Iniuria Migrandi: Criminalization of Immigrants and the Basic Principles of the Criminal Law
2013
In questo articolo mi propongo di effettuare una valutazione normativa, dal punto di vista di una teoria del diritto penale orientata secondo principi, delle norme che incriminano l'immigrazione irregolare. L'interrogativo generale sul quale mi soffermerò è questo: che modo di usare il diritto penale è implicato nella emanazione di simili norme? La mia tesi è, in sintesi, che si tratta di un vero e proprio abuso del diritto penale. In almeno due sensi: primo, nel senso che, criminalizzando l'immigrazione irregolare, il diritto penale bandisce (categorie di) persone, e non atti/omissioni, facendo qualcosa che un diritto penale rispettoso di alcuni principi liberali fondamentali non dovrebbe …
Ingroup Identification Increases Differentiation in Response to Egalitarian Ingroup Norm under Distinctiveness Threat
2017
Previous findings suggest that high identifiers show their group loyalty by deviating from group norms that do not allow the group to react in an adaptive manner towards a threatening outgroup (i.e., when the ingroup norm is egalitarian). In this study, using natural groups (French and North Africans), we aimed at extending our understanding of such loyalty conflict by examining the relationship between ingroup identification and intergroup differentiation (stereotyping and prejudice) as a function of distinctiveness threat and ingroup norms. Results showed a positive relationship between identification and prejudice both in the discriminatory norm condition when intergroup similarity was l…
Impact of serotonin 2C receptor null mutation on physiology and behavior associated with nigrostriatal dopamine pathway function.
2009
The impact of serotonergic neurotransmission on brain dopaminergic pathways has substantial relevance to many neuropsychiatric disorders. A particularly prominent role has been ascribed to the inhibitory effects of serotonin 2C receptor (5-HT2CR) activation on physiology and behavior mediated by the mesolimbic dopaminergic pathway, particularly in the terminal region of the nucleus accumbens. The influence of this receptor subtype on functions mediated by the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway is less clear. Here we report that a null mutation eliminating expression of 5-HT2CRs produces marked alterations in the activity and functional output of this pathway. 5-HT2CR mutant mice displayed i…
Gender and Age Group Differences in Stereotypes about Mental Health Care Providers
2013
Mental health care providers play a significant role in the prevention of mental health problems and promotion of well-being. The aim of the study was to explore gender and age group differences in stereotypes about helping professionals in the mental health care field. The data were derived from 338 Latvian-speaking adults aged 18 to 87. They rated stereotypic characteristics of five typical helping professionals (a family doctor, a psychologist, a psychiatrist, a clergyman, and an astrologer) on a seven-point Likert-type scale. The stereotype content model was used to measure warmth and competence stereotypes (Fiske, Xu, Cuddy, & Glick, 1999). Gender differences show that women rate a typ…
Multidimensional health modeling: Association between socioeconomic and psychosocial factors and health in Latvia
2009
This research aims at estimating association between socioeconomic and psychosocial factors on the one hand and health in Latvia on the other hand. While information on association between socioeconomic determinants of population health in Latvia is scarce, effect of psychosocial resources on individual health in this country hasn’t been estimated before. We find empirical support for the association between different psychosocial factors and physical health in Latvia. This paper proposes new approach for modelling self-assessed health. We find that the concept of health is too complicated to measure effects of health determinants using a one-dimensional econometric model. We apply two-dime…

Monenlaisia tunteita lihavan liikkeen äärellä
2022
Feministinen tutkimus on kritisoinut objektiivisen tieteenteon ihannetta jo vuosikymmenet. Silti tutkija voi hämmentyä huomatessaan suhtautuvansa omaan tutkimuskohteeseensa ristiriitaisesti. Moninaiset tunteet on kuitenkin hyvä sanallistaa, jotta niistä voidaan käydä keskustelua ja jopa kääntää ne vahvuudeksi. nonPeerReviewed
Estereotipos asociados al cuerpo humano: análisis de aplicaciones móviles usadas en la educación físico-deportiva
2022
Institutions and educators are massively and uncritically integrating digital curricular materials in their teaching praxis. This article aims to uncover whether health and fitness APP images convey or legitimize stereotypes linked to bodies, focusing on gender, race, somatotype and physical activity practice. We also analyse whether these apps are adequate for the recommended age or whether they are designed by physical education professionals. For that purpose, we designed a descriptive, comparative study based on content analysis on a sample of 373 images from 128 apps selected through a PRISMA review and a pilot test. Our results report that bodies reproduce a series of stereotypes: of …
Predstavleniâ rossijskih studentov o finnah i Finlândii : na osnove oprosa
2015
Tässä pro gradu-tutkielmassa tarkastellaan kirjallisen kyselyn pohjalta, minkälaisia mielikuvia venäläisillä opiskelijoilla on suomalaisista ja Suomesta. Pyrin löytämään mahdollisia yhteisiä käsityksiä, kartoittamaan niiden alkuperää ja selvittämään, ovatko mielikuvat stereotyyppisiä. Lisäksi tutkin, ovatko opiskelijat kiinnostuneita Suomesta, ja missä määrin heidän mielikuvansa ovat positiivisia tai negatiivisia. Aihe on ajankohtainen, sillä Suomi ja Venäjä ovat rajamaita, jotka paitsi jakavat yhteisen historian ovat myös tänä päivänä kasvavissa määrin vuorovaikutuksessa toistensa kanssa. Kasvanut turismi, maahanmuutto ja kaupankäynti maiden välillä tekee mielenkiintoiseksi tutkia, minkäla…
