Italian validation of the subjective vitality scale. Relationships with extraversion, emotional stability, and basic psychological need satisfaction
This study provided validity evidence for the Italian version of the Subjective Vitality Scale (SVS), also examining the associations with two personality traits (extraversion and emotional stability) and the mediation role of basic psychological need satisfaction. Study 1 involved 422 participants to assess the psychometric properties of the Italian trait version of the SVS. Study 2 (N = 248) included measures of personality characteristics and …
Digital health and Tourette Syndrome
Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by motor and vocal tics that can significantly impair quality of life. Traditionally, diagnosis and treatment rely on clinical assessments as well as pharmacological and behavioural interventions. In recent years, the advent of digital technologies and machine learning methodologies has opened new possibilities to improve diagnosis, monitoring, and personalized care for patients …
Patters of creative thinking in preadolescents with dyslexia
Although research on creativity and dyslexia produced contrasting results, accumulated evidence suggests that the characteristics associated with dyslexia may underlie the creative advantage often reported in the literature. Rather than a general creative advantage in individuals with dyslexia, empirical findings pointed at strengths in specific sub-processes of creative thinking. While previous studies have attempted to identify the cognitive me…
Exploring Meta-Reasoning Propositional Confidence in Conspiratorial Beliefs and Socio-Cognitive Polarization
Conspiracy theories have pervaded human thought across time and cultures, often emerging during crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic, where they influenced public behaviors and attitudes, notably in vaccine hesitancy. This research explores the metacognitive foundations of conspiracy beliefs, particularly focusing on how individuals monitor and assess their problem-solving processes. We propose that conspiracy beliefs are linked to high propositi…
Classification of response inhibition measures
Inhibition is a fundamental component of self-regulation which can be defined as the ability to suppress an automatic response to execute an appropriate one. Given its impact on adaptation, wellbeing, and life satisfaction, the construct of inhibition has been extensively investigated in literature from manifold perspectives. Theoretical models of inhibition have highlighted its multi-componential nature, giving reason of why a multitude of exper…
Music-related emotions
The relationship between music and emotions has often been investigated. It has been shown that there are differences between the emotions aroused in listeners by music and the emotional content or quality of music, as perceived by listeners, but the effect on listeners of ascribing emotions to the composer of the music has not yet been studied. Since emotional responses to music are modulated by personal attitudes to managing emotion, the relati…
Creative Minds in a Polarized World
In today's digital milieu, characterized by pervasive media exposure, the intricate interplay between individual differences and cognitive processes has garnered significant scholarly interest. A notable facet of this interrelation pertains to the nexus between cognitive flexibility and individuals' engagement with online information. Recognized as essential for creative cognition, cognitive flexibility encompasses various facets of human reasoni…
Does social rigidity predict cognitive rigidity? Profiles of socio-cognitive polarization
Executive functioning and divergent thinking predict creative problem-solving in young adults and elderlies
The role of executive functioning in creative thinking is under debate. Some authors suggested that increased inhibitory control, a component of executive functioning, is detrimental to creative solutions, whereas others argued that executive functions are central to creative problem-solving, thus questioning Guilford’s classical distinction between divergent and convergent thinking. Executive functions decline with age. In this study, we investi…
Remedial interventions for developmental dyslexia
The possibility of using rhythmic auditory interventions for addressing dyslexia-related difficulties has been empirically explored by several investigations, with encouraging results. Such findings inspired the design of a novel rhythm-based intervention, Rhythmic Reading Training (RRT), specifically designed for students with developmental dyslexia (DD). To measure RRT efficacy, a clinical trial with an active-controlled design was carried out.…
Not Getting Vaccinated? It Is a Matter of Problem-Solving Abilities and Socio-Cognitive Polarization
The anti-COVID-19 vaccination campaign in the United States provided a significant contribution to the control of the virus spread. Despite the recommendations by public health institutions, vaccine skepticism and hesitancy contributed to low vaccine uptake, thus possibly disrupting the management of preventable diseases associated with the COVID-19 infection. The process that led individuals to accept COVID-19 vaccines required the ability to ga…
Risk-Perception Change Associated with Covid-19 Vaccine’s Side Effects
The COVID-19 vaccine appears to be a crucial requirement to fight the pandemic. However, a part of the population possesses negative attitudes towards the vaccine. The spread of conspiracy theories and contradictory information about the pandemic have altered the population's perception of risk. The risk-perception of the vaccine's side effects may be affected by individual differences. The complex relationship between risk-perception and individ…
Going Viral
In times of uncertainty, people often seek out information to help alleviate fear, possibly leaving them vulnerable to false information. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we attended to a viral spread of incorrect and misleading information that compromised collective actions and public health measures to contain the spread of the disease. We investigated the influence of fear of COVID-19 on social and cognitive factors including believing in fake n…
Dyslexia Telerehabilitation during the Covid-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 outbreak necessitated a reorganization of the rehabilitation practices for Learning Disorders (LDs). During the lockdown phase, telerehabilitation offered the possibility to continue training interventions while enabling social distancing. Given such an advantage of telerehabilitation methods for LDs, clinical research is still needed to test the effectiveness of diverse teletraining approaches by comparing their outcomes with those …
Cognitive Processes Underlying Reading Improvement during a Rhythm-Based Intervention. A Small-Scale Investigation of Italian Children with Dyslexia
Music and rhythm-based training programs to improve reading are a novel approach to treatment of developmental dyslexia and have attracted the attention of trainers and researchers. Experimental studies demonstrating poor basic auditory processing abilities in individuals with dyslexia suggest they should be effective. On this basis, the efficacy of a novel rhythm-based intervention, Rhythmic Reading Training (RRT), was recently investigated and …
