Motivos por los que los emigrantes españoles se inscriben en el registro consular
2018
La inscripción en el registro consular no es obligatoria para los emigrantes españoles. Conlleva, no obstante, una serie de ventajas que propician, antes o después, su realización. En este artículo se identifican y analizan los principales motivos que animan a ello a los emigrantes españoles. Se toman como base fundamental los datos e informaciones obtenidos a través de una encuesta cuantitativa y entrevistas semiestructuradas realizadas a más de cuatro mil españoles residentes en el extranjero. Se concluye que los principales motivos para llevar a cabo esta inscripción son los relacionados con el ejercicio de derechos y deberes ciudadanos (especialmente el de sufragio en elecciones español…
Implementing an institutional change in a regional context : A case study of telemedicine implementation and diffusion in Agder
2018
Master's thesis Information Systems IS501 - University of Agder 2018 High life expectancy, aging population and an increasing chronic diseases generates new challenges for the current global healthcare (Brouard, Bardo, Vignot, Bonnet, & Vignot, 2014). Public agencies and business corporates have shown interest inadvances technological research and innovation projects to remedy the problem. Innovating in public sector is highly challengingand results shouldn’t be taken for granted (Dacin, Goodstein, & Scott, 2002). Further, there is a lack of understanding how public innovations are created (Sørensen & Torfing, 2011). Theoretically the thesis builds on two strands of theories: institutional …
Investigation of insulin resistance in narcoleptic patients: dependent or independent of body mass index?

Narcoleptic patients have been reported to suffer from an excess morbidity of Type 2 diabetes, even after correction for their often elevated body mass index.Methods: To explore whether narcolepsy is specifically associated with a propensity …
Autism spectrum disorder in Italy: demand for an integrated epidemiological surveillance system.
2016
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental syndrome of emerging public health concern, according to a documented significant increase of diagnosed cases of ASD in Europe and USA. In Italy, actually, it is not possible to estimate at national level a reliable ASD occurrence by using existing health and scholastic data flows. The lack of information has implications on social and healthcare services dedicated to subjects affected by ADS. The database of the Italian institute in charge of social and security assistance was accessed at the provincial level to investigate the ASD cases occurred in the Palermo province. The official reports of all subjects visited in 2013 by I…
Profiles of work intensification among Finnish managers: relationships with well-being and turnover intentions
2020
Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin, millaisia työn intensifikaation eli työn kiihtymisen profiileja voidaan tunnistaa johtajilla ja miten eri profiilien johtajat eroavat toisistaan työhyvinvoinnin ja työnkuvan vaihtoajatusten suhteen. Kyselytutkimuksen otos poimittiin Professoriliiton, Tieteentekijöiden liiton, Suomen Ekonomien ja Tekniikan Akateemisten jäsenrekistereistä. Tutkituista johtajista (N=705) yli puolet (56 %) oli miehiä. Löysimme K-keskiarvojen klusterianalyysin avulla viisi profiilia: 1) Riskiprofiili (voimakas työn intensifikaatio, 31 %), 2) suotuisa profiili (työn- ja urasuunnittelun vaatimukset lisääntyneet kohtuullisesti, 19 %), 3) haitta- ja haastestressoriprofiili (työtahti ja ti…

Genomic divergence landscape in recurrently hybridizing Chironomus sister taxa suggests stable steady state between mutual gene flow and isolation
2021
Abstract Divergence is mostly viewed as a progressive process often initiated by selection targeting individual loci, ultimately resulting in ever increasing genomic isolation due to linkage. However, recent studies show that this process may stall at intermediate stable equilibrium states without achieving complete genomic isolation. We tested the extent of genomic isolation between two recurrently hybridizing nonbiting midge sister taxa, Chironomus riparius and Chironomus piger, by analyzing the divergence landscape. Using a principal component‐based method, we estimated that only about 28.44% of the genomes were mutually isolated, whereas the rest was still exchanged. The divergence land…
Teenage Time Use and Educational Attainment in Adulthood in Finland
2021
We investigated the role of teenage everyday social ties in educational outcomes by examining the association between teenage time use and educational attainment in adulthood. The sample consisted of young people aged 10–18 from the 1979 Finnish Time Use Survey, and the same respondents’ educational attainment later in life recorded from population register data at the year of 40th birthday (n = 366 men and 393 women). We assessed the associations of time spent with the parents, on studying, leisure activities, as well as social connectedness with friends and participation in extracurricular activities, with educational outcomes. Our findings indicated that time spent with the father is pos…
Vankeusaikana isyydelle annetut merkitykset ja jännitteiset tunteet isien kertomana
2020
Miten vankeusrangaistusta suorittavat miehet kertovat isyyden merkityksestä ja isyyteen liittyvistä tunteista? Isyyteen liittyvät tunteet jakautuvat miesten puheessa voimaa antaviin ja voimaa vieviin tunteisiin. Haastattelututkimuksen tuottama isyyskerronta kietoutuu tiiviisti laajempiin isyyden kulttuurisiin ihanteisiin. Research on fatherhood among fathers serving custodial sentences Finland is a neglected topic. In this article we contribute to flling this gap by investigating the meanings imprisoned fathers attribute to their fatherhood and the emotions evoked by the combination of imprisonment and fatherhood. Interviews (N=14) were conducted in a Finnish closed prison and in open custo…
