Cognitive and Emotional Empathy in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury by Veronica Guadagni, Marco Sarà, Massimiliano Conson, Antonio Carolei, Simona Sacco, Silvia Vadini, Caterina Pistarini, Arcangelo Barbonetti, Giuseppe Iaria, Francesca Pistoia

“…Moreover, participants were further evaluated by means of the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI), which explores both cognitive and emotional aspects of empathy, and through an experimental protocol based on the use of a modified version of the computerized Multifaceted Empathy Test (MET) to evaluate emotional (direct and indirect) empathy and the ability to judge the valence of complex emotional scenes. Results. As compared to healthy controls, SCI patients reported higher scores on the Perspective-Taking subscale of the IRI, while, on the modified MET, they were less accurate in identifying the valence of neutral scenes, notwithstanding their spared direct and indirect emotional empathy ability. …”

The financial character of policing in Tunisia: collusions, extraversion and the criminalization of informality by Daniela Musina

“…These concepts serve to illuminate the co-constitutive (entangled) character of these practices, while bearing their negotiated dependent extraverted configurations, but also their complex and networked (assembled) character. Finally, they serve to identify relations of legitimation (collusions) that follow horizontal lines while enabling, in particular critical junctures, discursive and material manipulations used to recentralize power vertically, ultimately repositioning the ‘security custodians’ around central presidential power: an effect rendered particularly sharp by the self-coup of 2021 and its unfolding consequences. …”
