Informal conversations in a community health program: process evaluation
2013
Objetivo: Evaluar la calidad del proceso de las conversaciones informales (CI) con perspectiva de género, realizadas por dos agentes de salud, una mujer y un hombre de origen latinoamericano, en un programa dirigido a población inmigrante.

Comparing the physical activity patterns of 3-year-old Finnish and Australian children during childcare and homecare days
2014
AbstractLimited previous research has contrasted physical activity (PA) patterns in preschool children across different hourly patterns or segments of day, or adopted similar methodologies to compare the PA behaviors of children from different countries. The purpose of this study was to examine how the PA levels and patterns differed between 3- year-olds within and between childcare and homecare days in Finland and Australia.ActiGraph GT3X accelerometers were used to monitor 121 (80 Finnish, 41 Australian) children’s PA for five consecutive days.No significant country differences were observed in children’s daily total PA (light-tovigorous PA [LMVPA]), except that during childcare days Finn…
Leadership, Perceptions, and Turnover Intentions: Why Stay?
2014
The purpose of the quantitative correlational study was to highlight the variable relationships between tenure, perceptions, job satisfaction, and turnover intentions for a sample consisting of individuals working for managers who were previously peers. The study incorporated a quantitative correlational structure and the rationale for choosing the structure for the initiative was to aid in the analysis of sample data gathered using Likert-type surveying tools regarding the variables chosen for the initiative. The findings, through conducting statistical analysis, highlighted significant correlation between job satisfaction and turnover intentions and significant correlation between percept…
An Exploratory Analysis of Factors Associated with Health-Related Physical Fitness in Adolescents. The ASSO Project
2018
Monitoring physical fitness (fitness) and identifying, since the beginning, possible determinants in youth could be useful to preserve health and avoid morbidities in adulthood. The main objective of this study is to provide details on the fitness levels of a sample of adolescents living in the Southern area of Italy and describe its associations with biological/genetic, socio-cultural/environmental, and lifestyle (physical activity/sedentariness, alcohol/smoking, meal patterns/habits) factors. The study was conducted within the Adolescence Surveillance System for Obesity Prevention (ASSO) project, funded by the Italian Ministry of Health and examining adolescents&rsquo
Calidad de vida de los discapacitados intelectuales valorada por ellos mismos y los profesionales: variables implicadas
2016
Mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas con Discapacidad Intelectual es un objetivo prioritario desde la implantación de la Ley de Promoción de la Autonomía Personal y Atención a las personas en situación de dependencia. Los profesionales y los propios usuarios no siempre coinciden en la valoración que tienen acerca de las diferentes dimensiones de que consta el constructo. Es posible que las discrepancias se deban a variables no especialmente atendidas por la investigación como el modo en que viven (vivienda tutelada, residencia o unidad familiar), o el grado de discapacidad que muestran. El objetivo de este estudio ha consistido en analizar las posibles discrepancias existentes entre l…
Prometeo genetista. Profitti delle tecniche e metafore della scienza
2016
Il saggio di Claude Calame affronta una tematica di grande rilievo scientifico, ossia il confronto tra il valore epistemologico e sociale dell'uso delle arti tecniche nell'antica Grecia e il valore epistemologico del linguaggio della scienza moderna in particolare applicato all'ambito della genetica e delle moderne biotecnologie e scienze di laboratorio. Lo spunto del confronto è offerto dall'analisi storico-culturale e antropologica del mito di Prometeo, come è stato diversamente declinato dai vari autori dell'antichità classica, a partire da Esiodo sino a Platone, passando per l'autore del dramma "Prometeo incatenato". In una prospettiva di indagine antropopoietica, le arti tecniche perme…
Logistic procedures in the promotion of agritourism
2018
The article concerns logistic procedures in the promotion of agritourism services used by farmers engaged in agritourism and by agritourism associations, local authorities in municipalities and agricultural advisory centers. On the basis of the literature, various promotional instruments used by rural service providers and by these entities in the communication processes with the market were shown. Logistic aspects concerning planning and implementation of agritourism development were presented, mainly the role of agritourism information and promotional activities in these processes. Farmers providing agritouristic services most often use various forms of promotion. Among them, they use onl…
Promotion of learner autonomy in the EFL classroom : the students' view
2013
Oppijan autonomisuudella tarkoitetaan oppijan sisäistä kykyä hallita omaa oppimistaan, eli kykyä asettaa omia oppimistarpeita vastaavia tavoitteita, toimia näiden tavoitteiden mukaisesti, ja arvioida omaa etenemistä. Kirjallisuuden mukaan formaali opetus voi joko edistää tai ehkäistä oppijan autonomisuuden kehitystä. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, missä määrin opiskelijoiden mielestä oppijan autonomisuutta edistetään lukion englannin kielen opetuksessa sekä kuinka tyytyväisiä opiskelijat ovat kokemaansa oppijan autonomisuuden edistämiseen. Tutkimuksen aineisto kerättiin kyselylomakkeella, jonka jälkeen aineisto analysoitiin kvantitatiivisesti. Tutkimuksen tulokset osoittavat…
Molecular cloning and characterization of the complementary DNA coding for the B-chain of murine Clq
1989
AbstractcDNA clones coding for the B-chain of murine Clq were isolated from a mouse macrophage library. The characterized clones include the total coding region plus a leader sequence. High homology was found with human Clq B-chain in the coding region (81%). Northern blot analysis of total RNA from different tissues of Balb/c mice showed one band of approximately 1.2 kb. The highest signal was found in RNA preparations of thioglycolate-activated peritoneal macrophages. The probe also hybridized with mRNA from spleen, thymus and heart. Extremely weak signals were found in liver, kidney, lung and intestine tissues.
