Mental Skills of an Athlete as a Resource of Professional Longevity in Sport
2021
The aim of the study was to assess associations between dimensions of mental skills, psychological readiness and predictors of career longevity among current athletes. Mental skills dimensions were measured with the Ottawa Mental Skills Assessment Tool (OMSAT). The psychological predictors of athletic career longevity were measured with the Athletic Coping Skills Scale-28 (the ACSI-28) producing scores for seven coping skills and with the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2) which produced scores for confidence in competition. Overall, 253 current athletes (average age 22 years) of various competitive levels (classified to 5 groups according to the national sport classification sy…
Different-day and same-session combined strength and endurance training : adaptations in neuromuscular and cardiorespiratory performance, body compos…
2017
This thesis investigated 1) acute neuromuscular and hormonal responses to combined strength and endurance loadings with different orders and their long-term adaptations (women), 2) adaptations in neuromuscular, hormonal, cardiorespiratory and health variables following 24 weeks of volume-equated protocols of combined training (men and women). Subjects were assigned to one of three groups: strength and endurance training on different days (DD: men n=21, women n=18), training in the same-session with either endurance before strength (ES: men n=16, women n=15) or vice versa (SE: men n=18, women n=14). DD trained 4-6 d·wk-1 with strength and endurance on alternating days. ES and SE trained 2-3 …
Nutritional intake and anthropometric characteristics are associated with endurance performance and markers of low energy availability in young femal…
2023
Background Low energy availability (LEA) can have negative performance consequences, but the relationships between LEA and performance are poorly understood especially in field conditions. In addition, little is known about the contribution of macronutrients to long-term performance. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate if energy availability (EA) and macronutrient intake in a field-based situation were associated with laboratory-measured performance, anthropometric characteristics, blood markers, training volume, and/or questionnaire-assessed risk of LEA in young female cross-country (XC) skiers. In addition, the study aimed to clarify which factors explained performance. Metho…

"Pysäyttää ajatukset hetkeen, kun astuu luontoon ja retkeen" : luonnossa ulkoilun yhteydet työhyvinvointiin
2017
Tutkimuksemme tavoitteena oli tutkia, miten työntekijät kokevat luonnossa ulkoilun vaikuttavan heidän työhyvinvointiinsa. Selvitimme myös millaisia yhteyksiä luonnon koetuilla vaikutuksilla sekä luontovierailun kestolla oli työhyvinvointiin, jota tarkastelimme työn imun ja työuupumuksen käsitteiden avulla. Lisäksi tarkastelimme luonnon koettujen vaikutusten yhteyttä luontovierailun kestoon. Tutkimuksemme aineisto koostui kyselytutkimuksesta, johon vastasi 783 työntekijää 13 eri organisaatiosta kevään ja syksyn 2016 aikana. Luonnossa ulkoilun koettuja vaikutuksia työhyvinvointiin tutkittiin avoimella kysymyksellä, jonka vastaukset luokiteltiin. Pearsonin korrelaatiokertoimen avulla tarkastel…
Ternimaitovalmisteen vaikutus veren aminohappopitoisuuksiin levon ja voimaharjoituksen yhteydessä
2002
Niina Vehviläinen, 2001. Ternimaitovalmisteen vaikutus veren aminohappopitoisuuksiin levon ja voimahatjoituksen yhteydessä. Liikuntafysiologian pro-gradu -tutkielma. Jyväskylän yliopisto, liikuntabiologian laitos, 110s. Tämän työn tarkoituksena oli tutkia Dynamic™ Colostrum (Hi-Col, Oulu) ternimaitovalmisteen vaikutusta veren aminohappopitoisuuksiin levon ja voimahatjoituksen yhteydessä. Lisäksi tarkasteltiin ternimaitovalmisteen mahdollista vaikutusta kuormitusryhmän suorituskykyyn voimaharjoituksen yhteydessä. Tutkimus toteutettiin satunnaistettuna kaksoissokkotutkimuksena. Koehenkilöinä oli 12 tervettä, kuntoilumielessä liikuntaa harrastavaa 20-35 -vuotiasta miestä. Koehenkilöt jaettiin …
Preparation of pH sensitive poly(vinilydenefluoride) porous membranes by grafting of acrylic acid assisted by supercritical carbon dioxide
2010
Aim of this work is to study the preparation of pH sensitive membranes for biomedical applications via thermal induced graft polymerization of acrylic acid (AA) on poly(vinilydenefluoride) (PVDF) assisted by supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2). Using scCO2 as a solvent and swelling agent, the monomer and initiator (benzoyl peroxide) could diffuse faster and distribute more uniformly into the polymer matrix. A better control of the final molecular architecture should be achieved because bimolecular grafting reactions are accelerated with respect to chain degradation processes. Commercial hydrophobic PVDF porous matrixes were selected as model membranes. Grafted polymers were characterized b…

The aggregation of sustainability performance measuring at company level : a case study
2015
Industrial companies face constant scrutiny about their sustainability performance development and comprehensive sustainability performance measuring is demanded from them. Companies are measuring their sustainability performance with various and multitude indicators, but it is difficult to look into the overall sustainability performance of companies based on plentiful and variable sustainability measures. There is no universally accepted method to measure the overall sustainability performance of a company, though tools for this purpose are developed. This qualitative case study research aims to shed light on whether the sustainability indicators of a case company could be aggregated in a…
Sustainable Art for Sustainable Cities: A Performance and a Screening Afternoon at EDRA50 Brooklyn
2019
On the occasion of EDRA50 Brooklyn, held at NYU Tandon School of Engineering and devoted to the topic of “Sustainable Urban Environments: Research, Design and Planning for the Next 50 Years”, it was decided that a collateral program of sustainable art activities could widely enrich the conference impact and scope. Furthermore, it provided an interesting opportunity for conference attendees, mostly involved in the fields of research, education and planning, to discover projects or ideas that spring from creative practice and evaluate emerging trends such as the visual arts devoted to sustainability.
