Il Centro storico. La solitudine del Monumento
No full textSi documenta sul progetto redatto insieme agli allievi della Scuola di Dottorato di Reggio Calabria, sul progetto per il centro storio di S. G. in Fiore. Il progetto per la valorizzazione dell'abbazia Florense fondata da Giocchino da Fiore è parte del programma. la struttura monumentale dell'abbazia non partecipa pacificamente al paesaggio della Sila: si pone come sua unità di misura. Al di là della qualità architettonica, il suo valore è da ricondurre in primo luogo al suo significato religioso e poi alla collocazione rispetto al paesaggio che la circonda

Comparing different tests to detect early manifestation of prospective memory decline in aging
No full textObjective: Prospective memory (PM) is the ability to remember to perform future intentions. Previous studies have demonstrated that, compared to a younger cohort, healthy older adults have impairments in PM. Considering the importance of early detection of age-related PM decline, the present study aims to compare the performance of healthy older adults using three well-known PM tests commonly used in clinical settings. Method: In the present study, we tested 70 older adults (65–95 years old) using the Cambridge Prospective Memory Test (CAMPROMPT), the Memory for Intentions Screening Test (MIST) and the Royal Prince Alfred Prospective Memory Test (RPA-ProMem). In order to compare performance across tests and the interaction between age and cues, we performed a linear mixed model with random intercept and random slopes. Moreover, additional mixed models with random intercept were run for analyzing the additional information provided by MIST and RPA-ProMem regarding delay responses, response modality effects and type of errors committed. Results: Our data showed a drop in PM performance as age increased detected by all three tests. Furthermore, CAMPROMPT was the most sensitive test to identify differences in PM for event-and time-based cues, at least for participants with 65–77 years old. When data were analyzed in term of delay responses, participants were more accurate for 2 min delay (MIST) and 30 in delay (RPA-ProMem). Participants were less accurate when response modality was “verbal” compared to “action” (MIST) and made more PM errors as age increased. Conclusions: Overall, the study provides important information regarding age-related PM decline and can help researchers as well as clinicians in deciding the preferred test to evaluate PM performance
