Processing of word stress related acoustic information : A multi-feature MMN study
2017
In the present study, we investigated the processing of word stress related acoustic features in a word context. In a passive oddball multi-feature MMN experiment, we presented a disyllabic pseudo-word with two acoustically similar syllables as standard stimulus, and five contrasting deviants that differed from the standard in that they were either stressed on the first syllable or contained a vowel change. Stress was realized by an increase of f0, intensity, vowel duration or consonant duration. The vowel change was used to investigate if phonemic and prosodic changes elicit different MMN components. As a control condition, we presented non-speech counterparts of the speech stimuli. Result…
MOBIlity assessment with modern TEChnology in older patients’ real-life by the General Practitioner: the MOBITEC-GP study protocol
2019
Abstract Background Mobility limitations in older adults are associated with poor clinical outcomes including higher mortality and disability rates. A decline in mobility (including physical function and life-space) is detectable and should be discovered as early as possible, as it can still be stabilized or even reversed in early stages by targeted interventions. General practitioners (GPs) would be in the ideal position to monitor the mobility of their older patients. However, easy-to-use and valid instruments for GPs to conduct mobility assessment in the real-life practice setting are missing. Modern technologies such as the global positioning system (GPS) and inertial measurement units …
Naturalistic study on the usage of smartphone applications among Finnish drivers
2018
We present results from a naturalistic study that tracked how Finnish drivers use their smartphones while on the move. We monitored 30 heavy in-car smartphone users in Finland during June–September 2016, recording the times that they used their phones, the application used at the time of touch (calls excluded), the location and driving speed. Touches per time unit were used as a proxy for estimating visual-manual distraction due to visual-manual tasks. Our data set allows the determining of whether drivers use their phones differently on varying road types (highway, main road, local rural road, urban road). We found that the road type has an effect on phone use but the effect is contrary to…
School-entry language outcomes in late talkers with and without a family risk of dyslexia.
2020
Children with familial risk (FR) of dyslexia and children with early language delay are known to be at risk for later language and literacy difficulties. However, research addressing long‐term outcomes in children with both risk factors is scarce. This study tracked FR and No‐FR children identified as late talkers at 2 years of age and reports development from 4;6 through 6 years. We examined the possible effects of FR‐status and late talking (LT) status, respectively, on language skills at school entry, and whether FR‐status moderated the associations between 4;6‐year and 6‐year language scores. Results indicated an effect of LT status on language at both ages, while FR status affected lan…
Viihtymistä, kontakteja ja hyötyä : sähköiset mediat kuudesluokkalaisen silmin
2009
Media on nykypäivänä suuri ja alati kasvava osa elämäämme, ja lapset ja nuoret ovat sen käytössä edelläkävijöitä. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena olikin selvittää, minkälaisia merkityksiä sähköisillä medioilla (tietokone/internet, elektroniset pelit, televisio ja kännykkä) on yhden kuudennen luokan oppilaille. Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin myös, mitä sähköisiä medioita tutkimuksessa mukana olevat lapset käyttävät ja miten. Tutkimuksessa käytettiin menetelmien ja aineistojen triangulaatiota, jolloin tutkimuksessa yhdistyivät sekä laadullinen että määrällinen tutkimus. Käytettyjä tutkimusaineistoja olivat kyselylomakkeet, mediakirjoitelmat, päiväkirjat ja posterit. Kirjoitelmia ja postereita lä…
Mechanisms of Smartphone Apps for Cigarette Smoking Cessation: Results of a Serial Mediation Model From the iCanQuit Randomized Trial
2021
Background Engagement with digital interventions is a well-known predictor of treatment outcomes, but this knowledge has had limited actionable value. Instead, learning why engagement with digital interventions impact treatment outcomes can lead to targeted improvements in their efficacy. Objective This study aimed to test a serial mediation model of an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) smartphone intervention for smoking cessation. Methods In this randomized controlled trial, participants (N=2415) from 50 US states were assigned to the ACT-based smartphone intervention (iCanQuit) or comparison smartphone intervention (QuitGuide). Their engagement with the apps (primary measure: numb…
Teknologian rooli meditaatioharjoittelussa
2016
Informaatioteknologian kehitys on mahdollistanut meditaatioharjoitteiden tehokkaan leviämisen länsimaisten kulttuurien ulottuville. Digitaalisissa ympäristöissä informaatio leviää erittäin tehokkaasti ja meditaatioharjoitteisiin liittyvään informaatioon törmääminen onkin todennäköisempää kuin koskaan aikaisemmin. Meditoinnin ollaan havaittu edistävän hyvinvointia useilla elämän osa-alueilla ja tuloksien käytännönläheinen soveltaminen edistyy jatkuvasti. Vuosien saatossa informaatioteknologiaa on kehitetty lukuisiin asiayhteyksiin, eikä meditaatioharjoittelu ole jäänyt teknologisen kehityskulun ulkopuolelle. Markkinoilla liikkuu lukuisia erilaisia meditaatioharjoittelua tukevia sovelluksia, …
