Associations of Work-Family Conflict with Family-Specific, Work-Specific, and Well-Being-Related Variables in a Sample of Polish and Ukrainian Adults…
2022
The conflict between work and family demands increased during the COVID-19 pandemic due to changes in lifestyle related to the lockdown. This study examines the associations between work-family conflict (WFC) and family-work conflict (FWC) with work-specific, family-specific, and well-being-related variables during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results may be used in practice to improve the well-being of employees by adjusting home-based work and family areas of life to dynamic changes during the pandemic. The sample of 736 adults from Poland (53.26%) and Ukraine (46.74%), aged between 19 and 72 (M = 39.40; SD = 10.80), participated in the study. The cross-sectional study wa…
Associations of Children’s Close Reading Distance and Time Spent Indoors with Myopia, Based on Parental Questionnaire
2022
Purpose: To study the association of parents’ reports about their children’s near work and outdoor habits with myopia in their children. Methods: Data from a questionnaire study conducted in 1983 among Finnish schoolchildren were reanalyzed. Vision screening had been performed for all the schoolchildren (n = 4961) in the 1st, 5th, and 8th grades (7-, 11-, and 15-year-olds) in an area of Central Finland. The questionnaire, including information about myopia, was returned by 4305 (86.7%) participants. Items concerned parents’ estimates of their child’s habitual reading distance, time spent indoors as compared with age peers, daily near work, outdoors time, and parents&…
Asociación entre la flexoextensión del tobillo y el control postural del adulto mayor. Efectos de la terapia manual aplicada para su tratamiento y re…
2019
Introducción: Según se envejece aparecen ciertas limitaciones en el organismo que van a contribuir a que el control postural disminuya y aparezca un mayor riesgo de sufrir una caída. La literatura resalta la importancia de la movilidad articular del tobillo en flexoextensión para garantizar el control postural y reducir el riesgo de caídas del adulto mayor. Sin embargo, el grado de asociación entre estos factores, y el estudio exhaustivo de terapias que recuperen posibles limitaciones, permanecen poco estudiado, siendo necesario continuar con la investigación. Objetivos: Comprobar el grado de asociación existente entre el rango articular en flexoextensión del tobillo y el control postural d…
Sallittu keveys : lifestyletoimittajan ammatti-identiteetin muodostuminen ja rooli uutistoimituksissa
2017
Elämäntapa- ja palvelujournalismi ovat hivuttautuneet osaksi mediamaailmaa, mutta sitä ja sen tekijöitä, lifestyletoimittajia, on tutkittu vasta vähän. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää uransa alkupuolella olevien lifestyletoimittajien ammatti-identiteetin muodostumista ja heidän käsityksiään omasta roolistaan toimittajina. Tutkielman näkökulmaa rajaa kaksi tutkimuskysymystä, joihin työ pyrkii etsimään vastauksia. Mikä on lifestyletoimittajien käsitys omasta ammatti-identiteetistään ja roolistaan suhteessa ammattietiikkaan, työn motivaatioon ja tulevaisuuteen? Miten elämäntapajournalismi toteutuu osana uutistoimi- tuksia? Tutkimuksen teoriaosuus on jaettu kahtia. Ensimmäisessä perehdy…
Lexically specific vs. productive constructions in L2 Finnish
2020
ABSTRACTIt is assumed from a usage-based perspective that learner language constructions emerge from natural language use in social interaction through exemplar learning. In L1, young learners have been shown to develop their constructions from lexically specific, formulaic expressions into more productive, abstract schemas. A similar developmental path has been shown for L2 development, with some exceptions. The aim of the current study is to explore to what extent the default assumption holds for L2 learning. The development of two constructions was traced in four adults learning L2 Finnish. Free-response data, collected weekly over a period of 9 months, were used to investigate the produ…
Learning and using English and Swedish beyond the classroom : activity systems of six upper secondary school students
2012
Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli katsoa englannin ja ruotsin oppimista koulun ulkopuolella toiminnan teorian ja erityisesti Engeströmin (1987, 1999) toimintajärjestelmämallin näkökulmasta, josta aihetta ei ole aiemmin lähestytty. Tutkimus vastaa seuraaviin kysymyksiin: 1) Ovatko abiturientit enemmän kielenkäyttäjiä vai -oppijoita englannissa ja ruotsissa koulun ulkopuolella? 2) Millaisia eroja ja yhtäläisyyksiä heidän toiminnassaan on englannissa ja ruotsissa? 3) Mitkä tekijät selittävät aktiivisuutta ja passiivisuutta? Tutkimus on toteutettu tapaustutkimuksena. Tutkimusaineistona on kuusi puolistrukturoitua haastattelua. Haastateltavat ovat 18-vuotiaita lukion kolmannen vuosikurssin opi…
THE CHAPERONE SYSTEM IN SALIVARY GLAND DEVELOPMENT
2023
The chaperone system (CS) canonical function is to maintain protein homeostasis. Proper folding of nascent peptides is crucial in developing tissue. The chief components of the CS are 95th National Congress of the Italian Society for Experimental Biology | Trieste, Italy, 12-15 April 2023Non-commercial use only the molecular chaperones, which play key roles in development as indicated by their presence in embryonic tissue as early as at two-cell stage. However, scarce information on the CS in developing tissues is available, especially at advanced stages of embryogenesis and its role is not fully understood. In our previous study, we reported the presence of molecular chaperones in the duct…
The link of a finitely determined map germ from R 2 to R 2
2010
Let f: (R2, 0) → (R2, 0) be a finitely determined map germ. The link of f is obtained by taking a small enough representative f: U ⊂ R2 → R2 and the intersection of its image with a small enough sphere Sε1 centered at the origin in R2. We will describe the topology of f in terms of the Gauss word associated to its link.

Evolutionary advantage conferred by an eukaryote-to-eukaryote gene transfer event in wine yeasts
2015
Although an increasing number of horizontal gene transfers have been reported in eukaryotes, experimental evidence for their adaptive value is lacking. Here, we report the recent transfer of a 158-kb genomic region between Torulaspora microellipsoides and Saccharomyces cerevisiae wine yeasts or closely related strains. This genomic region has undergone several rearrangements in S. cerevisiae strains, including gene loss and gene conversion between two tandemly duplicated FOT genes encoding oligopeptide transporters. We show that FOT genes confer a strong competitive advantage during grape must fermentation by increasing the number and diversity of oligopeptides that yeast can utilize as a s…
