Historicism: Some Thoughts on Life-World
1993
More than three decades ago, Walter Biemel read a paper at the Third Colloquium of Philosophy at Royaumont on “The Decisive Phases in the Development of Husserl’s Philosophy” that seemed to be definitive.1 Notwithstanding the great value of the facts and reflections that he provided, and the numerous studies devoted afterwards to the same problem, it is not easy to fix different stages in Husserl’s work. This difficulty is increased by the lack of a strict synchrony between the works that Husserl himself published and those that remained unpublished after his death and have been laboriously recovered by his disciples. Actually, in manuscripts belonging to early moments in his life we find t…
Emozioni e relazione educativa nella scuola secondaria. Saggi sulle competenze degli insegnanti
2021
Teacher education has long been at the heart of pedagogical research. However, especially if we consider the recent Italian pedagogical research, we observe that most of the attention has been devoted to disciplinary and didactic skills, which are a necessary but not sufficient condition for the acquisition of an adequate professional profile. Especially for secondary school this gap is evident: while the training paths of educators, primary school and kindergarten teachers include a specific and broad pedagogical attention to the care of relationships and therefore to emotional competence, this is not the case in the current training paths of secondary school teachers nor in specialization…
The meaning of slow nursing in dementia care.
2015
Research literature in the dementia field lacks examples of ‘best-practices’ demonstrating concretely how it is possible to support the sense of coherence in people with dementia. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the nurses’ views concerning a caring approach that may support the sense of coherence in people with dementia. The data were collected through participant observation and focus group interviews during a four-month period in 2011. Sixteen registered nurses recruited from two Norwegian nursing homes participated in this study. The data were interpreted using a phenomenological-hermeneutical method. Three themes were identified: ‘being in the moment’, ‘doing one thing at a…

How Our Gaze Reacts to Another Person’s Tears? Experimental Insights Into Eye Tracking Technology
2020
Crying is an ubiquitous human behavior through which an emotion is expressed on the face together with visible tears and constitutes a slippery riddle for researchers. To provide an answer to the question “How our gaze reacts to another person’s tears?,” we made use of eye tracking technology to study a series of visual stimuli. By presenting an illustrative example through an experimental setting specifically designed to study the “tearing effect,” the present work aims to offer methodological insight on how to use eye-tracking technology to study non-verbal cues. A sample of 30 healthy young women with normal visual acuity performed a within-subjects task in which they evaluated images of…

The 'Extreme Female Brain' : Increased Cognitive Empathy as a Dimension of Psychopathology
2016
Abstract Baron-Cohen's ‛extreme male brain' theory postulates that autism involves exaggerated male-typical psychology, with reduced empathizing (considered here as social–emotional interest, motivation and abilities) and increased systemizing (non-social, physical-world and rule-based interest, motivation and abilities), in association with its male-biased sex ratio. The concept of an ‘extreme female brain', involving some combination of increased empathizing and reduced systemizing, and its possible role in psychiatric conditions, has been considerably less well investigated. Female-biased sex ratios have been described in two conditions, depression and borderline personality disorder (BP…
