Toward adjustment profiles for lower secondary student-athletes in the Finnish dual career context: A mixed-methods approach
2022
Engagement, burnout, and experiences are central concepts for understanding student-athlete adjustment in a dual career (DC) environment.

2020
Sia accademici che legislatori discutono sull'importanza di metodi di apprendimento e insegnamento innovativi per prevenire l'abbandono scolastico e preparare i futuri adulti ad affrontare contesti sociali sfavorevoli.

Teacher coping profiles in relation to teacher well-being : a mixed method approach
2021
The aim was to investigate teachers’ coping profiles and their relations to teacher well-being. Questionnaire data was collected from 107 Finnish teachers. Theory-driven content analysis of teachers’ responses revealed three coping categories: problem-focused, emotion-focused and mixed problem- and emotion-focused. Next, teachers were categorized into four coping profiles by using latent profile analysis: Low-coping users (21%), Problem-focused-coping users (15%), High-coping users (12%) and Emotion-focused-coping users (52%). Low-coping-user teachers reported less stress and fewer depressive symptoms and sleep problems compared to Emotion-focused-coping users. Using a compact amount of cop…

2012
Il presente studio ha l'obiettivo di valutare se l'utilizzo di un paradigma mixed methods (Dattilio et al., 2010) possa favorire la comprensione degli aspetti che possono essere associati ad un esito positivo o negativo (drop-out) di un trattamento.

Además, en este proceso juega un papel fundamental el feedback que el docente da a sus alumnos sobre su nivel de comprensión, así como los resultados del aprendizaje y los comentarios q…
