I fattori associati all’uso di alcol e alla cyber-vittimizzazione in adolescenza. Evidenze dal protocollo Health Behaviour in School Aged Children 2014.
La presente tesi approfondisce alcune delle sfide che gli adolescenti, nella società contemporanea, devono affrontare per perseguire uno stato ottimale di salute biopsicosociale. In particolare, questo lavoro si concentra su due tematiche: (a) il consumo di alcol negli adolescenti e (b) la vittimizzazione online nella forma di esperienze di cyberbullismo (subite). L'adolescenza è, infatti, un'età del ciclo di vita caratterizzata da un alto rischio di mettere in atto comportamenti dannosi per la salute (ad esempio, il consumo di alcolici). Inoltre, la presenza pervasiva di Internet nella vita quotidiana degli adolescenti aumenta il rischio subire cyber-bullismo. La tesi comprende tre studi che sono stati condotti sui dati del protocollo self-report Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children (2014), raccolti sul territorio della Lombardia. Il protocollo HBSC consente di studiare l'adolescenza in tre fasi cruciali: 11 anni, età corrispondente alla pubertà e all’inizio della scuola secondaria di primo grado; 13 anni, età corrispondente – in Italia – alla scelta della carriera scolastica futura (la scuola secondaria di secondo grado); 15 anni, età corrispondente alla scuola secondaria di secondo grado e alla piena adolescenza. Il primo capitolo prende in esame l'interazione tra genere, controllo parentale e cene familiari per contrastare il consumo mensile di alcol degli adolescenti. Il secondo capitolo indaga le differenze e le comunalità tra la cyber-vittimizzazione, la cyber-vittimizzazione visiva e la cyber-vittimizzazione scritta. Il terzo capitolo analizza i fattori associati alla cyber-vittimizzazione femminile, con un focus specifico sulle variabili legate al peso (ad esempio, peso effettivo in chilogrammi, peso percepito, indice di massa corporea). I tre studi rivelano indizi chiave per la prevenzione del consumo di alcol e del bullismo, sottolineando il ruolo cruciale della sorveglianza HBSC nel monitorare i pattern comportamentali di rischio e benessere per le nuove generazioni.The present dissertation addresses some of the challenges that adolescents have to face to pursuit health in contemporary society. Specifically, this work focuses on: (a) adolescents alcohol consumption and (b) cyberbullying victimization. Adolescence is, in fact, an age characterized by a high risk for engaging harmful behaviours. Plus, the pervasive presence of the Internet environment in adolescents’ everyday life enhances the risk of being cyberbullied. The dissertation includes three studies that have been conducted on Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children (HBSC) 2014 data from Lombardy. HBSC protocol consents to study adolescence in three crucial phases (i.e., age 11, corresponding with puberty and the beginning of middle school; age 13 corresponding – in Italy – to the choice of the high school career; age 15, corresponding with high school years). The first chapter questions the interaction of gender, parental control, and family dinners in counteracting adolescents’ monthly alcohol consumption. The second chapter investigates the differences and the commonalities among general, visual, and written cyberbullying victimization. The third chapter analyzes the associated factors of girls’ cyberbullying victimization, with a specific focus on weight-related variables (e.g., actual weight in kilograms, perceived weight, body-mass index). The three studies reveal key-clues for prevention, emphasizing the crucial role of HBSC surveillance in monitoring the emerging patterns of risk and wellbeing for the new generations
Cyberbullismo, cybervittimizzazione e differenze di genere in adolescenza
Obiettivo della rassegna è esaminare, attraverso un’analisi sistematica degli ultimi dieci anni (2007-2017), la produzione scientifica sulla relazione tra genere e cyberbullismo in adolescenza. Sono presi in considerazione 22 articoli estratti tramite procedura PRISMA da originari 197 pro- dotti individuati su banche dati scientifiche (Scopus, PsycArticles, PubMed), selezionati secondo le parole chiave oggetto di interesse. Sono analizzati le popolazioni coinvolte negli studi, i disegni e i metodi di ricerca utilizzati, nonché discussi rigore e omogeneità degli stessi. La rassegna si conclude con discussione e riflessioni conclusive in relazione allo stato dell’arte di questo ambito della ricerca scientifica. The review’s aim is to examine, through a systematic analysis of last ten years (2007- 2017), the scientific production regarding gender and cyberbullying in adolescence. 22 scientific publications have been extracted, using key-words filter and PRISMA procedure, from 197 total papers available on scientific data-banks (Scopus, PsycArticles, PubMed). Studies’ populations, designs, methods, homogeneity and scientific rigor have been examined. Conclusively, the review discusses and reflects around the state of art of the present research field
La resilienza nel circuito penale minorile in tempi di pandemia: un’esperienza di studio e formazione basata sul modello sferico della coscienza su un gruppo di educatori
This paper presents the results of a study investigating both predictors of resilience on a group of educators of the juvenile justice system and effects of group training on this construct. Results showed that (a) self-efficacy in managing positive and negative emotions and positive attitude are predictors of resilience and (b) the comparison of pre-post values revealed an impact of training affecting the balance between self-efficacy in managing positive and negative emotions and positive attitude. Ultimately, this study seems to indicate the need to promote targeted training experiences on emotion management for supporting the educators in the juvenile justice system.
Il lavoro proposto illustra i risultati di una ricerca che ha indagato i predittori della resilienza negli educatori del circuito penale minorile e gli effetti della formazione. I risultati hanno rilevato che (a) l’autoefficacia nella gestione delle emozioni positive e negative e l’attitudine positiva sono predittori della resilienza e che (b) il confronto delle medie pre-post formazione rileva un impatto di quest’ultima sul bilanciamento tra autoefficacia nella gestione delle emozioni positive, delle emozioni negative e sull’attitudine positiva. In definitiva, la ricerca sembra indicare la necessità di promuovere percorsi formativi sulla gestione delle emozioni a supporto dell’educatore nel circuito penale minorile
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
