Orderly display of limb lead ECGs raises Chinese intern’s diagnostic accuracy when determining frontal plane QRS axis
2019
Background: There is limited information on whether the orderly display of limb lead ECGs (electrocardiograms) can facilitate students to determine frontal plane QRS complex wave electrical axis. Objectives: The study investigated whether the orderly display of limb lead ECGs can raise Chinese undergraduate intern’s diagnostic accuracy when determining frontal plane axis. Design: A total of 147 fifth-year undergraduate interns aged between 21 and 25 years were randomly arranged into 2 groups: one group was given classically displayed ECGs of limb leads while the other group was given orderly displayed ECGs of limb leads. They were then taught to determine frontal plane axis with one of the …
Education Leads to a More Physically Active Lifestyle : Evidence Based on Mendelian Randomization
2019
Physical inactivity is a major health risk worldwide. Observational studies suggest that higher education is positively related to physical activity, but it is not clear whether this relationship constitutes a causal effect. Using participants (N = 1651) drawn from the Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study linked to nationwide administrative data from Statistics Finland, this study examined whether educational attainment, measured by years of education, is related to adulthood physical activity in terms of overall physical activity, weekly hours of intensive activity, total steps per day, and aerobic steps per day. We employed ordinary least squares (OLS) models and extended the analysis…
Participation rates by educational levels have diverged during 25 years in Finnish health examination surveys
2018
Background Declining participation rates in health examination surveys may impair the representativeness of surveys and introduce bias into the comparison of results between population groups if participation rates differ between them. Changes in the characteristics of non-participants over time may also limit comparability with earlier surveys. Methods We studied the association of socio-economic position with participation, and its changes over the past 25 years. Occupational class and educational level are used as indicators of socio-economic position. Data from six cross-sectional FINRISK surveys conducted between 1987 and 2012 in Finland were linked to national administrative registers…
How to evaluate first aid skills after training: a systematic review
2022
Abstract Background To be able to help and save lives, laypersons are recommended to undergo first aid trainings. The aim of this review was to explore the variety of the elements of the measuring systems to assess the effects of first aid trainings on different aspects of first aid skills including practical skills, knowledge, and emotional perspectives. Methods This systematic literature review used Scopus and PubMed databases and searched for studies published between January, 2000, and December, 2020. Out of 2,162 studies meeting the search criteria, 15 studies with quantitative and repeatable evaluation methods to assess first aid skills after first aid training for adults were include…
Disparities in nutritional adequacy of diets between different socioeconomic groups of Finnish adults
2022
Information on dietary adequacy is needed to assess food and nutrition security in a modern society, especially in the transition towards climate-friendly food systems. In this study, differences in the nutritional adequacy of diets among Finnish adults were evaluated in population groups of different education, income and urbanisation levels. The study used data from the FinDiet 2017 Survey (n = 1655, 18–74 years). Modelled usual intakes of foods and nutrients were evaluated relative to food-based dietary guidelines issued by the National Nutrition Council of Finland (FNNC) and with respect to nutrient adequacy following the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations and FNNC. For about half of the …
Educational issues for sustainable development in Africa
2006
Educational systems in Africa during the colonial period focused on a school system that was based on the perspectives of the colonial rulers. Nearly half a century ago African leaders, after the independence granted to their countries, were expressing the high hopes of positive political and economic development in their countries. But alas, the development has been regressive. Today Africa is the only continent in the world that has become poorer in the past 25 years. There has been a gradual fall in the school enrolment rate in the African countries. Countries like Nigeria, according to a recent joint study by Nigeria’s National Planning Commission and the United Nations Children’s Fund …

Pro gradu -tutkielmassa tarkoituksena oli selvittää suomalaisen koulutusviennin tekijöitä Varalan Urheiluopiston koulutustoiminnan kansainvälisen suunnittelun tarpeisiin. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on asiantuntijoiden näkemysten avulla tukea päätavoitetta. Tämän tutkimuksen erityisenä käytännön tavoitteena oli tuottaa Varalalle askelmerkkejä kansainvälisen toiminnan suunnitteluun kehittämismenetelmän keinoin. Tutkimus on laadullinen tutkimus ja aineistonkeruumenetelmänä tutkimuksessa käytettiin puolistrukturoitua kyselylomaketta (N=8) sekä puolistrukturoitua yksilöhaastattelua (N=6). Kyselyyn vastanneet sekä haastateltavat valikoituivat instituutionaalisen asemansa perusteella. Laadullisen ain…

Nurmi Lapin yliopistosta sekä vt:nä virkaa hoitava Leena Ahteenmäki-Pelkonen Joensuun yliopistosta. Vastausjärjestys on arvottu.
Ajatuksia koulutusviennistä – mahdollisuudet ja riskit vaakakupissa
2015
Koulutusosaamisen viennistä tulee kehittää yksi Suomen tulevaisuuden tärkeimmistä vientituotteista. Näin kaavailtiin vuonna 2010 julkaistussa opetus- ja kulttuuriministeriön raportissa (OKM 2010). Suomessa ajatus koulutuksesta vientituotteena on suhteellisen tuore käsite ja kattaa laajan skaalan erilaisia koulutusosaamisen viennin muotoja. Monissa muissa maissa, etenkin Australiassa, Isossa-Britanniassa sekä Yhdysvalloissa, koulutuksella on tehty kauppaa yli rajojen jo vuosikymmeniä. Koulutuksen suurimmat vientimaat ovat luonnollisesti englanninkielisiä maita, joiden koulutusosaamisella on kysyntää yli rajojen, ja joissa tutkintomaksut ovat arkipäivää. Usein näissä maissa väestörakenteen mu…
