The aims of this paper were to understand to what extent the well-documented gender gap in Italian adult society has an impact on both political and civic actions of younger generations, and whether the process of participation assumes specific features according to gender. 835 Italian participants (49.6% males; 50.4% female, aged from 16 to 26 years old; 20% under voting age) completed a self-administered questionnaire. Analyses confirmed general trends (voting at elections is the most frequently performed political action among Italian youth) and showed the existence of a small gender gap (a major orientation of young women toward civic action, while young men are more engaged in manifest political participation). The results confirmed that family cultural capital and normative support are significant predictors of political participation, in particular for girls and young women.

Relativamente pochi sono però gli strumenti disponibili per misurare il SoC in questa fase evolutiva. Le misure messe a punto su adulti hanno evidenziato vari problemi nelle loro applicazioni a soggetti adolescenti. L'obiettivo di questa ricerca era costruire una scala per misurare il SoC in adolescenza, che tenesse conto sia delle dimensioni teoriche del ...

Secondo Sarason (1974) il «senso di comunità» si riferisce a «la percezione di similarità con altri, una riconosciuta interdipendenza, una disponibilità a mantenere tale interdipendenza offrendo o facendo per altri ciò che ci si aspetta da loro, la sensazione di appartenere a una ...

Uno dei rari strumenti theory-driven attualmente disponibili per misurarlo è la scala del benessere sociale di C. Keyes (1998). L'obiettivo di questa ricerca era di verificare, mediante la scala di Keyes, il livello ...

A questionnaire was submitted to 297 subjects (48.5% males): 203 adolescents (14-19 years old) and 94 young adults (20-27 years old), from different socio-economic (SES) levels. Results confirm the significant impact of the residential context on youngsters' perceived residential quality, Stress and Subjective Well being outcomes; such effect partly differs according to participants' gender and age. Adolescents are less satisfied of their living context and enjoy lower well being than young adults. Social resources (Friend and Family Support) significantly buffer the effect of a deprived residential context of youngsters' Well being, whereas personal resources (Self-Efficacy) directly increase Well being levels.

Participants completed a questionnaire assessing sense of community, social well-being (Keyes, 1998), involvement in structured group activities (group membership) and civic engagement. Results showed that involvement in formal groups is associated with ...

A second aim was to analyse the antecedents of feeling of unsafety. In particular, we considered the in¯uence of sense of community, perception of social support and personal involvement in negative experiences in the urban environment. A questionnaire was submitted to 823 adolescents aged 14 to 19 years (43.3% male and 56.7% female), living in cities of different sizes in north-central Italy. Results show the presence of differences in feeling of unsafety and sense of community according to the size of the urban context and adolescent gender. Personal involvement in negative situations is a strong predictor of feeling of unsafety, whereas sense of community plays a limited role in reducing it. The picture concerning the effect of social support is mixed.
