"I never gave up"

2019

Esports phenomena have grown rapidly in recent years, and so has research on the topic. Some of the research has also addressed esports fandom (see e.g. Taylor 2012). Nevertheless, studies comparing and contrasting how players and fans engage with the game and the esports based on that game are scarce. This study compares and contrasts how players and fans engage with playable game characters and esports players. The paper draws on previous research in fan studies, sports fandom and esports to examine the relationships of players and fans of the videogame Overwatch (Blizzard Entertainment 2016) with the fictional heroes of the game as well as with their favorite professional players in the …

The role of personal and relative job performance in promotion decisions

2021

This study employs personnel data from a large university to examine how supervisors utilize information on employees' job performance in promotion decisions. The study shows that better-performing employees are rewarded with promotions as a higher output of peer-reviewed publications and better quality of research output are associated with a higher probability of being promoted. The study also shows that supervisors compare their subordinates' job performance when deciding on promotions: employees who outperform their colleagues in terms of research output and research quality are more likely to be promoted. Subsequently, the study provides evidence to support the key premise of the tourn…

Vain yksi voimaharjoitus viikossa riittää toimintakyvyn ylläpitämiseen ikääntyneillä

2018

Tutkimuksella selvitimme, parantaako voimaharjoittelu iäkkäiden toimintakykyä, ja onko harjoitusmäärillä vaikutusta toimintakyvyn muutoksiin. Tutkimukseen osallistui 106 koehenkilöä (65–75 v.), jotka satunnaistettiin neljään ryhmään: 1x/vko (H1, n=26), 2x/vko (H2, n=27) ja 3x/vko (H3, n=28) harjoitteleviin ja kontrolliryhmään (K, n=25). Ensimmäisen kolmen kuukauden ajan kaikki harjoitteluryhmät voimaharjoittelivat valvotusti kahdesti viikossa (H, n=81), jonka jälkeen ryhmät harjoittelivat kuusi kuukautta (3 kk–9 kk) nimensä mukaisesti kerran, kahdesti tai kolmesti viikossa. Koehenkilöille suoritettiin testit 0 kk, 3 kk ja 9 kk. Toimintakykyä testattiin etuperinkävelyllä (E), takaperinkävely…

How Do Young Adults Orchestrate Their Multiple Achievement-Related Goals? Associations of Achievement Goal Orientations With Identity Formation and G…

2016

Young adults strive for multiple achievement goals. Frameworks for achievement goal orientations, personal goals, and identity formation have emphasized the role of goal-specific exploration and commitment in the interpretation of goals. However, researchers have yet to combine these different perspectives in an empirical study. Therefore, to explore the processes involved in the selection of multiple goals, the present study investigated the associations of young adults’ achievement goal orientations (mastery-intrinsic, mastery-extrinsic, performance-approach, performance-avoidance, and work-avoidance orientations) with distinct styles of exploring and committing to goals, by considering d…

2021

AbstractFinding employment has been a challenge for young adults in recent years. This is not only due to high unemployment rates, but also because entering working life is more complicated than before. It is no longer just a question of credentials and skills. ‘Employability’ depends on investments in personal capacities: labour market demands in recruitment exceed the capacity of employees’ bodies and minds. This article asks what demands for increasing one’s employability young adults (aged 18–30) experience in relation to their education and working life and how they respond to these ideas, especially to the idea of modifying their minds and bodies—habitus—in order to increase their emp…
