Una Guernica di mare. “Esodi” & “Origami” di Massimiliano Scuderi

2018

L’articolo prende in esame due dipinti incentrati sui temi dell’immigrazione e della chiusura dei porti realizzate dall’artista palermitano Massimiliano Scuderi: Esodi (2018) e Origami (2018), al fine di ragionare sulla situazione odierna che vede geograficamente alcune terre e alcuni porti più esposti e coinvolti di altri in fatto di accoglienza, soccorso e solidarietà, ma che, per via di certe scelte politiche, si negano quali culture della condivisione, dell’accoglienza, dell’incontro, della connessione e della solidarietà prescrivendo il rifiuto degli immigrati. Il saggio evidenzia il potere che ha il linguaggio artistico di essere trasversale nel tempo e nello spazio, di farsi testimon…

A collective case study of athletic identity and successful injury rehabilitation

2015

A severe injury is an identity threatening situation for competitive athletes. Previous literature suggests that having a strong athletic identity can be beneficial for the athlete when injured. To the date there has been little research on how athletic identity is managed during that challenging time of injury. The purpose of this study was to explore how athletic identity is managed during the injury and rehabilitation phase before returning to competitive sport. Knowing the determinants of athletic identity management allows practitioners to adjust their interventions toward specific issues when working with injured athletes. The present study is a qualitative, collective case study. Her…

The Utrecht-Management of Identity Commitments Scale (U-MICS)

2021

Abstract. The current study proposed the adaptation of the Utrecht-Management of Identity Commitments Scale (U-MICS) to the religious domain as an instrument to measure both individuals’ religious identity formation processes (when a variable-centered approach is adopted) and religious identity statuses (when a person-centered approach is adopted). The scale has been tested on a sample of 727 Italian participants aged 13–65 years, by collecting evidence of score structure, convergent, and criterion-related validity. Regarding the score structure validity, we confirmed that religious identity formation consists of three processes (commitment, in-depth exploration, reconsideration of commitm…

Accounting in Identity Regulation : Producing the Appropriate Worker

2021

It is acknowledged that identity regulation in organizations relies on discursive resources. This study moves beyond discourse – illustrating how discourse and accounting measurements are mobilized together in revising identity. Measurement produces persistence, clarity, transparency and comparability, as well as direction: Accounting’s quantitative knowledge ‘amplifies’ discourse. We explain the Great Alliance between words and numbers in a case study addressing events in an organization’s transformation. This extends our understanding of what takes place on the interface between identity and accounting. peerReviewed

CLIL teachers in Finland : The role of emotions in professional identity negotiation

2017

Research on emotions has yielded many theoretical perspectives and many concepts. Yet, most scholars have focused on how emotions influence the transformation and maintenance of teacher identities in the field of teacher education and novice teachers, with little research being conducted on either experienced or foreign language teachers. This study explores emotions in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) teachers’ work and their role in identity negotiation. The data is based on interviews with thirteen CLIL teachers working at six different primary schools around Finland, while the analysis draws on Meijers’ (2002) model of identity as a learning process. According to this mod…

Hence, when striving to establish a healthy workplace with high levels of satisfaction and well-being, one has to understand the dynamics of workplace communication. This chapter examines interpersonal com…

Identity construction in the comments section of TomandLorenzo.com

2016

Virtual spaces as sites of social interactions and therefore identity work have become common over the past few decades. Alongside, research focus on such spaces has increased. This MA thesis constitutes a small contribution to the study of interactional identity building through computer mediated communication. The study was conducted on data gathered from a subsection of popular-culture blog tomandlorenzo. The aim was to identify how interactants in this space interactively work their identities. The qualitative discourse analysis focused on three mechanics of identity building, those of indexicality, performativity and stance taking. The investigation also took the influence of the mediu…
