Wissen, Verstehen, Glauben? Eine Fallstudie zur patientenzentrierten Kommunikation und partizipativen Entscheidungsfindung
2019
Zusammenfassung Patientenzentrierte Kommunikation und selbstbestimmte Entscheidungen gelten heutzutage als wichtige Aspekte der Arzt-Patienten-Beziehung. Im klinischen Alltag ist die Umsetzung dieser Konzepte jedoch immer wieder erschwert. In diesem Beitrag wird anhand eines Fallbeispiels diskutiert, worin die Grenzen der partizipativen Entscheidungsfindung bestehen und wieso das Vertrauen in die Handlungslogik der Institution insbesondere dann relevant wird, wenn es nur geringe Spielräume für eigene Entscheidungen gibt.
Being a good neighbour: developing intercultural understanding through critical dialogue between an Australian and Finnish cross-case study
2020
Language educators in Australia and Finland are expected to foster intercultural understanding within foreign language education.

The discussion addresses the value of different perspectives and the need for a new metaphor to conceptualise intercultu…
Advertising in disguise? How disclosure and content features influence the effects of native advertising
2020
Abstract Native advertising has recently become a prominent buzzword for advertisers and publishers alike. It describes advertising formats which closely adapt their form and style to the editorial environment they appear in, intending to hide the commercial character of these ads.

In addition, we explore persuasion through certain content features (i. e., message sidedness and use of exemplars) and how they affect disclosure effects. Results show that disclosures increase perceived persuasive intent but d…

Dealing with Culture in Schools: A Small-Step Approach Towards Anti-racism in Finland
2017
This chapter discusses anti-racism education by focusing on how culture is used in educational discourses in Finland. More and more studies highlight the pervasive use of culture as a substitute for race, urging scholars to explore how and why cultural claims are made relevant (Breidenbach and Nyiri 2009; Piller 2011). Culture is present in numerous subjects (e.g. religion, literature, history, languages) and anti-racism education should therefore be understood from a holistic perspective. This chapter focuses on the Finnish context which is relevant to examine for two main reasons. First, Finnish school system is globally represented as high quality. Second, the new national curriculum, wh…

Este artículo muestra cómo la música favorece el proceso comunicativo intercultural, al considerarse como la principal herramienta de trabajo…
Argumentative Knowledge Construction in Online Learning Environments in and across Different Cultures: A Collaboration Script Perspective

This article considers these issues and challenges specifically for online environments focusing on argumentative knowledge constructio…
