Basal ice formation in snow cover in Northern Finland between 1948 and 2016
2018
Abstract Basal ice formation in the terrestrial snow cover is a common phenomenon in northern circumpolar areas, one having significant impacts on ecosystems, vegetation, animals and human activities. There is limited knowledge on the spatial and temporal occurrence of basal ice formation because of the sparse observation network and challenges involved in detecting formation events. We present a unique dataset on the annual extent of ice formation events in northern Finland between 1948 and 2016 based on reindeer herders’ descriptions of the cold season in their management reports. In extreme years, basal ice can form over wide geographical extents. In approximately half of the herding dis…

Contextualizing AMO explanations of knowledge sharing in MNEs: the role of organizational and national culture
2022
AbstractAbility, motivation, and opportunity (AMO) approaches have dominated studies of knowledge sharing in multinational enterprises (MNEs). We argue that there is a need to consider both the national and organizational cultural contexts. Beyond their direct influence on knowledge sharing with colleagues in other business units (BUs), national and organizational culture significantly reinforce the positive relation between individual motivation and knowledge sharing. Thus, our multi-level approach to knowledge sharing in MNEs gives rise to a contextualized AMO approach that provides a novel and more potent understanding of variations in knowledge sharing. At the individual level, our appr…
Externalism, inclusion, and knowledge of content
2003
En este trabajo abordo la cuestión de si el autoconocimiento es compatible con una individuación externista del contenido mental. En contra de algunas posiciones, considero el autoconocimiento como un logro cognitivo genuino. Aunque no es incorregible ni infalible, el autoconocimiento es directo (no inferencial), a priori (no basado en la investigación empírica), y dotado de especial autoridad y presunción de verdad. El problema consiste en saber si el autoconocimiento, así entendido, es compatible con el externismo. Mi respuesta será afirmativa. Defenderé esta clase de compatibilismo frente a distintas objeciones, sobre todo aquellas que se basan en la posibilidad de que un individuo sea s…
Self-knowledge and content externalism
1999
El externismo concibe el significado de las expresiones y el contenido de las actitudes mentales como determinados, en parte, por relaciones del sujeto con su entorno natural o social. Un problema central para el externismo es su aparente incompatibilidad con el autoconocimiento (el privilegio del Cogito cartesiano). La tesis central del artículo es que externismo y autoconocimiento, contra esta apariencia, son realmente compatibles. A favor de esta tesis arguyo que el externismo, correctamente entendido, no implica que un cambio en el entorno conlleve ipso facto un cambio en el significado y el contenido intencional. Esta versión del externismo, que denomino “externismo normativo”, posee u…

L’integrazione delle competenze tecnologiche, didattiche e disciplinari nella formazione iniziale dei docenti di sostegno
2021
Questo contributo focalizza l’attenzione sulle competenze dei docenti di sostegno in formazione iniziale cos come vengono descritte nel framework del Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK) (Mishra & Koehler, 2006), a partire dagli studi di Shulman (1986) sul PCK e intende offrire alcune riflessioni metodologiche sulla formazione dell’insegnante di sostegno considerando, tra altri fattori, l’eterogeneità dei titoli di studio che consentono l’accesso al percorso formativo. I risultati ottenuti con un campione di 1591 docenti iscritti al corso di specializzazione per il sostegno dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo e le riflessioni provenienti dal modello TPACK potrebbero c…
