The Fourth Industrial Revolution and Changes to Working Life : What Supports Adult Employees in Adapting to New Technology at Work?
2020
AbstractThis chapter aims to increase current understanding of adults’ individual learning pathways and needs when adapting to new technology. We review adults’ overall technology skills and depict, through chosen examples, how adults have adapted to technological change in their working lives. We present prior research on the challenges that the Fourth Industrial Revolution poses to adults’ further education, and based on the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC), we review adults’ problem-solving skills in technology-rich environments. Overall, the findings emphasize the importance of design-based education and the need for companies to flexibly address …
Migrant Women-experiences from the Mediterranean Region
2019
Introduction: The phenomenon of migration is characterized and influenced by a number of different variables; and the different stages of journey are related to different levels and types of psychological distress. Women, in particular, are exposed to further specific risks during migration. Aim: To determine the factors that affect the psychological health of migrant women during the different stages of the migration journey. Methods: We provide a narrative review of the literature around the experiences of women during migration process, with a geographical focus on women migrating to the Mediterranean area. Results: Little data is currently available on the burden of mental health disor…
Protection Motivation Theory in Information Systems Security Research
2021
Protection motivation theory (PMT) is one of the most commonly used theories to examine information security behaviors. Our systematic review of the application of PMT in information systems (IS) security and the comparison with its application for decades in psychology identified five categories of important issues that have not yet been examined in IS security research. Discussing these issues in terms of why they are relevant and important for IS security, and to what extent IS research has not considered them, offers new research opportunities associated with the study of PMT and IS security threats. We suggest how future studies can approach each of the open issues to provide a new roa…
Vertaisarvioinnin harjoitusohjelma ja vertaisarviointien toteutus Ketosen väitöskirjassa
2021
Tämä materiaali on suomenkielinen kuvaus vertaisarviointi-intervention toteutuksesta Ketosen (2021) väitöskirjassa. Toteutus sisältää vertaisarvioinnin harjoituksia ja varsinaisia vertaisarviointeja. Interventio kesti 1,5 vuotta ja se toteutettiin fysiikan ja kemian oppiaineissa luokka-asteilla 7-8 vuosien 2018-2019 aikana. Harjoitukset ja vertaisarvioinnit on materiaalissa kuvattu siinä järjestyksessä, jossa ne tutkimuksessa toteutettiin. Interventio suunniteltiin vertaisarvioinnin aiempaa tutkimustietoa peruskoulun kontekstiin soveltaen. Materiaali toimii esimerkkinä siitä, miten vertaisarviointia voi harjoitella ja toteuttaa peruskoulussa osana oppiaineen opiskelua. This material is a de…
Glutathione peroxidase-1 in health and disease: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic opportunities.
2011
Reactive oxygen species, such as superoxide and hydrogen peroxide, are generated in all cells by mitochondrial and enzymatic sources. Left unchecked, these reactive species can cause oxidative damage to DNA, proteins, and membrane lipids. Glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPx-1) is an intracellular antioxidant enzyme that enzymatically reduces hydrogen peroxide to water to limit its harmful effects. Certain reactive oxygen species, such as hydrogen peroxide, are also essential for growth factor-mediated signal transduction, mitochondrial function, and maintenance of normal thiol redox-balance. Thus, by limiting hydrogen peroxide accumulation, GPx-1 also modulates these processes. This review explor…
What motivates the adoption of green restaurant products and services? A systematic review and future research agenda
2021
Issues regarding green restaurants have received significant scholarly and practitioner attention in the last decade, particularly concerning why consumers adopt green restaurants. Although several reviews exist on green hospitality, a comprehensive review of the literature on consumers' green restaurant adoption is currently lacking. The following systematic literature review examines 50 research studies published on the consumer adoption of green restaurant services to address this gap accordingly. Through a detailed content analysis, the research profile and thematic analysis are presented. The review further identifies four key thematic foci: (a) consumer behavior variables studied, (b)…
Viktorijas laika sociālās problēmas E. Gaskelas romānos
2017
Bakalaura darba tēma ir Viktorijas laika sociālās problēmas E. Gaskelas romānos. Darba mērķis ir salīdzināt Gaskelas romānus „Mērija Bārtone” un „Ziemeļi un dienvidi” ar teorētisko informāciju par Viktorijas laika sociālajām problēmam un industrializācijas procesu 19. gadsimtā Lielbritānijā. Salīdzinājums ir veikts, lai atklātu kādas sociālas problēmas ir attēlotas romānos, un cik precīzi Gaskelas atainojums atbilst 19. gadsimta situācijai Lielbritānijā. Pētījumu metodes ir: vēsturiska un salīdzinoša analīze, teksta analīze. Pētījuma rezultāti atklāja, ka Gaskela attēloja dažādas sociālas problēmas kuras ir saistītas ar 19. gadsimta industrializāciju Lielbritānijā.

Men’s Family Breadwinning in Today’s Norway: A Blind Spot in the Strive for Gender Equality.
2020
The Nordics are known as countries of gender equality. Still, the heterosexual gender and labour division arrangement in the nuclear family to a large degree persists. This particularly seems to be...
RSPO2 gene rearrangement: a powerful driver of β-catenin activation in liver tumours
2019
ObjectiveWe aimed at the identification of genetic alterations that may functionally substitute for CTNNB1 mutation in ß-catenin-activated hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).DesignLarge cohorts of HCA (n=185) and HCC (n=468) were classified using immunohistochemistry. The mutational status of the CTNNB1 gene was determined in ß-catenin-activated HCA (b-HCA) and HCC with at least moderate nuclear CTNNB1 accumulation. Ultra-deep sequencing was used to characterise CTNNB1wild-type and ß-catenin-activated HCA and HCC. Expression profiling of HCA subtypes was performed.ResultsA roof plate-specific spondin 2 (RSPO2) gene rearrangement resulting from a 46.4 kb microd…
