The Slow Adoption Rate of Software Robotics in Accounting and Payroll Services and the Role of Resistance to Change in Innovation-Decision Process

2022

Robotic process automation (RPA) has by now for years been viewed as a disruptive innovation that will have a significant impact on accounting, HR and payroll services, and yet the rate of adopting the innovation has not reached a level anticipated in past predictions. As several elements have a negative impact on the organization’s rate of adopting RPA, passive resistance to change has a significant impact in the form of constant dithering. Resistance to change can emerge at any stage of the Innovation-Decision process and fluctuate throughout the continued adoption, causing wasted investments, capabilities and resources. peerReviewed

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…

Reasons for qualitative psychologists to share human data

2021

ARTICLE PUBLISHED (OPEN ACCESS) IN BRITISH JOURNAL OF SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY. Qualitative data sharing practices in psychology have not developed as rapidly as those in parallel quantitative domains. This is often explained by numerous epistemological, ethical, and pragmatic issues concerning qualitative data types. In this essay, I provide an alternative to the frequently expressed (often reasonable) concerns regarding the sharing of qualitative human data by highlighting three advantages of qualitative data sharing. I argue that sharing qualitative human data is not by default “less ethical,” “riskier,” and “impractical” compared to quantitative data sharing, but in some cases more ethical, le…

Mutusta dataan : big datan ja analytiikan hyödyntäminen yhdeksän suomalaisen suuryrityksen henkilöstötoiminnoissa

2016

Datan määrä kasvaa jatkuvasti ja dataa analysoimalla yritysten on mahdollista saavuttaa liiketoiminnallisia hyötyjä. Myös yritysten henkilöstötoiminnoilla on hallussaan paljon arvokasta dataa, mutta ne kykenevät hyödyntämään sitä vain harvoin päätöksenteossaan. Historiallisesti henkilöstötoiminnossa päätöksenteko on pitkälti perustunut tunteisiin, henkilökohtaisiin kokemuksiin ja yrityksissä vallinneisiin uskomuksiin. Eri sidosryhmät ovat kuitenkin alkaneet asettaa yhä enemmän paineita yritysten kyvylle osoittaa numeerisesti henkilöstöstrategioidensa vaikuttavuutta ja kykyä tukea liiketoiminnan päätöksentekoa. Henkilöstötoiminto on ollut pitkään eri muutosvoimien kohteena ja sen rooli yrity…

A new approach to stress of conscience's dimensionality : Hindrance and violation stressors and their role in experiencing burnout and turnover inten…

2023

Aims To identify a valid, longitudinally invariant factor model for stress of conscience and to investigate how stress of conscience dimensions associate with burnout and turnover intentions. Background There has been a lack of consensus about the number and content of stress of conscience dimensions, and a lack of longitudinal studies on its development and outcomes. Design A longitudinal, person-centred survey study using the STROBE checklist. Methods Healthcare personnel (n = 306) rated their stress of conscience in 2019 and 2021. Longitudinal latent profile analysis was used to identify different subgroups based on the employees' experiences. These subgroups were then compared in terms …

Psychophysical burden and lack of support : Reasons for care workers’ intentions to leave their work in the Nordic countries

2021

Long-term care of older adults is currently suffering from a shortage of trained personnel and high turnover rates. Care work is poorly paid, demanding, increasingly time-bound and both mentally and physically burdensome. In this study, we examined the individual, organisational and economic factors that predict professional care workers’ intentions to leave their current employment, using the NORDCARE survey data (2015, N = 3801) collected in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. The respondents were mainly practical and assistant nurses. The analysis showed that the predictors of intentions to leave were similar in the four countries. The most consistent organisational predictors of leavin…

Organisational and individual resources as antecedents of older nursing professionals’ organisational commitment : Investigating the mediating effect…

2021

Aim and objectives To investigate how organisational and individual resources are linked to older (50+) nursing professionals’ organisational commitment, and to examine the possible mediating role of the active use of selection, optimisation and compensation (SOC) strategies. Background Many healthcare organisations need to find ways to retain their older nursing professionals due to nursing shortage. Design To test a set of hypotheses, cross-sectional survey data (n = 396) were used. Data were analysed using correlation analysis and partial least-squares structural equation modelling. STROBE Statement for cross-sectional studies has been followed in this study. Results The results exhibite…

The Personal Repertoire and Its Materiality : Resources, Means and Modalities of Languaging

2023

The chapter is a theoretical discussion of the concept of personal repertoire and its application in the context of applied linguistics, particularly in the study of language learning and development. It questions conceptualisations that understand language learning as acquisition of abstract, decontextual and disembodied language knowledge and argues that learners’ know-how is not based on any kind of ‘mental grammar’, but on a personal repertoire of different multimodal semiotic resources. Bringing together ‘old’ and ‘new’ arguments for materialism, personal repertoires are examined focussing on how embodied agentive activity is intertwined with the socially structured environments and th…

Towards sustainable mobility : Transformative scenarios for 2034

2022

Highlights • Increasing the share of walking and cycling is one of the building blocks of sustainable mobility transformation. • We organised an online Delphi survey for 30 walking and cycling experts during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic. • Disaggregative Delphi analysis is elaborated based on the systemic restructuring of qualitative data. • Transport experts’ views of the future are described in the form of five walking and cycling scenarios up to 2034. • The results can be used for strategic transport planning and policy, and for identifying instruments for walking and cycling promotion in urban areas. Increasing the share of walking and cycling is one of the building blocks of sus…
