Measuring and reporting confiscated firms' (social) business value
2019
This study highlights the peculiar aspects of the business valuation process involving firms confiscated from the Mafia organisation, by pointing out some criteria to guide the selection of the appropriate valuation method. We identify some preliminary operational proposals for drawing up an effective valuation report taking social and ethical factors into account. Based on an empirical analysis carried out on a sample of Italian firm valuation reports publicly available, we find that the main business valuation choices are not explained in an in-depth manner and that there are many differences between the valuation reports and the prescriptive content proposed. Theoretical implications may…
Las soft skills del docente
2021
L’esercizio di una adeguata professionalità docente coinvolge dimensioni motivazionali, comunicative, pratiche e vocazionali che vanno ben oltre le specificità dei contesti d’aula, partecipando allo sviluppo complessivo dell’organizzazione scolastica e ad iniziative e progetti condotti dalla scuola nel rapporto con la più ampia realtà di ordine familiare, comunitario e sociale in cui è immersa. Quali competenze connotano il docente professionista oggi? Quali azioni e dispositivi di autovalutazione possono supportarne lo sviluppo professionale? Il concetto di competenza rimanda ad una serie di conoscenze specialistiche necessarie, ma non più sufficienti per la formazione degli insegnanti: le…

2013
Este articulo presenta y analiza la innovacion experimentada en distintas asignaturas de la Universitat de Valencia en torno al concepto de la e- Evaluacion y su aplicacion a traves de la plataforma de formacion Aula Virtual. Por un lado, se presentan los aspectos teoricos mas relevantes del incipiente movimiento “ e -Evaluacion orientada al aprendizaje” y, por otro, se senalan los procedimientos evaluativos establecidos con objeto de experimentar dicho cambio en diferentes titulaciones y grupos de estudiantes de dicha Universidad. La investigacion presentada, Eval-Aula, se enmarca en los Proyectos de Innovacion Educativa implementados en la Universitat de Valencia durante los cursos academ…
L'orientation à l'issue de la cinquième : un reflet du fonctionnement du collège
1986
International audience; Ce texte a pour ambition de montrer comment une évaluation de la procédure d'orientation en fin de 5e participe d'une analyse plus globale du fonctionnement du collège. L'orientation à ce niveau est certes un phénomène éminemment scolaire, quoiqu'entaché de biais sociaux importants, les inégalités entre les élèves, notamment en fonction de l'origine sociale, s'exprimant tout particulièrement par des demandes différenciées, à valeur scolaire identique. Cela dit, l'orientation en fin de 5e se réalise à travers une grande variété de situations d'un collège à l'autre, variété qui ne peut se réduire aux différences scolaires et sociales des publics fréquentant ces collège…
The recreational value of botanic garden events: A case study of the Zagara plant fair in Palermo, Italy
2022
Botanic gardens are defined by their mission to maintain living plant collections for scientific research, conservation, display and education. This mission represents the potential ecosystem services that botanic gardens aim to produce, with display and education specifically regarding recreational ecosystem services (RES). Visitors must directly experience botanic gardens to transform these potential RES into real benefits, yet the public may not be interested in studying plants during their leisure time. Thus, botanic gardens turn to events to attract visitors. The objective of this study is to estimate the RES benefits created by a botanic garden event and profile the visitors that it b…
Influence of clinical and psychological variables upon the oral health-related quality of life in patients with temporomandibular disorders
2017
Background To analyze the association between the OHIP-14 and the different subtypes making up the clinical and psychological axis obtained using the RDC/TMD. Material and Methods 407 patients treated at the TMD unit of the Andalusian Healthcare Service were administered the Spanish version of the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders questionnaire (RDC/TMD), together with the Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-14). The degree of association between the patients’ score in the OHIP-14 and the clinical and biopsychosocial variables was analyzed through bivariate and multivariate analyses, specifically through linear regression. Results 89.4% of the treated p…
Comparative evaluation of the effect of impression materials and trays on the accuracy of angulated implants impressions
2018
Background Vinyl Polyether Siloxane is a newly introduced impression material and studies on that is scarce. Implant insertion in posterior mandible might be angulated due to anatomical considerations. The purpose of this study was to compare the dimensional and angular accuracy of impressions using full-arch versus sectional tray and Vinyl Polysiloxane versus Vinyl Polyether Siloxane in angulated implants. Material and Methods Four implants were placed in dental areas #19, #21, #28 and #30 of a Kennedy class I mandibular acrylic model with 30° lingual angulation. Twenty sectional and 20 full-arch open trays were made on the primary cast. Impressions were taken using Vinyl Polysiloxane and …
Clinical evaluation of inter-implant distance influence on the wear characteristics of low-profile stud attachments used in mandibular implant retain…
2019
Background This study was aimed to evaluate the influence of inter-implant distance on the wear characteristics of low-profile stud attachments used in mandibular implant retained overdentures. Material and methods Forty Completely edentulous participants aged between 50 - 70 years were enrolled in this study. Each patient received 2-implants by 2-stage submerged surgical protocol. Participants categorized into 4-groups. Group I: 19 mm inter-implant distance with Locator retained overdentures; Group II: 19 mm inter-implant distance with OT Equator retained overdentures; Group III: 25 mm inter-implant distance with Locator retained overdentures; Group IV: 25 mm inter-implant distance with OT…
Reliability of Y-Balance Test y Wight Bearing Lunge Test for the clinical-functional evolution of plantar fasciitis
2018
[Resumen] Objetivos: Los objetivos de nuestro estudio han sido determinar en pacientes con FP unilateral la fiabilidad intraobservador del instrumento Y- Balance Test (YBT) y la prueba Wight Bearing Lunge Test (WBLT) medida con el inclinómetro de un telefono movil inteligente. Métodos: Estudio transversal y observacional, realizado con 16 pacientes (9 mujeres y 7 hombres). Resultados: Los resultados obtenidos revelan una excelente fiabilidad relativa intraobservador. El YBT mostró un CCI de 0’946; mientras que las medidas con inclinómetro obtuvieron un CCI de 0’992. En el YBT se apreció una asociación de variables estadísticamente significativa en la dirección posteromedial (p=0’004) y en e…
Clinical evaluation of bond failures and survival between mandibular canine-to-canine retainers made of flexible spiral wire and fiber-reinforced com…
2013
Objectives: The purpose of this longitudinal prospective randomized study was to evaluate the clinical reliability of two different types of postorthodontic treatment retainers: a silanised-treated glass fibers-reinforced resin composite (FRC) and a directly bonded multistranded stainless steel wire. The hypothesis of the study was to assess if significant differences are present between failure rates of the two retainers. Study Design: This prospective study was based on an assessment of 87 patients (35 men and 52 women),with an average age of 24 years who required a lower arch fixed retainer after orthodontic treatment. Patients were divided in two groups. Assignment was carried out with …
