Does health literacy explain regional health disparities among adolescents in Finland?
2021
Health literacy (HL)—as a broad range of health-related competencies—has been proposed to be a promising construct in understanding health disparities better, also among adolescents. Several factors have been found to explain differences in adolescents’ HL levels; however, not much is known about how different regions of a country or majority/minority status is associated with HL, or whether HL is associated with regional health disparities. The aim of this study was to examine and compare HL and health levels among majority- and minority-language-speaking adolescents living in different regions of Finland, and to explore if HL explains regional health disparities, taking into account other…

Maksetut henkilöverot alueittain ja ikäryhmittäin Suomessa 2000-2018
2021
Tarkastelemme henkilöverotuksen kehitystä 2000-luvulla eri maakunnissa ja ikäryhmissä. Nuorimmat (alle 40-vuotiaiden) ikäluokat ovat jääneet vanhempien työikäisten ikäluokkien (yli 40-vuotiaiden) vero- ja siis myös tulokehityksestä jälkeen. Kokonaisuudessaan henkilöverokertymä on kasvanut noin 25 %, ja maakuntien väliset erot ovat vähentyneet merkittävästi vuosina 2000–2018. Nykyisen ajankohtaisen veroproblematiikan kannalta havaittu maakuntien myönteinen kehitys helpottaa maakuntapohjaisen sote-mallin rahoitusta. nonPeerReviewed

Family related variables effect on later educational outcome: a further geospatial analysis on TIMSS 2015 Finland
2020
AbstractFamily-related factors, like parent’s educational level, their values and expectations have a significant impact on child’s early skills and later educational outcomes. Further, parents provide their child, alongside with other learning environments, a broad mathematical and early literacy input. This study investigates the relationship between family-related socio-economic and other factors like, parental education, amount of books at home, parental attitudes towards mathematics and science, parental perception of child’s early skills and student’s later academic achievement. This is studied in the light of the Finnish data collected for Trends in International Mathematics and Scie…
Regional concentration of university graduates : The role of high school grades and parental background
2020
In this paper, we analyse long-term changes in the regional distribution and migration flows of university graduates in Finland and Sweden. This study is based on detailed longitudinal population register data, including information on high school grades and parental background. We find a distinct pattern of skill divergence across regions in both countries over the last 3 decades. The uneven distribution of human capital has been reinforced by the mobility patterns of university graduates, for whom regional sorting by high school grades and parental background is evident. Our findings indicate that traditional measures of human capital concentration most likely underscore actual regional …
