Pate Teikan toinen elämä
No full textIn the 1920s and 30s, the young Finnish nation was sourcing wealth from its forests. Modern cellulose factories were erected at a time when trees were still being felled by hand. This divided period saw the Finnish author Pentti Haanpää (1905–1955) publish his early short stories and write his famous Depression novel Noitaympyrä (The Vicious Circle), on the pages of which still lives the image of the free Finnish lumberjack, jätkä. This research takes a fresh angle on Haanpää’s prose and his descriptions of the time, with a special emphasis on the manuscript of the posthumously published Noitaympyrä (1956). The first chapter offers a close reading of Haanpää’s early short stories from around 1925, and the second compares his fictional story of the life in a lumberjacks’ log cabin with two texts by later authors. Why is it that Haanpää, who never experienced hard forest work himself, is often considered as its best portrayer? The third chapter introduces another literary description of forest industry, namely the building of the Kaukopää cellulose factory in the industrial novel by Erkki Ilmari from 1935. The book is read against the typical framework in contemporary Soviet construction novels, and analyzed as a parallel text to Haanpää’s Noitaympyrä. The fourth chapter concentrates on the writing process of Noitaympyrä and shows that its famous ending, where the protagonist Pate Teikka plans to cross the border to the USSR, is in fact a later addition. In the original version of the narrative, rejected by all publishers at the time, Pate Teikka takes no political stance and commits suicide. In the fifth chapter Haanpää’s socialist sympathies are studied in relation to his supporter Jarno Pennanen, the editor of the Soviet-backed literary journal Kirjallisuuslehti. Pennanen had joined the illegal Finnish Communist Party and was constantly under surveillance by Finnish police intelligence. He did not succeed in sending Haanpää to Moscow in 1932 but made a long trip himself two years later and visited, among other places, the White Sea Canal, a notorious Gulag showpiece. The sixth chapter proposes a speculative reading of the ending of Noitaympyrä, based on facts about real border crossing activity in the early 1930s, when thousands of Finns went illegally to Russia with hopes of better life. What if Pate Teikka had had second thoughts? The final chapter discusses his reappearance in a 1935 short story, now again working in Finland and once again at loggerheads with the ruthless forest company. The Second Life of Pate Teikka shows that Pentti Haanpää, despite being hailed as a national author, is still understudied, especially when it comes to primary research on his manuscripts
Emotional regulation and discipline practices of parents of adolescents in the framework of relational family model
No full textStarši mladostnikov imajo pomembno vlogo pri grajenju mladostnikove avtonomije in prevzemanju odgovornosti. Mladostnik se ravno ob starševem načinu soočanja s stresom in čustveno zahtevnimi situacijami uči primernega načina spoprijemanja in obvladovanja. Pri tem pa je bistvenega pomena odnos, ki ga starši vzdržujejo s svojim mladostnikom in slednjega izpostavlja tudi model relacijske družinske terapije, ki starše vidi kot ene najpomembnejših regulatorjev otrokovih čustvenih stanj. Ob tem pa je seveda pomembno, da starš zmore regulirati najprej svoja doživljanja in psihoorganska stanja. Kljub odlični teoretični osnovanosti modela pa še vedno primanjkuje raziskav s področja starševstva mladostnikom in zlasti doživljanja staršev ob čustveno zahtevnih situacijah z mladostnikom. V ta namen se avtor osredotoči na strategije discipliniranja mladostnika, vlogo čustev in čustvene regulacije pri starših, komunikacijo pri reševanju konfliktov v družini kot tudi naravo in intenzivnost konfliktov v odnosu med staršem in mladostnikom.
Disertacija tako v teoretičnem delu vsebuje pregled raziskovalnih področij, in sicer so predstavljeni relacijski kontekstualni modeli in teorije starševstva ter razvoja otroka, izzivi starševstva v obdobju adolescence, proces čustvene regulacije s poudarkom na uravnavanju čustev v odnosu med staršem in mladostnikom ter teološki pogled na starševstvo in vzgojo.
V empiričnem delu obsega dva raziskovalna dela. V prvem delu so na osnovi kvantitativne presečne korelacijske raziskave predstavljene ugotovitve o povezavah in razlikah v strategiji starševskega discipliniranja, komunikaciji z mladostnikom, regulaciji čustev, samospoštovanju in splošnem počutju in stilu starševstva v primarni družini glede na spol starša in tipologijo družine. Avtor je na vzorcu 484 staršev mladostnikov, ki so odgovarjali na vprašalnike PSA, FPSC, RSES, WHO5 in PBI, ugotovil, da obstajajo razlike glede na spol starša, tip družine in vrstni red mladostnika v starševski strategiji discipliniranja, komunikaciji, regulaciji čustev, matere in očetje pa se razlikujejo tudi v doživljanju samospoštovanja in splošnega počutja. Prav tako so rezultati pokazali, da je bolj učinkovita strategija pri discipliniranju mladostnika, kot tudi manj popustljiva in manj pretirano odzivna drža starša pri discipliniranju mladostnika, povezana z boljšo čustveno regulacijo, boljšo komunikacijo pri reševanju družinskih konfliktov, pa tudi z boljšim samospoštovanjem in splošnim počutjem pri starših mladostnikov.
V drugem delu je predstavljena kvazieksperimentalna raziskava, ki je ovrednotila učinkovitost razvite pilotske psihoedukativne skupine za starše mladostnikov, zasnovane po relacijskem družinskem modelu. Sodelovalo je 10 staršev oz. 8 družin, ki so izpolnjevali sledeče merske instrumente: lestvica starševstva (PSA), regulacija čustev (EAC), psihično počutje (WHO-5), Rosenbergova lestvica samospoštovanja (RSES), Ček lista konfliktnih vsebin (PIC), Evalvacijski vprašalnik srečanja (SEQ), končni evalvacijski vprašalnik skupine in demografski vprašalnik. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da se je pri udeležencih skupine statistično pomembno izboljšal način strategije discipliniranja mladostnika, zmanjšala se je stopnja konfliktnosti v odnosu z mladostnikom, izboljšala sta se tudi čustvena regulacija ter samospoštovanje. Analiza procesa učenja učinkovitega spoprijemanja s čustvi in ustreznih vzgojnih pristopov je pokazala na pet faz: (1) frustracija, (2) pogled na svoje starše, (3) pogled nase, (4) zdržanje v pogovoru z mladostnikom in (5) odrešenje.
Doktorsko delo tako z obsežno kvantitativno raziskavo kot tudi analizo procesa osredotočenosti na lastno regulacijo čustev in raziskovanjem lastnih intrapsihičnih dinamik pri starših pomembno prispeva k ovrednotenju učinkovitosti modela relacijske družinske terapije tudi v kontekstu psihoedukativnega skupinskega pristopa.Parents of adolescents play an important role in building their adolescent\u27s autonomy and teaching them to take responsibility. The way the parent models dealing with stress and emotionally challenging situations plays a factor in how the adolescent learns appropriate ways of coping and managing in their own lives. The relationship that parents have with their adolescents is crucial in this respect, and is also highlighted by the relational family therapy model, which sees parents as one of the most important regulators of their child\u27s emotional state. It is important, of course, that the parent is able to regulate his or her own experiences and psycho-organic states in the first place. Despite the excellent theoretical basis of this model, there is still a lack of research in the area of parenting adolescents and, in particular, parents\u27 experiences of emotionally challenging situations with their adolescents. To this end, the author focuses on strategies for disciplining adolescents, the role of emotions and emotion regulation in parents, communication in family conflict resolution, as well as the nature and intensity of conflict in the parent-adolescent relationship.
The theoretical part of the dissertation provides an overview of the research areas, namely relational contextual models and theories of parenting and child development, the challenges of parenting during adolescence, the process of emotion regulation with a focus on emotion regulation in the parent-adolescent relationship, and a theological perspective on parenting and parenting.
The empirical part of the dissertation comprises two research papers. In the first paper, findings on the associations and differences in parental discipline strategies, communication with the adolescent, emotion regulation, self-esteem and general well-being, and parenting style in the primary family according to the gender of the parent and the family typology are presented on the basis of a quantitative cross-sectional correlational study. Using a sample of 484 parents of adolescents who responded to the PSA, FPSC, RSES, WHO5 and PBI questionnaires, the author found that there were notable differences by parent gender, family type and adolescent order in parenting strategies of discipline, communication, and emotion regulation. Further, there were also differences between mothers and fathers in the experience of self-esteem and overall general well-being. The results also showed that a more effective strategy in disciplining the adolescent, as well as a less permissive and less overactive attitude of the parent in disciplining the adolescent, was associated with better emotion regulation, better communication in resolving family conflicts, as well as better self-esteem and general well-being in the parents of adolescents.
In the second paper, a quasi-experimental study is presented to evaluate the effectiveness of a developed pilot psychoeducational group for parents of adolescents, based on the relational family model. Participants in the study were 10 parents or 8 families who completed the following measurement instruments: parenting scale (PSA), emotion regulation (EAC), psychological well-being (WHO-5), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), Conflict Checklist (PIC), Meeting Evaluation Questionnaire (SEQ), final group evaluation questionnaire and demographic questionnaire. The results of the study showed that the group participants demonstrated statistically significant improvements in the way parents used strategies to discipline their adolescent, including, a decrease in the level of conflict in their relationship with their adolescent, improvements in emotional regulation, and improvements in self-esteem. After an analysis of the process of learning to deal effectively with emotions, five stages of appropriate educational approaches were revealed. These stages are: (1) frustration, (2) looking at parents, (3) looking at self, (4)holding back in talking to the adolescent, and (5) redemption.
The doctoral thesis, by means of an extensive quantitative study, as well as by analysing the process of focusing on one\u27s own emotion regulation combined with exploring the intrapsychic dynamics in parents, makes an important contribution to the evaluation of the effectiveness of the relational family therapy model in the context of a psychoeducational group approach

Predictive validity and classification accuracy of actigraph energy expenditure equations and cut-points in young children
Get PDFObjectives: Evaluate the predictive validity of ActiGraph energy expenditure equations and the classification accuracy of physical activity intensity cut-points in preschoolers. Methods: Forty children aged 4–6 years (5.3±1.0 years) completed a ~150-min room calorimeter protocol involving age-appropriate sedentary, light and moderate-to vigorous-intensity physical activities. Children wore an ActiGraph GT3X on the right mid-axillary line of the hip. Energy expenditure measured by room calorimetry and physical activity intensity classified using direct observation were the criterion methods. Energy expenditure was predicted using Pate and Puyau equations. Physical activity intensity was classified using Evenson, Sirard, Van Cauwenberghe, Pate, Puyau, and Reilly, ActiGraph cut-points. Results: The Pate equation significantly overestimated VO2 during sedentary behaviors, light physical activities and total VO2 (P<0.001). No difference was found between measured and predicted VO2 during moderate-to vigorous-intensity physical activities (P = 0.072). The Puyau equation significantly underestimated activity energy expenditure during moderate-to vigorous-intensity physical activities, light-intensity physical activities and total activity energy expenditure (P<0.0125). However, no overestimation of activity energy expenditure during sedentary behavior was found. The Evenson cut-point demonstrated significantly higher accuracy for classifying sedentary behaviors and light-intensity physical activities than others. Classification accuracy for moderate-to vigorous-intensity physical activities was significantly higher for Pate than others. Conclusion: Available ActiGraph equations do not provide accurate estimates of energy expenditure across physical activity intensities in preschoolers. Cut-points of ≤25counts⋅15 s−1 and ≥420 counts⋅15 s−1 for classifying sedentary behaviors and moderate-to vigorous-intensity physical activities, respectively, are recommended
The Reverse of the Curse: Paul, Wisdom, and the Law
No full textC. Marvin Pate examines the undisputed Pauline writings and demonstrates that wherever Paul employs the theme of wisdom, he does so to reverse the Deuteronomic curses and blessings. The covenantal blessings rest on those whose faith is in Christ, the wisdom of God, while the covenantal curses abide on those who attempt to obey the Torah. All of this results from Paul\u27s separation of Christ, God\u27s wisdom, from the law of Moses.
In addition, the author deals with two secondary themes. First of all, he calls the \u27new perspective\u27 on Paul into question. Secondly, a revised form of the \u27Tubingen theory\u27 is put forth. Both of these points call scholarship back to a more Lutheran reading of the subject of Pauline theology, emphasizing the importance of law and gospel therein.

У ході досліджень використовувалися загальноприйняті стандартизовані методики визначення фізико-хімічних, функціонально-технологічних, органолептичних та мікробіологічних показників. Розроблено чотири рецептури паштетів, які включали печінку курячу, 10…40 % пюре гарбуза мускатного сорту, 10 % тонкоподрібненої пасти з ядер волоських горіхів, цибулю ріпчасту, молоко та олію соняшникову. Підтверджено, що розроблені паштети мають високу харчову цінність, обумовлену досить значним вмістом білків (12..18 %), бета-каротину (1,85…7,28 мг/100 г), харчових волокон (1,07…1,72 %), легкозасвоюваних жирів. Встановлено, що модельні зразки мають кращий зовнішній вигляд, колір, соковитість, смак та запах, оптимальну консистенцію. Визначено, що збільшення кислотного і пероксидного чисел в дослідних зразках протікає повільніше, ніж у контрольному. Отримані результати дозволяють рекомендувати їх до впровадження в закладах ресторанного господарства.Data are given by nutrition experts emphasizes the need to develop and implement products enriched with protein content of animal and vegetable origin to the production. They are rich in high biologically active substances. Therefore, the purpose of the research is to provide scientific grounding for using recipes and technologies of nutrition-enriched pates on the basis of chicken liver with pumpkin and walnuts. It enables to enrich the product with carotinoids, dietary fibres, polyunsaturated fatty acids, minerals. Generally accepted standardized methodologies of identifying physical and chemical, organoleptic and microbiological indexes are used during the study. Four experimental recipes of pates containing chicken liver, 10…40 % of muscat pumpkin puree, 10 % of walnuts squash, onion, milk and sunflower oil were developed. The developed samples of pate are characterized by high nutritional value due to high protein content (12..18 %), beta carotene content (1,85…7,28 mg/100 g), dietary fibres (1,07…1,72 %), digestible fats. It has been confirmed by experimental data. The given samples of pate have the best original appearance, colour, succulence, taste and smell, optimum consistency. It has been proven that level of acids and peroxides in experimental samples increased slower than in control sample. This is due to the existence of vegetable origin antioxidants (pumpkin, walnuts, sunflower oil) in the improved pates. Pates are characterized by stable microbiological indexes under permitted rates during 48 hours of storage in a refrigerated state. Thus, the author comes to the conclusion that developed liver pates have high nutritional value and consumer properties. This fact enables to recommend them as for restaurants and everyday consumption for various sections of the population
