trait constructs, and an intraindividual variability construct. In our ecological momentary assessment study, we investigated how trait-level and intraindividual variability of students’ learning experiences (intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, task difficulty, effort exertion, help-seeking and competence evaluations) converged with teacher-reported student task-focus. 285 primary school students’ (Years 5 and 6) completed the Learning Experience Questionnaire using handheld computers, on average 13.6 learning episodes during one week (SD = 4.6; Ran…
Within-students variability in learning experiences, and teachers' perceptions of students' task-focus
2016
In order to advance our understanding of educational processes, we present a tutorial of intraindividual variability. An adaptive educational process is characterised by stable (less variability), and a maladaptive process is characterised by instable (more variability) learning experiences from one learning situation to the next. We outline step by step how we specify a multilevel structural equation model of state, trait and individual differences in intraindividual variability constructs, which can be appropriately fitted to intraindividual data (e.g., time-points nested in persons, intensive longitudinal data). In total 285 primary school students’ (Years 5 and 6) completed the Learning…
