Associacionisme al procés de jubilació del professorat de la UV: perfil psico-social
2012
La comprensió dels efectes de la transició a la jubilació per a la salut i el benestar psicològic s'ha convertit en un camp d'investigació cada cop més reivindicat (Neuman, 2008), tant per la conjuntura polític-econòmica actual, com per les noves característiques i necessitats de la població major (Pérez, 2006). Donades les característiques particulars i la pràctica inexistència de literatura, l'estudi del col'lectiu dels professors universitaris cobra especial abast en aquesta situació. Així doncs, el present treball té com a objectiu avaluar la satisfacció amb la jubilació i el benestar, de forma extensa i detallada, d'una mostra de 22 professors universitaris jubilats de la Universitat d…

Socio-Demographic Vulnerability: The Condition of Italian Young People
2009
For a kind of inertia effect, today the Italian welfare state protects the older too much and, on the contrary, it does not counter sufficiently the new risks associated with other phases of life. Not much seems to be implemented in favour of Italian young people who, as a matter of fact, seem to suffer a lot from the present changes: young people remain longer in the parental home and postpone setting up their own independent life to a most advanced age. In order to understand the situation of vulnerability increasingly widespread among young people, it seemed more and more necessary an in-depth analysis of the reasons and the subjective status of the discomfort that affects young people b…
Décroître pour rebondir : le déclassement des villes moyennes, une opportunité pour repenser la ville
2019
International audience; La politique contemporaine d’aménagement du territoire en France comme dans de nombreux pays favorise l’affirmation des grandes entités urbaines. Sous l’impulsion de la mondialisation de l’économie, la concentration des moyens humains et matériels dans un nombre réduit de très grandes agglomérations a largement contribué à reléguer les villes moyennes dans l’ombre des métropoles. Les centres de ces villes moyennes sont eux-mêmes concurrencés par leur périphérie à dominante rurale qui offre des opportunités de logement individuel plus avantageuses pour les ménages. Appréhendée de manière conjoncturelle, cette situation conduit à qualifier nombre de villes moyennes com…
Airlines Customer Segmentation in the Hyper-Competition Era
2019
As the airline industry reaches its maturity, so do the passengers who are looking for more sophistication in terms of the products and services they buy or expect. Offering a large array of services to customers with different expectations who await customization along their journey has become more challenging for airlines all over the world. Coping with changes in a volatile environment means that airlines need to redefine their customer segmentation, evolving from a social-demographic to a more complicated behavioral approach which encompasses the whole traveling experience and the way airlines deliver at every touching point.
