This paper analyses the recent process of state decentralisation in Italy from the perspectives of political science and constitutional law. It considers the conflicting pressures and partisan opportunism of the decentralising process, and how these have adversely affected the consistency and completeness of the new constitutional framework. The paper evaluates the major institutional reforms affecting state decentralisation, including the 2001 constitutional reform and the more recent legislation on fiscal federalism. It argues that while the legal framework for decentralisation remains unclear and contradictory in parts, the Constitutional Court has performed a key role in interpreting the provisions and giving life to the decentralised system, in which regional governments now perform a much more prominent role. This new system of more decentralised multi-level government must nevertheless contend with a political culture and party system that remains highly centralised, while the administrative apparatus has undergone no comparable shift to take account of state decentralisation, leading to the duplication of bureaucracy at all territorial levels and continuing conflicts over policy jurisdiction. Unlike in federal systems these conflicts cannot be resolved in Italy through mechanisms of “shared rule”, since formal inter-governmental coordination structure are weak and entirely consultative.

Since 1999, countries have voluntarily chosen to reform their higher education systems to join the European Higher Education Area. This paper compares Bologna Process implementation across four regions within the European Union. While there are 47 countries participating in the Bologna Process, this paper uses statistical analysis to consider 25 of the 28 EU Member States. The time period of analysis is 2000-2011, prior to Croatia’s accession to the EU on 1 July 2013. Across Europe there are inter-regional differences in how the Bologna Process has been implemented and in the political economy contexts that influence higher education reform for policy convergence. There are three explanatory variables in the political economy context: 1. competitive economic pressures and globalization 2. domestic politics at the national level 3. leadership from the supranational European Union that socially constructs regional norms Tertiary education attainment is the dependent variable of interest in this research. The objective of 40%, for 30-34 year olds, is Europe 2020 benchmark target. There are additional higher education reform criteria encompassed in the Bologna Process. These criteria concern Credit and Degree Structure, Quality Assurance, and Recognition of academic degrees among countries in the EHEA. This tertiary education attainment variable, which is of interest in this paper, does not capture the entire implementation process. Nevertheless, it is a measure of one important indicator of success in providing higher education access to populations within the context of democratic governance. This research finds that statistically GDP Per Capita is the most significant variable in relationship to tertiary education attainment across four regional areas in the European Union.

Objective: Adolescent depressive symptoms are associated with difficult family relationships. Family systems and interpersonal theories of depression suggest that this association could reflect a circular process in which symptoms and family functioning affect each other over time. Few longitudinal studies have tested this hypothesis, and the results of these studies have been equivocal. In this study, we examine reciprocal prospective associations in early adolescence between depressive symptoms and 2 important aspects of parent–child relationships: communication and conflict. Methods: Participants were 3862 students who annually filled out self-reports. Path analysis was used to examine prospective associations between depressive symptoms and perceived communication and conflict with parents from the age of 12 to 13 and 14 to 15 years. Independence of these associations was assessed by controlling for family context (parental separation and family socioeconomic status) and adolescent behaviour problems (delinquent behaviours and substance use). Sex differences were evaluated with multiple group analysis. Results: Reciprocal prospective associations were found between depressive symptoms and perceived conflict with parents, but not between depressive symptoms and communication with parents. Depressive symptoms were found to predict poorer communication with parents over time, but communication was not predictive of lower depressive symptoms in subsequent years. All paths were sex-invariant and independent from family context and behaviour problems. Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of considering the potential impact of adolescent symptomatology on parent–child relationships and suggests that reciprocity may characterize the association between depressive symptoms and negative aspects of parent–child relationships. The role of adolescent perceptions in the interplay between depressive symptoms and family relationships remains to be clarified.

Chromosome bi-orientation at the metaphase spindle is essential for precise segregation of the genetic material. The process is error-prone, and error-correction mechanisms exist to switch misaligned chromosomes to the correct, bi-oriented configuration. Here, we analyze several possible dynamical scenarios to explore how cells might achieve correct bi-orientation in an efficient and robust manner. We first illustrate that tension-mediated feedback between the sister kinetochores can give rise to a bistable switch, which allows robust distinction between a loose attachment with low tension and a strong attachment with high tension. However, this mechanism has difficulties in explaining how bi-orientation is initiated starting from unattached kinetochores. We propose four possible mechanisms to overcome this problem (exploiting molecular noise; allowing an efficient attachment of kinetochores already in the absence of tension; a trial-and-error oscillation; and a stochastic bistable switch), and assess their impact on the bi-orientation process. Based on our results and supported by experimental data, we put forward a trial-and-error oscillation and a stochastic bistable switch as two elegant mechanisms with the potential to promote bi-orientation both efficiently and robustly.

O autocuidado é indispensável à conservação da vida e resulta do crescimento diário da pessoa, na experiência como cuidador de si mesmo e de quem faz parte das suas relações. É a chave dos cuidados de saúde, sendo interpretado como uma orientação para a ação de enfermagem que, através das ações de autocuidado, podem implementar intervenções para a promoção da saúde e/ou prevenção da doença. Os objetivos do estudo direcionam-se para a importância na identificação do perfil de autocuidado dos idosos, ou seja, na determinação dos diferentes níveis de dependência no autocuidado dos idosos a residir em lar. Entendemos este conhecimento, (proveniente dos resultados do estudo) como um contributo relevante no sentido de melhorar o modo como o apoio e/ou a ajuda pode ser ajustada a cada indivíduo, uma vez que estas adaptações só são possíveis perante o diagnóstico real da dependência das pessoas. Metodologia: Este estudo inclui-se num paradigma de investigação quantitativa, do tipo não experimental, transversal, descritivo e correlacional. A população em estudo são os idosos residentes no lar Residência Rainha D. Leonor em Viseu. Utilizou-se uma amostra não probabilística acidental, em função do peso relativo dos idosos desta instituição constituída por 136 idosos. O instrumento de colheita de dados inclui a escala de dependência no autocuidado. Resultados: Os idosos são maioritariamente mulheres, viúvas, com baixa instrução literária e com média de idade de 86 anos. Verificamos que as patologias predominantes são do foro cardíaco (70,6%), osteoarticular (62,5%) e neurológico (55,1%). Considerando o nível global de dependência no autocuidado, verificamos que 46,4% da amostra é independente, 36,0% é dependente em grau elevado e 17,6% dependente em grau parcial, ou seja, 53,6% apresenta algum grau de dependência no autocuidado. Conclusão: Os resultados deste estudo permitem a aquisição de conhecimento e desenvolvimento de competências que são de extrema importância na prática de cuidados de enfermagem de reabilitação, pois as necessidades de saúde desta população sofrem contínuas modificações ao longo do processo de envelhecimento, exigindo práticas atualizadas, no sentido de abranger a promoção dos processos de preservação e de autonomia. Palavras-Chave: Autocuidado, Idoso, Institucionalização.

A leitura e a escrita mantêm entre si relações de grande proximidade sendo praticamente indissociáveis. Na verdade, nas últimas décadas, a investigação tem vindo a demonstrar que a aprendizagem da leitura e da escrita se processa praticamente em simultâneo e que, ao longo do processo de ensino-aprendizagem, essa relação entre os dois domínios se vai intensificando. Assim, sabemos hoje, que quanto mais se lê melhor se escreve, da mesma forma que quanto mais se escreve maior é a capacidade de compreender os textos lidos. Ao professor de Português compete a tarefa de desenvolver nos seus alunos, em qualquer nível de ensino, competências várias em todos os domínios contemplados nos documentos legais e programáticos em vigor. No entanto, e dada a natureza deste Relatório Final de Prática de Ensino Supervisionada, não podemos deixar de frisar que, relativamente aos domínios da leitura e da escrita, o professor de língua materna deve promover e estimular nos seus alunos o desenvolvimento gradual e articulado de competências relacionadas com a compreensão leitora e a expressão escrita, nas suas várias dimensões – ortográfica, textual e criativa. Encarando a escrita criativa como uma modalidade fundamental para a criança, não só por alargar a sua capacidade imaginativa, mas também por permitir adquirir, consolidar e utilizar com progressiva autonomia e criatividade todos os aspetos relacionados com a estrutura da língua, perspetivamo-la como fundamental nas aulas de Português, pelas potencialidades de que a mesma se reveste e não apenas como ferramenta utilizada para desbloquear nos alunos o receio da página em branco. Daí que tenhamos concebido e implementado, numa sala de 3º ano de escolaridade, num dos agrupamentos de escolas de Portalegre, um projeto de investigação-ação centrado no domínio da escrita criativa, mas alicerçado em práticas de leitura compreensiva de textos literários, práticas essas que antecederam os momentos de escrita. Desse projeto em particular, e das atividades implementadas ao longo da Prática de Ensino Supervisionada nas diversas disciplinas em geral, no 1º e no 2º CEB, dar-se-á conta, de forma reflexiva, neste Relatório Final.

Theoretical framework: The experience of the terminal phase and death by patients and caregivers is influenced by multiple factors. This study aimed at understanding this experience from the primary caregiver’s perspective. Objectives: To describe the factors that, from the primary caregiver’s perspective, influenced the experience of disease in the terminal phase and mourning for the death of a close person; To understand the influence of nurses’ conduct on the experience of disease in the terminal phase and mourning for the death of a close person from the primary caregiver’s perspective. Methodology: Qualitative descriptive exploratory study. Results: The following factors were valued: To Assume the Caregiver’s Role, To allow for the end-of-life/terminal phase to take place at home/near the family and Process of Care. Regarding the nurses’ conduct, the knowledge, communication and relationship established by nurses were also valued. Conclusion: In addition to expanding the implementation of specific palliative care teams, the acquisition and development of basic skills in this area by most health care professionals is essential.

We apply a key construct from the entrepreneurship field, entrepreneurial orientation (EO), in the context of long-lived family firms. Our qualitative in-depth case studies show that a permanently high level of the five EO dimensions is not a necessary condition for long-term success, as traditional entrepreneurship and EO literature implicitly suggest. Rather, we claim that the level of EO is dynamically adapted over time and that the original EO scales (autonomy, innovativeness, risk taking, proactiveness, and competitive aggressiveness) do not sufficiently capture the full extent of entrepreneurial behaviors in long-lived family firms. Based on these considerations we suggest extending the existing EO scales to provide a more fine-grained depiction of firm-level corporate entrepreneurship in long-lived family firms.

Mutual support is an interactional communication process. Taking an interactional approach to support requires group participants be viewed not only as targets and recipients but also as sources and providers of various types of support. An analysis was performed on the interactions of a group listserv and model of online interactional support. The aim was to explore the communication process children follow. The analysis revealed self-disclosure was used in the support group in three distinct ways. Its function for the support recipient is to initiate a transactional relationship with another member for the purpose of attracting social support through the open expression of concerns and frustrations. It is then used by the support provider to demonstrate that coping is possible for the recipient through the reciprocal self-disclosure of similar concerns and situations with which the member has successfully dealt. The third use of self-disclosure was to share reciprocal social companionship relationships.
