Dalla naturalizzazione delle scienze umane alla naturalità dell’ovvio. Le ragioni sociali per le quali la mente non è il cervello.
No full textNell’articolo si sostiene che l’attuale diffusione dell’approccio neuroscienti- fico nell’ambito delle scienze sociali e culturali rappresenti la versione contemporanea di una tendenza alla naturalizzazione della mente e dei processi di conoscenza che si è riproposta in modo ricorrente anche in passato. Viene sostenuta la tesi che naturaliz- zare la realtà sociale sia una necessità della mente umana la quale, specie nel contesto ordinario della vita quotidiana, ha bisogno di poter ritenere «naturalmente evidenti» i contesti e le regole nelle quali opera. Per gli esseri umani, quindi, la naturalità viene as- sicurata non dal solo dato biologico, bensì dalla condivisione degli assunti impliciti che sono a fondamento del mondo sociale.The authors argue that the diffusion of the neuroscientific approach within the social and cultural sciences represents the contemporary version of a recurrent ten- dency to naturalize the mind and the processes of knowledge. Conversely, the article argue that the tendency to naturalize the social world is a basic function of human mind, which, mainly when dealing with ordinary daily life, needs to consider the con- texts and the rules in which it works as naturally self-evident. For human beings, such natural evidence is ensured not by the biological facts, but by the shared assumptions which stand at the very foundation of the social world
Children in residential care: How to evaluate behavioural change
No full textThis article reports the results of an observational longitudinal study carried out on four children who lived in a residential community because of their multiproblem families. The aim of this study was to apply the evaluative methodology proposed by Le Poultier (1990) in order to assess I) the processes of change in the children over time and II) the relations between educational practices and observed changes. The findings confirm I) the existence of processes of change in the children; II) the presence of correlations between the displayed behaviour of the children and adult practices. In addition, what emerges is the existence of a dimension (transgression versus co-operation and autonomy) underlying the educational project designed by the adults. The data refer to observations of the behaviour of each staff member on a weekly basis for a six-month period and, at the same time, to the self-observations of each adult regarding the behaviour adopted towards each child. The data were analysed using: I) correlational coefficients to check the relation between the children's behaviour and the social work; II) Correspondence Analysis to permit a simultaneous representation of the developmental changes observed in the four children with respect to social work
Everyday Life in Social Psychology
No full textIn the field of psychology, the topic of everyday life as a specific subject of inquiry has been afforded little attention. Indeed, everyday life has recently been analyzed mainly in psychological studies that examine people's ways of behaving and thinking when they act in situations termed as mundane and ordinary. These studies are mainly carried out in two fields of social psychology which we refer to in general terms as Social Cognition and Social Representation Theory. The aim of this paper is to examine how both these fields treat some of the features commonly attributed to everyday life. In particular, the features of familiarization, continuity and stability over time and automaticity are discussed in order to try to figure out meeting points between the two fields mentioned

Perché i pesci non studiano l’acqua? Una ricerca sulla vita quotidiana in adolescenza
No full texthis paper deals with the everyday life of a sample of adolescents (14-16 years old) living in Emilia-Romagna. Everyday life is a vague and problematic notion little inquired in psychology. This research has been carried out in two phases. The first describes a week of the lives of 93 adolescents using qualitative methods: an adapted version of the Time Sampling Diary (Brandstätter, 1977) and three focus groups with 11 subjects of the same sample. Places, activities, relationships and emotions are described. The second phase, carried out with quantitative methods, analyses the everyday family life of 487 adolescents. Our hypothesis is that "everyday" is a structure of stability (scaffolding) organised by routines, rules and rituals: when this structure supports communication and relations between family members, it functions as protective factor of the self esteem of adolescents. The hypothesis has been confirmed using a LISREL analysis
Challenges and worries in life stories of women with bleeding disorders
No full textWomen with bleeding disorders have rarely been studied. Recently, thanks to the advancement in treatment options and the recognition that women can also suffer from haemophilia, new research lines have been developed. This study investigated the experiences of women affected by bleeding disorders (patients, healthy or symptomatic carriers), specifically focus-sing on disease diagnosis and management in daily life, relational issues, and reproductive options. Age, family history, educational qualification and religiosity were also considered. Thirty-two women were interviewed, and their narratives were analysed with lexical-metric and qualitative content analysis. The results showed some key themes, which refer to cognitive, affective and behavioural responses to the disease. They included both sex-neutral and female-specific contents, offering a new reading of the phenomenon. Although the awareness of female bleeding disorders has increased in recent years, sick women stressed late diagnosis paths and symptom underestimations, while female carriers discussed psychosexual issues and motherhood choices, with related implications on physical and psychological well-being, and relational life. Alongside commonalities, some differences emerged depending on women’s socio-cultural situations. Overall, they suggested the importance of developing early patient-centred psycho-educational paths in order to tailor interventions to specific women’s needs, promote disease and self-acceptance, and enhance effective management
