Risposta ornamentale di accessioni di peperoncino coltivati in vaso
2008
Gran parte delle varietà di peperoncino, coltivate a scopo alimentare, è considerata interessante anche ai fini ornamentali. Ciò è attribuibile principalmente al frutto che rende questa pianta idonea alla coltivazione in vaso e per la realizzazione di aiuole e bordure. Il Consorzio di ricerca Co.Ri.S.S.I.A. di Palermo ha avviato una ricerca allo scopo di valorizzare il peperoncino come specie ornamentale da vaso. Sono state confrontate 34 varietà di peperoncino coltivate in quattro differenti tipologie di vaso, rilevando i principali parametri morfologici e estetici. La specie ha manifestato una buona adattabilità alla coltivazione in vaso, avvalorando, nel contempo, il suo impiego anche pe…
Sporadic and Familial Variants in NF1: An Explanation of the Wide Variability in Neurocognitive Phenotype?
2020
Background: Cognitive impairment is the most common neurological manifestation in NF1 and occurs in 30-70% of NF1 cases. The onset and severity of each specific cognitive deficit varies greatly from child to child, with no apparent external causes. The wide variability of phenotype is the most complex aspect in terms of management and care. Despite multiple research, the mechanism underlying the high heterogeneity in NF1 has not yet been elucidated. While many studies have focused on the effects of specific and precise genetic mutations on the NF1 phenotype, little has been done on the impact of NF1 transmission (sporadic vs. familial cases). We used a complete neuropsychological evaluation…
Pesquisa científica em contabilidade gerencial: estudo comparativo entre Espanha e Brasil
2012
Nas últimas décadas a contabilidade gerencial teve um desenvolvimento acentuado, com inclusão de novos temas e métodos de investigação, revistas exclusivas, e principalmente estudos com perspectivas multidisciplinares. Uma das formas de perceber e entender esse nível de desenvolvimento é estudar suas publicações nas principais revistas. Assim, o objetivo é realizar um estudo comparativo sobre contabilidade gerencial entre a Espanha e o Brasil. Para tanto, foram selecionados 421 artigos de sete revistas espanholas de contabilidade listadas no IN-RECS (Índice de Impacto das Revistas Espanholas de Ciências Sociais), e 245 artigos de seis revistas brasileiras listadas na Capes. Por tanto, anali…

PERFORMANCE E INCENTIVI: PRATICHE DI COMPENSAZIONE MANAGERIALE
2010
Sistemi di incentivazione basati sulle performance conseguite sono ormai da tempo elementi centrali nelle pratiche di compensazione manageriale. Essi assumono una funzione determinante nel momento in cui sono riferiti a ruoli organizzativi chiave. In particolare, i piani di incentivazione annuale sono da sempre al centro del dibattito sulla loro validità, ancora più acceso dopo lo scatenarsi della recente crisi economico-finanziaria. Il presente articolo mostra i risultati di un’indagine conoscitiva, volta ad analizzare le principali dinamiche di compensazione manageriale tra le aziende italiane e ad individuare gli elementi caratterizzanti la definizione dei bonus plan.
Shared Situational Awareness in a Professional Soccer Team: An Explorative Analysis of Post-Performance Interviews
2020
Sport science research has done little to elaborate on the cognitive factors that turn a collection of individual players into a coordinated elite team. The purpose of this paper is to clarify if the players and coach of an elite soccer team express shared situational awareness. Ten players and one coach were exposed to twelve video pictures from a previous soccer match, and their statements for each picture were recorded and analyzed using a qualitative approach. Two of five game situations were with ball possession and three out of seven were without ball possession
Music Performance Anxiety : Use of Coping Strategies by Tertiary Flute Players
2013
This article presents part of a master´s degree research, which focused on investigating causes, symptoms, and strategies used by tertiary flute players to cope with music performance anxiety in the performance of an unaccompanied flute work in recital of evaluative character. However, it will present only the results on strategies of twelve flute students from three music colleges in Brazil to cope with music performance anxiety. Seven of participants were male, and five were female. The procedures of collection and analyses of data occurred as in the study by Siw Nielsen (1999), that is, through the behavioral observation of the participants in the recital, and verbal reports by semi-stru…
Equivalent Circuit Modelling of Ferrite Inductors Losses
2018
The modelling of the magnetic losses in the core of ferrite inductors for power conversion circuits has been considered in this paper. On the basis of the Revised Generalized Steinmetz Model (RGSE) an equivalent circuital modelling has been obtained. The losses are modelled as an equivalent resistance connected in parallel to the inductor. The model has been tested under periodic triangular current waveforms.
Corporate entrepreneurship and governance: Mergers and acquisitions in Europe
2022
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are a form of corporate entrepreneurship involving strategic decisions that require discussion and approval by the board of directors of the acquiring firm. We focus on board attributes to analyze the entrepreneurial function of the board of directors and its involvement in corporate entrepreneurship. Building on different theories (agency theory, resource dependence theory, stewardship theory, and stakeholder theory), we examine whether board composition affects the number of acquisitions, the risk involved in bids, and the creation of value for the acquirer's shareholders. For a sample of European firms over the period 2002 to 2020, we find that board size a…
