PROGETTARE L’ADATTAMENTO. Resilienze di agricoltura urbana nel contesto europeo
2022
I crescenti fenomeni legati al cambiamento climatico spingono le città a sviluppare piani di resilienza che possano rispondere in termini di sostenibilità ambientale, sociale ed economica. Le strategie nature-based possono rappresentare una soluzione; tra queste l’agricoltura urbana può contribuire ad aumentare la resilienza dei tessuti urbani europei. Questa attività è stata più volte oggetto di interesse in periodi di crisi come impegno comunitario dai caratteri sociali, oltre che produttivi ed educativi. Attraverso un excursus storico e una successiva analisi di casi studio contemporanei, il paper fornisce strumenti progettuali per intervenire nel costruito con strategie che spaziano dal…
Dual Enzyme-Triggered Controlled Release on Capped Nanometric Silica Mesoporous Supports
2012
The development of nanoscopic hybrid materials equipped with “molecular gates” showing the ability of releasing target entrapped guests upon the application of an external trigger has attracted great attention and has been extensively explored during recent years.1 These nanodevices are composed of two subunits, namely, a suitable support and certain capping entities grafted on the surface of the scaffolding.2 The support is used as a suitable reservoir in which certain chemicals can be stored whereas the molecules grafted in the outer surface act as a “gate” and can control the release of the entrapped molecules at will. Both components are carefully selected and arranged in order to achie…
The Effect of Moderate- Versus High-Intensity Resistance Training on Systemic Redox State and DNA Damage in Healthy Older Women
2018
This study investigated effects of a 16-week progressive resistance training program (RTP) with elastic bands at two different intensities on systemic redox state, DNA damage, and physical function in healthy older women. Methods: Participants were randomly assigned to the high-intensity group (HIGH; n = 39), moderate-intensity group (MOD; n = 31), or control group (CG; n = 23). The exercise groups performed an RTP twice a week with three to four sets of 6 (HIGH) or 15 (MOD) repetitions of six overall body exercises at a perceived exertion rate of 8-9 on the OMNI-Resistance Exercise Scale for use with elastic bands. Thiol redox state was determined by reduced glutathione (GSH), oxidized glu…
Effectiveness of a kindergarten-based intervention to increase vegetable intake and reduce food neophobia amongst 1-year-old children: a cluster rand…
2021
Background: Children’s first years of life are crucial to their future health. Studies show that a varied diet with a high intake of vegetables is positive in several domains of health. The present low vegetable intake amongst children is, therefore, a concern. Food neophobia is a common barrier to vegetable intake in children. As most Norwegian children attend kindergarten from an early age, kindergartens could contribute to the prevention of food neophobia and the promotion of vegetable intake. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a cluster randomised trial amongst 1-year-old children in kindergarten to reduce food neophobia and promote healthy eating. Methods: Kin…
Distance Learning with Hands-on Exercises : Physical Device vs. Simulator
2022
This Research to Practice Full Paper presents a comparison between a physical device and a simulator in a distance learning context. Programming embedded devices is very commonly taught using embedded hardware. One of the most used solutions is the Arduino microcontroller platform, which allows small embedded applications to be built and commanded in a programming language. However, there are some challenges in using physical devices for educational purposes. These challenges are particularly acute in distance learning or when the course needs to be scalable to a varying number of students. To address these challenges, we explored the potential of a simulator as a replacement for a physical…
Internationalization of family-controlled SMEs from the process, network and socioemotional wealth perspectives
2016
Perheyritysten kansainvälistyminen on saanut vähän huomiota kansainvälisen liiketoiminnan tutkimusalalla. Tämä laadullinen tapaustutkimus tarttuu tähän tutkimusaukkoon ja lähestyy teemaa jopa perheyritysten kansainvälistymistutkimuksessa itsessään suhteellisen vähälle huomiolle jääneiden näkökulmien kautta: prosessi, verkosto ja sosioemotionaalinen vauraus (socioemotional wealth, SEW). Tämä tutkimus tarjoaa vastauksia siihen, kuinka perheiden kontrolloimat pk-yritykset rakentavat kansainvälisiä verkostoja, minkälaisia ulkomaiset verkostosuhteet ovat ja missä määrin SEW selittää yritysten kansainvälistymistä. Jotta tutkimustavoitteilla olisi heijastuspintaa, tutkimusta varten tehtiin kattava…
Effects of progressive aquatic resistance training on symptoms and quality of life in women with knee osteoarthritis: A secondary analysis.
2020
Abstract Objective: To conduct a secondary analysis to study the effects, those 4 months of aquatic resistance training have on self‐assessed symptoms and quality of life in post‐menopausal women with mild knee osteoarthritis (OA), after the intervention and after a 12‐month follow‐up period. Methods: A total of 87 post‐menopausal volunteer women, aged 60‐68 years, with mild knee OA were recruited in a randomized, controlled, 4‐month aquatic training trial (RCT) and randomly assigned to an intervention (n = 43) and a control (n = 44) group. The intervention group participated in 48 supervised aquatic resistance training sessions over 4 months while the control group maintained their usual l…

Świętowanie na ulicy. Orszak Trzech Króli w zimowym pejzażu miasta
2017
Autorka zainteresowała się formami kolędniczymi, związanymi ze Świętem Trzech Króli (6 stycznia): tradycyjną grupą kolędniczą – Trzej królowie, nowszą – kolędnikami misyjnymi oraz organizowanym od 2009 r. na ulicach wielu miast w Polsce Orszakiem Trzech Króli, czyli oryginalną procesją uliczną. To hałaśliwe wydarzenie uliczne wpływa na odmienny charakter uczestniczenia w religijnym „misterium”: czytelny jest tu aspekt uteatralnienia ceremonii religijnej (przebrani aktorzy pierwszo- i drugoplanowi, rekwizytem powszechnym są papierowe korony królewskie, budowa scen, na których odbywają się koncerty amatorskich i profesjonalnych zespołów). Przemarsz ulicami miasta księży i osób wierzących, nau…
Effects of a Job Crafting Intervention Program on Work Engagement Among Japanese Employees: A Randomized Controlled Trial
2020
Objective The current randomized controlled trial investigated the effectiveness of a job crafting intervention program on work engagement as the primary outcome and job crafting as the secondary outcome among Japanese employees. Methods Participants who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 138) or a control group (n = 143). The job crafting intervention program provided only to the intervention group consisted of two 120-minute group sessions with e-mail or letter follow-up. Outcomes were assessed at baseline and at 3-month and 6-month follow-up in both groups. Results In the total sample, the job crafting intervention program showed a non-signifi…
