Associations between perceived parental psychological control and internalizing difficulties in emerging adulthood: the role of identity

2016

Our study investigated the associations among two expressions of perceived parental psychological control (dependency-oriented parental control [DPC] and achievement-oriented parental control [APC]), identity, and internalizing difficulties among college-attending emerging adults. In particular, our aim was to examine the potential role of identity in the pathways linking both DPC and APC to internalizing difficulties. Our participants included 495 Italian college students (49% males), between 19 and 28 years of age (mean = 23.37 years, standard deviation = 2.35). Our findings highlighted the existence of associations between APC, identity, and internalizing difficulties. Specifically, APC…

Psykoterapeutin henkilökohtaisten ominaisuuksien merkitys psykoterapiassa ja niiden vaikutus tuloksellisuuteen identiteettihaastattelun perusteella

2018

The purpose of my study was to use the Psychotherapist Identity Interview (PII) method, developed for this study and based on Erik H. Erikson's and Heinz Kohut's theories, to examine the significance of the personal characteristics of psychotherapists for psychotherapy, and their effect on treatment results. The study described the theoretical background and development of the interview method and the validation of the instrument. The study involved 68 contract therapists from the Helsinki Psychotherapy Study and 333 patients, of whom 65 therapists and 308 patients were included in the as-sessment of benefit from therapy. Videotaped, semistructured therapist interviews were assessed using 1…

Unique aspects of the professional identity of tattooed psychologists : the professional self-esteem, sense of not belonging and intentional behavior…

2013

Tatuointien ja lävistysten kasvava suosio on alkanut yleistyä kaikissa sosiaalisissa ja ammatillisissa luokissa, mukaan lukien psykologian opiskelijat ja jopa ammattilaiset psykologit. Tatuoinnit eivät ole enää pelkkä rikollisten ja kapinallisten merkki – niistä on tullut kaikille saatavilla oleva muoti-ilmiö. Ne eivät ole ennenkuulumattomia koristeita monelle nykyiselle ja tulevalle psykologillekaan, joiden työ vaatii oman ulkoasun harkintaa ja nojaa hyvin pitkälti vuorovaikutussuhteen laatuun. Tämä laadullinen tapaustutkimus neljästä tatuoidusta suomalaisesta psykologian ja psykiatrian alan ammattilaisesta pyrkii tutkimaan mitä mahdollisia vaikutuksia tatuoinneilla voi olla psykologin kok…

'I Show Off, Therefore I Am': The Politics of the Selfie

2016

International audience; Named word of the year by the OED in 2013, the “selfie” is a worldwide phenomenon. Many see these digital self-portraits as markers for the spread of narcissism or signs of the blurring of limits between the public and private spheres. Initially popular with young people, selfies were soon adopted by politicians who, in a mediatized society, are eager to adhere to new vogues and use digital trends to self-promote. Like “digital natives”, they attempt to go viral by turning their cellphones on themselves and tweeting. Contrary to more formal images (official portraits, campaign posters) where politicians are clearly packaged and marketed, self-snapped photos taken on …

Making Gibellina Nuova

2012

The 1968 earthquake destroyed the Sicilian town Gibellina. The citizens were then moved into a New City drawn by the Institute for Social Building Development ISES in a plain formerly used only for agriculture. How to give identity to an urban infrastructural system spread between fields? Quaroni and Anversa, who were comissioned to construct the building of the main church, combined the necessity of identity with a symbol of the city's rebirth project. The dome of the church is a spherical structure, recognizable in this way from close-up as well as from far away. “To make the city” it is necessary to embed the church into a context through the design of public space. Only then, Quaroni’s …

Despidos laborales. Fracturas sociales e identitarias

2008

Los varios miles de despidos colectivos que han inaugurado el comienzo de siglo en España no suponen solo casi doscientos mil empleos destruidos, muchos de ellos con una larguísima vigencia, otros tantos proyectos de vida quebrados, sino también formas de reproducción social, de identidad rotas, instituciones y garantías sociales que se desmoronan. Sorprendentemente, estas fracturas sociales quedan eclipsadas con frecuencia tras unos discursos que apelan a los imperativos económicos, a las exigencias de la modernización, a los requerimientos de la lógica de la globalización. En el presente artículo se indagan las consecuencias del quebranto de la vinculación social entretejida en la segunda…

Minoranze migranti

2013

Si affronta la doppia valenza dei nuclei di migranti extracomunitari: popoli in movimento da una parte e minoranze etniche dall'altra. Con conseguenze proprie della doppia valenza: esigenza di integrarsi e bisogno di coltivare la propria identità. The double value of migrant peoples: peoples in migration, by one hand, and ethnic minorities, by the other. With specific consequencies of the double value: to integrate to the majorities and to reaffirm originary identity.

Radial symmetry of p-harmonic minimizers

2017

"It is still not known if the radial cavitating minimizers obtained by Ball [J.M. Ball, Discontinuous equilibrium solutions and cavitation in nonlinear elasticity, Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. A 306 (1982) 557--611] (and subsequently by many others) are global minimizers of any physically reasonable nonlinearly elastic energy". The quotation is from [J. Sivaloganathan and S. J. Spector, Necessary conditions for a minimum at a radial cavitating singularity in nonlinear elasticity, Ann. Inst. H. Poincare Anal. Non Lineaire 25 (2008), no. 1, 201--213] and seems to be still accurate. The model case of the $p$-harmonic energy is considered here. We prove that the planar radial minimizers are indee…

Sociology of Ethnic Multiculturalism: crisis of integration, identity, reciprocity,governance

2012

When a multiethnic society can be defined multicultural? The analysis proposed in this book aims to contribute to the understanding of integration policies, of trends and their effects on social, economic and political , and the influence they have on migration politics. The analysis is also based on the political and cultural debate regarding the failure (or decline) of Western models of integration. The ipothesis supported in this work is that the alleged failure of multiculturalism on the basis of ethnicity, especially in Europe, reflecting a social political crisis of the western countries, that being immature to develop postmodern values of coexistence between each other; on the one ha…
