A Gestalt music analysis : philosophical theory, method, and analysis of Iegor Reznikoff's compositions

2005

Jaana Utriainen on väitöskirjassaan luonut hahmofilosofisen musiikkianalyysiteorian ja –metodin GMAn (A Gestalt Music Analysis) ja soveltanut sitä ranskalaisen Iégor Reznikoffin neljään laulusävellykseen.- Etsin vastauksia väitteelle, jonka mukaan sävellyksistä on analysoitavissa ja tulkittavissa säveltäjän luova musiikillinen hahmoprosessi eli säveltäjän sisäinen musiikillinen hahmo. Lisäksi muodostin analyysimallin, jonka avulla musiikin hahmon laatu (Gestalt Quality) voidaan analysoida ja tulkita, Utriainen kertoo.Tutkimus kuuluu kognitiivisen musiikkitieteen, musiikin filosofian ja estetiikan tieteenaloihin. Monialaisen tutkimuksen päätuloksena on, että tutkimuksen väite: musiikin hahmo…

Depressive symptoms during adolescence: Do learning difficulties matter?

2011

To examine whether learning difficulties play a role in depressive symptoms, 658 Finnish adolescents were asked to complete scales for depression three times during the transition to post-comprehensive education. They also reported on their learning difficulties and feelings of inadequacy as a student. The results showed that learning difficulties prospectively predicted depressive symptoms. Moreover, the impact of learning difficulties was mediated via inadequacy as a student: learning difficulties predicted feelings of inadequacy as a student which, in turn, contributed to greater increases in depressive symptoms. Finally, gender moderated the association between learning difficulties an…

T9+HUD: Physical Keypad and HUD can Improve Driving Performance while Typing and Driving

2016

We introduce T9+HUD, a text entry method designed to decrease visual distraction while driving and typing. T9+HUD combines a physical 3x4 keypad on the steering wheel with a head-up-display (HUD) for projecting output on the windshield. Previous work suggests this may be a visually less demanding way to type while driving than the popular case which requires shifts of visual attention away from the road. We present a prototype design and report first results from a controlled evaluation in a driving simulator. While driving, the T9+HUD text entry rate was equal compared to a dashboard-mounted touchscreen device, but it reduced lane deviations by 70%. Furthermore, there was no significant di…

Interactive map interface for controlling bridge crane automation A cognitive-affective approach

2016

This study outlines the development process of a new touch screen based user interface for controlling bridge crane automation in industrial environments. A user study of existing situation (n1 = 11) was used to develop an understanding of the cognitive and emotional design goals for crane operation. Conceptualization of these goals in the context of automation produced a set of requirements, which were used to develop a map-based touch screen user interface. Two field tests (n2 = 5, n3 = 5) revealed how bridge crane operators cognise and emotionally experience the increasing automation and how the user interface should be designed to support the operator’s spatial mental representation as …

Sensory modalities and mental content in product experience

2015

Contemporary research in human-technology interaction emphasises the need to focus on what people experience when they interact with technological artefacts. Understanding how people experience products requires detailed investigation of how physical design properties are mentally represented, and the theorisation of how people represent information obtained through different modalities still needs work. The objective of this study is to investigate how people experience modality-related affective aspects of products, using the psychological concept of mental content. For this purpose, we adopt the framework of user psychology, which is the sub-area of psychology involved with investigating…

Emotional user experience and feeling of control

2015

Current research on emotional user experience lacks a clear exposition on the relationship between feeling of control and the emotion response. The appraisal theory of emotion posits that perceived control over an event is an important factor in determining the emotional response to the event. It is therefore hypothesised, that the relationship between emotional experiences and interaction events is mediated by feeling of control. In an experiment (N = 38), participants used a joystick to control game objects, and gave self-reports of their emotional states and feeling of control. Pathway analyses predicting the factors of emotional experience with event logs reveal that feeling of control …
