Vanhuus ilman vallankaappausta : etnografinen tapaustutkimus tanskalaisesta vanhainkodista
2013
Suomen sekä muiden EU-maiden haasteena on ikääntyvä väestökanta ja sen mukanaan tuomat vanhusten hoivaan liittyvät kysymykset. Eliniän nousu on johtanut ikärakenteen muuttumiseen; työikäisen väestön määrä vähenee ja ikäihmisten määrä kasvaa. Sosiaa-lialan ammattialaisena olen seurannut aiheesta käytyä keskustelua eri maissa. Suomessa tämän haasteen ratkaisemiseen liittyviä keskusteluita käydään paljolti taloudellisesta näkö-kulmasta. Huomioni kiinnittyi Tanskaan, jossa vanhustenhoivaan vaaditaan elämänlaatua. Tanskalaisessa vanhustyön tutkimuksessa ja lainsäädännössä elämänlaatu nähdään tärkeä-nä asiana. Tutkimukseni tavoitteena oli tutkia etnografian avulla, mistä asioista elämänlaatu koos…
Labour Market Demands, Employability and Authenticity
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…
Meeting the WHO 24-h guidelines among 2–6-year-old children by family socioeconomic status before and during the COVID-19 pandemic : a repeated cross…
2023
Background The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed guidelines for 24-h physical activity (PA), sedentary behaviour and sleep for young children. Lower socioeconomic status (SES) has been linked to a lower likelihood of meeting these guidelines. The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) raised concerns about young children’s opportunities to meet the guidelines. The study focused on the prevalence of meeting the WHO’s 24-h guidelines on screen time (ST), PA and sleep among 2–6-year-old children, in association with family SES, before COVID-19 outbreak in 2019, and during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021 in Finland. Methods Data were collected at three timepoints by an o…
Grit og fysisk aktivitet : Utviklingen av grit ved endring av fysisk aktivitetsnivå blant norske ungdommer: En to-års oppfølgingsstudie
2017
Masteroppgave folkehelsevitenskap ME516 - Universitetet i Agder 2017 The purpose of the study was to investigate the development of grit due to changes in physical activity in Norwegian youth. In addition, the study wanted to investigate differences in grit based on school type (age) and gender. This longitudinal study is part of a larger project called "The Relevance of Physical Activity Contexts in the Daily Life of Adolescents" (REPAC). The study is based on data from two time points (2014 and 2016). The sample consisted of students from Oslo/Akershus, Østfold and Agder. 1658 (54.4% from first measurement point) students were included in the study. To investigate grit and physical activi…
Enterprise Architecture : A Perspective on How Far We Have Come, and Directions for the Future
2019
Enterprise Architecture (EA) appears to retain the attention of both practitioners and researchers, as the technological complexity of organizations grows. Several researchers have noted that research on EA has been diversifying over time, leading to inconsistent use of terminologies. Further, the benefit claims and other results, rather frequently, are not based on empirical evidence. These shortfalls in research on EA impede EA from maturing as a discipline and from demonstrating its benefit claims. Although there are reasons to believe that the research on EA has progressed, the extent of the progress and the directions for future research are not evident. This study draws on a meta-revi…
Cadmium Metal–Organic Frameworks Based on Ditopic Triazamacrocyclic Linkers: Unusual Structural Features and Selective CO 2 Capture
2017
International audience; Two three-dimensional cadmium metal organic frameworks with general formula [Cd-2(L-1)(H2O)(3)](NO3)(0.7)(HCOO)(0.2)Br-0.1 (Cd2L1, L-1 = 1,4,7-tris(4-carboxybenzy1)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and Cd(HL2)(H2O)(2) (CdL2, L-2 = 1,4,7-tris(3-(4-benzoate)prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1,4,7-triazacydononane) based on 1,4,7-triazacyclononane N-functionalized by different arylcarboxylic acids were prepared under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis and porosity measurements. The crystal structure of Cd2L1 reveals a cationic net with a bcs topology,. and nodes are constituted by dinuclear cadmium complexes, in which each cadmium atom adopts a hexacoordin…

Education for all : the hazard within fragile states
2012
Currently, over a third of children not in school live in countries considered being as fragile. These countries, which are mainly located in sub-Saharan Africa, will not reach the objectives of Education For All for 2015. This thesis covers approaches across comparative education, political science and sociology of organizations. It explores empirically the condi¬tions of achievement of EFA within the contexts of fragility. Despite its ambiguities, the notion of fragile states was adopted in 2005 as an operational concept by most of aid agencies. Definitions of fragile state converge on a set of specific criteria (dysfunctional institutions, chronic socio-political instability, limited acc…
