Children’s beliefs concerning their school performance at the end of the first grade in Finland

2022

This study examines primary-school children’s beliefs about their school performance at the end of their first school year in Finland and feedback that they have received, and furthermore possible gender differences between these beliefs. Children from Grade 1 (N = 544), approximately 7 years old, were interviewed. The data were assessed using problem-driven content analyzis and inductive reasoning. The analyzis revealed ten categories of children’s beliefs regarding their school success and failure. The results showed that more than one-third of the children believed that they were succeeding well at school. More boys than girls mentioned that they succeeded in mathematics, and more girls …

Gendered Pathways Toward STEM Careers: The Incremental Roles of Work Value Profiles Above Academic Task Values.

2018

Drawing on Eccles’ expectancy-value model of achievement-related choices, we examined how work values predict individual and gender differences in sciences, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) participations in early adulthood (ages of 25/27, 6 or 8 years after postsecondary school), controlling for subjective task values attached to academic subjects in late adolescence (11th grade, age 18). The study examined 1,259 Finnish participants using a person-oriented approach. Results showed that: (a) we could identify four profile groups based on five core work values (society, family, monetary, career prospects, and working with people); (b) work-value profiles predicted young adults actua…

Onko osaamisella sukupuoli?

2001

Työn sukupuolen mukainen jako vallitsee kaikkien Euroopan maiden työ- ja koulutusmarkkinoita. Ammatillista osaamista ja sukupuolta koskevat käytännölliset ja tieteelliset keskustelut kohtaavat kuitenkin harvoin. Artikkeli kuvaa kansainvälistä tutkimusta, jossa selvitetään osaamisen sukupuolittumista ja sen ylittämisen mahdollisuuksia työpaikkojen ja oppilaitosten kasvatuskäytännöissä. Suomalaisten tutkimushaastattelujen alustavassa luennassa niin miehet kuin naiset pitävät osaamisia sukupuolettomina. Syvempi tulkinta edellyttää osaamis- ja gender-diskurssien kriittistä hyödyntämistä.

The development of school and sports task values among adolescent athletes : The role of gender

2022

AbstractSuccessfully integrating elite sports with education requires motivation to commit oneself to both domains. This study examines the development of and gender differences in adolescent athletes’ task values for school and sports across the upper secondary school years. A total of 391 adolescents (aged 15–16 at the beginning of the study) were followed four times during sports upper secondary school. The participating student athletes were recruited from six sports upper secondary schools in Finland, which offer equal competitive sport opportunities for both genders. The results showed that school- and sports- task values are strongly related to each other. Males valued school less th…

The effects of a 10-week combined maximal and explosive strength and high-intesity endurance training period on neuromuscular performance and 3K time…

2015

Combined strength and endurance training has been noted to produce significant improvements in strength and endurance performances in both men and women. However, there seems to be moderate inhibitory effect regarding strength adaptations, especially considering power production. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of a 10-week combined maximal and explosive strength and high-intensity endurance training period on neuromuscular performance and 3K time-trial in males and females. A total of 19 healthy recreationally trained subjects (Males: M= 10, Females: F= 9) completed a 10-week combined strength and endurance training period. All subjects trained twice a week strength and…

Peruskoulun rehtoreiden johtamisen eroja : sukupuolinen näkökulma

2004

Riitta Juusenahon väitöskirjan mukaan sukupuoli määrittää peruskoulun rehtorin työtä joiltain osin. Vaikka koulujen rehtorit tekevät kaikkialla pääosin samaa työtä, johtavat kouluja, heidän sukupuolensa mukainen tapa ratkoa ja hoitaa eteen tulevia asioita korostui. Haastateltujen rehtoreiden koulujen opetussuunnitelmiin perustuvien suunnitelmien (opspesujen) tutkiminen paljasti naisrehtoreiden eroavan edukseen miesrehtoreista mm. oppilashuollollisten asioiden sekä kodin ja koulun yhteistyön tarkan kirjaamisen suhteen.Naisrehtorit painottivat pehmeitä arvoja, neuvottelua ja kykyään olla helposti lähestyttävä johtaja. Miesrehtorit painottivat johtamisessaan auktoriteetin saannin helppoutta ja…

Intuition and entrepreneurs : a phenomenological study of managerial intuition of Finnish family entrepreneurs

2006

Business environments have changed rapidly especially during the last decades. Nowadays there are many unpredictable and uncertain factors in managing businesses. In addition, rational thinking and decision-making based on facts and figures have traditionally been emphasised in business. However, due to the changing environments one can not always know facts well enough in order to be sure about the choices. Sometimes decisions have to be made very quickly, or there is no explicit knowledge regarding a problem, or there is neither enough time nor enough information. Therefore, managers, and entrepreneurs as managers, need to rely more often on their intuition in making decisions and solving…

Dietary acid load and acid-base balance in exercise and health from adolescence to late adulthood

2018

This thesis investigated whether dietary acid load has either short-term (4 to 7 days) or prolonged (12 weeks) effects on acid-base status at rest and during submaximal and maximal aerobic exercise; whether the effects of dietary acid load on acid-base status differ between adolescents, young adults and the elderly, and between men and women; and whether the changes in acid-base balance have a further effect on aerobic exercise performance. These questions were addressed in three different study settings in healthy and recreationally active men and women. In studies 1 and 2, which followed a crossover study design, participants were assigned in randomized order to follow a diet with a low o…
