Temporal perspective on the gender-related differences in online learning behaviour
2022
Although several studies suggested considering gender in online learning, the literature about how male and female students would behave is fragmented. Little attention has been paid to the effect of gender on online learning behavioural patterns. This study aimed at investigating the roles of gender in online learning behaviours by analyzing the gender-related differences of students’ online learning behavioural patterns. We used the case study approach with descriptive statistical analysis, lag sequential analysis, and temporal log data analysis to investigate gender-related differences in students’ online learning behaviours. The results indicated no significant difference in the counts …
Moral Attitudes Predict Cheating and Gamesmanship Behaviors Among Competitive Tennis Players
2017
Background: The present study tested Lee et al.’s (2008) model of moral attitudes and cheating behavior in sports in an Italian sample of young tennis players and extended it to predict behavior in actual match play. In the first phase of the study we proposed that moral, competence and status values would predict prosocial and antisocial moral attitudes directly, and indirectly through athletes’ goal orientations. In the second phase, we hypothesized that moral attitudes would directly predict actual cheating behavior observed during match play.\ud \ud Method: Adolescent competitive tennis players (N = 314, 76.75% males, M age = 14.36 years, SD = 1.50) completed measures of values, goal or…
Deriving electrophysiological brain network connectivity via tensor component analysis during freely listening to music
2020
Recent studies show that the dynamics of electrophysiological functional connectivity is attracting more and more interest since it is considered as a better representation of functional brain networks than static network analysis. It is believed that the dynamic electrophysiological brain networks with specific frequency modes, transiently form and dissolve to support ongoing cognitive function during continuous task performance. Here, we propose a novel method based on tensor component analysis (TCA), to characterize the spatial, temporal, and spectral signatures of dynamic electrophysiological brain networks in electroencephalography (EEG) data recorded during free music-listening. A thr…
Sparse nonnegative tensor decomposition using proximal algorithm and inexact block coordinate descent scheme
2021
Nonnegative tensor decomposition is a versatile tool for multiway data analysis, by which the extracted components are nonnegative and usually sparse. Nevertheless, the sparsity is only a side effect and cannot be explicitly controlled without additional regularization. In this paper, we investigated the nonnegative CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (NCP) decomposition with the sparse regularization item using l1-norm (sparse NCP). When high sparsity is imposed, the factor matrices will contain more zero components and will not be of full column rank. Thus, the sparse NCP is prone to rank deficiency, and the algorithms of sparse NCP may not converge. In this paper, we proposed a novel model of sparse NCP w…
Tekijänoikeuden oikeuttaminen
2006
Laura Leppämäki rakentaa väitöskirjatutkimuksessaan kokonaiskuvaa tekijänoikeuskeskustelusta, joka on muodostunut hyvin kriittiseksi vallitsevaa järjestelmää kohtaan. Tutkimus sivuaa myös nykytaiteen ongelmia ja tekijänoikeuden kriteereitä.Tekijänoikeus kohtaa voimistuvaa kritiikkiä erityisesti käyttäjien suunnalta. Myös uusien teosten tekijät kritisoivat tekijänoikeutta liian tiukkana ja luovuutta kahlehtivana, sillä varsinkin jo olemassa olevien töiden hyödyntäminen on hankalaa. Olisi myös hyvä miettiä, onko omistaminen ja siitä kiinnipitäminen aina kohtuullista ja tarpeellista. Voiko liian tiukka tekijänoikeus myös rajoittaa luovuuden ilmenemistä yhteiskunnassa?Tekijänoikeuden teosluette…
IPR-instituutiot teknologisen kehityksen määrittäjinä
2022
Aineettomien oikeuksien (Intellectual Property Rights, IPR) instituutioiden kuten patentti- ja tavaramerkkijärjestelmien kehityksellä on erityinen rooli tutkimus- ja kehitysinvestointien (T&K), innovaatiotoiminnan sekä teknologisen kehityksen määrän ja suunnan määrittäjinä. Tässä artikkelissa keskitytään IPR-instituutioihin teknologisen kehityksen määrittäjinä ja tarkastellaan ilmiötä suomalaisesta näkökulmasta. Pitkällä aikavälillä aineettoman omaisuuden ja sen suojaamisen merkitys taloudessa, yritysten liiketoiminnassa ja innovaatiotuottojen saamisessa on kasvanut, samalla kun kansallisia ja kansainvälisiä IPR-järjestelmiä on kehitetty ja yhdenmukaistettu. IPR-instituutioiden kehityksen p…

Positions constructed for a female therapist in male batterers' treatment groups
2010
The aim of this study was to examine how male batterers regard to a female therapist in their group treatment. Of interest were the socially constructed positions for a female therapist. This study intends to examine what kind of positions the batterers construct for a female therapist in their speech and how the female therapist reacts to invitations to take up these positions. Attention was paid also to the male therapist’s positions in these situations. The topic was approached from a social constructionist and discourse analytic point of view and Grounded Theory was used as the method of analysing the data. The data consisted of five therapy groups for male batterers, each of which gath…
