Changes in achievement values from primary to lower secondary school among students with and without externalizing problems
2017
This study examined the effect of students' externalizing problems on changes in values that they attach to math across the transition from primary to lower secondary school. Data pertaining to externalizing problems and to intrinsic, attainment, and utility values in math were gathered using the self-ratings of students in Grades 6 and 7. The analysis involved a comparison between students who reported persistent high externalizing problems before and after the transition (n = 63; 59% boys) and those who had low or non-existent externalizing problems before and after the transition (n = 1352; 50% boys). The results of a mixed-design analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) showed uniformly that stu…
Children’s beliefs concerning their school performance at the end of the first grade in Finland
2022
This study examines primary-school children’s beliefs about their school performance at the end of their first school year in Finland and feedback that they have received, and furthermore possible gender differences between these beliefs. Children from Grade 1 (N = 544), approximately 7 years old, were interviewed. The data were assessed using problem-driven content analyzis and inductive reasoning. The analyzis revealed ten categories of children’s beliefs regarding their school success and failure. The results showed that more than one-third of the children believed that they were succeeding well at school. More boys than girls mentioned that they succeeded in mathematics, and more girls …
Gendered Pathways Toward STEM Careers: The Incremental Roles of Work Value Profiles Above Academic Task Values.
2018
Drawing on Eccles’ expectancy-value model of achievement-related choices, we examined how work values predict individual and gender differences in sciences, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) participations in early adulthood (ages of 25/27, 6 or 8 years after postsecondary school), controlling for subjective task values attached to academic subjects in late adolescence (11th grade, age 18). The study examined 1,259 Finnish participants using a person-oriented approach. Results showed that: (a) we could identify four profile groups based on five core work values (society, family, monetary, career prospects, and working with people); (b) work-value profiles predicted young adults actua…
Onko osaamisella sukupuoli?
2001
Työn sukupuolen mukainen jako vallitsee kaikkien Euroopan maiden työ- ja koulutusmarkkinoita. Ammatillista osaamista ja sukupuolta koskevat käytännölliset ja tieteelliset keskustelut kohtaavat kuitenkin harvoin. Artikkeli kuvaa kansainvälistä tutkimusta, jossa selvitetään osaamisen sukupuolittumista ja sen ylittämisen mahdollisuuksia työpaikkojen ja oppilaitosten kasvatuskäytännöissä. Suomalaisten tutkimushaastattelujen alustavassa luennassa niin miehet kuin naiset pitävät osaamisia sukupuolettomina. Syvempi tulkinta edellyttää osaamis- ja gender-diskurssien kriittistä hyödyntämistä.

The development of school and sports task values among adolescent athletes : The role of gender
2022
AbstractSuccessfully integrating elite sports with education requires motivation to commit oneself to both domains. This study examines the development of and gender differences in adolescent athletes’ task values for school and sports across the upper secondary school years. A total of 391 adolescents (aged 15–16 at the beginning of the study) were followed four times during sports upper secondary school. The participating student athletes were recruited from six sports upper secondary schools in Finland, which offer equal competitive sport opportunities for both genders. The results showed that school- and sports- task values are strongly related to each other. Males valued school less th…
The effects of a 10-week combined maximal and explosive strength and high-intesity endurance training period on neuromuscular performance and 3K time…
2015
Combined strength and endurance training has been noted to produce significant improvements in strength and endurance performances in both men and women. However, there seems to be moderate inhibitory effect regarding strength adaptations, especially considering power production. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of a 10-week combined maximal and explosive strength and high-intensity endurance training period on neuromuscular performance and 3K time-trial in males and females. A total of 19 healthy recreationally trained subjects (Males: M= 10, Females: F= 9) completed a 10-week combined strength and endurance training period. All subjects trained twice a week strength and…
