Test-retest reliability of survey items on ownership and use of physical activity trackers
2019
Background: Researchers are interested in using digital tools, such as physical activity trackers (PAT), to promote and measure physical activity. PAT is a fast-growing research area that measures movement therefore, reliable questions on the ownership and use of PATs among adolescent populations need to be developed. Objective: The aim of this study was to conduct an intra-rater test-retest reliability study on PAT survey items used for surveillance purposes among young adolescents in ownership and use of smartphone applications (apps) and heart rate monitors (HRM).

Monitoraggio e percezione delle esperienze formative internazionali tra gli specializzandi italiani in igiene e medicina preventiva. Indagine condott…
2013
Introduzione Molti studi hanno dimostrato che le esperienze formative internazionali (International Health Electives - IHE) contribuiscono all'acquisizione di conoscenze e competenze fondamentali per i futuri professionisti in Sanità proprio attraverso l'opportunità di confronto fra sistemi sanitari e contesti socio-culturali differenti. Sebbene le IHE siano in crescita, non ci sono dati che riguardino quelle svolte dagli specializzandi italiani in Igiene. L'obiettivo dello studio è di raccogliere informazioni sulle loro pregresse esperienze formative internazionali e di comprendere motivazioni ed eventuali criticità relative alla decisione di effettuare una IHE. Materiali e metodi Gli spec…
Dal disegno alla misura. Ricostruzione del fronte di palazzo Aiutamicristo a Palermo
2020
I laser scanner e la fotogrammetria SfM hanno scardinato il legame tradizionale fra misura e disegno, fissato negli eidotipi che spesso prefiguravano i disegni di restituzione. Il contributo che segue intende dimostrare, attraverso una esemplificazione su un caso studio, che le tecnologie digitali e il lavoro di indagine su repliche del reale, esaltano, attraverso nuovi modi di interazione fra disegno e misura, la possibilità di indagare l’architettura costruita per decodificarne lo schema, il progetto. Il caso studio prescelto è il fronte principale di palazzo Aiutamicristo, costruito a Palermo a partire dal 1490 su progetto di Matteo Carnilivari. Il prospetto di palazzo Aiutamicristo avrà…

Afterword

It is well known that the disciplines of representation contain many souls, from visual communication to the history of representation, from relief drawing to project drawing, from descriptive geometry to digital transitions; and then there are two great strands, the architectural and the engineering, one more humanistic, the other more technical.

2023

Onnistuminen muotoilussa : muotoilijan työn tavoitteiden mittaus ja arviointi
2016
Muotoilun arvoa on mitattu yleensä lopputulosta ja ulkoisia hyötyjä arvioiden. Se, miten muotoilija itse määrittelee työnsä tavoitteet, on jäänyt vähäisemmälle huomiolle. Tässä tutkielmassa esitetään mittauskehikko muotoilijoiden omalle työlleen asettamien tavoitteiden mittaamista, kuvailua, vertailua ja toimialan kehityksen seurantaa varten. Mitattavan ilmiön hypoteesi käsittää seitsemän ulottuvuutta: kolme ekologisen kestävyyden periaatetta ja yhden sosiaalisen kestävyyden periaatteen sekä loppukäyttäjän tarpeet, muotoilijan omat tarpeet ja ulkoiset vaatimukset. Tutkielman alussa kuvaillaan muotoilualaa ja sen muutoksia Suomessa sekä arvojen merkitystä muotoilijan työssä. Teorialuku jäsen…
