Jääkiekon ranne- ja lyöntilaukaukseen vaikuttavat biomekaaniset tekijät

2019

Jääkiekko-ottelun voittaa eniten maaleja tehnyt joukkue. Maali tehdään useimmiten laukomalla kiekko maaliin, joten käytetyimpien laukaisutekniikoiden, ranne- ja lyöntilaukauksen, hallitseminen on tärkeää jääkiekkoilijalle. Jääkiekon laukausta on tutkittu vain vähän, ja tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena olikin selvittää kiekon nopeuteen vaikuttavia biomekaanisia tekijöitä sekä pelaajan voimaominaisuuksien vaikutusta kiekon nopeuteen. Tutkimukseen osallistui 17 pelaajaa, joista puolet oli ollut Hockey Base Oy:n laukaisuvalmennuksessa. Pelaajien taso vaihteli ammattilaisista harrastajiin. Tutkittavat suorittivat tarkkuuslaukauksia, maksimaalisia rannelaukauksia kahdella eri painonsiirrolla (alak…

Internationalisation at home in Finnish HEIs : a comprehensive approach is needed

2020

International mobility continues to be a priority focus area for internationalising higher education. According to the European Association for International Education (EAIE) Barometer survey, the most common international priority activities included international student mobility, international student recruitment and international staff mobility (Sandström & Hudson, 2018). However, there is rising awareness that international mobility only serves a small percentage of students and there is a need for non-mobile students and staff to gain international and intercultural competencies. This article highlights and explores the findings of a Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture funded pr…

Tasmaniassa moni asia on toisin

Kansainvälisyys on ollut yliopistollisia iskusanoja 2000-luvun alusta lähtien. Pestejä maailmalle ja artikkeleita englanniksi. Toinen kaista on tukossa: maailmalle ei käytännössä pääse. Kun ajat entiset palaavat jossakin muodossa, niin on hyvä muistaa, että maailmalle lähteminen kysyy joustavuutta. nonPeerReviewed

Survey of Italian Pediatricians on awareness, experiences and beliefs regarding direct-to-consumer genetic testing in minors

2022


 Background: Our study wanted to assess Italian pediatricians’ awareness, experience and beliefs regarding directto-consumer (DTC) genetic tests (GT) in minors, with a focus on those for predisposition to complex disease, lyfestyle, athletic ability and other inborn talents.
 Methods: A 28-item questionnaire was administered through the SurveyMonkey® web platform to the 9,086 members of the Italian Society of Pediatrics for which a valid email address was available. The survey was opened from April through November 2017. Statistical analyses were performed using the Graphpad software package.
 Results: 36.2% of the 442 respondents were aware of DTC-GT, but only 23.1% of them…

Sähköpostiviestien aloitukset ja lopetukset oppijansuomessa ja oppijanruotsissa

2013

This study examines interpersonality and audience awareness of initial greetings and leave-taking formulae in 1,041 e-mails (523 Finnish, 518 Swedish) written by Finnish (n = 222) and Swedish (n = 174) language learners in basic education, secondary education and at university level in Finland. The results reveal that there are certain communicative differences between the two groups. The e-mails contain different levels of formality: Swedish learners use more initial greetings and their messages are slightly more coherent than those of Finnish learners. The initial greeting hei/hej is commonly used in different contexts, regardless of the language. Learners’ audience awareness is indicated…

Culture of fear, age of anxiety : case of the Ebola outbreak in 2014

2017

Tämä gradu tutkii miten 2014 Ebola epidemiaa Länsi-Afrikassa kuvailtiin länsimaisessa mediassa, sekä sitä miten nämä kuvaukset liittyvät vallitsevaan pelon kulttuuriin. Pelon kulttuuri viittaa viime vuosikymmeninä länsimaissa kasvaneeseen ilmiöön, jossa pelosta on tullut vallitseva osa jokapäiväistä elämää jonka kautta maailmaa ymmärretään. Sosiologien Frank Furedi (2002), Barry Glassner (1999) and David Altheide (2006) tutkimukset pelon kulttuurista muodostavat teoreettisen viitekehyksen tälle tutkimukselle. Aineistoni koostuu englantilaisten The Guardian and Daily Mail lehtien Ebolaa käsittelevistä artikkeleista. Tutkimusmetodina on käytetty kvalitatiivista sisällönanalyysiä, sekä joitain…

Climate change influences on aviation: A literature review

2020

While the aviation sector has long been referenced as contributing to the causes of climate change, the need for aviation to adapt to the consequences of climate change has not been as well researched or considered. The paper is a systematic quantitative literature review on climate change and aviation, which aims to explicate significant issues affecting aviation in a changing climate and to identify the aviation industry responses on climate change and adaptation. There are 46 references involved in the detailed assessment, selected according to variables such as methodology, paper outcomes and industry stakeholder. This emergent aviation and climate change adaptation literature could be …
