La normativa emergenziale in materia di obbligazioni e di contratti
2020
Il saggio esamina le principali disposizioni in materia di obbligazioni e di contratti introdotte dalla normativa emergenziale al fine di fronteggiare la pandemia di Covid-19 e tenta di ricondurle a sistema. Più nel particolare, molte delle norme esaminate, a dispetto della loro natura eccezionale, non fanno che applicare istituti del diritto generale delle obbligazioni e dei contratti, come l’impossibilità definitiva o temporanea, la risoluzione per impossibilità, la revisione volontaria del contratto etc. Di particolare interesse - anche per l’impatto applicativo - si rivelano le questioni relative alla gestione dei rapporti contrattuali di durata e ai riflessi delle misure restrittive de…
Intellectual Capital Reporting in the Italian Nonprofit Sector. An Image-Building or an Accountability Tool?
2014
Abstract The purpose of this article is to analyze intellectual capital (IC) measurement, management, and reporting practices at organizational level, with the aim to address a relevant research question: are IC reports used as accountability or as image-building tools? The article presents a single in-depth case study of an Italian nonprofit organization (NPO) which has been measuring and reporting its IC for several years. The research project was conducted using an interpretative approach, by analyzing organizational IC reports in the light of a framework, derived from corporate social responsibility (CSR) and IC literature, able to provide researchers with useful insights to interpret t…
Private health insurance in the universal public healthcare system: The role of healthcare provision in Finland
2023
Voluntary private health insurance (VPHI) has gained popularity in universal public healthcare systems. We studied how the local provision of healthcare services correlated with VPHI take-up in Finland. Nationwide register data from a Finnish insurance company was aggregated to the local level and augmented with high-quality data on public and private primary care providers’ geographical closeness and fees. We found that the sociodemographic characteristics explained the VPHI take-up more than public or private healthcare provision. The VPHI take-up was negatively associated with distance to the nearest private clinic, while the associations with distance to public health stations were stat…

Kokemuksia vapaaehtoisesta lapsettomuudesta ja sterilisaatiosta -kirjoitusaineisto 2017
2022
Aineisto koostuu vapaaehtoista lapsettomuutta ja sterilisaatiota käsittelevistä kirjoituksista. Kirjoituspyyntöön saivat vastata kaikki itsensä kohderyhmään kuuluvaksi määrittelevät henkilöt. Aineisto on kerätty alun perin pro gradu -tutkielmaan vuonna 2017. Kirjoituskutsun avulla pyrittiin selvittämään mm. sitä, miten päätös vapaaehtoisesta lapsettomuudesta on syntynyt ja millaisia ajatuksia sterilisaatio vastaajissa herättää. Tarkoitus oli saada tietoa myös siitä, miksi sterilisaatioon hakeudutaan ja millaisia vaikutuksia toimenpiteellä on ollut vapaaehtoisesti lapsettomien ihmisten elämään. Haluttiin myös tietää, millaisena tilanteen näkevät ne, jotka toivoisivat toimenpidettä, mutta eiv…
视觉工作记忆中数量和精度的权衡关系是否受个体自发控制
2021
There is a negative correlation between the quality and quantity of memory representations in visual working memory, and this negative correlation is seen as a trade-off between quantity and quality. However, it is unclear whether this trade-off is entirely stimulus-driven or can be controlled voluntarily by individuals according to task demands, which has led to a debate on the mechanism of memory resource allocation. This paper systematically reviews the development of research on whether the trade-off between quantity and quality is subject to individual voluntary control, and point out this voluntary control is influenced by the exposure duration and working memory capacity, and some su…
