The relation between social identity and test anxiety in university students
2018
Social identification has been shown to be a protective resource for mental health. In this study, the relationships between social identification and emotional, as well as cognitive symptoms of test anxiety are investigated. Participants were university students diagnosed with test anxiety ( N = 108). They completed questionnaires regarding a range of psychopathologic stress symptoms, and their social identification with fellow students and with their study program. Results reveal negative relations between social identification and almost all investigated emotional and cognitive symptoms of test anxiety. Based on this study, interventions could be developed that strengthen the social iden…
Identity and Online Groups
2017
Questions related to identity have been central to discussions on online communication since the dawn of the Internet. One of the positions advocated by early Internet pioneers and scholars on computer-mediated communication was that online communication would differ from face-to-face communication in the way traditional markers of identity (such as gender, age, etc.) would be visible for interlocutors. It was theorized that these differences would manifest both as reduced social cues as well as greater control in the way we present ourselves to others. This position was linked to ideas about fluid identities and identity play inherent to post-modern thinking. Lately, the technological and …
Diritti dei figli vs. genitorialità same-sex: antitesi o composizione? Il dialogo (muto?) tra la Corte costituzionale e il legislatore italiano

Il lavoro critica, poi, il percorso argomentativo della Consulta che, condizionata dal presupposto della assoluta e inscalfibile riprovazione nel nostro ordinamento della tecnica di procreazione medicalmente assistita, ha dato per assodato ciò che (la non trascrivibilità dell’atto straniero) in realtà avrebbe dovuto essere oggetto di scrutinio. Sollevando dubbi sull’opportunità …

Cultural identification, perceived discrimination and sense of community as predictors of life satisfaction among foreign partners of intercultural f…
2014
The aim of this paper was to analyze how cultural identification, perceived discrimination and the sense of community are related to life satisfaction among foreign partners in intercultural families. The study compared 105 and 95 foreign partners in mixed families resident in Italy and Spain, respectively. The phenomenon in both countries displays similar sociodemographic aspects. In contrast to Social Identity Theory, the results show that in both groups the foreign partner's identification with their own ethnic-‐cultural group is not associated with life satisfaction, nor does it increase perce…
