How is social capital formed across the digital-physical servicescape?

2022

This study examines how consumers create social capital in interactions with other customers and service personnel while shopping in retail stores that consist of both physical and digital locations. We draw on servicescape literature to explore the role of social capital in determining the social realm in digital-physical servicescapes using data from focus group discussions. We demonstrate how customers utilize both the digital and physical servicescapes in a convergent manner to form the social realm of the servicescape with the other people in service encounters. The implications provide guidelines on how the integration of digital and physical channels facilitates trust, human contact,…

Developmental pathways of language development : a longitudinal predictive study from prelinguistic stage to outcome at school entry

2017

This research focused on the pathways of development during the prelinguistic stage and from prelinguistic development to later language ability. The first goal was to follow and describe the development of several prelinguistic communication skills during the first two years of life (Studies I and II). The second goal was to examine the predictive relations between this development and language ability and difficulties, as well as memory, up to school age (Studies I, II, and III). The third goal evaluated the feasibility of parental screening in identifying children at risk for language and communication difficulties (Studies I, II, and III). Prelinguistic skills were followed with a paren…

Parisuhteen vuorovaikutuksen representoituminen naistenlehdissä

2011

Tämän tutkielman tavoitteena oli selvittää, miten parisuhteen vuorovaikutus representoituu naistenlehdissä. Tutkimusaihe valikoitui siksi, että parisuhde läheisenä vuorovaikutussuhteena muodostaa vahvan ja yhteiskunnallisesti tärkeän toimintayksikön, jonka merkityksiä luodaan, uusinnetaan ja muokataan median representaatioissa. Tutkimusaineistona toimivat Kotilieden ja Kodin Kuvalehden vuoden 2010 vuosikerrat. Mainokset, ihmissuhdepalsta ja lukijoiden palautesivut rajautuivat kuitenkin aineiston ulkopuolelle. Tutkimusmetodina käytettiin aineistolähtöistä sisällönanalyysia ja diskurssinanalyysia yhdistävää menetelmää. Aineistosta erotettiin viisi parisuhteen vuorovaikutusta kuvaavaa diskurss…

EDM and Ecstasy : the lived experiences of electronic music festival attendees

2016

This study aimed to provide a comprehensive exploration of the lived experiences of individuals who attended a multi-day electronic dance music festival. The present study was primarily interested in the perceived beneficial changes within the individual, following their festival experience. As well, we investigated if first time festival attendees perceived changes differed to those of returning individuals. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were used to collect data from 12 individuals who attended the 2015 Electronic Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas. Six participants were first-time attendees while the remaining 6 were individuals returning to the festival. The data was analysed using th…

How to get things done in social virtual reality : A study of team cohesion in social virtual reality–enabled teams

2022

Social virtual reality (SVR) enables teams to operate in a virtual environment that simulates and enhances real-world interactions. However, there is an absence of empirical analysis of how SVR can affect the performance of virtual teams. This paper documents how SVR affects the formation of team cohesion (i.e., task cohesion and social cohesion), which is a critical success factor for team performance. To address this gap in the research, we conducted a qualitative study by interviewing 20 members from virtual teams assigned to perform a challenging collaborative task in SVR. As a contribution, our study identifies five primary affordances and 11 sub-affordances for team cohesion in SVR. W…

Social Participation Considered as Meaningful in old age − the Perceptions of Senior Housing Residents in Finland

2023

AbstractAs populations across the world age, there is a recognised need for promoting social participation in older adults. Previous studies related to social participation have addressed that interactions perceived as meaningful may improve quality of life in old age. However, what is less clear is the nature of such participation from the perspective of older adults, as the vast majority of studies have been quantitative. The present study aimed to explore what characterises social participation that contributes to a meaningful everyday life, from the viewpoint of independently living Finnish older adults. Thematic analysis was used as an interpretative method drawing on semi-structured i…

Using the Storytelling Method to Hear Children’s Perspectives and Promote Their Social-Emotional Competence

2019

This study investigated the use of a playful, narrative, vignette-based method, called Story Magician’s Play Time (SMPT), in supporting children’s social-emotional reasoning and in helping children practice their social skills. We set out to examine (a) in what ways children use SMPT sessions to explore social interaction situations and to practice social skills, and (b) what story content and narrative play behavior during the SMPT sessions reveal about the social-emotional competence of children, in terms of acquisition and performance skills. The data were collected during SMPT storytelling sessions where 5- to 6-year-old children narrated stories of familiar but challenging daily situa…
