Internationalization pathways of family SMEs:Psychic distance as a focal point
2010
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate how psychic distance affects the internationalization process, foreign market entry (FME), and entry mode choice of Finnish small and medium-sized family enterprises (family SMEs) operating in France. Design/methodology/approach: The paper reports findings from an in-depth case study covering four Finnish manufacturing family SMEs operating in the French market. The data were analyzed using the Uppsala model and distance creating and distance-bridging factors encountered in the FME to France. Findings: The findings reveal that the family SMEs mainly followed a sequential process and favored indirect entry modes before entering the French …
Spirometric phenotypes from early childhood to young adulthood: a Chronic Airway Disease Early Stratification study
2021
Background The prevalences of obstructive and restrictive spirometric phenotypes, and their relation to early-life risk factors from childhood to young adulthood remain poorly understood. The aim was to explore these phenotypes and associations with well-known respiratory risk factors across ages and populations in European cohorts. Methods We studied 49 334 participants from 14 population-based cohorts in different age groups (≤10, >10–15, >15–20, >20–25 years, and overall, 5–25 years). The obstructive phenotype was defined as forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) z-score less than the lower limit of normal (LLN), whereas the restrictive phenotype was defined a…

A preliminary investigation assessing the basic digital capabilities of minimally verbal children on the autism spectrum with intellectual disability
2020
Purpose Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can demonstrate a preference for using digital technologies which can represent a relative strength within the autism community. Such a strength would have implications for digitally mediated interventions and support for autism. However, research to date has not developed a methodology for assessing the capabilities of minimally verbal children on the autism spectrum with intellectual disability (ID) to use digital technology. Design/methodology/approach Six minimally verbal children with ASD and ID undertook an accessible assessment that identified what capabilities for interacting with a digital tablet device they could and could not …
Terranovam natale meum solum : remarks on the textual history of Poggio Bracciolini’s Historiae Florentini populi
2007
Poggio Bracciolini’s last work, the Historiae Florentini populi, was edited and dedicated to Federico di Montefeltro by Jacopo di Poggio in 1472. Jacopo also translated the work into the volgare and had it printed in Venice in 1476. In the light of the manuscript tradition, Jacopo’s editorial changes were more considerable than has hitherto been thought. The propagation of his edition and translation would seem to be intimately connected with his political aspirations ending in his unfortunate participation in the Pazzi conspiracy of 1478. peerReviewed
WT Type 4 Benchmarks for IEC 61400-27-1
2019
Since several years there has been a constant effort at international level for the standardization and the validation of different types of wind turbine (WT) dynamic models. The paper focuses on the IEC 61400-27-1 type 4 model, proposing and fully describing two benchmark systems for the assessment of dynamic performance. The first system is a simple setup and it is designed to specifically assess the transient response of the WT controls. The second system is based on the IEEE 9-bus test system, and it is a multi-machine configuration allowing for the inclusion of the typical power system dynamics of synchronous machines and corresponding primary regulators. System configurations, models …
Organisaation vihreä työkalu : Green Office -ympäristöjärjestelmän vaikutukset organisaatiossa
2010
Ilmastonmuutos herättää keskustelua kansalaisissa ja nykyään myös entistä enemmän organisaatioissa. Kustannuksia syntyy, kun ympäristövaikutuksia ja sitä kautta ilmastonmuutosta pyritään hidastamaan, mutta huomattavasti vähemmän kuin ilmastonmuutoksen seurauksista voi pahimmillaan syntyä, ellei asiaan puututa ajoissa. Ympäristöjärjestelmä on yksi keino ottaa ympäristövastuu kokonaisvaltaisesti organisaatiossa huomioon. Lisäksi sidosryhmien painostus, kiristyvät lait ja asetukset sekä kilpailuedun tavoittelu ohjaavat organisaatioita ympäristöjärjestelmien käyttöönottoon. Niin kutsuttu kevennetty ympäristöjärjestelmä voi olla ISO 14001 -standardia tai EMAS-järjestelmää sopivampi ratkaisu toim…

Worldwide Diffusion of ISO 14001 Standard
2008
We conduct an empirical examination of national conditions that promote the diffusion of the ISO 14001 standard. Our estimates confirm earlier studies on several determinants. While environmental considerations are important in the diffusion of the ISO 14001 standard, we show that other factors play a significant role as well, such as the prior diffusion of ISO 9000 and the country’s education level. Our main contribution is to provide empirical evidence for the hypothesis that the participation of a country or an economic sector in the standard-setting process is a major driver of its future adoption of the standard.
