Associations of Work-Family Conflict with Family-Specific, Work-Specific, and Well-Being-Related Variables in a Sample of Polish and Ukrainian Adults…
2022
The conflict between work and family demands increased during the COVID-19 pandemic due to changes in lifestyle related to the lockdown. This study examines the associations between work-family conflict (WFC) and family-work conflict (FWC) with work-specific, family-specific, and well-being-related variables during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results may be used in practice to improve the well-being of employees by adjusting home-based work and family areas of life to dynamic changes during the pandemic. The sample of 736 adults from Poland (53.26%) and Ukraine (46.74%), aged between 19 and 72 (M = 39.40; SD = 10.80), participated in the study. The cross-sectional study wa…
Il Pnnr e le economie del turismo in Italia: le disparità regionali e le politiche
2022
The Italian regions show marked differences in the pattern of tourism development. These disparities can be offset by implementing a shared plan that supports the post-pandemic restart and strengthens its resilience to external shocks. The multiannual programming initiative launched by the EU with the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) aims to address the consequences of the exogenous shocks triggered by the crisis from Covid-19 on the European production system. According to a top-down strategy articulated in a national plan and regional and sub-regional action plans, the large number of economic resources foreseen in the Plan will produce significant effects. The Pnrr's general …
Understanding prevention measures and tourist behavior in Croatia during the COVID-19 pandemic. A mixed-method approach
2022
This study investigates the adoption of prevention measures in Croatia during the COVID-19 pandemic and its relationship with tourist behavior.

A qualitative study was conducted with eight destination service providers, while the quantitative study took place among 333 international tourists during their stay in the country. Results from the qualitative study show that the most frequently employed prevention measures are cleaning and disinfection of customer-use spaces, the use of hand sanitizers, mandatory face masks for employees and guests, and social distancing. Tourism service provi…
Institute of the Holy Heart in Palermo. Architectural and technological proposal of rehabilitation intervention for post-pandemic social housing.
2021
Close to the historical city centre, the prince Pignatelli built his villa-palace in the 18th century. Later it became the headquarter of the Order of the Holy Heart that instituted a school attended by the highest society. The 11430 m2 historical building (ground floor, first and second floor), along with its monumental garden (about 9600 m2), was abandoned by the nuns in 2008. The novel ownership is aimed at restoring and re-functionalising the complex, a kaleidoscope of urban-architectural and technological stratifications, located in a crucial point of Palermo still waiting for a new season of requalification, being also close to the Zisa castle, included in the UNESCO Arab and Norman i…
"W trybie zdalnym..." - nauka -wychowanie - opieka nad uczniami ze specjalnymi potrzebami w czasie pandemii. Refleksje i rozterki pedagoga
2020
Artykuł został poświęcony aktualnym ważnym zagadnieniom związanym z ogłoszoną 11 marca 2020 roku przez WHO pandemią COVID-19. Na całym niemal świecie, w tym również w naszym kraju, trwa walka z nową, nieznaną dotychczas chorobą, a wszelkie działania zmierzają przede wszystkim do zatrzymania szybko postępującej transmisji zakażeń. Jednym z podejmowanych środków zaradczych jest ogłaszany w wielu krajach lockdown, obejmujący między innymi zamknięcie szkół i uczelni, w których nauka odbywa się w trybie zdalnym. Szkoły, nauczyciele i uczniowie oraz ich rodzice stanęli w obliczu wielu problemów i trudności organizacyjnych, technicznych, adaptacyjnych związanych z edukacją zdalną. Nieustannie poja…
Postpandemic Urban Habitat in the Age of Contamination
2020
The challenge for post-pandemic urban habitats will be to recover their natural polycentrism, the diversity of their neighborhoods which, ceasing to be fragile suburbs, return to being places of lives and not just of homes, bridging the educational, working, cultural, digital divides, acquiring micro-places of public health and self-sufficient energy communities. I imagine cities of a renewed urban proxemic made up of "augmented urban communities" (according to the principles I described earlier) that reduce their frantic centripetal mobility and that facilitate a more measured mobility guaranteeing the answer to many needs within 15 minutes from home (the “15-minute city”, as already launc…
Emergenza Covid-19 e sviluppo della competenza metacognitiva dei docenti universitari neoassunti
2021
La spinta all’innovazione verso ambienti di apprendimento caratterizzati da un uso intensivo della tecnologia, determinata dalla crisi pandemica, costituisce una questione strategica per lo sviluppo dell’alta formazione. In questa direzione, la formazione e professionalizzazione del docente universitario sul versante pedagogico-didattico-valutativo rappresenta un’azione rilevante con potenziale impatto sul sistema universitario nel suo complesso che va oltre il periodo di emergenza COVID- 19. Il presente contributo si propone di indagare alcuni fattori utili alla programmazione di iniziative di faculty development specificatamente dedicate ai docenti neoassunti, finalizzate al miglioramento…
Stabilise, balance and adjust : Framing the early years transitions of children whose parents work non‐standard hours
2022
This study examined talk by parents about the early years transitions of their children (n = 7) in the context of parental non-standard working hours and Finnish early childhood education and care (ECEC) services. Parents were interviewed at three time points: when their child was aged one, four, five or six years (a total of 21 interviews). The third interview was conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic. This article focuses on the children's ECEC transitions and the interpretative frames used by parents when talking about their work and childcare. The frames used by the parents to discuss the children's transitions were stabilising the children's lives, balancing between staying at home an…
