1H NMR global diatropicity in copper hydride complexes

2022

Understanding the magnetic response of electrons in nanoclusters is essential to interpret their NMR spectra thereby providing guidelines for their synthesis towards various target applications. Here, we consider two copper hydride clusters that have applications in hydrogen storage and release under standard temperature and pressure. Through Born–Oppenheimer molecular dynamics simulations, we study dynamics effects and their contributions to the NMR peaks. Finally, we examine the electrons’ magnetic response to an applied external magnetic field using the gauge-including magnetically induced currents theory. Local diatropic currents are generated in both clusters but an interesting global …

Nais- ja miesjohtajien urasiirtymät ja niihin vaikuttavat tekijät

2014

Urat ja yksilöiden urakehitys elävät jatkuvassa muutoksessa. Urasiirtymä –käsitteenä on hyvin moninainen ja on ollut yleistä, että sitä on käytetty useassa eri tilanteessa ja käsitteellä on ollut myös useita eri merkityksiä. Urasiirtymiä on tutkittu niin yksilön kuin organisaation näkökulmista, joskin yksilötasolla tarkastelu on ollut vähäisempää. Tarve urasiirtymien tutkimukseen muun muassa osana yksilön muuta elämää on kasvanut. Tutkimukseni teoreettinen viitekehys rakentuu urakäsitteen erilaisista määritelmistä, urasiirtymän ja urasiirtymäsyklin käsitteiden määritelmistä, nais- ja miesjohtajien uria ja urakehitystä käsittelevistä teorioista sekä u…

The Narrative Approach to Research Professional Identity: Relational, Temporal, and Dialogical Perspectives

2022

In this chapter, we present the narrative approach as applied in the field of professional learning. The specific aim is to present the methodological opportunities and concerns it raises in research on professional identity within the sociocultural frames of work environments. We utilise examples from empirical studies that have employed a range of narrative methods to collect and analyse datasets. The datasets include individuals’ written and spoken narratives, encompassing the told experiences of their identities, and the meanings underlying these. We illustrate how a particular strength of narrative research lies in its ability to portray temporal pathways through the phenomena under in…

Narratives by women managers about spousal support for their careers

2014

In this article we present a qualitative study of spousal support for the careers of women managers. The research material consists of the narratives of 25 women managers in Finland. The study has two main implications. Firstly, unlike previous studies, we use a narrative approach to demonstrate that a woman manager's career and spousal support are experienced as ambiguous and evolving over the career. The support was constructed by the women managers as flourishing, irrelevant, deficient or inconsistent. Secondly, to increase our knowledge about gender relations, we combine discussion of the topic with gender order analysis and suggest that gender order is critical for an understanding of …

Hobby, career or vocation? Meanings in sports coaching and their implications for recruitment and retention of coaches

2020

Rationale/Purpose: Traditional European sports clubs are facing increasing pressures to professionalise their services, while also encountering difficulties in the recruitment and retention of the coaching workforce. We used the concept of meaningful work to explore why coaching is worthwhile to coaches and how they have responded to the changes in the structural and narrative context of their work. \ud \ud Methodology: Drawing on narrative inquiry, we explored the various meanings and justifications that athletics (track and field) coaches assign to coaching in Finland and England. Twenty-three coaches (8 women, 15 men) aged 22 – 86 participated in narrative interviews that were analysed u…

“I want to do well for myself as well!” : Constructing coaching careers in elite women’s football

2019

There is a limited understanding of career development of sport coaches, especially from the subjective perspective focused on personal meaning and evaluation of this life project in sport. We drew on career construction theory and narrative methodology to explore football coaches’ career development, adaptability resources, and the meanings they assigned to their journeys. Ten women’s football (soccer) coaches (2 women) aged 23-60 in England took part in narrative interviews which we analysed using thematic narrative analysis. Our analysis indicated that early immersion into the football narrative context most often resulted in low career exploration and a strong commitment to coaching as …

Developing National Career and Workforce Development Systems and Policies with Structured International Co-operation : Structures, Processes and Acti…

2017

This chapter describes the work undertaken by European Lifelong Guidance Policy Network, ELGPN during 2007-15, including the progress of lifelong guidance policy adaptation and implementation processes of the member countries at national, regional and local levels. In an evaluation of ELGPN’s work, members report that participation in the Network enriched their awareness of possible responses to common challenges and given them fresh perspectives and new insights into their national provision. A key strength of the Network was the strong ownership of its activities expressed by the national delegations. ELGPN member countries stress the importance of continuing structured European co-operat…

Lihassolurakenteen ja entsyymiaktiivisuuksien yhteydet isometriseen voimantuottoon, maksimijuoksunopeuteen sekä juoksun taloudellisuuteen

2000

Riikka Kivelä: Lihassolurakenteen ja entsyymiaktiivisuuksien yhteydet isometriseen voimantuottoon, maksimijuoksunopeuteen sekä juoksun taloudellisuuteen. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää lihaksen biokemiallisten ominaisuuksien (myosiinin raskasketjukoostumus, lihassolujakauma ja entsyymiaktiivisuudet) yhteyttä maksimivoimaan ja voimantuottonopeuteen, maksimijuoksunopeuteen sekä juoksun taloudellisuuteen eri nopeuksilla. Energiantuottoon vaikuttavista entsyymeistä tarkasteltiin kahden aerobisen (CS ja HAD) sekä kahden anaerobisen (PFK ja LDH) entsyymiaktiivisuuksia. Kymmenen Suomen parhaimmistoon kuuluvan keskimatkan (800-5000 metrin) miesjuoksijan juoksun taloudellisuutta mitattiin v…
