Employability and Personal Initiative as Antecedents of Job Satisfaction
2009
In a changing and flexible labour market it is important to clarify the role of environmental and personal variables that contribute to obtaining adequate levels of job satisfaction. The aim of the present study is to analyze the direct effects of employability and personal initiative on intrinsic, extrinsic and social job satisfaction, clarifying their cumulative and interactive effects. The study has been carried out in a sample of 1319 young Spanish workers. Hypotheses were tested by means of the moderated hierarchical regression analysis. Results show that employability and personal initiative predict in a cumulative way the intrinsic, extrinsic and social job satisfaction. Moreover, th…
Efficacy of an internet-based psychological intervention for problem gambling and gambling disorder: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
2021
Gambling Disorder is a prevalent non-substance use disorder, which contrasts with the low number of people requesting treatment. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) could help to enhance the dissemination of evidence-based treatments and considerably reduce the costs. The current study seeks to assess the efficacy of an online psychological intervention for people suffering from gambling problems in Spain. The proposed study will be a two-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial. A total of 134 participants (problem and pathological gamblers) will be randomly allocated to a waiting list control group (N = 67) or an intervention group (N = 67). The intervention program i…
La metodologia dell’Activation du développement vocationnel et professionnel per la maturazione personale e professionale
2022
Il terzo dei 7 principi enucleati nella Charte de la Lien sottolinea che “gli studi e, in generale, l’apprendimento del vivere, devono offrire un libero corso agli interessi innati del ragazzo, quelli che si risvegliano in lui spontaneamente e trovano la loro espressione nelle varie attività di tipo manuale, intellettuale, estetico, sociale”. In quest’ottica numerosi sono gli studi e le metodologie realizzati per lo sviluppo della maturità personale e professionale. Partendo da tali riflessioni il contributo presenta la metodologia ADPV quale strumento per orientare, gli adolescenti, nella progettazione del proprio percorso di vita personale e professionale. The third of the 7 principles of…
Feasibility of a Responsibility-Based Leadership Training Program for Novice Physical Activity Instructors
2021
Most coaches and instructors would like to teach more than just sport skills to their athletes and children. However, to promote athletes' or children's holistic development and teach them to take responsibility and lead, requires the coaches and instructors to first master the skills themselves. Therefore, feasible, high quality leadership training programs where coaches and physical activity instructors are taught to teach and share leadership are needed. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the feasibility of a leadership training program to optimize it and to determine whether to proceed with its evaluation. In the leadership training program, eight Finnish novice physical activ…

Using the Johnson-Neyman Procedure to Detect Item Bias in Personality Tests
2016
I present an alternative to a widely used item-bias analysis procedure known as the ANOVA method. The new method is based on the Johnson-Neyman procedure, which is a multiple regression-based technique with properties that can overcome the major weaknesses of the ANOVA method. I introduce the proposed procedure in a non-technical manner, provide an illustrative example, and suggest guidelines for empirical analysis that can be readily applied in personality research.
Flexibility in otherwise consistent non-breeding movements of a long-distance migratory seabird, the long-tailed skua
2017
Quantifying within- and between-individual variation in animal migration strategies is a first step towards our understanding of the ability of migrants to adjust to changes in the en - vironment. We studied consistency (or, conversely, flexibility) in movement patterns at large (>1000 km) to meso-scales (100−1000 km) during the non-breeding season of the long-tailed skua Stercorarius longicaudus, a long-distance migratory Arctic seabird, using light-based geolocation. We obtained 97 annual tracks of 38 individuals and quantified similarity between routes. Overall, tracks of the same individual were generally within about 200 to 300 km of their previous year’s route, and more similar than t…

PEDAGOGIA DELL'ATTENZIONE
2011
Il libro è proposto come introduzione filosofica e pedagogica alla vita interiore, piccolo manuale di idee ad uso degli educatori. È strutturato in testi brevi, che fanno ventisei capitoli, ordinati in tre parti. Nella prima, quella filosofica in senso proprio, sono giustificate le verità che essere-amato è l'ontologia della persona e che l'essere dello spirito è relazionalità in senso eminente: è essenza stessa della vita interiore il dialogo ininterrotto con quanto di prezioso è custodito nel cuore, i suoi amori e l'ordine secondo il quale si dispongono. La seconda parte, quella pedagogica in senso adeguato, intende l'educazione come una qualità speciale, la cui conquista dota la persona …
