Identity profiles and digital engagement among Finnish high school students
2018
Developing a stable personal identity is considered a more precarious task in today’s society than hitherto. Skilful digital engagement may, however, constitute a valuable asset in necessary identity exploration and commitment. Applying a person-oriented approach, we examined for the first time how identity profiles are associated with digital engagement, operationalized as digital competence, gaming seriousness, type of internet activity and excessive ICT use. After controlling for gender, life satisfaction and parental SES, this study of a Finnish high school sample (N = 932) revealed that adolescents with future commitments and some exploration of options (achievement, searching moratori…

This conclusion is discussed, understanding that the analysis of the singularities of the gypsy people must lead to the conclusion of the existence of indirect discrimination.

2021
Regulations (EU) 2016/1103 and 2016/1104 provide spouses and partners with the possibility to conclude agreements for the organization of their property regime but do not detail their content and structure. Moreover, while the possibility to conclude those agreements even prior to the marriage or the conclusion of a registered partnership is a valuable innovation in comparison with other European Regulations in family matters, some choices made by the European legislator on applicable law will likely be source of inconveniences. Furthermore, as for their recognition and enforcement in the participating Member States ? which will be based on the same rules enacted for decisions, authentic in…

Evaluación de la biodisponibilidad oral de isoflavonas: papel de la microbiota intestinal
2014
El papel de las isoflavonas en la salud ha despertado un interés importante recientemente. Sin embargo, pocos son los estudios rigurosos al respecto, ya que en muchas ocasiones los efectos se infieren de prácticas tradicionales en los que concurren muchas otras variables además del factor en estudio. Mayor desconocimiento existe acerca de la coadministración de varias de estas sustancias o complementos cuando es una práctica habitual. En el presente proyecto se caracteriza la influencia de suplementos de microbiota sobre la biodisponibilidad de las isoflavonas. Ambos se utilizan con frecuencia en condiciones de premenopausia o durante el climaterio para compensar transtornos asociados al mi…

Experiences of students with HIV/AIDS in rural, post-conflict Uganda
2015
The roll out of Anti-Retroviral Therapy across Sub-Saharan Africa has given rise to a new generation of adolescents that previously would not have survived into their teen years. The aim of this research is to give voice to these young people, specifically HIV positive students, in the rural, post-conflict area of Katakwi, Uganda. Through the lens of empowerment, which focuses on participation, capacity building, leadership potential, and relationships, this research examines the factors in these students’ lives that contribute to their empowerment, or the absence of these factors that then have the potential to disempower them. It considers the way the students themselves see both the prot…
Aids e la globalizzazione della sessualità
2012
il contributo di Dennis Altman che muove da ricerche condotte in precedenza dall'autore1 sulle dinamiche della globalizzazione e sugli effetti sui costumi ed i comportamenti sessuali che, come sostiene, sono in relazione con la diffusione ed il controllo del virus dell'HIV dell'AIDS. L'AIDS, nello specifico, ha comportato che le sessualità legate ai mutamenti sociali ed economici in atto divenissero tema centrale delle politiche pubbliche, concentrando l'attenzione politica sul “collasso” delle strutture sociali e culturali tradizionali, che si trattasse della idealizzazione della famiglia nucleare occidentale o delle più tradizionali famiglie estese delle società non occidentali. Lo studio…
