Multilevel Latent Profile Analysis With Covariates : Identifying Job Characteristics Profiles in Hierarchical Data as an Example

2018

Latent profile analysis (LPA) is a person-centered method commonly used in organizational research to identify homogeneous subpopulations of employees within a heterogeneous population. However, in the case of nested data structures, such as employees nested in work departments, multilevel techniques are needed. Multilevel LPA (MLPA) enables adequate modeling of subpopulations in hierarchical data sets. MLPA enables investigation of variability in the proportions of Level 1 profiles across Level 2 units, and of Level 2 latent classes based on the proportions of Level 1 latent profiles and Level 1 ratings, and the extent to which covariates drawn from the different hierarchical levels of the…

Deadlock in corporate governance: Finding a common strategy for private telephone companies, 1978–1998

2017

This paper looks at how a group of small, incumbent private telephone companies complied with the international convergence of market structures. The existing research has mainly focused on large national incumbents, assuming a transition to multinational enterprise. This development process is often associated with privatisation policies and various institutional factors. The article tests these assumptions using a case study of the network of Finnish local telephone companies. It looks at the development of an interfirm network, its perspectives on the different phases of the deregulation process, and how the network tried to regenerate itself but failed to form a unified corporate struct…

Gravitational-Wave Astronomy: Modelling, detection, and data analysis

2017

La detección directa de la primera señal de ondas gravitatorias, el 14 de Septiembre de 2015, puede considerarse uno de los mayores hitos científicos de todos los tiempos. No solo porque supone la confirmación de la última de las predicciones de la Teoría de la Relatividad General de Albert Einstein, sino porque anticipa una autentica revolución en el campo de las astrofísica, comparable a la producida con la invención del telescopio por Galileo Galilei en 1609. Este descubrimiento ha inaugurado un nuevo tipo de astronomía, la astronomía de ondas gravitatorias. Se abre así una nueva ventana al universo que permitirá el estudio de procesos físicos producidos en regiones no accesibles al espe…

Tracking oneself for others: communal and self-motivational value of sharing exercise data online

2021

Self-tracking is increasingly popular in recreational sport. Leisure sports practitioners use wearable devices that are connected to online platforms to record, analyse, and share their exercise data. While doing that they interact with a digital system, with themselves, and with peers. This paper examines social-communicative aspects of self-tracking, and the support that these aspects and their associated practices may provide for physical activity behaviour. Data for the study was collected using an online survey and in-depth interviews with Finnish trail runners. The results indicate that sharing exercise data with others on a regular basis can support physical activity behaviour becaus…

Developing an open science mindset.

2022

Background: Identification of widespread biases present in reported research findings in many scientific disciplines, including psychology, such as failures to replicate and the likely extensive application of questionable research practices, has raised serious concerns over the reliability and trustworthiness of scientific research. This has led to the development of, and advocacy for, ‘open science’ practices, including data, materials, analysis, and output sharing, pre-registration of study predictions and analysis plans, and increased access to published research findings. Implementation of such practices has been enthusiastic in some quarters, but literacy in, and adoption of, these pr…

Open sourcing digital heritage : digital surrogates, museums and knowledge management in the age of open networks

2012

I study the emergence of traditional online activities of the museums and their fears in the vivid and multifaceted Internet and how the open Internet is setting out to compete with museums. The second main topic of this work is the role of technology in the openness of digital heritage. Technology is always present when dealing with digital heritage, and understanding the technical framework is essential when evaluating, for example, long-term preservation issues or accessibility. I used three different kinds of sources in my study: literary, case studies and application development. First, I have read studies that are related to digital heritage: museology literature, museum informatics l…
