Developmental pathways of language development : a longitudinal predictive study from prelinguistic stage to outcome at school entry
2017
This research focused on the pathways of development during the prelinguistic stage and from prelinguistic development to later language ability. The first goal was to follow and describe the development of several prelinguistic communication skills during the first two years of life (Studies I and II). The second goal was to examine the predictive relations between this development and language ability and difficulties, as well as memory, up to school age (Studies I, II, and III). The third goal evaluated the feasibility of parental screening in identifying children at risk for language and communication difficulties (Studies I, II, and III). Prelinguistic skills were followed with a paren…
SingleChannelNet : A model for automatic sleep stage classification with raw single-channel EEG
2022
In diagnosing sleep disorders, sleep stage classification is a very essential yet time-consuming process. Various existing state-of-the-art approaches rely on hand-crafted features and multi-modality polysomnography (PSG) data, where prior knowledge is compulsory and high computation cost can be expected. Besides, it is a big challenge to handle the task with raw single-channel electroencephalogram (EEG). To overcome these shortcomings, this paper proposes an end-to-end framework with a deep neural network, namely SingleChannelNet, for automatic sleep stage classification based on raw single-channel EEG. The proposed model utilizes a 90s epoch as the textual input and employs two multi-conv…
Cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for insomnia among shift workers: RCT in an occupational health setting
2019
Abstract Introduction The aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for insomnia (CBT-I) to that of a sleep hygiene intervention in a randomized controlled design among shift workers. We also studied whether the features of shift work disorder (SWD) affected the results. Methods A total of 83 shift workers with insomnia disorder were partially randomized into a group-based CBT-I, self-help CBT-I, or sleep hygiene control intervention. The outcomes were assessed before and after the interventions and at 6-month follow-up using questionnaires, a sleep diary, and actigraphy. Results Perceived severity of insomnia, sleep-related dysfunction…
Advanced performance monitoring for self-healing cellular mobile networks
2015
This dissertation is devoted to development and validation of advanced per- formance monitoring system for existing and future cellular mobile networks. Knowledge mining techniques are employed for analysis of user specific logs, collected with Minimization of Drive Tests (MDT) functionality. Ever increas- ing quality requirements, expansion of the mobile networks and their extend- ing heterogeneity, call for effective automatic means of performance monitoring. Nowadays, network operation is mostly controlled manually through aggregated key performance indicators and statistical profiles. These methods are are not able to fully address the dynamism and complexity of modern mobile networks. Se…
Social-Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties in Children with Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Emotion Perception in Daily Life and in a Formal Assessm…
2022
AbstractChildren with neurodevelopmental disorders often have social-emotional and behavioural difficulties. The present study explored these difficulties in children (n = 50, aged 6–10 years) with autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and developmental language disorder. Parents, teachers and therapists evaluated children’s social-emotional and behavioural difficulties through a self-devised questionnaire and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. Additionally, the children, along with their typically developing age peers (n = 106), completed six emotion discrimination tasks. Analysis revealed some impaired emotion discrimination skills that were predict…

Mä en ymmärtäny niitä pallukoita : lukihäiriö pianonsoiton opiskelussa
2010
Erilaisten oppijoiden asemasta musiikkioppilaitoksissa on keskustelu vasta viime aikoina. Oppimateriaalia tai tutkimustietoa soittajien kokemuksista on kuitenkin vähän. Suomalainen musiikkioppilaitosjärjestelmä on koko maan kattava ja sen piirissä opiskelee tuhansia nuoria eri puolilla maata. Lukivaikeuksia arvellaan olevan noin kahdellakymmenellä prosentilla lukemista opettelevista lapsista, joten heitä on luultavasti soittamista harrastavissa lapsissa ja nuorissa enemmän kuin olemme osanneet ajatella. Tässä tutkimuksessa tuon näkyville lukihäiriöisen pianonsoittajan kokemuksia samalla kun käsittelen lukihäiriötä ilmiönä. Tutkimukseni oli tapaustutkimuksen ja toimintatutkimuksen yhdistelmä…
Bodily obsessions : intrusiveness of organs in somatic obsessive–compulsive disorder
2022
AbstractIn this paper, I will provide a phenomenological analysis of somatic obsessions at times present in obsessive–compulsive disorder. I will compare two different types of bodily obsessions, which have a different neurological-physiological underpinning: anguishing awareness of one’s own heartbeat and of one’s own breathing. In addition, I will contrast these two with how one experiences one’s own liver. I will use the concepts "tactility obsessions” and "motility obsessions”, which I have coined for the purpose of this comparison. In other words, these are obsessions concerning the felt sense of one’s autonomous organs and obsessions concerning one’s ability to voluntarily move. Ultim…
