Mortality among forensic psychiatric patients in Finland. Nord J Psychiatry 2015;69:25 – 27. Background: Both mental illness and criminality are associated with higher risk of early death, yet the mortality among forensic psychiatric patients who are affected by both mental illness and criminal behaviour has scarcely been studied. Aims: To analyse the mortality among all patients who were committed to a compulsory forensic psychiatric hospital treatment in Finland between 1980 and 2009. Mortality was analysed according to the age when the patient was committed to forensic treatment. Results: A total of 1253 patients were included, of which 153 were females and 1100 were males. The mean follow-up time in this study was 15.1 years, and 351 (28%) had died during the follow-up period.

  • FI – Finland Statistics Finland Publishes a Nationwide House Price
    FI – Finland Statistics Finland publishes a nationwide house price index for existing, single-family dwellings. Price data is collected from asset transfer statements that are compiled by the National Board of Taxes. The data that is first published for a given quarter is preliminary and represents approximately two thirds of the total transactions for that period, though coverage varies by area. This data is revised with the publication of the following quarter. Prices are expressed on a per- square meter basis and quoted in euros. Data prior to 1999 has been converted to Euros using the irrevocable exchange rate of 5.94573 Finnish markka per euro. A dwelling refers to a room or suite of rooms that is equipped with a kitchen, kitchenette or cooking area and is intended for year-round habitation. An existing dwelling refers to a dwelling that has been completed prior to one year before the examined year. A price index on new dwellings did not become available until 2005. Statistics Finland combines hedonic and mix-adjusted methods. The mix-adjustment method cannot control for all changes in the quality of dwellings sold. Quality adjustments are achieved by grouping dwellings by similar characteristics, but adding groups causes the number of observations to decline. Hedonic regressions can be used with a broad based grouping of dwellings to control for the varying dwelling characteristics that remain. Dwellings are first grouped by type, number of rooms and location, as these characteristics are thought to be the biggest determinants of price. A hedonic regression is then used to estimate the price index of each group, with the base period of 1985 used as a reference for dwelling characteristics.

  • Module 05: Case Study Evaluation of Innovation System in Finland
    Introduction to Innovation Policy for Developing Countries Module 05: Case Study Evaluation of Innovation System in Finland World Bank Institute Presentation Script Introduction to Innovation Policy for Developing Countries Module 05: Case Study: Evaluation of Innovation System in Finland Presentation Script Evaluation in Finland We now look at Finland, which has a strong tradition of M&E. As a strong economy with an advanced M&E system that is continuously used to update policies and programs, the Finnish experience suggests that there is some correlation between evaluation and economic performance. The M&E system has also proven itself capable of keeping up with changing conceptions of what innovation policy is and what it can accomplish over the decades. Evaluation in Finland – History It is worth noting that the impulse to M&E in Finland was prompted by the recession of the early 1970s; however, although the initial focus was on the accountability of public spending, evaluation over time became much more of a learning tool. Evaluation was introduced by the Academy of Finland, which is a system of research councils. Inspiration was taken from the practices of the Swedish Natural Science Research Council, although it went further by evaluating whole areas of research regardless of whether or not they were funded by the Academy. Introduction to Innovation Policy for Developing Countries Module 05: Case Study: Evaluation of Innovation System in Finland Presentation Script TEKES, the national agency for technology development in Finland, undertook its first evaluation in 1988, following a request by the State Audit Office to audit TEKES’ activities.
