Supportive Communication in the Workplace
2019
Supportive communication is a form of social interaction that produces resources with which to solve situational problems and manage emotional strain.

Negative emotional consequences of labour market activation policies for long-term unemployed young adults in Finland
2021
PurposeThis article deals with the negative emotional consequences of active labour market policies (ALMPs) for long-term unemployed young adults in Finland.

The Promise and Deception of Participation in Welfare Services for Unemployed Young People
2018
This study examined the role of welfare services in the participative citizenship of young people under 30 years of age outside the labour market. Thematic content analysis of the government’s white papers regarding participation policies, as well as participatory action research projects in two Finnish towns, were used to identify factors that enable or hinder participation for this group of service users. The paradigm of participation was critically examined with reference to the theoretical framework of Max Horkheimer and Theodor Adorno’s “dialectic of Enlightenment”, which proposes the parallel existence of the promise and the deception of Enlightenment. The results indicated that user …

2023
COVID-19 rapidly and extensively changed the normal everyday practices of societies, and there is no going back to the past.

As a theoretical framework, we use the concept of the university student engagement inventory (USEI), which includes behavioral, cognitive, and emotional dimensions. The data were collected during the COVID-19 pandemic from university students (N = 35) via an online survey and analyzed using a thematic content analysis. According to th…

Nie jest to tylko zagadnienie istnienia bądź jego braku roszczenia cywilnoprawnego po stronie syndyka. Rzeczywistą istotą przedstawionego dylematu jest pytanie o dopuszczalność ograniczenia ustawowego atrybutu Krajowej Spółdzielczej Kasy Oszczędnościowo-Kredytowej wykonywanego w interesie publicznym. Fundusz stabilizacyjny odgrywa bowiem szczególną rolę w całym systemie finansowym.
