Vuorovaikutus hallinnollisissa ryhmissä

2020

This article aims to analyze international research on social interaction in administrative groups in the 2000s on the basis of a systematic examination of 62 peer-reviewed empirical research reports. We examined the data through a qualitative content analysis and organized the results into three sections: 1) defining an administrative group, 2) the used research methods and data, and 3) the focus of research.

Group conceptualizations were seldom based on specific theoretical group definitions or approaches. In the context of research methods, there were no specific tre…

Men and women in positions of responsibility: A qualitative analysis of organizational readiness in France and Finland

2016

This paper examines whether male and female managers hold different opinion on women in managerial and higher level positions, depending on their different cultural background.

Findings indicate that regardless of the country and of the cultural backgrounds, organizations are not ready to let women cl…

Rethinking virtuality in a digital media age

2017

Scholars have studied virtuality in teams and organizations for over two decades. The term “virtual” is of- ten used loosely and imprecisely, and theoretical debates have flourished over what differentiates virtual from non-virtual teams. In these debates, scholarship has not explicitly considered the significant ways in which the technological landscape has changed over this time. While the virtual is often treated as a separate space from “real”, physical or face-to-face interaction, the increasing technological saturation of our lives has resulted in a blurring of online and offline worlds such that these distinctions may no longer hold up. I will explore whether the term “virtuality” st…

Les simplifications de l'accord du participe passé dans la CMO : un vrai tabou linguistique pour la langue Française?

2016

The aim of this article is to analyze the agreement of the past participle in Computer mediated communication, especially on Facebook. The graphic realization of the past participle agreement is considered as one of the main difficulties of the French orthography which is characterized by its extreme opacity. Breaking this rule can be compared in the French culture to a sort of a linguistic taboo. The aim of our study is to answer the question if the simplifications of the agreement of the past participle are allowed in Computer mediated communication or if they are considered as a kind of linguistic taboo. To answer this question, we have of a corpus of 200 past participle agreements downl…
