Western Australian students' alcohol consumption and expenditure intentions for Schoolies.

2016

In Australia, the immediate post-school period (known as ‘Schoolies’) is associated with heavy drinking and high levels of alcohol-related harm. This study investigated students’ intended alcohol consumption during Schoolies to inform interventions to reduce alcohol-related harm among this group. An online survey was administered to students in their senior year of schooling. Included items related to intended daily alcohol consumption during Schoolies, amount of money intended to be spent on alcohol over the Schoolies period, and past drinking behaviour. On average, participants (n=187) anticipated that they would consume eight standard drinks per day, which is substantially higher than t…

Reconstructed Landscapes of Northern Youth : Reading the Autobiographies of Finnish Youth, 1945–1960

2021

This chapter explores how growing up environments and landscapes are remembered, described and depicted in autobiographies written by people who experienced the reconstruction era in northern Finland in their childhood and youth. The article is based on a collection of submissions to the essay called “Generations of Youth” in 2010 and archived in the Finnish Folklore Archives. The texts provide an interesting opportunity to investigate the cultural meanings attached to growing up environments, mindscapes, and places of childhood and youth in post-war Finland. The chapter combines approaches from the fields of history as well as humanistic geography. It addresses the question of how children…

Technology Architecture as a Driver for Business Cooperation: Case Study - Public Sector Cooperation in Finland

2019

The current premise in the enterprise architecture (EA) literature is that business architecture defines all other EA architecture layers; information architecture, information systems architecture, and technology architecture. In this paper, we will study the ICT-cooperation between eight small and mid-sized municipalities and cities in Southern Finland. Our case demonstrates that the ICT-cooperation is possible without business cooperation and that ICT-cooperation can be a driver for future business cooperation. The findings challenge the current premise of the guiding force of the business architecture and encourage organisations’ ICT-functions to seek daringly cooperation with other org…

Key Issues in Enterprise Architecture Adoption in the Public Sector

2018

This paper examines the challenges of enterprise architecture (EA) adoption in public sector organisations. So far, demonstrating the benefits of EA has appeared difficult in this context, and the results in transforming public sector remain modest: Both the penetration and the maturity of EA appear rather low. In the academia, however, the adoption of EA has gained less interest than the EA development and methodologies. Hence, there is a need for research on what are the challenges of EA adoption, and how to overcome them. This paper presents the results of an expert survey on the challenges of EA adoption in the Finnish public sector. The analysis of quantitative data, supported with a q…

Tulkotāja profesijas statuss Latvijā

2016

Līdz šim ir veikts neliels skaits pētījumu par tulkošanas nozari, kuros pētīti tulkotāja profesijas sociālie aspekti, lai novērtētu profesijas statusu Latvijas darba tirgū. Šī pētījuma mērķis ir iegūt vispārēju informāciju par tulkotāja profesijas statusu Latvijā un noskaidrot, kādi ir tulkotāja profesijas statusu ietekmējošie faktori. Pētījuma ietvaros divu mēnešu ilgā periodā tika veikta anketēšana, lai noskaidrotu, vai tulkotāja profesija ir zema statusa profesija, kāds ir profesijas prestižs un to, kādi faktori ir ietekmējuši respondentu viedokli par tulkotāja profesijas statusu. Pētījuma mērķauditorija bija Latvijā dzīvojošie tulkotāji (arī latviešu tulkotāji, kas dzīvo ārzemēs) tulkoš…
