Le arti e la psicologia
2004
Concetti percettivi, concetti rappresentativi, dinamica espressiva, intuizione e intelletto, sono i principali temi variamente articolati nei saggi qui raccolti. Il filo rosso che li lega è un confronto tra la psicologia e la psicologia dell’arte, ovvero tra l’attuale psicologia dei processi cognitivi e una psicologia sviluppata tenendo fede ai principi teorici e metodologici di Rudolf Arnheim che oltre a rendere conto dei processi, mentre contribuisce alla comprensione delle arti, può servire a meglio comprendere i presupposti su cui si è sviluppata la psicologia (da Wundt al cognitivismo e alla scienza cognitiva) e le difficoltà in cui da sempre si dibatte.
System Dynamics Models To Support Health Care Companies In Managing Clinical Risk
2011
Clinical risk management has gained an increasing relevance because of the higher monetary and no monetary effects of clinical errors on health care companies' performance. For this reason, different risk management techniques from the industrial sector have been adopted by managers of health care companies in order to reduce the occurrences of errors and their relative impacts. However, these methods, based on a linear and static perspective, do not properly support the health care companies' management in the identification and assessment of policies aimed at improving the clinical risk profile without reducing financial performances. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt a systemic and mul…
Does Physical Activity Improve Inhibition in Kindergarteners? A Pilot Study
2022
Substantial empirical evidence supports the positive effects of physical activity (PA) on executive functions, but not all forms of physical activity benefit equally. Among kindergarteners, cognitively-engaging exercise seems to more strongly effect EF than simple exercise. We aimed to investigate several qualitatively different exercise formats on kindergarteners' inhibition. Participants were 75 children (M age = 68.1 months), recruited from 14 classrooms of three kindergarten schools. They were randomly assigned to three groups: control group, free play group (non-cognitively-engaging PA), and an intervention group (cognitively-engaging PA). The intervention group performed 18 sessions …
Las creencias epistemológicas en los estudiantes universitarios con los nuevos planes de estudios
2015
Los cambios surgidos a partir del proceso de Bolonia, centrados en una nueva metodología que implica un alumno más activo, es esperable que influyan sobre las creencias epistemológicas. Para comprobar esto, comparamos dos grupos de una misma asignatura que cursaban licenciatura (441) y grado (336) y utilizamos el Cuestionario de creencias epistemológicas (EBS) de Wood y Kardash (2002: 249). Los resultados muestran que las creencias en ambos sistemas tienden a ser similares e ingenuas o simples, con puntuaciones ligeramente superiores en el grupo de licenciatura, contrario a lo esperado. Se presentan sugerencias de mejora de la metodología docente. The changes from the Bologna Process, focus…
Editorial: Positive Technology: Designing E-experiences for Positive Change
2019
While there is little doubt that our lives are becoming increasingly digital, whether this change is for the better or for the worse is far from being settled. Rather, over the past years concerns about the personal and social impacts of technologies have been growing, fueled by dystopian Orwellian scenarios that almost on daily basis are generously dispensed by major Western media outlets. According to a recent poll involving some 1,150 experts, 47% of respondents predict that individuals’ well-being will bemore helped than harmed by digital life in the next decade, while 32% say people’s well-being will bemore harmed than helped. Only 21% of those surveyed indicated that the impact of tec…
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Trains at 1 Hz Frequency of the Right Posterior Parietal Cortex Facilitate Recognition Memory
2021
Neuroimaging, neuropsychological, and brain stimulation studies have led to contrasting findings regarding the potential roles of the lateral parietal lobe in episodic memory. Studies using brain stimulation methods reported in the literature do not offer unequivocal findings on the interactions with stimulation location (left vs. right hemisphere) or timing of the stimulation (encoding vs. retrieval). To address these issues, active and sham 1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) trains of 600 stimuli were applied over the right or left posterior parietal cortex (PPC) before the encoding or before the retrieval phase of a recognition memory task of unknown faces in a grou…

Psychopathology and female detention at the “Pagliarelli” jail of Palermo: preliminary results
2018
Most of the studies carried out on prisoners have considered male samples or they investigated specific psychiatric disorders. The present study aims to estimate the presence of current and lifetime psychiatric disorders among female inmates. Secondary aims are to evaluate the correlation between a current psychiatric disorder and other variables, and the association with a psycho-pharmacotherapy and a request for a clinical psychological interview. The study included 25 women with a final sentence at the “Casa Circondariale Pagliarelli” from October 2016 to July 2017. The Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI) was used to assess the presence of any current or lifetime psychia…
Il lavoro con gli adolescenti: fattori "contingenti" e suicidio

Nuovi scenari della formazione docenti. Atteggiamenti didattico-multimediale: una possibile strategia verso tecniche di inclusione e prevenzione del …
il lavoro si propone di riflettere su come i docenti della scuola odierna possano attivare strategie di inclusione e prevenzione del disagio cybersociale mediante l'applicazione della didattica multimediale e l'interconnessione, attraverso l'uso di nuove modalità relazionali in presenza quali la peer professionals education, il cui risultato sfocia nel rispetto dell'alterità incluisiva
