In order to examine just how well the right to use one’s own language actually manifests in Finnish society, I examined the developments of language related rights internationally and in Europe and how those developments manifested in Finland. I also went over Finland’s linguistic history, seeing the developments that have lead us to today when Finland has three separate language act to deal with three different language situations. I analyzed the relevant legislations and by examining the latest language barometer studies, I wanted to find out what the real situation of these language and their identities are. I was also interested in the overall linguistic situation in Finland, which is affected by rising xenophobia and the issues surrounding the ILO 169.

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

    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.
