Towards resilient cities: Advancements allowed by a multi-criteria optimization tool to face the new challenges of European Union’s climate and energ…
2019
Abstract The United Nations as well as the European Union are strongly committed in promoting a transition towards more sustainable and resilient cities. Indeed, they are increasingly affected by different types of threats, among which the natural ones such as earthquakes, fires, and floods (shocks) and climate variability (stresses). Cities are quite often unable to cope with the adverse effects of such natural hazards. This circumstance leads to the need of introducing resilience-related criteria (besides commonly used sustainability indicators) in decision-making processes. This paper investigates at which extent the inclusion of such new indicators, within multi-criteria assessment tool…
Influence of Geographical Area and Living Setting on Children's Weight Status, Motor Coordination, and Physical Activity
2022
This study was aimed (i) to examine the effect of living setting (rural vs. urban), geographical area (North vs. Center vs. South), and gender (boys vs. girls) on weight status, motor coordination, and physical activity (PA) level of Italian school-age children; (ii) to examine differences in the neighborhood walkability of different school areas from different geographical areas and living settings; and (iii) to examine whether motor coordination, PA level, geographical areas, living setting, neighborhood walkability, and gender could predict children's weight status. We assessed anthropometric parameters, gross motor coordination, and PA level in 1,549 children aged between 8 and 13 years…
Leadership Effectiveness in Healthcare Settings: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cross-Sectional and Before-After Studies
2022
To work efficiently in healthcare organizations and optimize resources, team members should agree with their leader’s decisions critically. However, nowadays, little evidence is available in the literature. This systematic review and meta-analysis has assessed the effectiveness of leadership interventions in improving healthcare outcomes such as performance and guidelines adherence. Overall, the search strategies retrieved 3,155 records, and 21 of them were included in the meta-analysis. Two databases were used for manuscript research: PubMed and Scopus. On 16th December 2019 the researchers searched for articles published in the English language from 2015 to 2019. Considering the study des…
Review of carbon emissions offsetting guidelines using instructional criteria
2023
Abstract Purpose Carbon offsetting is one of the tools that companies can use to achieve their climate targets. The ability of a company to offset its emissions successfully depends on the availability and quality of guidance on the subject. This study explores how well existing offsetting guidelines equip corporations to achieve successful emissions offsetting. Methods Instructional criteria were developed and used to evaluate seven guidelines. The contents of each guideline were assessed based on how they instruct a company to achieve emissions offsetting that fulfills five criteria for appropriate offsetting: target affiliation, Paris compatibility, effectiveness, prioritizing removals, …

Gli insetti edibili alla prova del mercato. Il regolamento di esecuzione (UE) 2021/882 relativo all’immissione in commercio della larva di Tenebrio m…
2021
L’articolo analizza il Regolamento di esecuzione (UE) 2021/882 relativo all’immissione sul mercato della larva di Tenebrio molitor essiccata, ovvero il primo regolamento che autorizza l’immissione di un insetto edibile sul mercato dell’Unione Europea. La normativa in esame fa emergere delle rilevanti criticità in merito all’opportunità e alla sostenibilità delle scelte di tutela della protezione dei dati scientifici ai sensi dell’art. 26 del Regolamento (UE) n. 2283/2015 compiute dal legislatore unionale nel caso in esame. Tale regolamento, inoltre, si presenta come potenziale modello che sarà adottato per le richieste di autorizzazione attualmente al vaglio della Commissione e per le futur…
On Capturing Oil Rents with a National Excise Tax Revisited
2004
In this paper the scope of Bergstrom’s (1982) results is studied. Moreover, his analysis is extended assuming that extraction cost is directly related to accumulated extractions. For the case of a competitive market it is found that the optimal policy is a constant tariff if extraction is costless. However, with depletion effects, the optimal tariff must ultimately be decreasing. For the case of a monopolistic market the results depend crucially on the kind of strategies the importing country governments can play and on whether the monopolist chooses the price or extraction rate. For a price-setting monopolist it is shown that the importing countries cannot use a tariff to capture monopoly …
Ruudusta lehteen, lehdestä kahvipöytään : televisio-ohjelmat iltapäivälehtien aiheina syksyllä 2012
2015
Tämä tutkielma selvittää iltapäivälehtien ja televisio-ohjelmien välistä suhdetta, ja sitä, mitkä seikat siihen vaikuttavat. Tutkimuksen kohteena on iltapäivälehtien televisio-ohjelmauutisointi syksyllä 2012 ja siinä näkyvät aihevalinnat, asenteet ja trendit, sekä iltapäivälehtien ja televisio-ohjelmien tapa luoda ja ylläpitää yhdessä julkisia puheenaiheita. Keskeisessä osassa ovat konsernikytkökset ja vertaaminen aikaisempaan, noin kymmenen vuoden takaiseen aiheesta tehtyyn tutkimukseen. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytetään määrällistä sisällönerittelyä sekä laadullista sisällön analyysia tapaustutkimusten muodossa. Tapaustutkimuksilla selvitetään syvemmin määrällisessä luokittelussa esiin nousse…
