2020

This longitudinal study covering two educational transitions examined 1,821 Finnish students’ participation in and identification with school and their associations with students’ academic achievement and truancy.

In alignment with the participation-identification model, higher levels of participation in school activities at the end of primary school predicted higher levels of identification (i.e., feelings of belonging and valuing school) at the end of lower secondary school.

This study presents a variation scheme of participation roles in consulting projects.

Physical activity measured by accelerometry among adolescents participating in sports clubs and non-participating peers

2022

The purpose of this descriptive cross-sectional study is to describe the amount and intensity of physical activity (PA) measured by accelerometry among adolescents participating in organized sports (SCP) and age-matched non-participating peers (NP). SCPs (332) and NPs (139) wore an accelerometer on the hip for seven days. PA was reported using the 1-min exponential moving average. The current moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) recommendation of at least an average of 60 min of MVPA daily was reached by 85% of SCPs and 45% of NPs (p < .001). During training days, the MVPA times among SCPs ranged from 153 ± 39 min in males and 109 ± 35 min in females participating in basketball to …

Partecipazione e pianificazione del paesaggio. Criticità e controversie nell’applicazione dei principi della Convenzione Europea del Paesaggio in Sic…

2021

I processi di trasformazione del territorio hanno contribuito nel corso del Novecento a produrre fenomeni di alterazione delle configurazioni tradizionali di molti dei territori dal grande valore identitario, generando innumerevoli detrattori e generando banalizzazione e omologazione del paesaggio. Non sempre tali azioni, infatti, sono state orientate da piani coerenti e dotati di visone organica e d’insieme. D’altro canto, la presenza di strumenti di pianificazione non è scontato che garantisca efficacia nelle azioni di tutela. Tale incongruenza sempre più spesso manifesta la propria consistenza nel passaggio dai principi e dagli indirizzi di livello generale (inclusi quelli contenuti nell…

As a result, democracy, which is strongly linked with the citizens’ political participation, will emerge. Finally, it is necessary to assume the presence of citizens in the political debate, to render democracy ali…

La partecipazione digitale per una visione nuova delle città

2017

Le città sono da sempre state luogo di produzione e di relazioni sociali e territoriali. Non si può considerare la città semplicemente come un elemento fisico fine a se stesso. Oggi le città stanno attraversando processi repentini di cambiamento, esse diventano luogo di scambio e di fruizione di dati, creazione di reti tramite l’infrastruttura digitale e le tecnologie open source. I cittadini, per mezzo della digitalizzazione si riappropriano dello spazio urbano cambiando il modo di concepirlo e di viverlo quasi come se fosse un gioco. I processi partecipativi divengono sempre più frequenti, strettamente legati alle pratiche di pianificazione urbanistica e in molti casi devono obbligatoriam…
