Viestintävälineiden käytön ja kasvokkaisviestinnän yhtäaikaisuus
2016
Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastellaan viestintävälineiden käytön ja kasvokkaisviestinnän yhtäaikaisuutta kirjallisuuskatsauksen avulla. Tavoitteena on selvittää ja analysoida, mitä aiheesta ajankohtaisen tutkimustiedon valossa tiedetään. Katsausaineisto on koottu systemaattisen kirjallisuuskatsauksen menetelmin elektronisista tietokannoista. Aineisto koostuu kahdestatoista kansainvälisestä, vertaisarvioiduista artikkelista sekä yhdestä väitöskirjasta. Kirjallisuuskatsauksen tuloksia on tarkasteltu tässä tutkielmassa myös teoreettisista näkökulmista. Tutkielman tuloksista voidaan havaita, että viestintävälineiden käytön ja kasvokkasviestinnän yhtäaikaisuus on osa multitaskingin ilmiötä. Käsiteana…
Language ideologies in the Romanian Banat : analysis of interviews and academic writings among the Hungarians and Germans
2009
This is an introduction to a compilation of six articles on language ideologies in the Romanian Banat. My dissertation was initiated by fieldwork in the area, resulting to a database of interviews among the Hungarian and German inhabitants. This data is compared to intellectual writings. With regards to researcher position, I identify myself as a traveler in the area and as a foreign scholar. The analytical framework of this study draws from the study of Language Ideologies and Conversation Analysis.Here, language ideologies are broadly defined as metalinguistic discourse or talk about language. In the analysis of interviews, conversation analysis is used, in order to analyze the emergent c…
A Customer Perspective on Omnichannel Customer Journey and Channel Usage : A Qualitative Study
2022
This qualitative study investigates customer behavior during the omnichannel customer journey. The study aims to increase the understanding of omnichannel service environments from a customer-centric point of view. The data was collected by interviewing 10 young adults (from 26 to 30 years old) who had bought a Finnish clothing brand (R-Collection) product via a digital or a physical channel. The research interviews dealt with the interviewees' experiences and channel behavior during their shopping journeys. Our results reflect the multidimensional nature of the omnichannel customer journey and give interesting insights into the usage of digital channels and technologies for clothing shoppi…
Multimodaaliset resurssit viittomakielisten oppilaiden suomen kielen tunnilla : neksusanalyyttinen tutkimus
2016
Tutkin maisterintutkielmassani välityskeinoja ja multimodaalisuutta erään kuurojenkoulun 6–9-luokkalaisten viittomakielisten suomi toisena kielenä -oppitunneilla. Ensikieleltään viittomakielisille oppilaille suomen kieli on ensimmäinen kirjoitettu kieli, joten sen merkitys heidän elämässään on suuri, ja suomen kielen hallinta vaikuttaa moneen elämän osa-alueeseen. Tutkimuskysymyksissäni kysyn, mitä resursseja eli välityskeinoja suomi toisena kielenä -oppitunneilla on käytössä. Analysoin erityisesti, mitä välityskeinoja on käytössä taulutyöskentelyn toiminnossa, jossa opettaja on luokan etuosassa ja johtaa opetustilannetta taulun läheltä samalla, kun oppilaat istuvat pulpeteissaan. Pohdin my…
Multimodal Aposematic Signals and Their Emerging Role in Mate Attraction
2018
Chemically defended animals often display conspicuous color patterns that predators learn to associate with their unprofitability and subsequently avoid. Such animals (i.e., aposematic), deter predators by stimulating their visual and chemical sensory channels. Hence, aposematism is considered to be “multimodal.” The evolution of warning signals (and to a lesser degree their accompanying chemical defenses) is fundamentally linked to natural selection by predators. Lately, however, increasing evidence also points to a role of sexual selection shaping warning signal evolution. One of the species in which this has been shown is the wood tiger moth, Arctia plantaginis, which we here put forward…

Few-body insights of multiquark exotic hadrons
2018
In this contribution we discuss the adequate treatment of the $4-$ and $5-$body dynamics within a constituent quark framework. We stress that the variational and Born-Oppenheimer approximations give energies rather close to the exact ones, while the diquark approximation might be rather misleading. Hall-Post inequalities provide very useful lower bounds that exclude possible stable states for some mass ratios and color wave functions.
Ginger and Turmeric Essential Oils for Weed Control and Food Crop Protection
2019
Ginger and turmeric are two food ingredients that are in high demand due to their flavor and positive effects on health. The biological properties of these spices are closely related to the aromatic compounds they contain. The chemical compositions of their essential oils and their in vitro phytotoxic activity against weeds (Portulaca oleracea, Lolium multiflorum, Echinochloa crus-galli, Cortaderia selloana, and Nicotiana glauca) and food crops (tomato, cucumber, and rice) were studied. Forty-one compounds, accounting for a relative peak area of 87.7% and 94.6% of turmeric and ginger essential oils, respectively, were identified by Gas Chromatography&ndash
Inspiratory Muscle Strength and Cardiorespiratory Fitness Association With Health-Related Quality of Life in Healthy Older Adults
2021
The main purpose of this study was to explore similarities and differences in the association between two capabilities affecting the cardiorespiratory system (overall and multifactorial cardiorespiratory fitness and inspiratory muscle strength) and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL), in a group of active healthy seniors. Sixty-five individuals (age, 73.01 ± 5.27 years; 53 women) who participated regularly in a multicomponent training program completed the EuroQol 5D-5L questionnaire, the 6-min walking test (6MWT), and the maximum inspiratory pressure test (MIP). Non-parametric correlations (Spearman's rho) were conducted to analyze the association between HRQoL indices (EQindex and …
Built Environment and Wellbeing—Standards, Multi-Criteria Evaluation Methods, Certifications
2022
The debate on IEQ (Indoor Environmental Quality), with a focus on the healthiness of the built environment and its possible influence on the natural environment, has been a relevant topic for a decade. This interest has expanded to the quality of building technologies, specifically their performances and environmental effects. The objectives set by the 2030 Agenda have led to overcome the idea that sustainability is only related to environment; instead, a holistic vision aimed at human health has been affirmed (objective 3). The period marked by the Covid19 emergency contributed to strengthen the need for human well-being, as the “quarantine” made us observe our living spaces, r…
