Disclosure to God as a Mediator Between Private Prayer and Psychological Well-Being in a Christian Sample.
2021
AbstractAlthough a number of studies have reported the psychological and physical benefits of prayer, only a few have examined the means by which prayer affects health. Winkeljohn Black et al. (J Relig Health 54(2):540–553, 2015. 10.1007/s10943-014-9840-4) found disclosure to God as a mediator in the relationship between prayer and mental health. In their study, the authors used Poloma and Pendleton’s (Rev Relig Res 31(1):46–53, 1989. https://doi.org/10.2307/3511023, ) model of prayer. This study examined whether disclosure to God as a mediator can be upheld with Laird et al.’s (Int J Psychol Relig 14(4):251–272, 2004) prayer model. The study included 285 Polish adults (50.2% of women), age…
Erweiterung des Kantismus, Umgestaltung der Metaphysik. Il giovane Viktor von Weizsäcker lettore di Kant
2015
This paper aims to examine the relationships between the research of young Viktor von Weizsäcker and Kant’s critical thinking. Starting from the criticism of Driesch’s Neovitalism, here are considered some of the major contributions of Weizsacker in the years 1911-1926, in order to show its path between criticism of knowledge, metaphysics, construction of a biology and a medical anthropology.
A Generative Model of the Mutual Escalation of Anxiety Between Religious Groups
2018
We propose a generative agent-based model of the emergence and escalation of xenophobic anxiety in which individuals from two different religious groups encounter various hazards within an artificial society. The architecture of the model is informed by several empirically validated theories about the role of religion in intergroup conflict. Our results identify some of the conditions and mechanisms that engender the intensification of anxiety within and between religious groups. We define mutually escalating xenophobic anxiety as the increase of the average level of anxiety of the agents in both groups over time. Trace validation techniques show that the most common conditions under which …
Forecasting Changes in Religiosity and Existential Security with an Agent-Based Model
2018
We employ existing data sets and agent-based modeling to forecast changes in religiosity and existential security among a collective of individuals over time. Existential security reflects the extent of economic, socioeconomic and human development provided by society. Our model includes agents in social networks interacting with one another based on the education level of the agents, the religious practices of the agents, and each agent's existential security within their natural and social environments. The data used to inform the values and relationships among these variables is based on rigorous statistical analysis of the International Social Survey Programme Religion Module (ISSP) and…
Modelling terror management theory: computer simulations of the impact of mortality salience on religiosity
2017
ABSTRACTThis article outlines the development – and reports on the experimental findings – of two computational models designed to simulate the dynamic systems and behavioural patterns identified and clarified by research on terror management theory. The causal architectures of these models are informed by empirical research on the effects of mortality salience on “religiosity” (and vice versa). They are also informed by research on the way in which perception of personal and environmental hazards activate evolved cognitive and coalitional precautionary systems that can intensify anxiety-alleviating behaviours such as imaginative engagement with supernatural agents postulated within a relig…

Riscoprire le vecchie scoperte: il sacello presso l’Olympieion di Agrigento
2016
I risultati delle nuove indagini stratigrafiche nel sacello posto a SE del tempio di Zeus Olympios ad Agrigento, condotte da un'equipe dell'Università di Palermo diretta dalla autrici e coinvolgente anche numerosi studenti di Archeologia dell'Ateneo, insieme con lo studio integrato della documentazione d'archivio e dei vecchi scavi, consentono una ricostruzione della storia, della fisionomia e delle pratiche religiose di un edificio rimasto finora di ardua interpretazione, specie in rapporto al monumentale vicino. In particolare, viene confermata la costruzione del sacello verso la metà del VI secolo, ma si definisce una fase di rimodellamento, risalente ai primi decenni del V secolo, finor…
