Passing the test of motherhood? Self‐esteem development and birth experience in the transition to motherhood : A longitudinal mixed methods study in …
2022
Aims To investigate women's childbirth experiences and their relation to self-esteem development in the postpartum year. Design A mixed methods study. Methods Women (N = 125) completed survey questionnaires regarding their self-esteem and childbirth experiences at three time points in 2020–2021: third trimester of pregnancy (T1), 4–8 weeks postpartum (T2) and 1 year postpartum (T3). The survey results were analysed using qualitative thematic and quantitative path analyses with latent change factors. The open-ended answers of the women who demonstrated a change in self-esteem between T2 and T3 were then compared. The STROBE checklist was used as the reporting guideline. Results The quantitat…
Videoblogi tekstilajina
2017
Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on kartoittaa videoblogia ilmiönä sekä selvittää, millaiset piirteet videoblogille ovat tyypillisiä ja millaisia vuorovaikutussuhteita videoblogissa luodaan. Aihe on ajankohtainen ja relevantti, koska videoblogi sosiaalisen median formaattina kasvattaa suosiotaan koko ajan, mutta suosiostaan huolimatta sitä on tutkittu erittäin vähän. Tutkimusongelmaa lähestytään seuraavilla kysymyksillä: 1) Millainen on videoblogin tekstilaji? ja 2) Millaisilla kielellisillä ja visuaalisilla keinoilla videoblogissa rakennetaan vuorovaikutussuhteita? Tutkimuksen aineistona on 15 suomenkielistä, Youtube-videopalveluun ladattua videoblogia. Aineisto on kerätty kolmelta (3) suomalaiselt…
Business model scaling and growth hacking in digital entrepreneurship
2023
Creating an innovative product and validating an innovative business model may not be enough for digital startups to be competitive. To grow fast and expand globally, digital startups need to innovate their business model during the scaling phase. A pragmatic approach has recently been proposed to support digital entrepreneurs engaging in business-model innovation during the scaling phase (i.e., business-model scaling), a strategy known as growth hacking. However, we know little about its theoretical grounding and how effective growth hacking is, as businesses lack methodologies to assess its effectiveness before committing resources and investments. To fill this gap, we developed a method …

Information Integration, Coordination Failures, and Quality of Prescribing
2020
Poor information flows hamper coordination, potentially leading to suboptimal decisions in health care. We examine the effects of a nationwide policy of information integration on the quality of prescribing. We use the rollout of an electronic prescribing system in Finland and prescription-level administrative data. We find no effect on the probability of co-prescribing harmful drug combinations in urban regions. In rural regions, this probability reduces substantially, by 35 percent. The effect is driven by prescriptions from unspecialized physicians and from multiple physicians. Improving the local information environment thus enhances coordination and narrows differences in the quality o…

Sākumskolas skolotāju mediju pratības un tās pilnveides izpēte izglītības digitalizācijas kontekstā
2018
Izglītības digitalizācijas kontekstā skolotāju mediju pratība kļūst arvien nozīmīgāka. Izglītība mūsdienu lietpratībai paredz, ka skolēniem būs pietiekami augsti attīstīta digitālā caurviju prasme. Lai palīdzētu skolēniem attīstīt un pilnveidot digitālās kompetences, skolotājiem pašiem jābūt ar augstu mediju pratības un digitālās kompetences līmeni. Sākumizglītības posmā skolēniem tiek veidotas pamata prasmes, tāpēc maģistra darba mērķis ir noskaidrot sākumskolas skolotāju mediju kompetenci un tās pilnveides iespējas. Analizējot normatīvos dokumentus, tika noskaidrots, ka šobrīd Latvija un Eiropas Savienība iegulda daudz līdzekļu izglītības digitalizācijā. Izpētot teorētisko literatūru un v…
How many longitudinal covariate measurements are needed for risk prediction?
2014
Abstract Objective In epidemiologic follow-up studies, many key covariates, such as smoking, use of medication, blood pressure, and cholesterol, are time varying. Because of practical and financial limitations, time-varying covariates cannot be measured continuously, but only at certain prespecified time points. We study how the number of these longitudinal measurements can be chosen cost-efficiently by evaluating the usefulness of the measurements for risk prediction. Study Design and Setting The usefulness is addressed by measuring the improvement in model discrimination between models using different amounts of longitudinal information. We use simulated follow-up data and the data from t…
Towards a scenario of virtual mental health environments for school-aged children
2017
This study explores student teachers’ future design scenarios focusing on promoting children’s mental health literacy through virtual reality (VR) environments. VR use is on the verge of many breakthroughs in several areas of lived experience. One such area pertains to educational contexts. Student teachers were chosen as the subjects of this study due to the likelihood that they will be the primary users and disseminators of these emerging technologies in educational contexts. The students created five types of future scenarios that contained different environments and activity modes, including those that are still not yet feasible to realize with current technological capabilities. The ai…
Role of Acquisition Intervals in Private and Public Cloud Storage Costs
2014
The volume of worldwide digital content has increased nine-fold within the last five years, and this immense growth is predicted to continue in the foreseeable future to reach 8 ZB by 2015. Traditionally, organizations proactively have built and managed their private storage facilities to cope with the growing demand for storage capacity. Recently, many organizations have instead welcomed the alternative of outsourcing their storage needs to the providers of public cloud storage services due to the proliferation of public cloud infrastructure offerings. The comparative cost-efficiency of these two alternatives depends on a number of factors, such as the prices of the public and private stor…
