Secure attachment and individual protective factors against internalized homophobia
2019
This article explores the relationship between internalized homophobia and three main variables: attachment to mother, father, and peers; ego resiliency; and self-esteem. We recruited 51 Italian gay men and 54 lesbian women aged between 18 and 30, and asked them to complete self-report measures. The results showed that internalized homophobia negatively correlated with the security of attachment to father and self-esteem. On the other hand, no significant association was found between ego resiliency and internalized homophobia. The implications of these findings are considered in the discussion, along with the potential role of preventive programs targeting attachment relationships and self…
When Violence Can Appear With Different Male Partners: Identification of Resilient and Non-resilient Women in the European Union
2018
Introduction: Little scholarly attention has been paid to the analysis of the history of intimate partner violence (IPV) against women with different male partners and how it could be related to levels of IPV with the current male partner. From this point of view, been a victim of IPV could increase the vulnerability of women and, therefore, exert a negative influence on the selection of partners over time, thus increasing the odds of potentially mating with abusive male partners. Alternatively, for some women victims of IPV in previous relationships, there may be additional resources that reduce their vulnerability to victimization by new partners. Methodology: The present study analyzes l…
Un futuro per Kiribati : proposte di intervento per insediamenti abitativi resilienti
2020
Secondo il Rapporto Speciale dell’IPCC Oceano e Criosfera in un clima che cambia, il livello dei mari è cresciuto a un ritmo di 3,6 mm all’anno nel periodo compreso tra il 2005 e il 2015, aumentando più velocemente nel corso dell’ultimo secolo a causa dello scioglimento delle calotte di ghiaccio e dell’espansione termica dell’oceano. Questo aumenta i rischi per le popolazioni che vivono nelle zone costiere ed in particolare per quelle che abitano le regioni artiche e gli atolli come le isole di Kiribati che, entro la metà del secolo potrebbero diventare inabitabili. I sistemi di protezione delle coste e i processi di adattamento che utilizzano gli ecosistemi e soluzioni derivate dalla natur…

Planning Rehabilitation Actions on Water Distribution Networks in Condition of Data Scarcity
2011
The paper shows a viable approach to the selection of water networks rehabilitation actions, in condition of data scarcity and uncertainty, based on the use of four concise performance literature indices, allowing the analysis and identification of efficient, reliable and robust rehabilitation alternatives, even if assessed on the basis of a relatively small amount of data. A promising statistical sampling method of water consumptions is also described, that may be fruitfully employed within the proposed approach for drafting water balances at network district scale in order to quantify the extent of leakages. The illustrated case study shows that the selected indices are capable to describ…
GDL90fuzz: Fuzzing - GDL-90 Data Interface Specification Within Aviation Software and Avionics Devices–A Cybersecurity Pentesting Perspective
2022
As the core part of next-generation air transportation systems, the Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is becoming very popular. However, many (if not most) ADS-B devices and implementations support and rely on Garmin’s GDL-90 protocol for data exchange and encapsulation. In this paper, we research GDL-90 protocol fuzzing options and demonstrate practical Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks on popular Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) software operating on mobile devices. For this purpose, we specifically configured our own avionics pentesting platform. and targeted the popular Garmin’s GDL-90 protocol as the industry-leading devices operate on it. We captured legitimate traffic from …
Work satisfaction, psychological resiliency and sense of coherence as correlates of work engagement
2018
The objective of the article is to describe the links between work engagement—the response variable, work satisfaction—the explanatory variable, and sense of coherence, along with resiliency as resources—moderating variables. The theoretical foundations for our hypotheses are Hackman and Oldham’s Job Charcteristics Model, Block and Kremen’s conception of resiliency, Antonovsky’s salutogenesis, the JD-R of relation between work demands and resources and also the model of work engagement in the research of Schaufeli, Salanova, González-romá, and Bakker. Methods: 94 independent workers of Polish branches of international corporations were studied. Work satisfaction was measured using the SSP s…
Ἔκπληξις e κατάπληξις: shock e resilienza in Tucidide
2012
Because of their ambiguous position between irrational frailty and rational choice, the emotions play a strategic role in Thucydides’ narrative system as well as in his historiographical paradigm. This paper aims at demonstrating the importance of emotions in particular circumstances: ekplexis (and kataplexis) as expressions of fear. The analysis of some crucial passages shows indeed the importance of fear within the historian’s view, where it is presented as a sentiment, both negative and positive, useful to the decision-making in the polis of the fifth century.
Il legame di attaccamento ai genitori e ai pari come predittore dell’autostima e dell’ego-resiliency.
2017
The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between the quality of attachment relationships with parents and peers on the one hand, and ego-resiliency and self- esteem on the other hand. The present research was conducted with a group of 218 students (male = 101) aged from 11 to 19 years (M = 14.43, DS = 2.60). The results emphasize that (a) self-esteem is positively associated only with security of attachment to the mother, (b) ego-resil- iency is positively associated with security of attachment both to mother and peers, and (c) boys seem to have higher levels of self-esteem and ego-resiliency than girls.
Quando la chirurgia estetica diventa teen
2014
La ricerca si pone l’obiettivo di indagare alcune variabili psicosociali ritenute dalla letteratura sull’argomento elementi importanti dell’interesse per la chirurgia estetica, come la percezione corporea e l’Ego-resiliency, in un gruppo di 210 adolescenti e giovani donne del territorio paler-mitano. I dati mostrano come la percezione di sé abbia un ruolo centrale, essendo l’unica variabile tra quelle indagate che influisce sull’interesse per la chirurgia estetica. Inoltre, l’Ego-resiliency, ossia la capacità di gestire in modo flessibile i propri impulsi e le proprie emozioni e di adattarsi efficacemente alle richieste dell’ambiente, è fortemente legato alla percezione di sé, che, a sua vo…
