Retirement as a predictor of physical functioning trajectories among older businessmen
2022
Abstract Background Associations between retirement characteristics and consequent physical functioning (PF) are poorly understood, particularly in higher socioeconomic groups, where postponing retirement has had both positive and negative implications for PF. Methods Multiple assessments of PF, the first of which at the mean age of 73.3 years, were performed on 1709 men who were retired business executives and managers, using the RAND-36/SF-36 instrument, between 2000 and 2010. Questionnaire data on retirement age and type of pension was gathered in 2000. Five distinct PF trajectories were created using latent growth mixture modelling. Mortality- and covariate-adjusted multinomial regressi…
Effects of a 12‐month home‐based exercise program on functioning after hip fracture – Secondary analyses of an RCT
2022
Background Long-term functional limitations are common after hip fractures. Exercise may alleviate these negative consequences but there is no consensus on an optimal training program. The objective was to study the effects of a 12-month home-based supervised, progressive exercise program on functioning, physical performance, and physical activity. Methods Secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial targeting patients with surgical repair of a hip fracture, aged >= 60 years, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of >= 12. The participants were randomized into Exercise (n = 61) or Usual care (n = 60). Assessments at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months included Lawton's Instrumental Ac…
Assessment of construct validity of the Finnish versions of the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand Instrument and the Michigan Hand Outcomes Ques…
2020
Abstract Study Design Cross-sectional study. Introduction There is a lack of information on the measurement properties of patient-reported upper extremity instruments and their association to health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Purpose of the Study This study aimed to examine and compare the measurement properties and construct validity of the Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) Instrument and the Michigan Hand Questionnaire (MHQ) using a heterogeneous sample of patients with hand and wrist problems. Methods Two hundred fifty consecutive patients visiting a general orthopedic outpatient clinic due to various hand/wrist problems were invited to participate in the study. A tota…
Cohort Differences in Maximal Physical Performance: A Comparison of 75- and 80-Year-Old Men and Women Born 28 Years Apart
2020
Abstract Background Whether increased life expectancy is accompanied by increased functional capacity in older people at specific ages is unclear. We compared similar validated measures of maximal physical performance in 2 population-based older cohorts born and assessed 28 years apart. Method Participants in the first cohort were born in 1910 and 1914 and were assessed at age 75 and 80 years, respectively (N = 500, participation rate 77%). Participants in the second cohort were born in 1938 or 1939 and 1942 or 1943 and were assessed at age 75 and 80 years, respectively (N = 726, participation rate 40%). Participants were recruited using a population register and all community-dwelling pers…
Personality traits and physical functioning : a cross-sectional multimethod facet-level analysis
2020
Background This study aimed to investigate whether personality traits and their facets are associated with a multi-methods assessment of physical activity and walking performance and whether they explain the discrepancy between self-reported and accelerometer-assessed physical activity. Methods The participants were community-dwelling, 70–85-year-old men and women from Finland (n = 239) who were part of a clinical trial. Personality traits and their facets were measured using the 240-item NEO Personality Inventory-3. Physical activity was assessed using questions about frequency, intensity and duration of exercise (self-reported metabolic equivalent minutes (MET)) and by tri-axial accelerom…
Move! -fyysisen toimintakyvyn seurantajärjestelmä : testistön validiteetti ja reliabiliteetti

Liikuntaa opettavien opettajien ja kouluterveydenhoitajien yhteistyö oppilaiden toimintakyvyn edistämisessä ja Move!-järjestelmän hyödyntämisessä
2022
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on tutkia liikuntaa opettavien opettajien ja kouluterveydenhoitajien käsityksiä moniammatillisesta yhteistyöstä toimintakyvyn edistämiseen ja Move!-mittauksiin liittyen. Kummatkin toimijat ovat keskeisiä oppilaiden toimintakyvyn edistämisessä sekä perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelmaan sisältyvän Move!-järjestelmän hyödyntämisessä. Tutkimus toteutettiin kyselytutkimuksena erikseen kouluterveydenhoitajille (N=192) ja liikuntaa opettaville opettajille (N=359). Määrällisten kysymysten analysoinnissa hyödynnettiin t-testiä sekä yksisuuntaista varianssianalyysiä ja laadullisen aineiston analyysissä teoriaohjaavaa sisällönanalyysiä. Tulosten mukaan korkeintaan noin puo…
Murtumatta mukana - lujuutta liikkumalla : liikuntaryhmiin osallistumisen yhteys ryhmäläisten fyysiseen aktiivisuuteen, fyysiseen toimintakykyyn ja t…
2016
Tarkoitus: Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää, onko Murtumatta mukana – lujuutta liikkumalla – vertaiskoulutettujen ohjaajien ohjaamiin vertaisliikuntaryhmiin osallistumisella yhteyttä ryhmäläisten fyysiseen aktiivisuuteen, fyysiseen toimintakykyyn ja tasapainoon. Menetelmät: Tutkimusasetelma oli havainnoiva poikkileikkausasetelma. Eläkeliiton osoittamat vertaisohjaajat Jyväskylän ja Lapuan alueella tiedottivat tutkimuksesta ja jakoivat kysely-lomakkeita tutkimuksesta kiinnostuneille vertaisliikuntaryhmäläisille. Tutkimuskyselyitä pa-lautui 100 kpl, joista muodostettiin 6kk liikuntaryhmässä mukana olleiden (N=57) ryhmät. Lisäksi vapaaehtoisille halukkaille (N=62) tehtiin tasapain…
Reliable clinical assessment of stroke patients' postural control and development of physiotherapy in stroke rehabilitation
2007
The main goal of the long-standing clinical research project in the district of East-Savo was to develop an active role in physiotherapy for patients with stroke. A novel assessment instrument, the Postural Control and Balance for Stroke (PCBS) test, was developed side by side with the activating treatment. Present physiotherapy for stroke patients the emphasis is on the physiotherapist’s role, leaving no room for independent participation by the patient. In clinical work there are no systematically used methods either for the evaluation or follow-up of functional capacity, or for balance in stroke patients. This thesis includes reliability and validity studies of the Postural Control and B…
