‘I do not trust any of them anymore’: Institutional distrust and corrective practices in pro-asylum activism in Finland

2022

Although there is extensive research on how institutional trust and distrust play out in the forms political participation takes, the existing research lacks thorough analysis on what trust and distrust actually consist of, that is, how individuals evaluate institutions as trustworthy or not and what consequences this evaluation has for individuals and their relation to the state more broadly. Drawing on qualitative research on Finnish citizens who engage in pro-asylum activism, we examine how institutional distrusting evolves as a reflexive process. By analysing citizens’ trust judgements on institutional practices and actions that follow, we argue that distrust in institutions enhances a…

Individual differences in affective and cognitive processing of musical pitch

2012

Musical pitch processing has been studied extensively, but rarely in the context of affective pitch processing, or of individual differences in pitch processing. In this study, participants answered surveys measuring personality and empathy dimensions. They then listened to tonal chord sequences to determine whether they sounded correct or incorrect, and whether they sounded happy or sad, while electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded. The last chord of each sequence could be either incorrect (containing one note which is out of tune) or correct (containing no such mistuning), and affective content was varied by having sequences resolve in major and minor modes. Personality dimension agreeab…

Brain, cognition and physically active lifestyle in healthy ageing

2018

Normal ageing is accompanied by profound changes in brain structure and declines in the automatic processing of sensory stimuli, which in turn lead to altered cognitive performance. However, behaviour and lifestyle factors, such as physical activity, may help to maintain the brain’s structural connectivity and function, as well as cognitive functioning in old age. Study I examined the effects of age on the brain’s capability to detect changes in somatosensory stimuli by recording event-related potentials (ERPs) in response to electrical stimulation of different fingers in young and older adults. The results of Study I show that somatosensory mismatch response (sMMR) was attenuated in amplit…

Effects of density, species interactions, and environmental stochasticity on the dynamics of British bird communities

2022

Our knowledge of the factors affecting species abundances is mainly based on time-series analyses of a few well-studied species at single or few localities, but we know little about whether results from such analyses can be extrapolated to the community level. We apply a joint species distribution model to long-term time-series data on British bird communities to examine the relative contribution of intra- and interspecific density dependence at different spatial scales, as well as the influence of environmental stochasticity, to spatiotemporal interspecific variation in abundance. Intraspecific density dependence has the major structuring effect on these bird communities. In addition, envi…

The inhibitory effect of long-term associative representation on working memory

2020

Studies on how long-term memory affects working memory (WM) have found that long-term memory can enhance WM processing. However, these studies only use item memory as the representation of long-term memory. In addition to item memory, associative memory is also an essential part of long-term memory. The associative memory and item memory involve different cognitive mechanisms and brain areas. The purpose of the present study was to investigate how associative memory affects WM processing. Before the WM task, participants were asked to store 16 pairs of dissimilar pictures into long-term memory. The participants would obtain the associative memory of these pairs of pictures in the long-term …

Projektiopiskelu ja -oppiminen ammattikorkeakoulussa

2001

Projektityöskentely on yksi näkyvä ja yhä laajemmin käytetty pedagoginen ratkaisu koulutuksen ja työelämän yhteistyölle ammattikorkeakoulussa. Projekteilla vastataan työelämän kehittämistarpeisiin. Ne ovat samanaikaisesti opetusmenetelmiä, opiskelumenetelmiä, opiskelun substanssia sekä työelämän ja työelämäyhteistyön kehittämisen välineitä. Pirkko Vesterisen väitöstutkimuksessa on selvitetty projektiopiskelun ongelmia pedagogian (oppiminen ja projektiopiskelun ohjaaminen) sekä osaamisen tuottamisen näkökulmasta. Tutkimuksen päätulos on aineiston pohjalta luotu projektipedagogiikan malli, jonka tarkoitus on jäsentää ja tukea projektiopiskelun oppimis-ohjausprosessia. Mallin avulla projektiop…
