Molina, M.E., Cornejo, C., Marsico, G., Valsiner,, J. (2022). Conclusions: Intimacy as unveiling issues in dichotomous thinking. In M.E., Molina, Cornejo C., Marsico, G., Valsiner, J. (Eds). Intimancy. The shared part of me. pp. 215-222, InfoAgePublishing.
No full textA potentially problematic issue for cultural psychology is that acknowledging intimacy seems to bound the Self to areas disjointed from the social sphere. In a globalized world, we witness a developmental process where social life becomes sectioned, where people are involved in an identity search by foregrounding certain social roles. With this backdrop in mind, people redefine and rebuild their intimacy spaces and the ways they roam from these to the public and collective realm

No full textThe concept of intimacy puts forth important challenges to contemporary cultural psychology. Intimacy refers to a felt experience of interiority that although is intuitively comprehensible, does not have rigorously defined limits. Intimacy can refer to a content, an object, a person, ownership, or even a part of one’s own body.

No full textThis concluding chapter highlights the main ideas about the border in Self-
Other relations introduced in this book. Drawing on the preceding chapters,
we argue that the complexity of the bordering process requires multilevel
analysis, specifically underlining micro-level processes. With a focus on the
psychological dimension of the construction of borders, this chapter also
explores the larger social processes (e.g., migration, mobility, segregation, and
integration) addressed in several chapters of this book, as well as their links
with the issue of space, identity processes, and affectivity
Chaudhary, N., Hviid, P., Marsico, G., Villadsen J. (2017). Rhythms of resistance and existence: An Introduction. In N. Chaudhary, P. Hviid, G. Marsico, J. Villadsen (Eds.), Resistance in Everyday Life: Constructing Cultural Experiences. (pp.1-9). Geneve, Switzerland: Springer;
No full textThis volume is a collection of essays and analysis around the phenomenon of
resistance as it is manifested in everyday events within the life-course. The chapters are
revised and enriched versions of seminar presentations made by the authors in 20141. The
seminar brought together cultural psychologists from eight different nationalities and diverse
projects, focussed on conceptualising and discussing experiences of resistance, whether it
was in the area of family life, childhood, school, public spaces, art, theatre, social distance,
politics or biography. Each scholar highlighted those aspects of his or her area of study where
the phenomenon of resistance was in evidence. As a result, there was a wide range of topics
and phenomena that were covered, all with the cross-cutting theme of resistance. Hot debates
and intense discussions during the seminar were common. What was seen as resistance from
one cultural standpoint (for instance, gender relations within marriage in India) was not
necessarily understood as such from a different cultural standpoint (European tradition about
gender relations). A rich dialogue emerged, which the authors have attempted to capture
while revisiting their own presentations, thereby unearthing some of the cross-cutting
processes in the development and expression of resistance in everyday settings
Marsico, G., (2017). Resistance serves the trasformation: An Introduction to Section 3. In N. Chaudhary, P. Hviid, G. Marsico, J. Villadsen (Eds.), Resistance in Everyday Life: Constructing Cultural Experiences. (pp. 225-232). Geneve, Switzerland: Springer;
No full textResistance has been frequently treated in psychology in its negative meaning of opposing, clashing, confronting, blocking. I claim, instead, that resistance serves life transformation and life regulation. In this paper I will show the essential role played by resistance, providing examples from theoretical biology and physics. Then I will introduce the third section of this volume. It is composed of six chapters written by Indian and European authors who showed the transformational and regulating role of resistance in everyday life. I will outline some of the issues raised by the authors in the light of my proposal of resistance as a developing force which serves transformation and regulation of our existence
Cornejo, C., Marsico, G. & Valsiner, J. (Eds.). (2018). I Activate You to Affect Me”: Affectivating as a Cultural Psychological Phenomenon. In C. Cornejo, G. Marsico, & J. Valsiner (Eds.). “I Activate You To Affect Me”. Annals of Cultural Psychology: Exploring the Frontiers of Mind and Society, Volume 2, Charlotte, N.C. USA: Information Age Publishing;
No full textThe second volume of Annals of Cultural Psychology is dedicated to the affective nature of human social relationships with the environment. The chapters here included explore the historical, theoretical and practical dimensions of the concept of affectivating originally in-troduced by one of us (Valsiner, 1999), as a potential tool of inquiry into the affective-sensitive dimension of psychological life within a cultural-psychological framework.
Why this new term? And why dedicate a whole volume of the Annals to contributions that, in one way or another—use the term for some theoretical purposes? The slightly awkward notion of affectivating brings the affective dimension of the human experience into the centre of the scope of cultural Psychologies, which have usually focused on the social side of human experiencing. Insofar as different versions of Cultural Psychology have fostered a view of the mind as socially constituted, aspects of the mind traditionally understood as individual have been minimized or even neglected. This has distinctively been the case of affects in social conceptions of mind

No full textEffect of diets containing w3 fatty acids on productive performances and meat quality of"Murgese" foals
No full textEight male Murgese foals, weaned at the age of 6 months and subdivided into 2 groups of 4 animals, homogeneus for age and live weight, were used to investigate the effects of diets containing 0)3 fatty acids on some quantitative and qualitative traits of horse meat. The foals, from weaning to slaughtering, were fed ad libitum hay from meadow pasture and concentrate at 30 and 70% respectively, until the dry matter intake was 2.3-3% per 100 kg live weight. In particular, the first group (controI) received concentrate without 0)3 fatty acids; the second group received a supplementary feed containing fish and flax plus ozi wl at 1.5%. The research demonstrated that enriching diets with 0)3 polyunsatured fatty acids the quantity of ashes and phospholipids of the meat improved, the free cholesterol concentrations were reduced, without modif)ring the productive performances of the foals. The supplementary feed containing plus oil wl significantiy modifìed the acidic profile of intramuscolar fat, increasing EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and reducing the ratio 0)6/0)3. Moreover, advantageous ratios S/P (saturated/polyunsatured) and PCLlPCE (plasma cholesterol lowering/plasma cholesterol elevating) were observed, and the thrombogenicity index was like the one suggested by the Human Society of Nutrition. The use of polyunsatured fatty acids in horse feeding favours the production of quality meat with good (excellent) dietar)' characteristics
