Operating leverage and the cost of debt in European agri-food firms
2020
Aim of study: To analyse the effect that operating leverage exerts on the cost of debt of agri-food firms in Europe, both in isolation and indirectly through its other risk factors.Area of study: We used panel data made up of 18,360 European firms from 2009 to 2016 (146,880 observations).Material and methods: The data were extracted from the ORBIS database and EUROSTAT. The econometric approach was estimated by the Generalized Method of Moments.Main results: The results obtained confirm that operating leverage or cost structure, in addition to affecting the cost of debt, also affects the relationship between that cost and other sources of risk. More specifically, indebtedness, size, specifi…
Enabling Settings for Learning : Observations Related to Design Communication
2020
The paper draws on two cases of learning settings that were converted to meet up-to-date educational requirements within these learning contexts. The authors address the role of stakeholder perspectives. Focusing on the learning situation, they present an articulation tool to aid dialogue between key stakeholder perspectives in a (re)design process. Dialogue is a way to figure out relevant issues and to establish the common ground between participants. The goal of a redesign process is that user requirements are well understood, and the design is embedded into local practices, informed of constraints and aware of potential opportunities regarding educational technology. peerReviewed
A Dialogical Exploration of Student Teacher Reflections: From Notions of Insideness and Outsideness to Pedagogical Alongsideness
2023
This article offers a dialogical exploration of student teachers’ reflections on notions of insideness and outsideness, the focal themes of an Erasmus+ ten-day intensive programme (IP). The arts-based, interdisciplinary IP involved 32 student participants and twelve members of staff from eight European universities hosted by the University of Jyväskylä, Finland. The data for this paper are based on the final written essays of student participants as they reflected on their understanding of outsideness and insideness at the end of the IP. The dialogic approach used in the analysis allows for a careful exploration of how the students attended to different experiences, surmised the meaning of …

La universidad de Franco y las propuestas de reconstrucción desde el exilio2
2021
La depuración de profesores universitarios en época franquista no acaba con la legislación, las delaciones, informes y testimonios. Está también la otra cara, la de los exiliados republicanos y sus propuestas de reconstrucción de la universidad, en su deseo de sentar las base para el futuro orden internacional. Este trabajo se centra en el caso concreto del penalista exiliado Mariano Ruiz-Funes, en el panorama de la universidad nacional-católica. La depuración, el exilio y la provisión de su cátedra vacante. Así como las propuestas desde el exilio en la Reunión de La Habana para la reconstrucción del país y en concreto de la Universidad.

Oral aphthous-like ulceration due to tiotropium bromide
2007
Unwanted side-effects of a drug therapy are well known to oral medicine specialists and other colleagues. Usually they manifest itself as dry mouth, taste disturbances, various allergic or toxic reactions on the lips and/or in the oral cavity. However, the list of the drugs which might induce unwanted reactions is everyday becoming longer as more and more drugs are introduced on the market. Certain problems when diagnosing and reporting unwanted side effects of the drugs exist as only accurate method of diagnosis is repeated drug use in controlled clinical setting where fatal consequences due to the anaphilactic shock could be avoided. We report a side effect reaction to tiotropium bromide …
Viestintäohjelma verkkosivuilla : korkeakoulun arvojen välittyminen nuorten sidosryhmälle
2011
Viestinnän strategisessa suunnittelussa määritellään peruslinjat, joiden avulla viestintä saadaan tukemaan organisaation strategisia tavoitteita. Kohderyhmien tiedostaminen ja tunteminen kuuluvat keskeisesti strategisen viestinnän suunnitteluun. Tämä tutkimus jakautuu kahteen osaan tavoitteidensa mukaisesti. Tutkimuksen ensimmäisenä tavoitteena on selvittää Seinäjoen ammattikorkeakoulun (SeAMK) viestintäohjelman strategian näkyminen ja noudattaminen organisaation omilla verkkosivuilla. Erityistarkastelussa on SeAMK:n arvot. Tätä tutkitaan verkkosivujen sisällönanalyysilla analyysikehikkoa apuna käyttäen. Tutkimuksen toisena tavoitteena on selvittää nuorten, 17–19-vuotiaiden, sidosryhmän mie…
Stakeholder dialogue and regional engagement in the context of higher education
2007
Helena Kantanen etsi tutkimuksessaan vastauksia siihen, miten yliopistot ovat onnistuneet luomaan ja kehittämään vuoropuhelua paikallisten sidosryhmiensä kanssa.- Yliopistot vasta opettelevat vuoropuhelua. Ikävä kyllä ne usein antavat kumppaneilleen vain mahdollisuuden kuunnella omaa monologiaan, Kantanen kuvaa. - Sidosryhmien edustajien kannalta on suuri ero siinä, osallistuuko dialogiin aktiivisena toimijana ja uutta luovana osapuolena vai yleisönä. Jos yliopisto todella haluaa hyödyntää sidosryhmiensä vankan tuen ja asiantuntemuksen, kumppaneilla pitää olla suurempi rooli kuin vain mahdollisuus sanoa sanottavansa muodon vuoksi, Kantanen korostaa. Tutkimuksen taustalla on 1990-luvulla Suo…
