Pathological substance use is amongst the most persistent and costly ills of global modern society. In spite of advances made in therapeutic possibilities over the past decades, long-term treatment responses remain relatively discouraging, with relapse rates higher than for most other psychiatric disorders. The chronic disease course of substance use disorder (SUD) has led to debate whether...

The present thesis investigated how mental representations of rotation develop between 2 and 5.5 years of age. In Study 1, toddlers were presented with a rotating shape that disappeared briefly behind an occluder and reappeared either in its original or mirror-reversed form. Eye-tracking results showed that during visible rotation, toddlers between 2 and 3 years of age increasingly combined...

We present a preliminary validation of a newly built questionnaire aimed at evaluating people’s openness towards the notion of non-binary gender. To explore the validity of our questionnaire, we ran a principal component analysis to evaluate the existence of three overarching dimensions (Gender Categories, Gender Fluidity, and Gender Definitions) that were at the very foundation of our...

Affrontare una malattia grave comporta sempre, e in particolar modo per un minore, uno stress fisico e psichico di grande rilievo. Se da un lato un adulto può possedere risorse di adattamento che gli permettono di far fronte alla malattia, per un bambino la patologia può interferire con la crescita sociale ed emotiva. Per questa ragione, i clinici e la famiglia hanno anche il compito di...

I divorzi e le separazioni sono diventati sempre più frequenti negli ultimi decenni e per questo costituiscono aspetti di grande rilievo anche rispetto ai possibili effetti sulle cure mediche. La conflittualità riguarda non solo le coppie di adulti, ma ha spesso ripercussioni anche sui figli che sono coinvolti, a livello pratico ed emotivo, nella separazione della coppia. Se da un lato il...

Alcune tecniche, come quelle illusionistiche, sono descritte in modo crescente nella letteratura scientifica quali strumenti utilizzabili negli ambiti di cura e riabilitazione. In questo lavoro sono presentate ...

Attentional refreshing allows the maintenance of information in working memory and has received growing interest in recent years. However, it is still ill-defined and several proposals have been put forward to account for its functioning. Among them, some proposals suggest that refreshing relies on the retrieval of knowledge from semantic long-term memory. To examine such a proposal, the present...

Le traumatisme de l’abus sexuel est un événement adverse qui cause des répercussions négatives sur la vie physique, psychologique et spirituelle de la victime. Nous remarquons que les recherches, dans les pays développés, sont plus avancées sur ce sujet que dans les pays du Moyen-Orient. En effet, au Liban, nous n’avons pas assez de recherches sur le thème de l’abus sexuel parce...

In this study, infants’ visual processing of depth-inducing stimuli was tested using a new method suitable for experimental settings. Stereograms of the Lang-Stereopad® were presented in a timed preferential-looking paradigm to determine infants’ preference for a stereogram as compared to a stimulus not inducing an impression of depth. A total of 80 infants were tested at 7 months of...
