Social media users in search of ‘facts’: the Trade Union House fire case
2021
What factors influence users to believe the stories they find in social media, and what role do emotions play for users in concluding that a particular fact is ‘true’? This article examines one aspect of emotionalized communication in social networks in an information war context, namely, how social network users make decisions about the reliability of the information they receive. We employ a qualitative study of a single case – a discussion among Russian-speaking Livejournal.com and Facebook.com users of a tragic incident in Ukraine – the deadly fire that took place in the Odessa Trade Union House on 2 May, 2014. The relevancy of this case consists in how, for all its uniqueness as a trag…
"Emme ole kristinuskon wihollisia" : nuorsuomalaisen maailmankuvan ulottuvuudet 1880-1890-luvuilla
2017
Tämä tutkielma tarkastelee nuorsuomalaisen maailmankuvan rakentumista ja ulottuvuuksia 1800-luvun viimeisinä vuosikymmeninä. Lähdeaineistona on käytetty neljää nuorsuomalaista sanomalehteä: Keski-Suomea, Savoa, Viipurin Sanomia ja Päivälehteä. Menetelmänä on ollut kriittinen diskurssianalyysi, jonka kautta on pyritty hahmottelemaan, miten nuorsuomalaiset representoivat keskustelun teemoja sekä konstruoivat omaa identiteettiään ja positiotaan suhteessa vastustajiinsa. Nuorsuomalaiset puolustivat tieteellistä maailmankuvaa, mikä tuli ilmi etenkin darwinismin omaksumisena. Nuorsuomalaisten tiedeusko oli niin voimakasta, että tiede ja sen tulokset representoitiin itsestäänselvyyksinä. Darwinism…
Information, Communications and Media Technologies for Sustainability: Constructing Data-Driven Policy Narratives
2021
This paper introduces the idea of data-driven narratives to examine how the use of information, communications, and media technologies (ICMTs) impacts the sustainable growth of economies. While ICMTs have regularly been advocated as a policy tool for growth and development, there is a research gap in empirical studies validating how such policies may be effective. This analysis is based on historical panel data from 39 economies across the developed North (19) and developing South (20). The industry-standard Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM) methodology was applied to construct narratives that weave extant theories with empirical data. The art of developing data-dri…
Koneen lumo : mikrotietokoneharrastus Suomessa 1970-luvulta 1990-luvun puoliväliin
2004
Millainen on ollut kotitietokoneiden kehityshistoria Suomessa? Kuinka suosittu pelikone oli Commodore 64? Oliko Atari ST parempi kuin Amiga? Koneen lumo vie meidät takaisin aikaan, jolloin mikrotietokoneet olivat vasta tulossa kulutuselektroniikkamarkkinoille. Tutkimus pureutuu tietokoneharrastuksen eri yhteisöjen, kerhojen ja alakulttuurien syntymiseen ja vakiintumisen. Vahvana teemana on hyödyn ja viihteen välinen jännitteinen suhde. Uusien ja ihmeellisten kotitietokoneiden tulo suomalaiseen arkeen ei ollut ristiriidaton tai ongelmaton tapahtuma. Tarkasteluun nousevat myös harrastukseen liittyvät pelot, uhkatekijät ja ennakkoluulot. Teos käsittelee niin ikään kotitietokonelehtien kehityst…
Changes in food habits amongst Norwegian adolescents in 2016 and 2019 according to gender and socioeconomic status
2021
Background: Monitoring dietary habits is important in order to identify risk groups and as a basis for targeted public health initiatives. Objective: To study trends in consumption of selected foods and beverages from 2016 to 2019 amongst Norwegian adolescents according to gender and parental education. Design: Repeated cross-sectional study amongst 25,996 adolescents, aged 14–17 years old. Consumption of selected food and beverages was measured by an online food frequency questionnaire and general linear models were applied to estimate changes in dietary habits. Results: Between 2016 and 2019, we observed a reduced frequency of consumption of vegetables (from 4.7 to 4.4 times/week), fruit …
Sounding Together: Family-Centered Music Therapy as Facilitator for Parental Singing During Skin-to-Skin Contact
2017
Introduction: When it comes to the delicate relationship between a baby and its parents, the voices of the parents have a significant role in communicating love, tenderness, and closeness as well as in supporting self-regulation as necessary for secure attachment. Under suboptimal experiences, such as premature birth, infant-directed singing takes on an even more important and therapeutic role since preterm infants miss the finely attuned auditory stimulation of the womb and the mother-infant dyad is disrupted too early.
Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score is Associated With Risk of Recurrence in Bladder Cancer Patients After Radical Cystectomy
2015
Recently, many studies explored the role of inflammation parameters in the prognosis of urinary cancers, but the results were not consistent. The modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), a systemic inflammation marker, is a prognostic marker in various types of cancers. The aim of the present study was to investigate the usefulness of the preoperative mGPS as predictor of recurrence-free (RFS), overall (OS), and cancer-specific (CSS) survivals in a large cohort of urothelial bladder cancer (UBC) patients.A total of 1037 patients with UBC were included in this study with a median follow-up of 22 months (range 3-60 months). An mGPS = 0 was observed in 646 patients (62.3%), mGPS = 1 in 297 pa…
Configurational theory in traditional manufacturing industries: a new model of high-performing small and medium-sized enterprises
2020
The goal of this study is to provide a model of high-performing small and medium-sized companies to address the new environmental challenges in traditional manufacturing industries. Adopting a configurational logic and following an inductive approach based on four high-performing firms, this paper provides new empirical evidence on how the steps followed by these firms are adjusted to the high-performance models prescribed by the literature. In doing so, it also offers a dynamic view of the interrelationships between the strategy and the new conditions of the environment. At a practitioner level, the paper illustrates which recipes are more appropriate to prescribe recommendations for a mor…
