"Joku on oikeasti elänyt täällä" : Keski-Suomen museon käsityöläiskodit menneen ajan representaationa
2011
Pro gradu -tutkielmani aihe on menneisyyden representoiminen museotoiminnassa. Esimerkkinä museaalisesta representaatiosta tarkastelen Keski-Suomen museon käsityöläiskotimuseota (1956) ja niihin rakennettua näyttelyä 1950- ja 60-luvuilla. Käytän sanoja representoida ja esittää samassa merkityksessä. Tutkimusongelmani pääkysymys kuuluu: millainen näyttely Keski-Suomen museon käsityöläiskotimuseoon rakennettiin ensimmäisen siirron jälkeen ja mitä käsityöläiskotimuseon näyttely esitti? Vaikka representaatio-käsite on tutkimukseni keskeinen osa, en tee kuitenkaan representaatiotutkimusta. Tarkastelen käsityöläiskotinäyttelyä kulttuurisena ja taiteellisena luomuksena, joka on ihmisen tekemä, jon…
Ultra-High Energy Neutrinos at the Pierre Auger Observatory
2013
The observation of ultrahigh energy neutrinos (UHE nu s) has become a priority in experimental astroparticle physics. UHE nu s can be detected with a variety of techniques. In particular, neutrinos can interact in the atmosphere (downward-going nu) or in the Earth crust (Earth-skimming nu), producing air showers that can be observed with arrays of detectors at the ground. With the surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory we can detect these types of cascades. The distinguishing signature for neutrino events is the presence of very inclined showers produced close to the ground (i.e., after having traversed a large amount of atmosphere). In this work we review the procedure and …
Supportive Communication in the Workplace
2019
Supportive communication is a form of social interaction that produces resources with which to solve situational problems and manage emotional strain. Through the management of uncertainty, supportive communication enhances the perception of personal control over life events and strengthens the perception of acceptance. It is enacted in the seeking of support, in providing support, and in supportive listening as a form of emotional and informational support. In the workplace, supportive communication is crucially important: It promotes productive work and employees’ well-being as well as job satisfaction and engagement in the organization. This chapter presents the foundations of supportive…
Football match attendance in Finland
2022
Football fans prefer to see their favourite team win in close matches. Compared to other forms of entertainment, the outcome of sport game is unknown beforehand. Opera audience knows the plot in advance, but in football the winner is revealed only after 90 minutes. The scientific literature of modern sport economics demand theory implies that successful leagues must be based on relatively even competition. This degree of parity within a league is labelled as competitive balance. Sport leagues usually claim that outcome uncertainty is necessary to maintain interest among fans. In this paper, uncertainty of outcome hypothesis is tested applying football data from the highest tier in Finnish m…

The Promise and Deception of Participation in Welfare Services for Unemployed Young People
2018
This study examined the role of welfare services in the participative citizenship of young people under 30 years of age outside the labour market. Thematic content analysis of the government’s white papers regarding participation policies, as well as participatory action research projects in two Finnish towns, were used to identify factors that enable or hinder participation for this group of service users. The paradigm of participation was critically examined with reference to the theoretical framework of Max Horkheimer and Theodor Adorno’s “dialectic of Enlightenment”, which proposes the parallel existence of the promise and the deception of Enlightenment. The results indicated that user …
Exploring dark creativity: the role of power in an unethical marketing task
2020
Creativity is seen as a significant driver for successful marketing activities. However, little attention is paid to its shady side and little research on the prerequisites for unethical behaviour of marketing experts and executives is on hand. In our experimental study, we examine the mutual influence of power, honesty-humility, and benevolent creativity as predictors for ‘dark creativity’ (the use of creative ideas for malevolent actions). Participants (N = 387) were randomly assigned to a high vs. low power condition (role of marketing director vs. marketing intern). Dark creativity was correlated to benevolent creativity, power motive, and honesty-humility, but did not depend on the pow…
Randomoitu kontrolloitu tutkimus keski-ikäisten miesten unettomuudesta
2014
Unettomuus on yleinen ongelma, jonka hoito on kansaterveydellisesti erittäin tärkeää. Koska unettomuuden yleisimmällä hoitokeinolla lääkityksellä on paljon haitallisia sivuvaikutuksia, on tärkeää tutkia unettomuuden vaihtoehtoisia hoitokeinoja. Tämän Pro Gradu -tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää kestävyysliikunnan vaikutusta unen laatuun ja määrään keski-ikäisillä unettomuudesta kärsivillä miehillä. Satunnaistetussa kontrolloidussa tutkimuksessa 42 vähän liikkuvaa vapaaehtoista 30–65-vuotiasta unettomuudesta kärsivää miestä Keski-Suomen sairaanhoitopiiristä (keski-ikä 51 [1.6] vuotta) jaettiin liikunta- ja kontrolliryhmään. Liikuntaryhmäläiset noudattivat yksilölli-sesti suunniteltua pro…
