Ambient Assisted Living
This book documents the state of the art in the field of ambient assisted living (AAL), highlighting technologies and services which aim to improve health and quality of life, while promoting active aging. The coverage is wide ranging, with topical sections devoted to human monitoring, smart living services, biomedical and robotic solutions, including different case studies and real-world examples where assistive technologies are successfully applied. The book comprises a selection of the best, refereed papers presented at the 10th Italian Forum on Ambient Assisted Living (ForItAAL), held in Ancona, Italy, in June 2019, which represents the annual event that involves the Ambient Assisted Living Italian Association and brought together researchers, technology teams, policy makers, and stake-holders. Readers will find that the expert contributions offer clear insights into the ways in which the most recent exciting advances may be expected to assist in addressing the needs of the elderly and those with chronic conditions.
The olivo-cerebellar system
During the last decades, investigations on the olivo-cerebellar system have attained a high level of sophistication, which led to redefinitions of several structural and functional properties of neurons, synapses, connections and circuits. Research has expanded and deepened in so many directions and so many theories and models have been proposed that an ensemble review of the matter is now needed. Yet, hot topics remain open and scientific discussion is very lively at several fronts. One major question, here as well as in other major brain circuits, is how single neurons and synaptic properties emerge at the network level and contribute to behavioural regulation via neuronal plasticity. Othe...
Intra- and Inter-individual Variability of Executive Functions: Determinant and Modulating Factors in Healthy and Pathological Conditions
This eBook attempts to unify the contributions of different research groups investigating the sources of variability in executive functions, discussing the most recent developments and integrating the knowledge accumulated across different fields. It consists of a compilation of empirical, theoretical and review articles studying executive functions in both clinical and healthy human populations. Some of the key influences on intra- and inter-variability in executive functions discussed include the developmental trajectory of executive functions, healthy and pathological aging in executive functions, as well as the influence of environmental factors and intelligence on executive functions.
GLOCAL SERVICE-LEARNING APRENDIZAGEM SOLIDÁRIA GLOCAL
É possível identificar, descodificar, se existirem, características específicas e perspectivas críticas de uma abordagem GloCal para projetos de Aprendizagem – Solidária Internacional? O volume apresenta-se como ponto de convergência de uma multiplicidade de contributos de um conjunto muito variado de autoras e autores, por origem geográfica, abordagem cultural e metodológica, área de investigação e experiência, que participaram na 1ª semana de imersão total na Aprendizagem – Solidária GloCal. Um Evento científico promovido e implementado pelo Mestrado em Educação, Cultura e Territórios Semiáridos, PPGESA do Departamento de Ciências Humanas DCH III, UNEB, em Juazeiro-BA, Brasil, por meio do programa de pesquisa e intercâmbio Intereurislândia. Um coro, uma fusão harmónica capaz de restaurar aquele poliedro multifacetado e ao mesmo tempo unitário que é o objeto comum de exploração, a Aprendizagem-Solidária, abrindo um novo caminho de reflexão, investigação, ação e formação numa abordagem Glo-Cal, como uma chave para a leitura e a intervenção transformadora no que diz respeito aos desafios que a globalização coloca à educação hoje.
Twenty Years After the Iowa Gambling Task: Rationality, Emotion, and Decision-Making
The world is full of uncertainty. In unpredictable circumstances, can emotions facilitate advantageous decision-making? A neuroscience team, led by Antonio Damasio, explored this question using the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT). To the present day, the findings of numerous IGT-related investigations strongly influence clinical and interdisciplinary research, for example, in neuroeconomics and neuromarketing. This special issue examines IGT-based research progress over the past 20 years through literature reviews, clinical examinations, model construction, theoretical integration, and brain imaging technology. Both supportive and opposing viewpoints are provided to frame correlations between rationality, emotion, decision-making, and IGT. Potential future directions for IGT studies are discussed

ANNO 2021 FEMMINE E LGBTI PRIMA PARTE
Antonio Giangrande, orgoglioso di essere diverso. Si nasce senza volerlo. Si muore senza volerlo. Si vive una vita di prese per il culo. Noi siamo quello che altri hanno voluto che diventassimo. Facciamo in modo che diventiamo quello che noi avremmo (rafforzativo di saremmo) voluto diventare. Rappresentare con verità storica, anche scomoda ai potenti di turno, la realtà contemporanea, rapportandola al passato e proiettandola al futuro. Per non reiterare vecchi errori. Perché la massa dimentica o non conosce. Denuncio i difetti e caldeggio i pregi italici. Perché non abbiamo orgoglio e dignità per migliorarci e perché non sappiamo apprezzare, tutelare e promuovere quello che abbiamo ereditato dai nostri avi. Insomma, siamo bravi a farci del male e qualcuno deve pur essere diverso!
