- Drinking masculinities as described in Finnish and Swedish group interviewsThis article works from the assumption that women’s emancipation, increased alcohol use and appearance on traditionally male-dominated drinking scenes in the Nordic countries have combined to challenge the masculine hegemony of drinking and brought greater diversity to gendered drinking styles and in general added to the complexity of the phenomenon. The assumption regarding the diversification of drinking styles is tested in the light of data collected in focus group interviews. The aim is to find out what kinds of drinking masculinities are constructed by Finnish (N=16) and Swedish (N=19) informants in different age groups as they discuss different drinking styles that they consider culturally possible for men and women in different situations.

- Do the alcohol-related perceptions of teenagers and parents coincide?This study analyzes how Finnish teenagers and parents perceive different drinking situations and the appropriateness of these situations. The focus is on whether teenagers and parents perceive the situations similarly or differently.The data consist of focus group interviews with teenagers aged 14–17 years (n=4 groups, n=31 participants), and parents (n=4 groups, n=19). Three pictures portraying different drinking situations were presented to the participants, who were asked to describe (1) what kind of situation the picture depicts, (2) whether the way of drinking in the picture was acceptable or not, and (3) whether they identified with the situation or not.Our analysis showed that teenagers and parents defined the situations similarly and applied rather similar criteria when assessing the appropriateness of drinking. The most important criteria related to the amount and the way of drinking, and whether or not children were present in the situation. Our analysis suggests that the alcohol-related perceptions of parents and teenagers are similar and hence they should not have difficulties in understanding each other’s views.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Physically demanding work in middle-aged and ageing employees is associated with poor physical functioning. Also younger employees have limitations in their daily functioning, but there is no research on the associations between physically demanding work and physical functioning during early careers. This study investigated whether physically demanding work is associated with physical functioning in employees aged 18–39 years. The data were collected in autumn 2017 from the City of Helsinki employees born in or after 1978 (n=11,459). Out of them, 5,111 responded online or via a mailed paper survey. We included those 4,585 (40% of all those invited) who had responded to all necessary questions for the present study. Physical functioning was assessed by the SF-36 questionnaire, and poor physical functioning was defined as the lowest quarter of the physical functioning score (PCS ≤48.80, total scale 1-100). Physical workload was determined with a multi-part question about factors related to work and the work environment, and the degree of perceived harm caused by them. The physical workload scores were divided into thirds. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the associations between physically demanding work and physical functioning, while adjusting for health behaviours, sleep problems, body mass index, education and marital status. Poor physical functioning was associated with physically moderately (OR 1.70, 95%CI 1.43-2.00) and highly (OR 3.56 [2.70-4.70]) demanding work. In addition, frequent sleep problems (OR 1.90 [1.67-2.22]), obesity (OR 1.89 [1.56-2.30]) and low education (OR 1.37 [1.10-1.71]) were associated with poor physical functioning. Tackling physically demanding work may play a role in maintaining physical functioning (and subsequently) working capacity.Keywords: physical functioning, work load, young workers, health behaviour

Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The study explores how the students exposed to the school shootings at Jokela School Centre and the Kauhajoki unit of the Seinäjoki Joint Municipal Authority for Education (Vocational Education Centre Sedu and Seinäjoki University of Applied Sciences) have coped with their experiences and how they have received support and care over a follow-up period of two years. The key research questions involve how those who experienced the trauma have recovered, what mental symptoms they have, what mental disorders they have developed and how their functional capacity has been affected. Background factors, the trauma exposure and the support provided are also studied, including their relationship to a good recovery on the one hand and prolonged symptoms on the other. Implementation of the study: Survey forms for the study were circulated at both institutions and in comparison institutions on three occasions: four months after the events, one year after the first survey, and two years after the first survey. Also, more than 200 students were interviewed at Jokela and Kauhajoki. The study was conducted in co-operation with the personnel at the institutions and integrated into the aftercare. Research materials and methods: The study compares data obtained from students at Jokela School Centre to those obtained from students at Pirkkala Upper-Level Comprehensive School and Upper Secondary School, and data obtained from students at the Kauhajoki unit of the Seinäjoki Joint Municipal Authority for Education to those obtained from comparison student group in Kerava. The research materials were also pooled for analyses. The data were collected using assessment forms including questions on background information, academic performance, a posttraumatic symptom survey (the Impact of Event Scale, IES), a general symptom questionnaire (GHQ-12), and questions on substance use, social support, the need for support and care, actual support and care received and whether the latter were adequate. Respondents were also asked about the impact of the media and how stressful they felt the survey to be. Interviews were performed with semistructured instruments to identify possible psychiatric disorders. Findings: The most likely outcome for students exposed to the school shootings was recovering from the shocking events. For the majority, the support from family and friends was significant. Also, immediate crisis help and psychosocial support at the acute stage had reached a significant percentage of the students. These forms of support were adequate to most of those with milder exposure. Those at highest risk of developing symptoms had been provided with acute crisis help indicating that their recognition is possible at an early stage. Most respondents felt that the support they received over the follow-up period had been sufficient. Additional resources for aftercare were phased out during this period, and responsibility for support and care was transferred to primary healthcare and social services. Some ten percent of the students polled continued to exhibit trauma-induced symptoms at the end of the follow-up period. They may need further treatment, particularly psychotherapy and other psychiatric care, for years to come. Being interviewed by reporters was associated with higher risk of trauma-induced symptoms. Also, extensive monitoring of news coverage seemed to correlate with mental symptoms in respondents who had been in the proximity of the events. Respondents did not consider participation in this study to have been unduly stressful; indeed, many felt that it was beneficial for them. The study allowed identification of needs for referral to treatment in some cases, and the students can therefore be considered to have benefited from participating in the study. The summary of findings includes the research team's recommendations on how to provide support and care for those experiencing traumatic events.
