Ownership and Use of Commercial Physical Activity Trackers Among Finnish Adolescents: Cross-Sectional Study
2017
BackgroundMobile phone apps for monitoring and promoting physical activity (PA) are extremely popular among adults. Devices, such as heart rate monitors or sports watches (HRMs/SWs) that work with these apps are at sufficiently low costs to be available through the commercial markets. Studies have reported an increase in PA levels among adults with devices; however, it is unknown whether the phenomena are similar during early adolescence. At a time when adolescents start to develop their own sense of independence and build friendship, the ease of smartphone availability in developed countries needs to be investigated in important health promoting behaviors such as PA. ObjectiveThe objective…
Demographic Differences in the Effectiveness of a Physical Activity Application to Promote Physical Activity: Study Among Aged People
2021
The global population is ageing and simultaneously the life expectancy at older ages is improving. To support healthy and active aging, it is imperative to find solutions to support physical activity (PA) in older age. Digital wellness technologies are a potential solution, but in order for such technologies to be successful, research is needed to gain a better understanding on their use and effectiveness among aged people. To address this need, this study investigated the effectiveness of a physical activity application to promote PA behavior among aged people of different demographics (gender, age, education, marital status). PA levels were measured before taking the application into use …
HTML5 tablet uutissovelluksen suunnittelu ja toteutus
2013
Keskipohjanmaa-lehdestä haluttiin toteuttaa web-pohjainen, HTML5:tä hyödyntävä tablet-uutissovellus Keski-Pohjanmaan Kirjapaino Oyj:lle. Työssä tut- kittiin uusimpia web-teknologioita, kannettavia laitteita, web-sovelluksen tekemis- tä ja tablet-sovelluksen luomista sanomalehdestä. Työn aikana toteutettiin kolme prototyyppiä ja kaksi virallista tablet-sovellusversiota. Ensimmäisessä virallisessa versiossa rakenne ja data olivat yhdessä sekä osa sovelluslogiikasta oli palvelimen koodissa. Toisessa versiossa data ja rakenne olivat erillään ja sovelluslogiikka oli tehty Javascriptillä. Tehdessä web-sovellusta tablet-laitteille selvisi, että on huomioi- tava suorituskyky ja Internet-selainten e…
The Actual Adoption and Use of Mobile Apps : The Case of a Higher Education Context
2020
Mobile applications have gained wide acceptance in several sectors, including eCommerce and education. In higher education, mobile apps are being used not only for mobile learning but also for creating smart campus environments in which physical campuses are augmented with digital services. Mobile apps for smart campus initiatives usually have several features that students and educators are expected to adopt and use. However, although prior studies have investigated the adoption of mobile apps, most of such studies are on the user's intention to use or continue using mobile apps, leaving gaps in our understanding of how actual use occurs. Drawing on a case study of a mobile app for a smart…
Digitaalisen kommunikaatiosovelluksen kehittäminen kodin ja koulun vuorovaikutuksen edistämiseksi
2006
Juha-Matti Latvala tutki väitöstyössään mahdollisuuksia parantaa kodin ja koulun välistä viestintää nykyaikaista tekniikkaa hyväksi käyttäen. Jyväskylän yliopiston MUKAVA-hankkeessa kehitettiin vuosina 2003–2005 Kivahkoksi nimetty sovellus. Latvala tarkastelee sovelluksen käyttäjälähtöistä kehitysprosessia sekä sovelluksen merkitystä kokeiluun osallistuneiden luokkien oppilaiden vanhemmille ja opettajille.Latvalan kuvaaman tutkimus- ja kehitysprosessin tulos, Kivahko-viestintäsovellus, on teknisen ja sosiaalisen innovaation yhdistelmä. Se yhdistää olemassa olevia tekniikoita uuteen käyttötarkoitukseen ja parantaa käytänteitä kodin ja koulun yhteistyössä. Viestintäsovellus on tarkoitettu kod…
Identifying opportunities for AI applications in healthcare — Renewing the national healthcare and social services
2018
A vast variety of artificial intelligence techniques have been deployed to specific healthcare problems during the last thirty years with varying levels of success while there is a shortage of systematic matching of AI capabilities with the breadth of application opportunities. In this paper, we describe the process of identifying opportunities for deploying artificial intelligence to healthcare and social services on regional and national levels in Finland. The project involved a large number of stakeholders from a variety of backgrounds ranging from governmental agencies to entrepreneurs. The process described includes idea generation of an application or solution and its elaboration in w…
Lisätty todellisuus matkapuhelinsovelluksissa
2010
Peura, Kimmo Tapio Lisätty todellisuus matkapuhelinsovelluksissa Jyväskylä: Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2010. 30s. Kandidaatintutkielma Tässä tutkielmassa käsitellään lisättyä todellisuutta ja sen sovelluksia matkapuhelimissa. Ensin esittelen, mitä lisätty todellisuus on ja miten se liittyy virtuaalitodellisuuteen. Tämän jälkeen kerron matkapuhelimesta lisätyn todellisuuden laitealustana. Lopuksi esittelen kolme matkapuhelinsovellusta, Layarin, Sekai Cameran ja Toozlan, joissa hyödynnetään lisättyä todellisuutta. Lisätty todellisuus toteutetaan yleensä käyttämällä läpinäkyviä näyttöjä tai monitoripohjaisia näyttöjä. Läpinäkyvät näytöt ovat usein päässä kannettavia näyttöjä ja niiden avulla voi t…
The effectiveness and applicability of different lifestyle interventions for enhancing wellbeing : the study design for a randomized controlled trial…
2014
Background: Obesity and stress are among the most common lifestyle-related health problems. Most of the current disease prevention and management models are not satisfactorily cost-effective and hardly reach those who need them the most. Therefore, novel evidence-based controlled interventions are necessary to evaluate models for prevention and treatment based on self-management. This randomized controlled trial examines the effectiveness, applicability, and acceptability of different lifestyle interventions with individuals having symptoms of metabolic syndrome and psychological distress. The offered interventions are based on cognitive behavioral approaches, and are designed for enhancing…
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…
Needs and preferences of women with prior severe preeclampsia regarding app-based cardiovascular health promotion
2022
Abstract Background Women with prior severe preeclampsia are at an increased risk for cardiovascular diseases later in life compared to women who had a normotensive pregnancy. The objective of this study was to assess their needs and preferences regarding app-based cardiovascular health promotion. Methods Patients (n = 35) of the Follow-Up PreEClampsia Outpatient Clinic (FUPEC), Erasmus MC, the Netherlands, participated in an anonymous online survey. The main outcomes under study were women’s needs for health behavior promotion, and their preferences with respect to intervention delivery. Descriptive statistics were used to evaluate needs, and thematic analysis was used to analyze preferenc…
