Comparison of well-being of older adult choir singers and the general population in Finland: A case-control study
2016
Previous research suggests that singing in a choir as an older adult is associated with better quality of life (QOL). However, the degree to which sociodemographic variables and level of engagement in hobbies contribute to this relationship is largely unknown. The aim of the study was to compare quality of life (QOL) of older adult choir singers with a matched sample of older adults from the general population in Finland, taking into consideration sociodemographic variables, satisfaction with health, and level of engagement in hobbies. Case-control methods were used to match a sample of 109 older adult singers with a sample of 307 older adults from the general population. Tobit regression …
Beliefs and Experiences of Individuals Following a Zero-Carb Diet
2021
The adoption of carbohydrate-restrictive diets to improve health is increasing in popularity, but there is a dearth of research on individuals who choose to severely restrict or entirely exclude carbohydrates. The present study investigated the beliefs and experiences of individuals following a diet that severely limits, or entirely excludes, dietary carbohydrates, colloquially known as a ‘zero-carb’ diet, for at least 6 months. Zero-carb dieters (n = 170) recruited via a social networking site completed an online qualitative survey prompting them to discuss their motives, rationale, and experiences of following a low-carb diet. Transcripts of participants’ responses were …

Individual and country-level factors associated with self-reported and accelerometer-based physical activity in old age: a cross-national analysis of…
2022
AbstractThis study aimed to investigate associations between individual-level (personality traits, quality of life) and country-level (gross domestic product per capita, number of policies and action plans for physical activity) factors with self-reported and accelerometer-based physical activity and cross-level interactions among European countries. Based on the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) from 2019–2020, self-reported physical activity (N = 46,617 from 27 countries) and accelerometer-based average acceleration and intensity gradient (N = 855 from 10 countries) were analyzed. Mixed-model regressions with two levels (individuals nested within countries) were us…

IAS 36 -standardin mukaisen liikearvon arvonalentumistestauksen raportoinnin laatu ja siihen vaikuttavat tekijät suomalaisissa pörssiyhtiöissä tilika…
2014
Tutkielma käsittelee IAS 36 -standardin mukaisen liikearvon arvonalentumistestauksen rapor-tointiohjeistuksen noudattamista ja tätä kautta määriteltävää liikearvoraportoinnin laatua sekä laatuun vaikuttavia tekijöitä. Otoksena ovat suomalaiset pörssiyhtiöt, joiden taseen loppusummasta liikearvo muodosti vähintään 10 prosentin osuuden tilikaudella 2012. Laadun mittaamiseksi muodostettiin pisteytysmittaristo, jonka avulla laatu voitiin esittää asteikolla 0 – 100 %. Laatua mitattiin myös raportoinnin osa-alueittain. Osa-alueita olivat yleiset kysymykset, johdon ennustejakso, terminaalijakso, herkkyysanalyysi sekä raportoinnin tietolähteet. Tutkitut liikearvon arvonalentumistestauksen raportoin…
Sleep-time physiological recovery is associated with eating habits in distressed working-age Finns with overweight: secondary analysis of a randomise…
2021
Background Association of physiological recovery with nutrition has scarcely been studied. We investigated whether physiological recovery during sleep relates to eating habits, i.e., eating behaviour and diet quality. Methods Cross-sectional baseline analysis of psychologically distressed adults with overweight (N = 252) participating in a lifestyle intervention study in three Finnish cities. Recovery measures were based on sleep-time heart rate variability (HRV) measured for 3 consecutive nights. Measures derived from HRV were 1) RMSSD (Root Mean Square of the Successive Differences) indicating the parasympathetic activation of the autonomic nervous system and 2) Stress Balance (SB) indica…
Calibration of in situ chlorophyll fluorometers for organic matter
2019
AbstractOrganic matter (OM) other than living phytoplankton is known to affect fluorometric in situ assessments of chlorophyll in lakes. For this reason, calibrating fluorometric measurements for OM error is important. In this study, chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence was measured in situ in multiple Finnish lakes using two sondes equipped with Chl fluorometers (ex.470/em.650–700 nm). OM absorbance (A420) was measured from water samples, and one of the two sondes was also equipped with in situ fluorometer for OM (ex.350/em.430 nm). The sonde with Chl and OM fluorometers was also deployed continuously on an automated water quality monitoring station on Lake Konnevesi. For data from multiple lake…
