This concise, accessible guide explores the different models behind the concept of giftedness, examining the criteria for evaluating and identifying gifted children, in order to provide a deeper understanding of the lives of children and young people with high cognitive potential. It offers practical advice to parents and teachers, highlighting common queries and misconceptions and presenting evidence-based suggestions for management methods. Key topics covered include the difference between being gifted and talented, how to identify a gifted child, neurological differences between gifted children and their peers, dealing with perfectionism, and the best ways to parent and teach a gifted child. Avoiding prescriptive rules, the authors emphasise the importance of knowing and understanding the individual child whilst utilising research around giftedness to promote the best possible outcomes. Illustrated with case studies of student and teacher perspectives, the book offers an inclusive perspective and practical strategies, whereby the development of individual potential is viewed not only as a way to promote the psychological well-being of the individual but also as an opportunity and benefit for society. Understanding Giftedness is essential reading for parents and caregivers, as well as practitioners in clinical and educational psychology, counselling, mental health, nursing, child welfare, public healthcare and those in education who want to help young people develop their talents and achieve their full potential.

This book focuses on the use of food gases in the food industry, their different applications and their role in food processing, packaging and transportation. Since these gases come into contact with food, they must comply with strict of labeling, purity and hygiene standards in order to ensure food safety. The book discusses various implications of food gases in the food chain, providing examples of how they can be used to limit food waste and losses. The first two chapters examine the classification and role of food gases in Europe, and the third chapter then explores the chemical and physical features of commonly used food gases in the food and food packing industries. The fourth chapter highlights the impact of food gases on human health due to their possible abuse and misuse. This book appeals to researchers and professionals working in food production and quality control.
La ricerca neuropsicologica degli ultimi trenta anni ci ha fornito molte nuove informazioni sulla rappresentazione delle competenze semantiche nel cervello e sugli effetti di una loro compromissione conseguente a un danno cerebrale. Tali effetti si manifestano non solo nella capacita del soggetto di utilizzare il linguaggio ma anche in numerose attivita intelligenti extraverbali come l interazione con oggetti di uso quotidiano. Conoscere il funzionamento fisiologico e la compromissione patologica della memoria semantica ci ha messo in grado di costruire alcuni esercizi riabilitativi mirati e scientificamente fondati per far fronte alle esigenze del soggetto con disturbo semantico. Il presente strumento propone tre diversi esercizi riabilitativi, tutti basati sul modello componenziale delle rappresentazioni semantiche, che a nostro avviso e quello che ha goduto del maggior numero di conferme sperimentali dalla ricerca neuropsicologica. Nell esercizio Seleziona, al soggetto e richiesto di selezionare gli items target tra un certo numero di distrattori in base a un particolare tratto semantico (p.es. cerca quelli con le ali). Nell esercizio Vero/ Falso, al soggetto e richiesto di verificare l occorrenza di un singolo tratto nella rappresentazione semantica del concetto target (p. es. il coltello si usa per tagliare?). Nell esercizio Ordina, al soggetto e richiesto di ordinare gli esemplari di concetti diversi in base a una data dimensione, come la grandezza o la velocita. Oltre che rappresentare uno strumento mirato e scientificamente fondato il nostro programma riabilitativo ha il merito di aver affrontato il problema della ripetitivita degli esercizi preconfezionati che, come e noto, rischia di limitare la generalizzazione degli apprendimenti da parte del paziente. Per ovviare a questo problema si e puntato su l inserimento di un alto numero di concetti e di tratti nel database del programma e su una procedura casuale di abbinamento per la confezione dei singoli stimoli di ogni esercizio in modo da minimizzare l occorrenza di situazioni uguali."
Die kurze Zeit des neronischen Prinzipates ist, nicht zuletzt aus der Sicht spAterer Rezeption, eine der herausragenden Phasen rAmischer Literatur und Kultur. Gleichwohl verfolgen die einzelnen altertumswissenschaftlichen Disziplinen dabei ganz unterschiedliche Problemstellungen. Der vorliegende Band, der die Ergebnisse eines interdisziplinAren Symposions vom 3.-6. Mai 2001 in der Vila Vigoni (Menaggio) versammelt, sucht erstmals A1/4bergreifend nach einer kulturellen Klammer. Den Focus bildet dabei die auffallend hAufige Verfahrensweise einer "Verkehrung." FA1/4r die unterschiedlichen Bereiche, von der neronischen Literatur bis zu archAologischen Zeugnissen, wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit mit der Struktur der "Verkehrung" ein A1/4bergreifendes Leitkonzept der Zeit erfaAt ist. Dabei zeigt sich, daA viele EinzelphAnomene unter diesem Paradigma in ganz neuer Weise verstAndlich werden.
