Opiskelijavaihto : minkälaista siellä sitten tulee olemaan?

2011

Jyväskylän yliopiston musiikin laitoksen musiikkikasvatuksen koulutusohjelma on vuodesta 2004 asti ollut mukana CIMOn koordinoimassa North-South-South-verkosto-ohjelmassa. Tässä tutkimuksessa on tutkittu Jyväskylän yliopiston musiikin laitoksen ja Etelä-Afrikan Pretorian yliopiston välistä NSS-ohjelmaan liittyvää opiskelijaliikkuvuutta. Tutkimuksessa on haastateltu kahta Etelä-Afrikkaan opiskelijavaihtoon lähtevää opiskelijaa. Tarkoituksena oli selvittää opiskelijoiden ajatuksia opiskeluvaihtoa kohtaan. Tutkimuksessa haluttiin selvittää opiskelijoiden lähdön motiiveja, toiveita ja odotuksia vaihtoa kohtaan, sekä opiskelijoiden tietoutta NSS-ohjelmasta.

Theory-based digital intervention to promote weight loss and weight loss maintenance (Choosing Health)

2020

IntroductionDigital behavioural weight loss interventions have the potential to improve public health; however, these interventions are often not adequately tailored to the needs of the participants. This is the protocol for a trial that aims to determine the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the Choosing Health programme as a means to promote weight loss and weight loss maintenance among overweight/obese adults.Methods and analysisThe proposed study is a two-group randomised controlled trial with a nested interrupted time series (ITS) within-person design. Participants (n=285) will be randomly assigned to either the Choosing Health digital intervention or a control group. For interve…

Communication behaviors of exchange students as perceived by themselves and by their hosts : Japanese students in Finland

2011

Participating in an exchange program abroad has been popular for university students all over the world. Likewise, there have been many studies on exchange students' identities or culture shocks, or their communication behaviors. However, little is known on the communication behaviors of exchange students with viewpoints of the hosts. The purpose of the present study is to examine how Japanese exchange students at the University of Jyväskylä interpret their communication behaviors in relation to their self-construals by combining the views of Japanese exchange students themselves with those of Finnish students as hosts. In addition, another purpose is to find out the function of Nihongo Mee…

Weight loss induces changes in adaptive thermogenesis in female and male physique athletes

2023

Physique athletes lose substantial weight preparing for competitions, potentially altering systemic metabolism. We investigated sex differences in body composition, resting energy expenditure (REE), and appetite-regulating and thyroid hormone changes during a competition preparation among drug-free physique athletes. The participants were female (10 competing (COMP) and 10 nondieting controls (CTRL)) and male (13 COMP and 10 CTRL) physique athletes. COMP were tested before they started their diet 23 weeks before competing (PRE), during their diet one week before competing (MID), and 23 weeks after competing (POST), whereas CTRL were tested at similar intervals but did not diet. Measurement…

Prosociality as a mediator between teacher collaboration and turnover intention

2019

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the mediating role of prosociality, which is defined in terms of helping and benefitting others, between teacher collaboration and their turnover intentions. Prosociality was measured as prosocial impact and prosocial motivation.Design/methodology/approachThis study was conducted through a cross-sectional survey of 260 elementary and junior high school teachers in Japan. A structural equational model was employed to examine the mediating roles of prosocial impact and prosocial motivation in the relationships between teacher collaboration and their turnover intention.FindingsThe results, first, supported the hypotheses: the high perception o…

Internal and External Hiring

2019

Using large-scale, linked, employer–employee, Finnish panel data, the authors examine firms’ internal versus external hiring decisions more comprehensively than has prior literature. The results show that vacancies in job hierarchies are filled more often by horizontal moves than by promotions. Most horizontal moves are external and within the same job functions, so that internally promoted workers face external competitors occupying higher job levels. Compared to internally promoted workers, external and internal horizontal hires have stronger observable ability indicators (e.g., education, experience, prior work history) but weaker job performance in the year preceding the transfer. Inter…
