Neurophysiological characterization of normal hearing and unilateral hearing loss children: a comparison among EEG-based indices for information processing and decision-making levels.
The identification of measurable indices of cerebral functions to be
applied in clinical settings is ever more felt as necessary for a more thorough
and objective evaluation of patients cognitive performance. In the present
paper, the electroencephalographic-based indices of mental workload (WL =
frontal θ/parietal α) and of mental engagement (ME = β/(α+θ)), calculated
along the brain midline, have been employed to characterize the eventual
specific patterns of cerebral activations during a speech in noise perception task
Lo shareholder engagement negli studi di corporate governance. Un'analisi empirica mediante la Qualitative Comparative Analysis
Il lavoro evidenzia alcuni aspetti evolutivi negli studi di corporate governance tanto in riferimento agli aspetti di shareholder engagement, quanto nell'approccio di analisi adottato. La tesi proposta è che il voto, espresso sulla base della norma say on pay, vada oltre il singolo voto sulla politica di remunerazione e sia un modo attraverso il quale gli azionisti si esprimano in merito alla gestione dell'attività dell'impresa.
Prosocial virtual reality, empathy, and EEG measures: A pilot study aimed at monitoring emotional processes in intergroup helping behaviors
During a non-invasive procedure, participants both helped and helped by a confederate with features that create social distance (membership in an ethnic outgroup or another social group). For this purpose, we created a set of virtual scenarios in which the confederate’s ethnicity (white vs. black) and appearance (business man vs. beggar, with casual dress as a control condition) were crossed.
Towards a communication model for University education
Learning as a student-centred process is a consolidated concept in contemporary literature. To this concept is associated the scientific debate about the redefinition of the role of university professors in terms of enlargement of their functions and skills to plan and manage the training process. The consequent changes are not only connected to the curricular level but involve the communicative sphere of the professor-student relationship, which is increasingly central to promote the effectiveness of the educational project.
Creation of Social Media Content and the Business Dialogic Process
Facebook is regularly used by businesses to present themselves to users and communicate with them. The literature has already highlighted how most users act passivily by simply reading and viewing a company's official homepage. Few followers adopt a more active role, such as commenting and interacting with each other and with the company, and fewer still are reactive and proactive, becoming co-creators of content.
Pratiche partecipative e relazioni solidali nel sostegno a distanza: il «posto della comunicazione»
Il saggio si inserisce nell’ambito di una ricerca sulla valutazione delle pratiche partecipative e delle attività di engagement dei sostenitori del servizio di sostegno a distanza (Sad) nell’Associazione Famiglie nuove (Afn) onlus. Dalle evidenze empiriche raccolte emerge una dimensione privata di adesione al Sad, che si articola nella diffusione di pratiche simboliche, inedite
