Different ways to organize the processes of financial administration : a field study of medium-sized Finnish companies

2011

Decentralization, centralization and outsourcing are options that are available to different-sized companies. The study was executed as a field study in seven medium-sized Finnish companies that represent different branches. Furthermore, the research method was qualitative theme interview. As large companies have already established their financial service centers and small enterprises have outsourced their financial administration to bookkeeping agencies, medium-sized companies are located between the two, finding a way that is suitable for their strate…

Viskositeetin mittaaminen pietsosähköherätteisellä värähtelijällä

2010

Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa käsitellään nesteen viskositeetin ominaisuuksia ja erityisesti pietsosähköherätteisiin komponentteihin perustuvia tapoja mitata nesteen viskositeettia sähköisesti. Motivaationa tutkielman tekoon oli löytää menetelmä, jolla voidaan mitata nesteiden viskositeettia luotettavasti. Nesteiden viskositeetti aiheuttaa värähtelijöihin sähköisen vastuksen, jolloin taajuuden, impedanssin ja vaihekulman resonanssiarvoja tarkastelemalla voidaan viskositeettia mitata. Teoriaosuudessa keskityttiin viskositeetin ominaisuuksien lisäksi suorakaiteen muotoisen palkin, CMBP, värähtelydynamiikkaan värähtelevä pallo -mallin ja simulaatiotulosten avulla. Kokeellisessa osiossa tutkitt…

Katsomustietoisuus voimavarana

2020

Kulttuuriseen ja katsomukselliseen moninaisuuteen liittyvää osaamista on kasvatuksen kentillä lähestytty eri käsitteiden kautta ja eri näkökulmista, esimerkiksi inter-kulttuurinen sensitiivisyys ja katsomuksellinen sensitiivisyys, kulttuurinen lukutaito ja uskonto-/katsomuslukutaito sekä kulttuurinen ja katsomuksellinen vastuullisuus (esimerkiksi Gay 2010; Räsänen ym. 2018). Erilaiset tulokulmat vastaavat samaan kysymykseen: kuinka kohdata moninaisuus myönteisellä tavalla ja nähdä se voimavarana? Tässä artikkelissa tarkastelemme uskontojen ja katsomusten moninaisuuden kohtaamiseen liittyviä valmiuksia kasvatuksen kontekstissa, erityisesti katsomustietoisuuden näkökulmasta. nonPeerReviewed

Music Piracy Neutralization and the Youth of the 2010's

2014

In this qualitative research, music piracy among the youth was studied by applying Sykes’ and Matza’s neutralization theory. The key objective of the study was to find out how youths view music piracy, and how they give accounts for it using techniques of neutralization. According to the conducted semi-structured interviews, youths do acknowledge the ethical and economic problems of music piracy. However, piracy is still exercised, and in order to justify this, multiple neutralization techniques are used. The most characteristic of the employed techniques was “claim of normalcy”, with “denial of victim” and “justification by comparison” also appearing frequently. In order to prevent piracy,…

Dissonance and Neutralization of Subscription Streaming Era Digital Music Piracy : An Initial Exploration

2016

Both legal and illegal forms of digital music consumption continue to evolve with wider adoption of subscription streaming services. With this paper, we aim to extend theory on digital music piracy by showing that the rising controversy and diminishing acceptance of illegal forms of consumption call for new theoretical components and interactions. We introduce a model that integrates insights from neutralization and cognitive dissonance theories. As an initial empirical test of the proposed Dissonance-Neutralization model, we estimate a structural equation model based on self-administered survey data obtained from 322 respondents. Our results uncover potential demographic differences in pir…

Pedagogical Purposes of Narratives in Worldview Education : Teachers' Conceptions

2019

This study explores teachers’ pedagogical purposes for using narratives in Finnish religious and worldview education. The article stems from a philosophical and pedagogical view on narrative cognition as a fundamental element of worldview education. Teachers work as interpreters of the cultural stock of stories, including culturally fundamental religious narratives, and convert it into a pedagogical tool for identity work. The research data consists of interviews with primary school class teachers (N=6) about using narratives in the context of worldview education. Using qualitative content analysis as a research method, four main categories were identified. Teachers used the narratives: (1)…

Kunnon muslimi ja kunnon kansalainen : turkkilaisten imaamisaarnaajalukioiden oppikirjojen ilmentämän maailmankatsomuksen analyysi

2017

This qualitative study aims to analyse the worldview that emerges in the textbooks of Turkish imam and preacher high schools (úmam hatip lisesi). The study material consists of eight textbooks that belong to the vocational religious education of Turkish imams. All of the textbooks were published around 2010. In this study, theoretical considerations regarding the essence of worldview (Weltanschauung) are summarized into an existential model of worldview (EKMA). The model provides two viewpoints from which to understand the worldview under study. The first viewpoint concentrates on understanding the worldview’s belief structure and the content of those beliefs. The second viewpoint examines …
