Dialoghi digitali. La comunità professionale si confronta sulle esperienze in tempo di COVID
2020
La crisi pandemica ha avuto un impatto diretto e indiretto nella sfera di azione dei servizi sociali. La gestione della emergenza causata dal Covid-19, nelle diverse fasi in cui è articolata, ha coinvolto i professionisti dei servizi sociali in un contesto in cui, per la prima volta, una situazione di trauma e di crisi a livello collettivo (Aydin, 2017) ha investito l’intero territorio nazionale, comportando sfide senza precedenti in Italia dopo la Seconda guerra mondiale. Insieme allo spiazzamento iniziale, la pandemia ha reso ancora più evidenti le disuguaglianze e le ingiustizie sociali, ha investito direttamente i servizi sociosanitari, le relazioni tra i cittadini e tali sistemi, le co…
The Role of Social Media Influencers in Public Health Communication: Case COVID-19 Pandemic
2022
During public health crises, public organizations face a variety of strategic communication challenges, and the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 is an extreme example. In Finland, the Prime Minister’s Office initiated a communication campaign that utilized social media influencers to communicate timely instructions regarding the pandemic. However, it is uncertain how social media influencers adapt to briefings of public organizations given that they typically work with brands that align with their own interests and expertise, which rarely is epidemiology. We use the two-step flow of communication model and social influence theory to analyze research data that consisted of 96 Instag…
I servizi socio-educativi nell’era del digitale. Sfide e opportunità
2022
The pandemic has played a catalyst role in the digitization processes of services and relationships between professionals and people, highlighting the existence of a "minimum technological vital" (Campedelli, Toc-cafondi and Vignani, 2021) which can draw the line between social inclusion and exclusion. The measures introduced to deal with the spread of the virus have imposed rapid transformations and, in just a few weeks, digital technologies have been integrated into all aspects of professional life, showing positive and negative effects (Lopez et al., 2020) . The introduction of numerous platforms, the use of which has exploded during the quarantine, has provided previously overlooked, if…

Assetto territoriale e sfide della pandemia. Considerazioni sull’esperienza spagnola e tedesca
2021
Il contagio da SARS-CoV-2 ha generato una crisi sanitaria globale senza precedenti. Ciò ha riportato al centro delle riflessioni giuridiche l’antica questione della gestione dell’emergenza nello Stato di diritto, riproponendo quesiti irrisolti e nuove sfide per la tenuta dei regimi democratici contemporanei. Sotto questo profilo, il sistema federale tedesco ma anche la dimensione autonomica spagnola offrono due interessanti casi di studio sulla gestione dell’emergenza dal punto di vista dell’assetto territoriale. The SARS-CoV-2 has generated an unprecedented global health crisis. This has brought the age-old question of emergency management in the rule of law back to the centre of legal re…
Pre-sleep arousal and sleep quality during the COVID-19 lockdown in Italy
2021
Abstract Objective The COVID-19 pandemic has strongly affected daily habits and psychological wellbeing, and many studies point to large modifications in several sleep and sleep-related domains. Nevertheless, pre-sleep arousal during the pandemic has been substantially overlooked. Since hyperarousal represents one of the main factors for the development and the perpetuation of chronic insomnia disorder, the assessment of variables associated with high levels of pre-sleep arousal during the pandemic is clinically relevant. The study aimed to assess the prevalence and predictors of perceived sleep quality and pre-sleep arousal in an Italian sample during the COVID-19 lockdown. Methods We used…
