Longitudinal associations between adolescent behaviour problems and perceived family relationships
2010
AbstractThe goal of the present study was to examine the longitudinal associations between perceived family relationships and adolescents’ externalizing/ internalizing problems. The study sample included 366 pupils from secondary schools in Latvia, 12-14 years of age, who completed self-report questionnaires. Data were collected in two assessments 1 year apart. The results indicate that elevations in adolescent problem behavior prospectively predicted subsequent decreases in perceived family cohesion and increases in family conflict. The effect of perceived family cohesion and conflict as assessed at Time1 was not statistically significant in prediction of Time2 adolescent behaviour problem…
American family culture of the mid- 20th century : Gender roles, marriage and child-parent relationship as portrayed in fact and fiction
2009
J.D. Salingerin romaania The Catcher in the Rye on kutsuttu amerikkalaiseksi klassikkoteokseksi. Sitä on opiskeltu kouluissa kautta Amerikan ja myös muualla maailmalla, mutta samalla myös haastettu oikeuteen ja estetty sen käyttö opetuksessa. Tätä ristiriitaista teosta ja sen kirjailijaa on tutkittu ja niistä on kirjoitettu paljon. Tässä tutkimuksessa mielenkiinnon kohteena oli romaanin välittämä kuva 1900-luvun puolivälin amerikkalaisesta perhekulttuurista, jota ei ilmeisesti juurikaan ole aiemmin tutkittu. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli ennen kaikkea selvittää kuinka romaani esittää sukupuoliroolit avioliiton sisällä, itse avioliittoinstituution sekä lasten ja vanhempien väliset suhteet t…
Instytucja zaprzeczenia ojcostwa - między teorią a praktyką w prawie polskim
2019
Artykuł powstał z uwagi na przypadki spraw o zaprzeczenie ojcostwa, z jakimi autorka miała styczność w dotychczasowej pracy w kancelarii prawnej. Czas na wytoczenie przez mężczyznę powództwa o zaprzeczenie ojcostwa lub o ustalenie bezskuteczności uznania ojcostwa jest krótki i wynosi 6 miesięcy. Ponadto po jego upłynięciu jedyną możliwością z perspektywy ojca jest wytoczenie powództwa przez prokuratora, który de facto nie musi się przychylić do wniosku mężczyzny i może odmówić tej czynności. Jednak w żadnym z tych przypadków ustalenie więzów biologicznych między ojcem a dzieckiem nie jest jeszcze przesądzone. Jeśli matka dziecka wyraża zgodę na badania DNA, które jednoznacznie wykluczają oj…
Playing Roles in Work and Family: Effects of Work/Family Conflicts on Job and Life Satisfaction Among Junior High School Teachers
2021
Junior high school teachers play an essential role in education. How to relieve the worries of teachers, that is, the pressure they face in the fields of work and family, has increasingly become an urgent problem. Based on the COR theory, this study aims to investigate the effects of two types of work/family conflicts (i.e., work-family conflict and family-work conflict) on teachers’ job and life satisfaction. We adopted a handy sample method and collected a total of 560 junior high school teachers data. The results confirmed that both work-family and family-work conflicts are not significantly related to junior high school teachers’ job satisfaction and life satisfaction directly. However,…
"I use it correctly!": The use of ICTs among Italian grandmothers in a generational perspective
2018
In this project, we investigated the role played by digital media and information and communication technologies (ICTs) in building intergenerational and intragenerational relations for grandparents. Specifically, we investigated the possible relationships between grandmothers, children, and grandchildren, with the aim of understanding the dynamics of intergenerational exchanges and how grandmothers experience the use of the Internet as a tool to facilitate communication with family members. The research shows that the reflections regarding the role of the Internet among elderly people are often linked to a generational identity and generational belonging and involve constant comparison wit…
Refamilisation in the broadband society – the effects of ICTs on family solidarity in Finland
2021
In this article we explore the effects that new information and communication technologies (ICTs) have on family relations in Finland. The idea of ‘new connectivities’ works as a starting point for the study directing attention to ICT-mediated forms of being together with distant family members. The research data consists of 22 student reports encompassing a total of 133 informants from extended Finnish families. Extended group interview (EGI) technique was developed and used for data collection in order to grasp the underlying social practices and values behind the use of ICTs in extended families. The results show that new ICTs, especially mobile social media, enhance family solidarity am…
Znaczenie rodziny w życiu skazanych poszkodowanych - opinie, oceny i potrzeby
2020
The questions addressed in the present paper concern the family relations of persons deprived of freedom who – remaining in the prison environment – have been degraded, that is convicts occupying the lowest rung in the informal penitentiary system, so-called victimized prisoners. They make a specific community, rejected and humiliated by other inmates. The necessity to ensure safety to them and help them protect their personal characteristics generates difficulties in activities of rehabilitative character. The aim of the research was to show the family relations of people degraded in the prison environment – a subject that has not been studied to date. The method of diagnostic survey was u…
Exploring heterogeneous ICT use among older adults: The warm experts’ perspective
2020
In this article, we (1) examine the various forms of support required by older users (75+) of digital technology and (2) provide a concrete, everyday life rationale for why warm experts play such a pivotal role in the processes of adopting and using ICT. Although warm experts are usually not older adults themselves, they provide an important mediating view on the technology use among older people that has not been rigorously addressed in previous studies. Thus, in our analysis we examine the younger family members’ views on acting as warm experts to their older family members. The research data consist of 22 extended group interviews (EGI) and observation carried out in Finland. Based on ou…

Exploiting Data Analytics and Deep Learning Systems to Support Pavement Maintenance Decisions
2021
Road networks are critical infrastructures within any region and it is imperative to maintain their conditions for safe and effective movement of goods and services. Road Management, therefore, plays a key role to ensure consistent efficient operation. However, significant resources are required to perform necessary maintenance activities to achieve and maintain high levels of service. Pavement maintenance can typically be very expensive and decisions are needed concerning planning and prioritizing interventions. Data are key towards enabling adequate maintenance planning but in many instances, there is limited available information especially in small or under-resourced urban road authorit…
