Comparison of inter-trial recovery times for the determination of critical power and W' in cycling
2017
Critical Power (CP) and W’ are often determined using multi-day testing protocols. To investigate this cumbersome testing method, the purpose of this study was to compare the differences between the conventional use of a 24-h inter-trial recovery time with those of 3 h and 30 min for the determination of CP and W’. Methods: 9 moderately trained cyclists performed an incremental test to exhaustion to establish the power output associated with the maximum oxygen uptake (p V O2max), and 3 protocols requiring time-to-exhaustion trials at a constant work-rate performed at 80%, 100% and 105% of p VO2max. Design: Protocol A utilised 24-h inter-trial recovery (CP24/W’24), protocol B utilised 3-h in…
Vammaisuus ja hyvinvointi : ekososiaalinen lähestymistapa terveyden edistämiseen
2010
Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli kuvata vammaispalvelujen asiakaskuntaa. Tutkimuksessani halusin selvittää, miten vammaispalveluissa sosiaalityön keinoin voidaan edistää hyvinvointia ja terveyttä. Koska tutkimuksessani oli ekososiaalinen lähestymistapa terveyden edistämiseen, halusin tarkastella, mitä terveyden edistäminen eri tahoilta vielä vaatii aineistojen tulosten pohjalta. Tutkimusaineistot muodostuivat asiakaskyselystä, johon vastasi 552 henkilöä sekä neljän kainuulaisen sosiaalityöntekijän/ luottamushenkilön teemahaastattelusta. Asiakaskysely postitettiin Kainuussa Vammaispalvelulain mukaista vaikeavammaisten kuljetuspalvelua saaville henkilöille. Asiakaskysely oli tutkimuksen kvantita…
When more is less: The other side of artificial intelligence recommendation
2022
Based on consumers' preferences, AI (artificial intelligence) recommendation automatically filters information, which provokes scholars' debate. Supporters believe that by analyzing the consumers' preferences, AI recommendation enables consumers to choose products more quickly and with lower cost. Critics deem that consumers are more easily trapped in information cocoons because of the use of AI recommendation. This reduces the possibility of consumers contacting with a variety of commodities, thus lowering the consumer decision quality. Based on experiments, this paper discusses the moderating role of AI recommendation on the relationship of consumers' preferences and information cocoons. …
