Defining the accessibility of physical activity : Tracing the social dimension

2022

The promotion of the physical activity (PA) of citizens has traditionally focused on improving spatial accessibility, especially in municipal administrations. However, research evidence indicates that proximity to PA environments is not a sufficient condition for increased PA. This article presents a broader model of the dimensions of the accessibility of PA, developed in cooperation between researchers and the authorities of two cities in Finland. As a result, ten dimensions affecting accessibility have been identified: spatial, temporal, physical/technological, informational, economic, legal/ administrative, cultural/attitudinal, skills related, mental and social. A special focus of atten…

Bodily obsessions : intrusiveness of organs in somatic obsessive–compulsive disorder

2022

AbstractIn this paper, I will provide a phenomenological analysis of somatic obsessions at times present in obsessive–compulsive disorder. I will compare two different types of bodily obsessions, which have a different neurological-physiological underpinning: anguishing awareness of one’s own heartbeat and of one’s own breathing. In addition, I will contrast these two with how one experiences one’s own liver. I will use the concepts "tactility obsessions” and "motility obsessions”, which I have coined for the purpose of this comparison. In other words, these are obsessions concerning the felt sense of one’s autonomous organs and obsessions concerning one’s ability to voluntarily move. Ultim…

The effect of spatial and temporal scale on camouflage in North African rodents

2022

Abstract Background matching, a common form of camouflage, is a widespread anti-predator adaptation that hinders detection or recognition by increasing the resemblance of prey to its environment. However, the natural environment is complex and both spatially and temporally variable, which constrains effective background matching as an anti-predator strategy. Here, using remote sensing data (publicly available satellite imagery), we investigated how variation of habitat parameters predicts background matching in 16 Sahara–Sahel rodent species across spatial and temporal scales. All fur colour parameters (hue, saturation and brightness) strongly matched the respective habitats of the differen…

Kotona asuvien ikääntyneiden ihmisten koettu turvattomuus

2015

Seija Uusihannu (2015). Kotona asuvien ikääntyneiden ihmisten koettu turvattomuus. Jyväskylän yliopisto, liikuntatieteellinen tiedekunta, terveystieteiden laitos, gerontologian ja kansanterveystieteen pro gradu -tulkielma, 59 sivua. Turvattomuuden tunne on yleistä ikääntyneillä ihmisillä. Se on yksilöllinen tunnetila, joka horjuttaa sisäistä hyvää oloa ja elämänhallintaa aiheuttaen pelkoja, psykosomaattista oirehdintaa ja huolestuneisuutta. Turvattomuuden tunne on monimutkainen kokonaisuus liittyen mm. yksilölliseen haavoittuvuuteen, terveyteen ja toimintakykyyn, sosiaaliseen turvallisuuteen ja lähiympäristön esteellisyyteen. Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää kotona asu…

The contested concept of vulnerability : a literature review

2020

The concept of vulnerability is widely used in the social sciences as well as in policy making, health and social care services and in social work, referring to a variety of groups or individuals, but it has rarely been theoretically defined or analysed. This article provides a literature review on how vulnerability has been used and defined in academic, peer-reviewed articles published in international social science journals between 2000 and 2016. The aim is to analyse and clarify critically the concept for social work research. The article analyses themes and topics connected to vulnerability, how gender is related to vulnerability and how vulnerability is conceptualised in these article…

ICAnDoiT: the impact of computerised adaptive corrective feedback on L2 English learners

2016

The present dissertation examines the impact of (computerised) adaptive corrective feedback, that is, feedback dynamically adapting to learners’ abilities, in English as a second/foreign language (L2) and explores the ways to maximise this impact. The study was inspired by the sociocultural perspective on development, which had implications for the interpretation of the results, including those obtained through statistical data analyses. The dissertation comprises five articles and a synthesis. In the first article, a positive effect of adaptive corrective feedback on the learners’ ability to formulate L2 English wh-questions is established. The second article explores how learners’ beliefs…
