2014

Tutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää, minkälaisia representaatioita saamelaisista rakennetaan norjalaisessa sekä suomalaisessa matkailumarkkinoinnissa englanniksi. Aineistona oli yksi kunkin maan virallisen matkailumarkkinointiportaalin (VisitFinland ja VisitNorway)saamelaisaiheinen alasivu.

Rye doubled haploids : production and use in mapping studies

2009

Teija Tenhola-Roininen kehitti väitöskirjatyössään rukiin jalostusta helpottavia työkaluja rukiin laadun parantamiseksi ja suomalaisiin olosuhteisiin sopeutuneiden uusien ruislajikkeiden kehittämiseksi. Näiden työkalujen, ns. DNA-merkkien avulla voidaan valita lyhytkortisia ja korkean sakoluvun omaavia eli tähkäidännänkestäviä rukiita jalostusaineistosta.Rukiinviljely on vähentynyt Suomessa erityisesti huonojen satojen ja alentuneiden EU-tukien myötä. Tästä syystä yli puolet rukiista tuodaan ulkomailta. Suurin osa suomalaisessa ruisleivässä käytettävästä ruisjauhosta on siis ulkomaista alkuperää.Viljelijöille ruis on riskialtis vilja, koska sen laatu riippuu sääolosuhteista. Syksyllä kylvet…

Meme marketing: How marketers can drive better engagement using viral memes?

2022

Scholars and industry stakeholders have exhibited an interest in identifying the underlying dimensions of viral memes. However, the recipe for creating a viral meme remains obscure. This study makes a phenomenological contribution by examining viral memes, exploring the antecedents (i.e., content-related factors, customer-related factors, and media-related factors), consequences, and moderating factors using a mixed-method approach. The study presents a holistic framework for creating viral memes based on the perceptions of customers and industry stakeholders. Four quantitative studies (i.e., a lab experiment, an online quasi-experiment, an event study, and a brand recall study) validate th…
