DEBATE: Do interventions based on behavioral theory work in the real world?
2019
Background: Behavioral scientists suggest that for behavior change interventions to work effectively, and deliver population-level health outcomes, they must be underpinned by behavioral theory. However, despite implementation of such interventions, population levels of both health outcomes and linked behaviors have remained relatively static. We debate the extent to which interventions based on behavioral theory work in the real world to address population health outcomes. Discussion: Hagger argues there is substantive evidence supporting the efficacy and effectiveness of interventions based on behavioral theory in promoting population-level health behavior change in the ‘real world’.

Practices in research, surveillance and control of neglected tropical diseases by One Health approaches: A survey targeting scientists from French-sp…
2021
One health (OH) approaches have increasingly been used in the last decade in the fight against zoonotic neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). However, descriptions of such collaborations between the human, animal and environmental health sectors are still limited for French-speaking tropical countries. The objective of the current survey was to explore the diversity of OH experiences applied to research, surveillance and control of NTDs by scientists from French-speaking countries, and discuss their constraints and benefits. Six zoonotic NTDs were targeted: echinococcoses, trypanosomiases, leishmaniases, rabies, Taenia solium cysticercosis and leptospiroses. Invitations to fill in an online q…
I diritti umani come tema conflittuale nel Consiglio di Sicurezza delle Nazioni Unite
2019
With the end of the Cold War and the expansion of the international liberal order, human rights have entered the UN Security Council agenda. However, this has become a divisive issue. In a context of greater influence of the US and its Western allies over the decision-making process of the most important multilateral institutions, the UN above all, the interpretation allowing intrusive practices by the Security Council promoted by the Western permanent members has clashed with the defense of sovereignty promoted by Russia and China. Analyzing divisive resolutions with reference to human rights in the period 2001-2017 (Lebanon, Myanmar, Zimbabwe, Libya and Syria) and the only thematic meetin…
Mindfulness-, hyväksyntä- ja arvopohjaisen intervention vaikutukset työn imuun ja sen ulottuvuuksiin sekä psykologinen joustavuus välittävänä tekijänä
2016
Mindfulness-, hyväksyntä- ja arvopohjaisten interventioiden käytöstä on saatu lupaavia tuloksia työhyvinvoinnin parantamisessa, mutta työn imun yhteydessä niitä ei ole juurikaan tutkittu. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tutkia mindfulness-, hyväksyntä- ja arvopohjaisen (MIHA) -intervention vaikuttavuutta työn imuun ja erikseen sen kolmeen ulottuvuuteen, tarmokkuuteen, omistautumiseen ja uppoutumiseen, sekä psykologiseen joustavuuteen. Lisäksi selvitettiin, välittääkö psykologisen joustavuuden muutos mahdollisia intervention aikaisia muutoksia tarmokkuudessa, omistautumisessa tai uppoutumisessa. Tutkimus on osa Jyväskylän yliopiston Muupu-tutkimushanketta. Tämän tutkimuksen tutkimusjoukk…
Rakstveida sarunu iezīmes tiešsaistes diskusiju forumos
2017
Pastāv dažādas komunikācijas formas un viena no tām ir digitālā komunikācija. Ziņu sūtīšana un saņemšana notiek digitālā vidē, kur valda īpaši noteikumi, nerakstīti likumi, kur valodas stila pielietojums atšķiras gan funkcionāli, gan pēc tipiskā satura. Digitālā valoda tiek identificēta kā “rakstveida saruna”, jo tā balstās, izmantojot rakstu kodu un sarunvalodas dinamiskās īpašības. Sociālajos forumos ziņu apmaiņa noris caur t.s. diskusiju pavedieniem, kas dod iespēju parādīt dalībnieku iejaukšanos pēc tā veida, kas tiek izteikta un mērīta kā reakcija vienam uz otru. Šī pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot, kāda veida iejaukšanās dominē diskusiju forumos tīmekļa vietnē “Doctissimo.fr”? Darba auto…

Check in, check out! : käyttäytymisen tehostettua tukea lähikoulussa
2018
Finnish schools struggle with problem behaviour and need new interventions which are effective, acceptable, and can be implemented with high fidelity in general classrooms. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of Check in check out (CICO) support in decreasing the disruptive behaviours of general education primary school pupils. CICO can be regarded as an intensified level of support in Finnish schools, and its key features are brief morning and afternoon meetings with a CICO coach, the use of a Daily Report Card (DRC), regular positive feedback during the day by the classroom teacher, and parental involvement. The specific aims of the study were threefold: first, to pilot the i…
Measuring pre-service teachers' attitudes towards inclusive education: Psychometric properties of the TAIS scale
2015
The Teachers’ Attitudes towards Inclusive Education (TAIS) scale was designed to measure pre-service teachers’ attitudes towards inclusion, as defined in the Salamanca Statement of UNESCO. The 10-item scale was developed using a sample of 185 final-year pre-service subject teachers. It was validated in four subsequent studies with various samples of teachers and pre-service teachers. The unidimensionality of the scale was established in all samples except the first-year students, and its validity was confirmed in psychometric analyses. The scale is suggested for use in intervention studies aiming to develop positive attitudes towards inclusion among teachers and pre-service teachers. peerRe…
Moving from intention to behaviour: a randomised controlled trial protocol for an app-based physical activity intervention (i2be).
2022
IntroductionEfficacy tests of physical activity interventions indicate that many have limited or short-term efficacy, principally because they do not sufficiently build on theory-based processes that determine behaviour. The current study aims to address this limitation.Methods and analysisThe efficacy of the 8-week intervention will be tested using a three-condition randomised controlled trial delivered through an app, in women with a prior hypertensive pregnancy disorder. The intervention is based on the integrated behaviour change model, which outlines the motivational, volitional and automatic processes that lead to physical activity. The mechanisms by which the behaviour change techniq…
Aktywność celowa a dobrostan psychiczny
2020
The central problem dealt with in this monograph is the question connected with the possibilities of raising people’s psychological well-being. In recent years there has been a lot of research conducted which proved that taking up an intentional activity brings positive effects for the psychological well-being. Simultaneously, a good number of researchers adhere to the thesis advancing a steady potential level of happiness and the lack of possibility of its lasting change. The model of dependence between an intentional activity and well-being is founded on the conception of happiness deriving from the frontiers of eudaimonic and hedonic schools, whereas the theory consolidating the base of …
