"Make him worship you" : the representation of feminine sexuality and female discourses in Seventeen and Cosmopolitan
2017
Medialla on keskeinen rooli mielikuvien ja ajatusten välittäjänä. Naistenlehdet ovat vakiintuneet keskeiseksi osaksi nykypäivän mediakenttää, ja niiden edullisuus sekä laaja levinneisyys ovat herättäneet myös tutkijoiden mielenkiinnon. Monet heistä ovat pyrkineet selvittämään millaisia representaatiota naistenlehdet tarjoavat lukijoilleen. Erityisesti seksuaalisuuden kuvaaminen lehdissä on noussut tärkeäksi osaksi tutkimuskenttää, sillä aiheeseen liittyvän sisällön määrä on viime vuosikymmeninä lisääntynyt monissa naisille suunnatuissa julkaisuissa. Lehtien representaatioilla on merkittävä rooli naisten seksuaalisuutta koskevien käsitysten välittäjänä sekä näiden käsitysten muokkaajana. Täm…
Sad, lonely and looking for love? : representations of singleness on Cosmopolitan.com
2016
Yhdysvaltalaisessa yhteiskunnassa arvostetaan suuresti avioliittoa ja parisuhdetta, jonka ajatellaan olevan elämän tärkein ihmissuhde. Vaikka yksineläjien määrä on viimeisten vuosikymmenien aikana ollut kasvussa, asenteet yksineläjiä ja yksineläjyyttä kohtaan ovat silti usein negatiivisia ja kyseenalaistamattomia. Niihin liittyvät negatiiviset stereotypiat heijastuvat mediarepresentaatioissa. Se, miten media puhuu yksineläjyydestä ja parisuhteista vaikuttaa ihmisten ajatusmaailmoihin sekä olemassa oleviin diskursiivisiin resursseihin, joiden avulla yksineläjät voivat käsitellä elämäänsä ja rakentaa identiteettiään. Tämä tutkielma tarkastelee yksineläjyyden representaatioita nuorille naisill…
What drives increases in hindsight impressions after the reception of biased media content?
2021
Prior research has shown that reading biased media content (e.g., Wikipedia articles) can increase recipients' hindsight bias. It remained unclear, however, which features of the biased texts led to such an increase. We examined this question in a longitudinal experimental study (N = 190). Specifically, we tested whether repeated exposure to already known information (H₁), a more coherent presentation of the information (H₂), or the presentation of novel information (H₃) affected readers' hindsight impressions of likelihood, inevitability, and foreseeability. To this end, participants initially learned about an event by reading several short news, and, 1 week later, received one of several …
(De)legitimating electronic surveillance : a critical discourse analysis of the Finnish news coverage of the Edward Snowden revelations
2017
In 2013, ex-National Security Agency (NSA) contractor Edward Snowden shocked the world by revealing the American NSA’s (and its partners’) extensive surveillance programs. The ensuing media discussion became a focal point for the justification and contestation of surveillance in the digital age. This article contributes to the growing body of literature on the discursive construction of surveillance, concentrating on how the practice is (de)legitimized. Methodologically, the paper draws on Critical Discourse Studies, applying the concept of discourse and utilizing insights from Van Leeuwen’s categories of legitimation and social actor representation. The data come from the media coverage of…

Representational flexibility in children's drawings: Effects of age and verbal instructions
1999
This study aims to investigate representational and syntactical flexibility in children's drawing behaviour, and the extent to which changes introduced at both representational and syntactical levels are related to age or can be induced by contextual manipulations. A Deletion task required three age groups of 5-, 7- and 9-year-old children to draw objects that had been rendered partially invisible, thanks to magic transformations. Two different verbal instructions about what was to remain visible in the objects, and two different objects, one regularly and one non-regularly drawn, were designed to investigate contextual sensitivity in children's representational and syntactical behaviour re…

Los modelos de género discursivo en la planificación y revisión de una reseña de lectura
2018
En este trabajo se analiza la incidencia de los modelos de género discursivo en la planificación y revisión de la escritura desde una intervención educativa cuyo diseño sigue el modelo de secuencias didácticas para aprender a escribir. La secuencia diseñada tenía como objetivo que alumnos de 3º ESO elaboraran una reseña de lectura y para ello ofrecía diferentes modelos de este género. El análisis de los datos del proceso (textos intermedios e interacciones) y del producto (textos elaborados por los alumnos) permite vincular el uso de modelos de género, las operaciones de planificación y revisión y la apropiación de los estereotipos (representaciones mentales arraigadas en una dimensión soci…
