University students’ stress and burnout risk
To answer to the need to find effective study-integrated ways to support university students’ well-being, an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) -based online course intervention was conducted with quasi-experimental waiting-list control group design. Our aim with this study was to provide new knowledge of the relations and changes in students’ self-assessed and physiological indicators of well-being and study ability during the course. Parti…
The Effects of a Digital Articulatory Game on the Ability to Perceive Speech-Sound Contrasts in Another Language
Digital and mobile devices enable easy access to applications for the learning of foreign languages. However, experimental studies on the effectiveness of these applications are scarce. Moreover, it is not understood whether the effects of speech and language training generalize to features that are not trained. To this end, we conducted a four-week intervention that focused on articulatory training and learning of English words in 6–7-year-old F…
Effects of maternal singing during kangaroo care on maternal anxiety, wellbeing, and mother-infant relationship after preterm birth
Introduction Preterm birth may disturb the typical development of the mother-infant relationship, when physical separation and emotional distress in the neonatal intensive care unit may increase maternal anxiety and create challenges for early interaction. This cluster-randomized controlled trial examined the effects of maternal singing during kangaroo care on mothers' anxiety, wellbeing, and the early mother-infant relationship after preterm bir…
Effects of live music therapy on heart rate variability and self-reported stress and anxiety among hospitalized pregnant women
Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the effects of live music therapy on heart rate variability (HRV) and self-reported stress and anxiety among hospitalized women with high-risk pregnancies. A total of 102 women at an antenatal ward due to pregnancy-related complications participated in a randomized controlled trial. Methods: The participants were randomly assigned to a music therapy group (N = 52) or control group (N = 50). The women in t…
Degree of Perceived Accent in Finnish as a Second Language for Turkish Children Born in Finland
This study investigated whether children born in a second language (L2) environment pronounce their L2 with foreign accents and, if so, when foreign accents first emerge. This study also examined the latest age of onset (AO) of extensive L2 experience at which native L2 pronunciation is possible and explored several factors that affect the degree of perceived accent for child L2 learners. Participants included 20 native Finnish children and 19 Fi…
Perception of emotional content in musical performances by 3–7-year-old children
The emotional content expressed through musical performance has become a widely-discussed topic in music psychology during the past two decades. However, empirical evidence regarding children’s abilities in interpreting the emotional content of a musical performance is sparse. We investigated 3–7-year-old children’s abilities to interpret the emotional content expressed through performance features in music. Short musical pieces previously rated …
Implicit Segmentation of a Stream of Syllables Based on Transitional Probabilities
Rapid effects of neonatal music therapy combined with kangaroo care on prematurely-born infants
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of music therapy (MT) combined with kangaroo care as dual treatment (DT) on the physiological responses of preterm infants compared with the influence of kangaroo care (KC) only. The infants' heart rate, respiration, transcutaneous O2 saturation and blood pressure were measured before, during, and after every therapy session. Sixty-one preterm infants born at a 24 to 36 week gestational age (…
The Perception of Phonological Quantity based on Durational Cues by Native Speakers, Second-language Users and Nonspeakers of Finnish
Some languages, such as Finnish, use speech-sound duration as the primary cue for a phonological quantity distinction. For second-language (L2) learners, quantity is often difficult to master if speech-sound duration plays a less important role in the phonology of their native language (L1). By comparing the categorization performance of native speakers of Finnish, Russian L2 users of Finnish, and non-Finnish-speaking Russians, the present study …
