Discussions on intimate partner violence and electrodermal activity in couple therapy
2016
Tutkimuksemme tarkoituksena oli tarkastella, kuinka paljon parisuhdeväkivallasta puhutaan pariterapiassa, mitä ja kuinka osallistujat puhuvat siitä sekä kuinka osallistujien ihon sähkönjohtavuus liittyy väkivaltakeskusteluihin. Tutkimukseemme kuului neljä paria ja heidän terapeuttinsa, ja parit olivat hakeutuneet terapiaan parisuhdeväkivallan vuoksi. Tarkastellessamme teemoja ja keskustelukäytäntöjä käytimme temaattista analyysia ja diskurssianalyysia. Ihon sähkönjohtavuuden osalta puolestaan tarkastelimme, onko osallistujien välillä eroja keskiarvoissa, piikkien määrässä ja osuuksissa sekä synkroniassa. Tuloksemme osoittivat, että vaikka väkivallasta puhuttiin melko vähän terapiassa, uhrit…
Postulat hermeneutycznej potrzeby relacji teologia – nauki przyrodnicze w perspektywie współczesnej protestanckiej teologii stworzenia
2017
Koncepcja teologii stworzenia niemieckiego teologa protestanckiego Karla Bartha (1886–1968) dostarcza najbardziej klasycznego przykładu odwrotu w teologii protestanckiej od odnoszenia się do wiedzy przyrodniczej. Współcześnie wielu protestanckich teologów anglosaskich i niemieckich, w przeciwieństwie do tej koncepcji, odrzucającej konieczność odnoszenia się w teologii stworzenia do wyników nauk przyrodniczych, wykazuje duże zainteresowanie tematyką relacji doktryny chrześcijańskiej do nauk przyrodniczych. Jest to dziś ważna kwestia dla wiary chrześcijańskiej. Uzasadnienie wiary dokonuje się współcześnie w klimacie myślenia naukowego, w którym ważną rolę odgrywają naukowe narzędzia poznawcze…
Un approccio design-driven alla validazione delle pratiche collaborative per l’economia circolare urbana
2022
L’articolo esplora i metodi e i processi seguiti nella validazione di pratiche collaborative per l’economia circolare urbana. I contenuti presentati sono il risultato dell’attività di ricerca condotta nell’ambito di Reflow, un progetto di ricerca europeo H2020 focalizzato sullo sviluppo di pratiche innovative dedicate a metabolismi urbani circolari. A partire dalla revisione della letteratura e dall’analisi di pratiche relative ai processi collaborativi per l’economia circolare, la pubblicazione identifica una serie di concetti chiave per l’implementazione di progetti di circolarità urbana, evidenziando l’assenza di metodi e strumenti condivisi per la validazione di azioni circolari su larg…
Relationship Between Cannabis Use and Erectile Dysfunction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
2019
Globally, there is increasing usage and legalization of cannabis. In addition to its reported therapeutic effects, cannabis has several health risks which are not clearly defined. Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the most common male sexual disorder and there are plausible mechanisms linking cannabis use to ED. No attempt has been made to collate the literature on this topic. The aim of this review was to summarize the prevalence and risk of ED in cannabis users compared to controls. A systematic review of major databases from inception to January 1, 2019, without language restriction, was undertaken to identify studies investigating cannabis use and presence of ED. The analysis compared the p…
An Autonomous System to Take Angular Thermal-Infrared Measurements for Validating Satellite Products
2015
An autonomous system for field land surface temperature (LST) measurements taken at different observation angles was developed to be deployed easily at any conventional meteorological tower station. The system permits ground-truth data to be acquired on a continuous basis, and angularly scans land and sky hemispheres with a single thermal-infrared (TIR) radiometer. This paper describes the autonomous angular system and the methodology to assess ground-truth LST and relative-to-nadir emissivity data from system measurements. Ground-truth LSTs were used to validate satellite-retrieved LST products at two experimental sites (rice crop and shrubland areas). The relative-to-nadir emissivity valu…
Formation structure of optimality by thermoeconomics: disassembling thermodynamic and external influences in energy systems’ design
2009
In this paper an original thermoeconomic approach for the optimization of complex energy systems is presented, based on a revitalized concept of “scope”, and therefore indicated as Scope Oriented Thermoeconomics (SOT). In plants including dissipative components, it allows to formulate non-arbitrary allocation criteria as concerns marginal costs; consequently, the optimization process is disassembled to recognize the Formation Structure of Optimality, i.e. the specific influences of thermodynamic and economic parameters in the path toward the optimal design. The method is applied to a very didascalic example, that is the optimization of the condensation temperature in a vapour compression ch…
The (im)possible success of disadvantaged students. Reflections on education, migration and social change
2019
The paper focuses on the ?unexpected pathways? of successful students with an immigrant background: these biographical routes, that seems socially impossible, raise theoretical issues around the individual-society, actor-structure relationship. Disadvantaged students who succeed represent a sociological challenge in the attempt to understand atypical situations and to identify the institutional processes and the structural opportunities that facilitate them, reducing ethnic inequalities in education. This framework is the starting point of the Su.Per. project (Success in educational pathways of students with immigrant background), based on the collection of written autobiographies of 65 imm…
Universities’ “Third” Mission, Industrial Conversion and the Quest for Surgical Masks: A Sicilian Tale from the First COVID-19 Lockdown
2022
This contribution is a brief testimony of a “third mission” project conducted in collaboration by two university departments that, despite the operational difficulties, and thanks to institutional support, have promoted an initiative aimed at the productive reconversion of a clothing sector company into a health sector company. The project highlights the benefits of integrating different areas of scientific expertise and highlights the role of full involvement and co-creation of a new production unit. Moreover, it is an example of the role that the university can play in a complex operational context in support of a constructive relationship between public and private actors for the develop…
Violência, evasão e exclusão na educação superior
2019
The present text focuses on a relationship between higher education, institutional and symbolic violence and exclusion, practicing as a challenge based on reflections on the existence of evasion in Brazilian university. Ignoring the educational institution as a direct responsible for these things, this text considers that a logic in University organization and operation helps to enlarge inequalities that provide the mechanisms of evasion; at the same time, it presents itself as a space of reference and a struggle against social inequalities and violence. On a provisional basis, the text stands out that: depending on the execution of educational procedures and practices undertaken by the ins…
IDPlanT: the Italian database of plant translocation
2021
IDPlanT is the Italian Database of Plant Translocation, an initiative of the Nature Conservation Working Group of the Italian Botanical Society. IDPlanT currently includes 185 plant translocations. The establishment of a national database on plant translocation is a key step forward in data sharing and techniques improvement in this field of plant conservation. Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/11263504.2021.1985004.
