Identifying the Sales Patterns of Online Stores with Self-Organising Maps on Time Series Data
2018
Electronic commerce, especially in the business-to-consumer (B2C) context, has for years been a popular research topic in information systems (IS). However, the prior research on the topic has traditionally been dominated by the consumer focus instead of the business focus of online stores. For example, whereas various segmentations exist for online consumers based on their purchase behaviour, no such segmentations have been developed for online stores based on their sales patterns. In this study, our objective is to address this gap in prior research by identifying the most typical sales patterns of online stores operating in the B2C context. By using self-organising maps (SOM) to analyse …
The Effects of General and Mobile Online Shopping Skilfulness and Multichannel Self-Efficacy on Consumer Showrooming Behaviour
2022
Although showrooming behaviour is a characteristic aspect of modern omnichannel retailing, our understanding of its antecedents remains limited. In this study, we aim to address this gap in prior research by examining how showrooming behaviour is affected by three different kinds of perceived consumer capabilities: general online shopping skilfulness, mobile online shopping skilfulness, and multichannel self-efficacy. The examination is done by utilising data from 1,024 Finnish consumers, which was collected with an online survey in 2021 and is analysed with structural equation modelling (SEM). In summary, we find mobile online shopping skilfulness to have a strong positive effect on showro…
Finnish Classroom Teacher Students' Experiences of an Online Music Course During The COVID pandemic
2022
When studying music, skills are often practised with a teacher, face-to-face, in a classroom. What are the experiences of classroom teacher trainees when music teaching becomes asynchronous, i.e., an individually completed online course? This question, among other things, was explored at a Finnish University's Teacher Education Department in autumn 2020, resulting in the production of a two-credit online music course on the Moodle learning environment. It was implemented for the first time during the summer term in 2021. The students’ experiences with the functionality of the e-learning module were analysed through data-driven content analysis. The study represents an intensive case study u…

La verrerie médiévale issue des fouilles du chœur de l'ancienne abbatiale Saint-Pierre de Baume-les-Messieurs (Jura)
2013
National audience; Dans le cadre du Programme Collectif de Recherche sur Les monastères en Europe occidentale (Ve-Xe siècle). Topographie et structures des premiers établissements en Franche-Comté et en Bourgogne, codirigé par Sébastien Bully et Christian Sapin (UMR ARTeHIS 6298, Cnrs), l'ancienne abbatiale Saint-Pierre à Baume-les-Messieurs (Jura) a fait l'objet d'une fouille programmée de novembre 2011 à janvier 2012. Suite à une série de campagnes d'archéologie du bâti, de sondages et de prospections géophysiques engagés depuis 2007, la question des origines du monastère et de la nature des occupations antérieures à l'église romane a motivé l'ouverture d'une fouille dans le chœur de l'éd…
Lomme, rue du Grand But (Nord) : rapport de diagnostic
2010
Le projet d'aménagement a occasionné un diagnostic archéologique sur une surface avoisinant les 7 hectares. Au sein des 173 structures relevées au cours de cette opération, deux occupations se distinguent : une première datée des débuts du second âge du Fer (La Tène ancienne) et une seconde datée du IIe s. de notre ère. La plus ancienne a été identifiée par la présence de mobilier piègé dans des trous de poteau. Si la nature domestique de cette occupation est avérée, son extension sur l'emprise diagnostiquée reste problèmatique à définir. L'habitat rural gallo-romain a laissé une empreinte sur la quasi totalité de la parcelle. Les éléments significatifs se concentrent sur une surface de 2 h…
L'image de la Belgique dans les sites Internet finlandais
2014
Belgia on tuttu Suomessa pääkaupungistaan Brysselistä, jossa sijaitsee EU:n päämaja. Belgia on kuitenkin paljon muutakin, ja siellä mm. gastronomia-, arkkitehtuuri-, historia- ja luontomatkailu kehittyy koko maassa. Näitä tar-kastellaan näillä Belgian imagoa käsittelevillä suomenkielisillä verkkosivuilla. Miten Belgiaa kuvaillaan? Onko kuvaus monipuolinen, puutteellinen, positiivinen, täsmällinen? Tämän tutkielman korpuksena on käytetty neljää suomenkielistä verkkosivustoa. Yksi niistä on matkatoimisto CWT Kaleva Travelin sivusto. Toinen on Otavamedia Oy:n omistama Ellit.fi, ns. ”lifestyle”-sivusto. Kolmas on portaalityyppinen verkkopalvelu Napsu.fi, ja neljäs on matkailusivusto Rantapallo.…
Accounting in Identity Regulation : Producing the Appropriate Worker
2021
It is acknowledged that identity regulation in organizations relies on discursive resources. This study moves beyond discourse – illustrating how discourse and accounting measurements are mobilized together in revising identity. Measurement produces persistence, clarity, transparency and comparability, as well as direction: Accounting’s quantitative knowledge ‘amplifies’ discourse. We explain the Great Alliance between words and numbers in a case study addressing events in an organization’s transformation. This extends our understanding of what takes place on the interface between identity and accounting. peerReviewed
