Creative Flows: Constructions of Meaning Between Binary Oppositions, Paradoxes and Common Sense
Creators: name: D'Alessandro, Simone
Publisher: name: Italian Sociological Review
Year: 2023

description: Is it possible to construct a stable discursive field of the term ‘creativity’? Does the construction of its meaning follow a conventional route, as with other words, or does it constitute an exception? Do creativity professionals construct meanings close to or far from common sense? What are the relationships between the term creativity and the terms freedom, constraint, routine, and innovation Starting from the above questions, this empirical research examines the construction of meaning of the term ‘creativity’ in an attempt to capture aspects “that people tend to share and take for granted, generating both recurrent patterns and variations” (Spillman, 2022, p. 24). By analysing interviews with 27 professionals working in creative and/or innovative fields, the research identifies stereotypes, rituals, binary oppositions, and paradoxical expressions present in the discursive fields of the interviewees. While scholars of the subject classify the term ‘creativity’ by means of stable and consistent definitions, professionals actually working in the creative fields come up with ambiguous, contradictory, and paradoxical definitions. With a few exceptions, the definitions recorded during the interviews are similar to common sense phrases found in the collective imagination. Creative practitioners use the same repertoires and discursive fields as everyone else and augment the rhetorical narrative of the term. Paradoxes, oscillations between polarities and ambiguous definitions given by professionals working in the creative fields show “the emerging properties that relate symbols, phenomena, contexts and people” (Donati, 2022, p. 317).

Pandemic in the Instagram Era. The Visual Analysis of Italian Mayors’ Communication

Publisher: name: Italian Sociological Review
Year: 2023

description: Over the last decade, political communication has been affected by a process of disintermediation thanks to the appropriation of social media not only by the networked citizens, but also by politicians, who are increasingly interested in exploring new forms of engagement and participation in the Res Publica (see among others Parisi and Rega, 2010). The opportunities hidden within these new forms of direct communication appeared more clearly during the pandemic crisis when citizens primarily were looking for correct information, practical instructions, and a kind of control of collective anxiety and fear (Jain et al., 2021). The paper aims at presenting the main results of a wider research project conducted by the University of Padua, focused on the role of visual communication in social media platforms of Italian mayors. The study was based on the visual analysis of 54 mayors’ profiles on Instagram between the 21st of April and the 21st of June. Moreover, we carried out 25 in-depth interviews with a subsample of local administrators. Among other goals, we identified the use (pragmatic vs. ideological one) of communicative threads about the pandemic.

In the Name of Women. Comparing Gynecologists’ Discourses About Abortion in Italy
Creators: name: Ghigi, Rossella

Publisher: name: Italian Sociological Review
Year: 2023

description: For at least fifty years, voluntary termination of pregnancy has represented a terrain of struggles among different theoretical and political positions, often claimed ‘in the name of women’ (Pitch, 1992; Koralewska & Zielińska, 2022). The rate of objecting doctors and recent changes in the regulation of the pharmacological abortion have rekindled the debate on the actual access to the service in Italy. And, once again, the different parties refer to ‘women's interests and well-being’, sometimes explicitly in the name of a feminist position, sometimes in the name of human rights, sometimes on scientific evidence. Drawing on a field research based on in-depth interviews conducted with gynecologists and other specialists, this article explores the discourses around the legitimacy, the best techniques, and the most appropriate conditions of abortion to understand how these health professionals set their own ‘threshold of legitimacy’. As we shall see, the need to reduce their own dissonance and value conflicts lead them to set a hierarchy of deservingness of abortion that put women’s behavior into a moral ranking. Again, very different positions are rhetorically taken in the name of women, whose actual agency is discussed at the light of our research results.

Previous work has demonstrated that  note-taking is an effective tool for information processing. Furthermore, digital tools  could increase the utility of notes by allowing students to better organize information,  retrieve information, and integrate external information sources. Results of the survey  indicate that while students recognize digital notes as possessing positive attributes,  adoption of digital note-taking is hampered by immature software and hardware tools.

The need for a living environment that responds to the needs of users with their different abilities, outside of standardizations, is increasingly felt as autonomy, independence and well-being are the result of real usability and adaptability of the spaces. The project to improve the inclusivity of living space and to promote the rehabilitation of fragile users need to be characterized as an interdisciplinary process in which the integration of specialized contributions leads to adaptive customization of space solutions and technological that evolve with the changing needs, functional capacities and abilities of individuals.

Health Care Workers’ Attitudes Towards Social Robots. Some Empirical Evidence

name: Bertuzzi, Elena

Publisher: name: Italian Sociological Review
Year: 2023

description: The application of social robots is spreading to many different areas of daily life. They are being used for tasks such as health monitoring, caregiving assistance and educational activities. The use of robots has sociological implications due to the fact that some nations are facing challenges associated with ageing populations and a shortage of workers in certain sectors, including healthcare. Social robots are being considered as one way of addressing these challenges. Understanding the extent to which workers accept the use of social robots is important for social research. The aim of this paper was to identify the sociodemographic and work-related factors that influence health care workers’ attitudes towards social robots. A non-representative sample of 302 health care workers was analysed. The General Attitudes Towards Robots Scale (GAToRS) was used to measure attitudes towards social robots. The results show that although the topic of robotics has become familiar to health care workers and they generally express positive views about them, most have not had much personal experience of their use. Additionally, health care workers expressed a high level of interest in the scientific discoveries and technological developments of social robots, and this could contribute to developing acceptance among these professionals regarding their use.

Despite the fact that operations promoted by the Government haven’t been effective so far, the European Union encourages deep retrofit interventions towards the standard 'Nearly Zero Energy Buildings'. This approach necessarily implies a systemic knowledge of the buildings, which can be achieved with different levels of detail, through preliminary energy audits, audits, and more detailed and multi-criteria Post-Occupancy Evaluations.

Improved Semidefinite Programming Upper Bound on Distillable Entanglement

Year: 2016

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A new additive and semidefinite programming (SDP) computable entanglement measure is introduced to upper bound the amount of distillable entanglement in bipartite quantum states by operations completely preserving the positivity of partial transpose (PPT). This quantity is always smaller than or equal to the logarithmic negativity, the previously best known SDP bound on distillable entanglement, and the inequality is strict in general. Furthermore, a succinct SDP characterization of the one-copy PPT deterministic distillable entanglement for any given state is also obtained, which provides a simple but useful lower bound on the PPT distillable entanglement. Remarkably, there is a genuinely mixed state of which both bounds coincide with the distillable entanglement while being strictly less than the logarithmic negativity.

Fraction space revisited

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Number Theory (math.NT)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Rationals are known to form interesting and computationally rich structures, such as Farey sequences and infinite trees. Little attention is being paid to more general, systematic exposition of the basic properties of fractions as a set. Some concepts are being introduced without motivation, some proofs are unnecessarily artificial, and almost invariably both seem to be understood as related to specific structures rather than to the set of fractions in general. Surprisingly, there are essential propositions whose very statement seem to be missing in the number theory literature. This article aims at improving on the said state of affairs by proposing a general and properly ordered exposition of concepts and statements about them. In addition, historical remarks are made on generating the set of all fractions -- a much older discovery than it is widely believed.
Kosambi-Cartan-Chern (KCC) theory for higher order dynamical systems

description: The Kosambi-Cartan-Chern (KCC) theory represents a powerful mathematical method for the investigation of the properties of dynamical systems. The KCC theory introduces a geometric description of the time evolution of a dynamical system, with the solution curves of the dynamical system described by methods inspired by the theory of geodesics in a Finsler spaces. The evolution of a dynamical system is geometrized by introducing a non-linear connection, which allows the construction of the KCC covariant derivative, and of the deviation curvature tensor. In the KCC theory the properties of any dynamical system are described in terms of five geometrical invariants, with the second one giving the Jacobi stability of the system. Usually, the KCC theory is formulated by reducing the dynamical evolution equations to a set of second order differential equations. In the present paper we introduce and develop the KCC approach for dynamical systems described by systems of arbitrary $n$-dimensional first order differential equations. We investigate in detail the properties of the $n$-dimensional autonomous dynamical systems, as well as the relationship between the linear stability and the Jacobi stability. As a main result we find that only even-dimensional dynamical systems can exhibit both Jacobi stability and instability behaviors, while odd-dimensional dynamical systems are always Jacobi unstable, no matter their Lyapunov stability. As applications of the developed formalism we consider the geometrization and the study of the Jacobi stability of the complex dynamical networks, and of the $Λ$-Cold Dark Matter cosmological models, respectively.

description: Traditionally, the idea of cultural heritage has been limited to physical objects received from the past, whose artistic merit was already sanctioned by some higher authority and whose preservation was restricted to institutions such as museums and archives. The expansion of scholarly interests as well as technological developments have more recently led to the consideration of other forms of human expression, which include more volatile or intangible elements such as oral traditions, music, and films. This presentation draws on the experiences gathered within project INDIGO to discuss if the case of contemporary graffiti can help us reconsider the traditional boundaries of cultural heritage. It will focus on the 'time' and 'selection' factors in the definition of cultural heritage: Does the passing of time play a key role in determining what is cultural heritage and what is not? To what extent is cultural heritage the result of a process of selection and valorisation on the part of scholars or other key actors? Is cultural heritage not just something we inherit from the past, but first and foremost our legacy for the future, built also on the basis of our own present?

description: Population ageing and the increase in neurodegenerative diseases that lead to dementia, together with growing urbanisation, cause us to reflect on an important aspect of life in the city for elderly people: the ability to move around independently without getting lost and to find their way back home. By reviewing the existing literature on the theme of wayfinding and analysing some data on residual capacities in the early stages of Alzheimer’s Disease, the concept of ‘natural perceptual wayfinding’ is introduced, aimed, on the one hand, at improving urban accessibility of people with dementia and, on the other, at reconsidering a topic of vital importance, even if normally neglected in the dwelling design.

description: We present a new analysis of Kerr-Newman-deSitter black holes in terms of thermodynamic quantities that are defined in the observable portion of the universe; between the black hole and cosmological horizons. In particular, we replace the mass $m$ with a new 'area product' parameter $X$. The physical region of parameter space is found analytically and thermodynamic quantities are given by simple algebraic functions of these parameters. We find that different geometrical properties of the black holes are usefully distinguished by the sum of the black hole and cosmological entropies. The physical parameter space breaks into a region in which the total entropy, together with $Λ$, $a$ and $q$ uniquely specifies the black hole, and a region in which there is a two-fold degeneracy. In this latter region, there are isentropic pairs of black holes, having the same $Λ$, $a$, and $q$, but different $X$. The thermodynamic volumes and masses differ in such that there are high and low density branches. The partner spacetimes are related by a simple inversion of $X$, which has a fixed point at the state of maximal total entropy. We compute the compressibility at fixed total entropy and find that it diverges at the maximal entropy point. Hence a picture emerges of high and low density phases merging at this critical point.

description: The issue of the school has been a priority in the political agenda of the successive Italian governments during the last decade. This priority is also due to the size of the school real estate, consisting of approximately 41,000 buildings. The recent reactivation of the Observatory of School Buildings and of the Registry is an opportunity to improve maintenance planning. The paper deals with the role of the Observatory in monitoring the conservation status of school real estate, and the objectives to be pursued through the activation of the School Building Registry. Indeed, the integration with UNI standards in the field of maintenance can produce positive results in terms of quality and quantity of data available for the Information System, which represents an essential tool to streamline time and costs of inspections and interventions.

description: In a precarious general framework, in which the quality of the Italian healthcare system is getting worse and worse, there are examples of excellence, such as the Maria Letizia Verga Center for the Study and Treatment of child leukemia. This is a new pavilion for the Pediatric Hematology of S. Gerardo Hospital in Monza, fourth center in the world to bring together in a single organization the medical care and the research/training activities. The building architectural design aimed at coordinating the efficiency of medical procedures together with the criteria of humanization of the spaces and the new partnership model, revolutionary within the Italian National Health Service, represent two of the aspects that contribute this Center to be a distinctive case.

Writing Center and Library Collaboration: A Telephone Survey of Academic Libraries
Creators: name: Todorinova, Lilyana
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2010
Subjects: Writing centers--Academic libraries
Academic libraries
Information literacy
Bibliographic instruction--Academic libraries

description: Writing and researching are highly interrelated processes and there is much overlap  between the goals and responsibilities of writing center staff and librarians. There is  little evidence, however, that partnership between writing centers and libraries has been  instituted as standard practice in academic institutions. The purpose of this study,  therefore, is to explore the current state of the relationship between the writing center  and the library. A telephone survey was administered to librarians in a sample of 268  academic institutions. The results indicated that only 26.7% of libraries actively  collaborate which their university's writing center. A strong majority of the noncollaborating  institutions (74%) expressed a willingness to do so in the future, while  85.7% of the collaborating institutions thought that the program was effective in  increasing the writing and researching skills of students. In the libraries where  collaboration was either not possible or not desirable, the main reasons, which were  interpreted from the librarians' responses, included lack of resources, a disconnect  between theory and practice, and cultural issues.

description: Having defined the topic and its related management effects in the healthcare environment, this paper reports considerations of specific design processes, including evidence-based design, Integrated Healthcare Strategies, participatory practices and post occupancy evaluation. Landscape of Italian examples follows before a case study of three Californian healing gardens dedicated to cancer patients, linked to a survey of this category of users’ needs in such spaces. Conclusions report the reflection of practical implications deriving from studying North American examples, underlining the opportunity for audit and certification of therapeutic gardens, as well as the chance to export them outside health infrastructures for social needs.

description: University hospitals are characterized by the coexistence of care, research and training facilities and by the mission to achieve excellent results in the healthcare services provided. These activities, which are respectively subordinate to the Hospitals and University Institutions of Medicine, reach their maximum level of efficiency when programmed and managed with the principles of maximum integration and synergy in organizational, functional and, not least, physical and spatial terms. Based on this knowledge, a group of researchers from the Interuniversity Centre TESIS developed a PRIN research project – this article summarizes its contents and results – aimed at defining the design approach principles on the basis of which to work out innovative solutions to be tested in the creation of Cities of Health, IRCCSs (Scientific Institutes for Research, Hospitalization and Health Care) and Hospitals of excellence.

description: The quality of the Italian National Health Scheme (S.S.N.) is measured according to the efficiency of community services and their capacity of complying with the new emerging needs of citizens. Among these, hospices can be considered necessary facilities of reference in the case of “palliative care”. Many hospices are reserved for adults in Italy, whereas only one facility (located in Padua) complies with the specific and diverse needs of children. The opportunity has presently arisen to build a second paediatric hospice in Genoa, thanks to collaboration between the Gaslini Institute and the Maruzza Lefebvre D’Ovidio Onlus Foundation; this entails a plan for the renovation of part of an existing pavilion belonging to the Gaslini Institute, which is the result of research and procedures that have fostered the participation of experts possessing articulated skills in the said field.

description: The international scientific literature supports the great interest to the evidence-based design, focused on the relationship between the spatial arrangement of hospital environment and the potential support to the healing process. According to this approach, the paper deals with field surveys in hospital departments of oncology; the research is aimed at evaluating the environmental perceived quality by the end users. The analysis carried out through questionnaires and interviews was useful to develop tools for the assessment of the relationship among environmental factors and psycho-emotional reactions and to validate the patients and staff’s needs.
