Ikääntyvät ja työhyvinvointi : 45-64-vuotiaiden työssäjaksamiskokemuksia
2017
The aim of this study was to offer an additional point of view of the age political discourse on work endurance, initiated by Finland’s public administration in the early 2000s. The personal experiences of the staff of a multi-professional work community were exploited to find clues to occupational well-being and endurance at work. Seventeen employees aged 45—64 at the actual work community were chosen as data or material for study, i.e. to be interviewed. A phenomenological-hermeneutical approach was applied to shed light on how to create well-being at work. Personal experiences of work endurance were analyzed and interpreted along the guidelines of the stepwise method used in phenomenolog…
Social support at work and job satisfaction among midwives: The mediating role of positive affect and work engagement.
2022
Aims: This study examined whether social support at work from superiors and colleagues is associated with positive affect at work, and whether work engagement creates a positive relationship with job satisfaction among midwives. We also investigated whether a positive affect and work engagement mediate the relationship between social support at work and job satisfaction. Design: This was a quantitative cross-sectional study. Methods: Data were collected from 163 midwives working in the Polish public healthcare system between June 2019 and December 2019. Results: There was a direct relationship between support from superiors and colleagues, positive affect at work, work engagement and job sa…
Patterns of teachers’ self-efficacy and attitudes toward inclusive education associated with teacher emotional support, collective teacher efficacy, …
2023
Teacher self-reports were used to investigate patterns of their self-efficacy and attitudes toward inclusive education in association with teacher emotional support, collective teacher efficacy, and collegial collaboration. Data included a sample of 100 Norwegian upper secondary school teachers from a mixed-methods cluster randomised controlled trial study. Latent profile analysis identified four subgroups: Low Self-Efficacy, Mid Attitudes (n = 19); High in All (n = 15); Mid Self-Efficacy, Low Attitudes (n = 36); and High Self-Efficacy, Mid Attitudes (n = 30). Teachers in the High in All profile reported being the most emotionally supportive, while the highest levels of collective efficacy …
L’attività normativa del governo nel periodo 2020-2021
2022
L’articolo descrive l’attività normativa del governo nel periodo 2020-2021. Il biennio è stato segnato dalle misure di contrasto alla pandemia da Covid-19. Di conseguenza, si prendono in considerazione, innanzitutto, le misure sanitarie adottate nel periodo emergenziale e concernenti tanto gli obblighi di distanziamento fisico e di contenimento dell’epidemia, quanto le disposizioni relative alle vaccinazioni e alla presentazione del «certificato verde» o green pass. Successivamente, si dà conto delle principali normative adottate a supporto dell’economia e del sistema imprenditoriale, distinguendo tra gli ausili finanziari destinati a ridurre l’impatto negativo della pandemia sulle aziende …
A Bayesian Mixed-Methods Analysis of Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction through Outdoor Learning and Its Influence on Motivational Behavior in Sc…
2017
Research has shown that outdoor educational interventions can lead to students' increased self-regulated motivational behavior. In this study, we searched into the satisfaction of basic psychological needs (BPN), i.e., autonomy support, the learners' experience of competence, and relatedness, both within the peer group and with their teachers, through outdoor learning. From 2014 to 2016, n = 281 students attended “research weeks” at a Student Science Lab in the Alpine National Park Berchtesgaden (Germany). The program is a curriculum-based one-week residential course, centered on a 2-day research expedition. Both before and after the course, students completed a composite questionnaire addr…
Classification of Targets Using Statistical Features from Range FFT of mmWave FMCW Radars
2021
Radars with mmWave frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) technology accurately estimate the range and velocity of targets in their field of view (FoV). The targeted angle of arrival (AoA) estimation can be improved by increasing receiving antennas or by using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). However, obtaining target features such as target type remains challenging. In this paper, we present a novel target classification method based on machine learning and features extracted from a range fast Fourier transform (FFT) profile by using mmWave FMCW radars operating in the frequency range of 77–81 GHz. The measurements are carried out in a variety of realistic situations, including p…
Acute heart failure due to giant left atrium: remote ECLS implantation for interhospital transfer and bridging to decision
2018
AbstractBackgroundRemote extracorporeal life support (ECLS) implantation and mobile ECLS are increasingly applied to enable the treatment of patients with refractory heart failure at specialized care centers. Giant left atrium (GLA) is a rare cause but may lead to acute and devastating heart failure.Case reportAcute heart failure that gave rise to a prolonged period of out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation in a patient who underwent remote ECLS implantation was found to have resulted from a GLA of impressive dimensions. There having no reasonable option for immediate surgical therapy, the patient was successfully bridged to recovery with a view to subsequent heart transplantation.Co…
Towards a reduction of greenhouse gas emission from wastewater treatment plants: a new plant wide experimental and modelling approach
2016
The increasing interest in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) has led to the development of new tools for their design and management. Studies about gas emissions show that the sewer collection and the wastewater treatment plant are anthropogenic GHG potential sources, so they contribute to the climate change and air pollution. A wastewater treatment plant receives wastewater from sewers and, while produces treated water for discharge into surface water, emits the three major greenhouse gases, CO2, CH4, and N2O, during the treatment processes, and additional amounts of CO2 and CH4 from the energy demands (Bani Shahabadi et al., 2009). Indeed, energy cons…
Personalization of Multicriteria Decision Support Systems
2018
The Dagstuhl Seminar 18031 Personalization in Multiobjective Optimization: An Analytics Perspective carried on a series of five previous Dagstuhl Seminars (04461, 06501, 09041, 12041 and 15031) that were focused on Multiobjective Optimization. The continuing goal of this series is to strengthen the links between the Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization (EMO) and the Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) communities, two of the largest communities concerned with multiobjective optimization today. Personalization in Multiobjective Optimization, the topic of this seminar, was motivated by the scientific challenges generated by personalization, mass customization, and mass data, and thus…
Overvåking av vitale parametere i sykehus : En sammenligning av manuelle og elektroniske overvåkingssystemer
2018
Masteroppgave i helse- og sosialinformatikk HSI500 - Universitetet i Agder 2018 Adverse events can be avoided by timely recognition of derangements in vital signs. Sørlandet Hospital HF (SSHF) has implemented an Early Warning Score System named "TILT"; 2Early identification of life-threatening conditions”. In 2017 SSHF started a project that tested wireless sensors for continuous monitoring of vital signs on wards. Patients were monitored by sensors and vital signs were also measured by traditional means during the project period. The aim of this study was to examine compliance with the vital signs monitoring protocol, and to examine the benefits of an electronic system. The following quest…
