Trait Self-Control, Social Cognition Constructs, and Intentions: Correlational Evidence for Mediation and Moderation Effects in Diverse Health Behavi…
2019
Background: We examined effects of trait self‐control, constructs from social cognition theories, and intentions on health behaviours. Trait self‐control was expected to predict health behaviour indirectly through theory constructs and intentions. Trait self‐control was also predicted to moderate the intention–behaviour relationship. Methods: Proposed effects were tested in six datasets for ten health‐related behaviours from studies adopting prospective designs. Participants (N = 3,249) completed measures of constructs from social cognition theories and self‐control at an initial time point and self‐reported their behaviour at follow‐up. Results: Results revealed indirect effects of self‐co…
Cognition, metacognition and the patient perspective : new ways to evaluate and rehabilitate schizophrenia patients in forensic psychiatric care
2016
This research focused on factors associated with schizophrenia as well as on the feasibility and effectiveness of group metacognitive training (MCT) in schizophrenia patients with a history of violence in a high-security forensic hospital setting. One of the aims was to scrutinize reasoning ability in regards to jumping to conclusions (JTC) cognitive bias and the expression of cognitive insight (insight into one’s own thinking), a metacognitive ability. A second aim was to examine the associations of these factors with each other and with insight into illness and delusions. Moreover, the patients’ health-related quality of life (HRQOL) was explored. A further objective was to study the pote…
Computational Rationality as a Theory of Interaction

Publisher Copyright: © 2022 ACM. How do people interact with computers? This fundamental question was asked by Card, Moran, and Newell in 1983 with a proposition to frame it as a question about human cognition - in other words, as a matter of how information is processed in the mind. Recently, the question has been reframed as one of adaptation: how …
Load-dependent alpha suppression is related to working memory capacity for numbers
2022
Alpha suppression is proposed to reflect a surge in cortical excitability to enhance stimulus processing in working memory. The attenuated state of alpha might reflect the prioritisation of behaviourally relevant information, making it a proxy for working memory functioning. Despite the growing interest in utilising the advancement of brain-based measures to evaluate individuals’ cognitive processes, there was a lack of consistent evidence on the relationship between alpha suppression and working memory performance. To investigate whether interindividual differences in alpha suppression might be related to variability in working memory capacity, we recorded participants’ electroencephalogra…

Content-based design engineering thinking : in the search for approach
2005
Tuoko kognitiotiede uuden näkökulman insinöörien suunnittelun ja ajattelun tutkimiseen? Insinöörien ajatteluprosessien parempi ymmärtäminen on DI Kalevi Nevalan tutkimuksen teema. Sen kautta hän etsi uutta tapaa todellisten suunnitteluprosessien ymmärtämiseen. - Ongelmana on ihmisen ajattelun tutkimisen vaikeus, Nevala myöntää.Tutkimuksessa esitetyllä uudella sisältöperusteisella lähestymistavalla on mahdollista ymmärtää paremmin suunnitteluajattelua ja täyttää käytännössä havaittu kuilu perinteisten suunnittelumenetelmien ja todellisen insinöörien ajattelun välillä. Perinteiset menetelmät ovat pääosin intuitiivisesti rakennettuja tai ne pyrkivät selittämään suunnittelun kulkua abstraktiois…
CA3–CA1 long‐term potentiation occurs regardless of respiration and cardiac cycle phases in urethane‐anesthetized rats
2023
Breathing and heartbeat synchronize to each other and to brain function and affect cognition in humans. However, it is not clear how cardiorespiratory rhythms modulate such basic processes as synaptic plasticity thought to underlie learning. Thus, we studied if respiration and cardiac cycle phases at burst stimulation onset affect hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) in the CA3–CA1 synapse in urethane-anesthetized adult male Sprague–Dawley rats. In a between-subjects design, we timed burst stimulation of the ventral hippocampal commissure (vHC) to systole or diastole either during expiration or inspiration and recorded responses throughout the hippocampus with a linear probe. As classic…
Simplicity and the art of something more: A cognitive-semiotic approach to simplicity and complexity in human-technology interaction and design exper…
2018
In human–technology interaction, the balance between simplicity and complexity has been much discussed. Emphasis is placed on the value of simplicity when designing for usability. Often simplicity is interpreted as reductionism, which compromises both the affective nature of the design and usability itself. This paper takes a cognitive–semiotic approach toward understanding the dynamics between the utilitarian benefits of simplicity in design and the art of something more: considerate complexity. The cognitive–semiotic approach to human–technology design experience is a vehicle for explaining the relationship between simplicity and complexity, and this relationship’s multisensory character …
Taidekasvatuksen pontimet : institutionaalisen perinteen tarkastelua
2014
Taidekasvatuksen määritelmä on sekä akateemisessa että yhteiskunnallisessa (julkisessa/poliittisessa) kontekstissa edelleen avoin. Perinteen jäsentymättömyys tarjoilee mahdollisuuksia, mutta parhaillaan taidekasvatuksen kenttää hahmottelevien puhetapojen eroavaisuudet vesittävät koko ilmiötä. Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan lähempää yhtä taidekasvatuksen perinnettä erottelemalla tätä kulttuurisen realismin perspektiivistä ja peilaamalla tutkimustuloksia muihin taiteen ja taidekasvatuksen ilmiöitä rajaaviin näkökulmiin. Työn taustalla vaikuttavaksi tutkimustehtäväksi voidaan määritellä taidekasvatuksen ja taiteen sitominen rinnakkain ja limittäin tapahtuviksi ilmiöiksi. Symbioosi voidaan peru…
