The impact of maternal weight in pregnancy on glucose metabolism in non-diabetic offspring in late adulthood

2019

The use of language in migrant stay-at-home parents’ process of integration : Experiences of inclusion and exclusion

2017

This paper examines the use of language and how it contributes to the experiences of inclusion and exclusion of recent migrant stay-at-home parents in Finland. The study shows how the use of language facilitates the integration process of newly arrived stay-at-home parents of migrant background and affects their experiences of social inclusion and/or exclusion. The study uses the translingual approach (Canagarajah, 2013) to shed light on the multilingual reality migrants are faced with in their new surroundings. The approach is ethnographic and the data is interpreted using data-driven conventional content analysis (Tuomi & Sarajärvi, 2009, pp. 108–113). The results suggest that English wor…

Vauvapalstat verkkoyhteisöinä ja yhteisöllisyyden muodostajina

2010

Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa tutustutaan pienten lasten vanhemmille suunnattuihin keskustelupalstoihin ja siihen millaisia verkkoyhteisöjä ne ovat. Lisäksi selvitettiin, saavatko keskusteluihin osallistujat niistä yhteisöllisyyden tunteita. Aihe valittiin yleisen kiinnostuksen lisäksi siksi, että se koettiin ajankohtaiseksi ja tärkeäksi sekä Suomessa, tästä näkökulmasta, vähän tutkituksi. Yhteiskunnan muuttuessa keskustelupalstat ovat osoittautuneet merkittäviksi kommunikointivälineiksi ja mielipiteidenvaihtokanaviksi ja monet ihmiset etsivät enenevissä määrin itselleen seuraa verkosta. Näin ollen keskustelupalstat ovat suuressa roolissa yhteisöllisyyden muodostajina. Tämä luo myös keskust…
