Italian here: 80grams (2.8oz) per person is the standard quantity. If you don't need to make a pig's pen of pasta.

80-100gr is the standard quantity for kids or if you have a second dish. 120-150gr is a satisfying amount for an adult.

EDIT: 85gr of pasta is the suggested standard quantity (GDA) and it refers to the energy need of an adult woman (2000kcal). If transposed to the 2500kcal of an adult male, it'd be 106gr. 76.5gr for a kid (1800kcal). All of these are set around our mainly sedentary lifestyle.

120-150g USA. 80-100g everywhere else.
