Electrophysiological evidence for the effectiveness of images versus text in warnings

2023

AbstractWarning sign plays an important role in risk avoidance. Many studies have found that images are better warnings than text, while others have revealed flaws of image-only warning signs. To better understand the factors underlying the effectiveness of different types of warning signs (image only, text only, or image and text), this study adopted event-related potential technology to explore the differences at the neurocognitive level using the oddball paradigm and the Go/No-go paradigm. Together, the behavioral and electroencephalogram results showed that text-only warnings had the lowest effectiveness, but there was little difference between the image-only and image-and-text warnings…

Rinse, Repeat. Paratextual Poetics of Literary Twitter Collage Retweeted

2019

This essay studies what happens to the poetics of a text that was first written on or for a certain internet platform when it is later copy-pasted to a different literary medium – that of an edited and printed book. The main target of the discussion is Finnish author Karri Kokko’s conceptual literary work Retweeted (2016), a print-on-demand book, the roots of which are firmly in both the traditions of print media and the digital interfaces of the social media platform Twitter. The analysis pays close attention to the medial qualities of both Twitter and the conceptual novel that draws material from it. The essay aims to highlight the poetic qualities of the material produced and circulated …

Revisiting the role of embedding in Systemic Functional Linguistics : Construing depth in “big texts”

2021

This paper is concerned with exploring the role of embedded genres in expanding the meaning potential of long texts, focusing especially on complex tertiary assignments. A significant body of work has evolved in Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) on modelling “big texts” as macrogenres since Martin (1994: 29) posed the question how texts “get bigger than a page”. However, based on detailed genre analyses of high-scoring undergraduate business country reports, this paper illustrates that not all big texts are macrogenres made up of elemental genre complexes. Analogising from clause grammar, it will show that these texts unfold through multiple layers of embedded genres in their generic st…

Effects of Prior Knowledge on Comprehending Text About Learning Strategies

2021

Good knowledge and skills in using different learning strategies is important for learning with understanding and even more critical during distance learning. Findings indicate that students tend to use and value ineffective learning strategies, thus there is need to educate students. This study aimed to analyze the possibility of using refutation text on learning strategies that students can study independently. The study examined how reported use of learning strategies and preexisting beliefs about the effectiveness of rehearsal and comprehension-oriented strategies relate to the comprehension of text about learning strategies, and how text comprehension is related to later use of strateg…

Kielitietoisuuden kautta kohti ihmiskunnan suuria kysymyksiä

2017

Tässä kirjoituksessa pohditaan sitä, mikä on kielitietoisuuden ja kielten yhteiskunnallinen merkitys, miten kielentutkimuksen tieteidenvälisyys toteutuu sekä mitkä ovat niitä keinoja, joilla kielentutkimus voi käsitellä ihmiskunnan suuria kysymyksiä. Kirjoitus perustuu Turun yliopiston kieli- ja käännöstieteiden laitoksella keväällä 2017 järjestetyn tiedepäivän paneelikeskusteluun, johon kirjoittajat osallistuivat. nonPeerReviewed

Doctoral students' everyday experiences in the changing contexts

2014

Doctoral education is a part of society´s operation, which is affected by multiple factors and development. Many studies examine doctoral education from the macro level with the emphasis on financing, effectiveness or internationality, and separated from the context. Forming a comprehensive understanding also needs an examination at the micro level and making visible the doctoral students´ experiences. It is valuable to pay attention to the everyday and concrete level of operation. I concentrate on the personal lifecourse experience of the women and on the stories based on them and how the macro and micro level are in constant dialogue. I examine the new everyday conventions made by women t…
