Exploring Associations of Housing, Relocation, and Active and Healthy Aging in Sweden : Protocol for a Prospective Longitudinal Mixed Methods Study

2021

Background: While housing and neighborhood features have the potential to impact opportunities for active aging, there is a lack of knowledge related to how older people reason regarding their housing situation and how housing and fulfillment of relocation are associated with active and healthy aging. Objective: The objectives of Prospective RELOC-AGE are to study housing choices and relocation and explore effects on active and healthy aging among men and women aged 55 years and older in Sweden considering relocation. Methods: The estimated sample (2800) will include people aged 55 years and older being listed for relocation at either of two housing companies: a local public housing company…

Musiikin merkitys arkipäivän esteettisessä kokemuksessa : kannettavan musiikkilaitteen käyttökokemuksia

2015

Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää millainen merkitys musiikilla on arkipäivän esteettisessä kokemuksessa. Pyrin hahmottamaan musiikin ja arkipäivän esteettisen kokemuksen välistä suhdetta tarkastelemalla kannettavan musiikkilaitteen käyttökokemuksia arjessa. Arkipäivän estetiikka on melko uusi estetiikan tutkimuksen näkökulma, jonka eroavaisuuksia perinteisempiin estetiikan teorioihin on haastava rajata. Avaan tutkielmassani arkipäivän estetiikan sekä arkipäivän esteettisen kokemuksen käsitteitä, ja pyrin osoittamaan erilaisia tapoja miten arjessa kuunneltu musiikki voi olla osa kyseistä ilmiötä. Metodeina käytän sekä lähdekirjallisuuteen ja keskeisiin teorioihin tutustumisen lisä…

Barriers to open e-learning in public administrations

2017

The use of Open Educational Resources (OERs) is promising as a complementary resource to traditional e-learning courses. Digital learning resources can be accessed on demand and can be developed by a wide range of employees. Thus, OERs may be suitable as a response to the changing demands of workplace learning. Despite its potential, the uptake of OER is slow. Previous research has found numerous barriers to the use and sharing of OERs, ranging from cultural to technical and organizational challenges. Research has reported barrier concepts, which elaborate on the kinds and meanings of challenges in the educational and private sector domain. Yet, it remains unclear as to why and how barriers…

Do factors related to participation in physical activity change following restrictive bariatric surgery? A qualitative study

2018

Aims To explore participants’ ability to participate in physical activity (PA), and barriers and facilitators to PA, at 12 months following restrictive bariatric surgery, and how these differed from participants’ pre-surgery perceptions. Motivators for PA post-surgery were also explored. Methods Qualitative one-on-one in-depth interviews were conducted pre- and 12 months post-surgery. Data were analysed using inductive thematic analysis. Results Fourteen adults (12 females), with a mean (range) age of 41.4 years (25.0–56.0), body mass index (BMI) of 31.7 kg/m2 (22.3–48.2), and excess weight loss of 66% (2–127) completed both interviews. Lack of participation in PA during the first 3–6 month…

Lauri Kontkanen (2017). Kontiolahtelaisten nuorten toiveet kunnan liikuntapaikoista ja - palveluista. Liikuntapedagogiikan pro gradu -tutkielma. Liikuntatieteellinen tiedekunta. Jyväskylän yliopisto, 68 s, 1 liite. Tausta. Pro gradu -tutkielman tavoitteena oli tutkia nuorten liikuntapaikka ja -palvelutoiveita Kontiolahdella. Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin, mitkä ovat nuorten eniten harrastamat liikuntalajit, ja missä liikuntaseuroissa he liikkuivat. Lisäksi tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin liikunnan harrastamisen esteitä. Tutkimukseni on jatkoa syksyllä 2013 valmistuneelle Kontiolahden liikuntapaikkasuunnitelmalle, jonka sain kunnalta tehtäväksi. Tässä tutkimuksessa on tarkoitus syventää tietoa last…

Barriers to Data-Driven Decision-Making Among Online Retailers

2022

This study investigates the barriers to data-driven decision-making among online retailers. The study seeks to deepen the previous knowledge by considering data-driven decision-making as a process and identifying the critical obstacles within its different (6) stages. Qualitative interview data (N=10) collected from Finnish e-commerce professionals are analyzed. The findings show that barriers to data-driven decision-making occur at all stages during the decision-making process. The barriers are mostly related to the employees’ and the management’s expertise in collecting, organizing, analyzing, summarizing, synthesizing, and prioritizing data. In addition, attitudinal, technical, and strat…

Global social knowledge management: from barriers to the selection of social tools

2013

Web 2.0 and Social Software revolutionize the knowledge exchange within and between organizations. This is one of the claims consultants and software vendors in the field have made. But have the promises been kept and has evidence been achieved so far, in particular for knowledge management in globally distributed settings? As a starting point, our paper introduces the field of Global Social Knowledge Management (GSKM). We see this area as one of the main research area for future research in the Knowledge Management domain. A variety of social software applications have already been seen promising and incorporated into the context of knowledge management (Avram 2006; Zheng and Zheng 2010; L…

What hampers green product innovation: the effect of experience

2019

Based on representative firm-level survey data for Austria, Germany, and Switzerland, this study systematically analyzes the relevance and drivers of barriers to green product innovation using the example of green energy technologies. “Low willingness to pay”, “high development costs”, “high commercial uncertainty”, and “lack of favorable political framework” are identified as the most important barriers. Moreover, we find that the firms’ innovation experience is an important driver of the level of green innovation barriers. Green innovation barriers are more accentuated for firms with green innovation activity than for firms with no green innovation activity. However, experience from diffe…
