Validity and reliability of the checklist of non-verbal pain indicators in Albanian. First step
2018
Background: in Albania non ci sono strumenti affidabili per valutare la presenza di dolore nei pazienti non-verbalizzanti. L'obiettivo del nostro studio era di fornire una validazione linguistica della checklist in albanese per gli indicatori di dolore non verbale (CNPI). Metodi: dopo la traduzione inversa, abbiamo usato la versione albanese in uno studio trasversale per verificare sia l'affidabilità che la validità di questo strumento in contesti clinici. La Visual Analog Scale è stata adottata come gold standard. Sono stati usati anche il kappa di Cohen e il coefficiente di correlazione di Pearson. La validità costruttiva del CNPI è stata stabilita mediante l'analisi fattoriale esplorativ…
Costrutti locativi e non locativi con mettere
2013
Sentence (a) Ada mise Pio nel sacco is ambiguous: one of its meanings is literal (Ada put Pio in the sack), whereas the other is figurative (Ada fooled / outsmarted Pio). Such ambiguity is not present in sentence (b) Ada mise Pio in un sacco. On the surface, (b) differs from (a) only insofar as the indefinite article is employed, but conveys a literal meaning exclusively (Ada put Pio in a sack). The ambiguity of sentence (a) is derived from the existence of two constructions employing mettere. The prepositional phrase of one of them displays standard paradigmatic properties and conveys literal (i.e. locative) meaning, whereas the other has no locative value and is highly constrained (e.g. n…
Associations between Teacher- and Student-directed Sexual and Physical Violence in Physical Education
2022
This study examined relationships between teachers’ perceptions of verbal and non-verbal sexual harassment and physical violence against teachers and among students in physical education (PE). Participants were 175 (females 122, males 53) Finnish PE teachers between 27 and 62 years (M = 44.8 ± 9.2 years). The cross-sectional data were collected by an anonymous online survey in the fall semester 2018. The findings showed that (a) higher levels of verbal sexual harassment and physical violence among students were associated with higher levels of equivalent types of violence against PE teachers, (b) higher levels of verbal and non-verbal sexual harassment among students were associated with hi…
Bezpośredniość niewerbalna w kreowaniu postawy nauczyciela jako niespecyficznego czynnika w oddziaływaniach pedagogicznych
2013
One of the most important nonspecific pedagogical factors is the attitude of a teacher which presents especially credibility, self-confidence, commanding sympathy and empathy as well as interpersonal and physical attractiveness. The use of nonverbal signals presenting nonverbal straightforwardness is helpful to demonstrate these attitudes. It is expressed by frequent smiling to students, maintaining the eye contact, using friendly gestures and variety of vocal signals (differentiation of voice, avoiding the monotony), leaning forward to the students, relaxed posture, using the touch, the personal space and physical factors of a classroom (e.g. equipment, seating arrangements). Teachers who …
La formazione dell’avvocatura (2009-2012) Percorsi di diritto processuale civile
2012
Questo piccolo volume si propone di raccogliere le riflessioni e le esperienze maturate in tre anni di lavoro nel campo della formazione degli avvocati. Sebbene si sia scelto di limitare il campo di indagine alle sole tematiche di carattere processualcivilistico, gli argomenti affrontati non possono che essere assai eterogenei e distinti tra loro, come - del resto - necessariamente articolata ed eclettica è, oggi, la competenza richiesta all’avvocato. Nella scelta degli interventi si è cercato di privilegiare problematiche attuali e di interesse pratico, che postulino, però, aperture a riflessioni ed indagini teoriche, e - viceversa - argomenti di interesse teorico, che abbiano immediate re…
Assessing reading and online research comprehension: Do difficulties in attention and executive function matter?
2021
This study evaluated the relation between sixth graders' (N = 426) teacher-rated difficulties in attention and executive function (EF) and their comprehension skills. Reading comprehension was assessed with a multiple-choice task and online research and comprehension (ORC) with a problem-solving task. The analyses were controlled for gender, reading fluency and nonverbal reasoning. To investigate differences in students' performance between the tasks, comprehension skills in the multiple-choice task were also controlled for in the ORC task. Structural equation models showed that teacher-rated attention and EF difficulties were related to students' performance more in the problem-solving tas…
Verbal counting skill predicts later math performance and difficulties in middle school
2019
This study examined the role of verbal counting skill as an early predictor of math performance and difficulties (at or below −1.5 standard deviation in basic math skills) in middle school. The role of fourth-grade level arithmetical skills (i.e., calculation fluency, multi-digit arithmetic i.e. procedural calculation, and word problem solving) as mediators was also investigated. The participants included 207 children in central Finland who were studied from kindergarten to the seventh grade. Path modeling showed that verbal counting in kindergarten is a strong predictor for basic math performance in seventh grade, explaining even 52% of the variance in these skills after controlling for th…
Il passaggio dalla scrittura all'oralità in ambito forense e giudiziario
2014
Nonostante la rigida codificazione che caratterizza il linguaggio giuridico nei suoi diversi generi testuali, in questo ambito si assiste quasi regolarmente a un passaggio del testo dalla scrittura all’oralità. E’ interessante notare, inoltre, che esiste una linea di ricerca finalizzata a rintracciare nel testo scritto il segno dell’oralità che investe la sua attuazione. Ma, soprattutto, in ambito forense si assiste al processo inverso per quei testi che dalla forma orale passano a quella scritta. In questo studio si dimostrerà lo stretto rapporto che intercorre tra oralità e scrittura nel processo penale in Italia e in Spagna tenendo conto delle diverse forme che assume il dibattimento nei…

Proto-Indo-European verbal suppletion and emerging paradigms
2008
The existence of suppletion in a Proto-Indo-European language is still a question of debate (García Ramón 2002). While the evidence for such a phenomenon has been widely recognized within the verbal system of most Indo-European languages, some scholars describe it as a recent monoglot development which characterizes the history of each single language without involving a previous common stage. According to Strunk (1977), the hypothesis of a PIE suppletive paradigm based on the alternation of verbal roots such as *es- and *bhu- “be”, or *ei-/i- and *gwa-/ gwem - “go”, must be ruled out because it violates the so-called criterium-b, i.e. complementary distribution of the forms involved in a s…
