Preliminary evaluation of an analog procedure to assess acceptability of intimate partner violence against women: The Partner Violence Acceptability …
2015
Acceptability of partner violence against women is a risk factor linked to its perpetration, and to public, professionals’ and victims’ responses to this behavior. Research on the acceptability of violence in intimate partner relationships is, however, limited by reliance solely on self-reports that often provide distorted or socially desirable accounts that may misrepresent respondents’ true attitudes. This study presents data on the development and initial validation of a new analog task assessing respondents’ acceptability of physical violence toward women in intimate relationships: the Partner Violence Acceptability Movie task (PVAM). This new analog task is intended to provide a more i…
La realtà aumentata come strumento interattivo per la diffusione della conoscenza: l’isolato urbano FF1 nel Parco Archeologico di Selinunte
2018
Questo contributo presenta gli sviluppi di una ricerca fondata sulle recenti tecnologie per la realtà aumentata come strumento di ausilio alla visita di siti museali e archeologici. Il progetto di ricerca, iniziato nel 2016 con lo studio di una applicazione basata sulla tecnologia Google Tango dedicata al museo parigino della Cité de l’architecture et du patrimoine, è destinato alla creazione di strumenti per la visualizzazione in realtà aumentata della ricostruzione virtuale di due case dell’isolato urbano FF1 nel Parco Archeologico di Selinunte, sfruttando la più recente piattaforma di sviluppo Google ARCore. This paper presents the development of a research focusing the latest technologi…
"[...] L'architettura non è un Martini". Riflessioni sul BIM; "[...] Architecture is not a Martini". Reflections about BIM
2016
Da qualche anno il BIM sta diventando lo strumento principale nella progettazione, nel rilievo dell’esistente e nel recupero del patrimonio edilizio. In Italia tra le novità del Nuovo Codice Appalti vi è l’utilizzo del BIM che costituisce uno strumento per una riformulazione del rapporto fra amministrazione e impresa soprattutto per ridurre le varianti e quindi i costi di produzione e conseguentemente di gestione. Così come a tanti vantaggi, il BIM potrebbe portare anche a rischi e conseguenze negative, soprattutto nella fase progettuale, dovute al contributo dei vari attori che esso contiene al proprio interno. Attraverso le parole di alcuni Maestri, di studiosi della rappresentazione e co…

Neutrinos below 100 TeV from the southern sky employing refined veto techniques to IceCube data
2020
Many Galactic sources of gamma rays, such as supernova remnants, are expected to produce neutrinos with a typical energy cutoff well below 100 TeV. For the IceCube Neutrino Observatory located at the South Pole, the southern sky, containing the inner part of the Galactic plane and the Galactic Center, is a particularly challenging region at these energies, because of the large background of atmospheric muons. In this paper, we present recent advancements in data selection strategies for track-like muon neutrino events with energies below 100 TeV from the southern sky. The strategies utilize the outer detector regions as veto and features of the signal pattern to reduce the background of atm…
Strengthening of Masonry Columns with BFRCM or with Steel Wires: An Experimental Study
2016
Nowadays, innovative materials are more frequently adopted for strengthening historical constructions and masonry structures. The target of these techniques is to improve the structural efficiency with retrofitting methods while having a reduced aesthetical impact. In particular, the use of basalt fiber together with a cementitious matrix emerges as a new technique. This kind of fiber is obtained by basalt rock without other components, and consequently it could be considered a natural material, compatible with masonry. Another innovative technique for strengthening masonry columns consists of applying steel wires in the correspondence of mortar joints. Both techniques have been recently pr…
Sexism and Aggression in Adolescence.¿How Do They Relate to Perceived Academic Achievement?
2018
Sexist attitudes are rooted in patriarchal structures, which uphold traditional gender stereotypes, and which are still found in society today. Scholars have found gender differences in perceived academic achievement, with girls performing better than boys, and negative relationships between sexism and perceived academic achievement. Moreover, perceived academic achievement and sexist attitudes have been associated with aggression and different kinds of violence. This study examined the associations between sexist attitudes and perceived academic achievement (using self-report data). The study also assessed the mediating role of physical and verbal aggression in the relationship between sex…
Dried-fruit shell reuse in green construction and building materials
2023
Bio-architecture is a new way of designing and building in line with the European Green Deal and in light of the circular economy principles. This new green approach is guiding the entire construction life cycle toward eco-sustainability and environmental friendliness, from the beginning to the end of the building process. In addition to the use of environmentally-friendly and high-performance building and construction materials, it is necessary to use new technologies that can reduce the environmental footprint. This paper aims to examine the possible reuse of biological wastes of agricultural origin of the Mediterranean basin, whose massive production generates a number of problems for th…

Abstract Objectives To examine how gender functions in the narrative construction of dual career styles, and how these styles impact the (dis)continuation of a dual career pathway. Design Longitudinal qualitative study. Method Life story interviews with 18 talented Finnish athletes (10 cis women, 8 cis men) at four points in time – when they averaged 16, 17, 19, and 20 years of age – followed by an integrative narrative-discursive analysis. Results (a) contrapuntal style was gender-typically female; (b) monophonic style was gender-typically male; and (c) dissonant style was an important pathway to dual career discontinuation through which gender ideologies impacted the emergent adults with …
La rajola a la costa i els residus a l’interior. Mapa dels conflictes socioecològics al País Valencià
2020
EnglishIn the last decade, the Valencian Country has experimented a growth of the productive processes that has led to an unprecedented degradation of the territory. At the same time, the increase in the ecological, material and carbon footprint has led to the generation of socio-ecological conflicts. A typology of socio-ecological conflicts is proposed, consisting of 5 categories —derived from urban processes, infrastructures, pollution and public health, the extraction of mineral resources and the use of water resources—, which classifies and places them on the 'map of the socio-ecological conflicts of the Valencia Country'. The map locates such environmental conflicts. Furthermore, the u…
