    The evaluation of gender income inequality by means of the Gini index decomposition

    Get PDF
    This paper proposes to measure and to evaluate gender gaps and gender inequalities by means of the decomposition of an inequality measure. A three-terms decomposition of the Gini index is applied, thus allowing to take into account also the role of overlapping between female and male subpopulations. We develop an unified framework for the evaluation of gender gap, linking traditional measures, based on subgroups income means, to the approach related to inequality decomposition, and showing how overlapping component represents a key issue in gender gap analysis. An analysis of the income distribution of the Italian households shows how gender gaps represent a major source of inequality, without particular improvements during the last 20 years

    PERCEIVE. WP1. Framework for comparative analysis of the perception of Cohesion Policy and identification with the European Union at citizen level in different European countries. Task1.2. Focus group with Cohesion Policy practitioners

    No full text
    The data set consists of transcripts of interviews to practitioners, beneficiaries and targets of the Cohesion Policy projects in the selected case-study regions of seven different countries (Austria, Italy, Poland, Romania, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom). Interviewees are asked to provide their views and perceptions on the multilevel governance system, on the communication activities of the Operational Programmes and on the effectiveness of Cohesion Policy. The issues related to the governance schemes in the selected case-study regions were addressed in focus groups with practitioners of Cohesion Policy programmes. Between February and March 2017, eight focus groups were organised by partners of the PERCEIVE consortium with the only exception of WU Vienna who organised in-depth interviews. UNIBO, leader of the Work Package, provided a semi-structured questionnaire that was designed to explore the multilevel governance system, the communication strategies and the policy effectiveness as perceived by the practitioners. The aims of the questionnaire, in regards to governance, were to collect qualitative information about the strengths and weaknesses of the governance model adopted by each of the case-study MAs. In order to grasp the multitude and the complexity of the issues involved, invitations were sent to both internal and external members of the MAs. This assembled a panel of directors and managers from the MAs, relevant stakeholders of the CP programmes and beneficiaries. The questionnaire was designed in such a way that all participants could be able to answer to all the questions throughout the entire focus group, regardless of their affiliations, to ensure that the focus group could generate a fruitful discussion between the participants. The Austrian case is an exception because, in conformity with the confidentiality agreement based on the Austrian Data Protection Act, the transcripts of the interviews must not be made publically available, reproduced, or distributed in any way

    Presentazione

    Get PDF
    Gli studi presentati in questo volume, realizzati nel campo della storiografia linguistica, collocano al centro dell’attenzione la grammatica delle seconde o prime lingue, o alcune delle sue parti, come la fonetica o i materiali di supporto, ad esempio, i dialoghi. Il periodo di riferimento va dalla prima parte del Sedicesimo secolo fino alla prima metà del Ventesimo e riguarda diverse lingue in diversi periodi, dall’alto tedesco al tedesco e neerlandese, allo spagnolo, inglese, italiano, cinese, francese e quebecois. Tenendo presente i contesti storici, ovviamente molto diversi, le grammatiche o i materiali di riferimento sono stati proposti, nella loro epoca, con una chiara finalità didattica, condizionati da input religiosi, nazionalistici o di espansione in nuovi territori o ambiti istituzionali

    ITALY ELT ARCHIVE. A historical archive of materials for English language teaching in Italy

    Get PDF
    While great strides have been made in the past few decades in historical research into the teaching of several European languages to nonnative learners, historical-oriented research into English language teaching (ELT) is still in its infancy. Historical investigations have often tackled the more general issue of ELT approaches and theories. Fewer studies are, however, yet available about actual ELT practices in specific contexts. As a first step in the investigation of Italian ELT practices, a project has been launched at the University of Milan aiming at the creation of an archive (as both a physical repository and an online database) of ELT materials published in Italy in the 20th century. This article introduces the proposed archive (ITALY ELT ARCHIVE) against the background of the history of foreign language learning and teaching in Italy in the last hundred years and previous attempts at creating historical archives of language learning/teaching materials

    The Flow Grid for LINK Project. Guide for the Observer & Sample Scoring Sheet

    Get PDF
    In the framework of the LINK Project, case-studies of Class Based Activities have been carried out with the aim of identifying the state of Flow (Csikszentmihalyi,1990) of the participants. Starting from the Flow Grid introduced in Addessi, Ferrari, & Carugati (2015) and Addessi, Ferrari, Carlotti, Pachet (2006), some adaptations and a new scoring sheet have been implemented for the video-analysis. This document introduces the Guide for the Observer and the Sample Scoring Sheet, which was included as Appendix 1 in the European Final Report of Impact Study 2 of the LINK project, 2017
