Il comportamento elettorale: indagine esplorativa.
This exploratory investigation is aimed to probe what factors were involved in the voting process for the specific election appointment on 4 March 2018.
Two samples were interviewed, using the same questionnaire for two different groups. One, was a sample of adults aged 19 to 97, through direct interviews, the other was a sample of university students aged 19 to 28, through an online questionnaire.
In the elections of 4 March, 19.3% of the sample and 8.1% of students did not vote. The main motivations were political for the first sample ("I do not believe in keeping the promises of politicians" 28.5%, "I do not recognize myself in any party/movement" 22.6%, "I do not care about politics" 22.1%) and of a political or personal nature for students ("I do not recognize myself in any party/movement" 25.2%, "I had personal commitments made previously" 16.8%, "I do not believe in the promises of politicians" 16.0%).
Among those who went to vote, even if they have not done so regularly in the last 5 years, the main motivation was the recognition that voting is a right but also a duty for every citizen (78.5% of the sample and 90.3% of students). Hopes for change were also very high (45.2% and 34.6% respectively). in choosing to go to vote, poor weight had sympathy for a particular candidate (6.5% and 2.0%).
There was a high percentage of well informed voters for both groups (89.2% of the first sample and 96.0% of students). The main sources of information were national and local newspapers (54.7% and 57.3%) and political broadcasts (53.6% and 45.3%). The first sample's youth and students used the internet and social media to acquire and exchange information. In fact a small percentage of people say that they have not changed their mind after listening to or reading the information (17.0% and 8.9%), some say they have strengthened their opinions (27.4% and 19.2%) or have drawn ideas for reflection (37.2% and 56.3%)

Data regarding the reasons of smoking beginning where submitted to factorial analysis. The main results regarding the generations are: there are more adult than young smokers but young people begins to smoke earlier (at about 16 years). The first factor that justified the beginning is related with personal difficulties. For young people the second factor is related with the need of membership to peer group and the third is related with adult emulation and boredom. The 33,0% never tried to stop. There are no generational differences between young and adult when cannot smoke: both become nervous and eat. The greatest difference is related with diffusion of smoking custom. The other behaviours are related with the status of smoker, regardless the age of people.
Regarding the gender, the differences are referable to the attempt of given up smoking (males has tried more time than females) and to reactions when cannot smoke, when males become more nervous than females and females became more insecure
