Avhandlingens övergripande syfte är att granska relationerna mellan olika undervisningsmetoder och studenters informationsbeteende, vilket i denna undersökning inbegriper även deras informationskompetens. Vikten av att undersöka dessa förhållanden kan motiveras med att både kunskap om de faktorer som påverkar utvecklandet av informationskompetens och forskning som tar fram olika mönster i studenternas informationsbeteende behövs för att sådana inlärningsmiljöer, informationssystem och -tjänster som stöder studenternas inlärning skall kunna utvecklas. I avhandlingen söks svar på följande frågor: 1. Vilka faktorer i inlärningsmiljöerna, dvs. problembaserad inlärningsmiljö (pbl) och traditionell inlärningsmiljö, påverkar informationsbeteendet och hur påverkar dessa faktorer? 2. Hurdan information behövs i inlärningsprocessen? Hur anskaffas informationen? Vilka informationskanaler och -källor används och hur används de? 3. Hur används information i samband med inlärningen? I undersökningen används en kvalitativ forskningsansats och det huvudsakliga undersökningsmaterialet består av intervjuer med 16 medicine studerande som studerar enligt en problembaserad inlärningsmetod och 15 studerande som studerar i ett traditionellt ämnesbaserat utbildningsprogram. Den empiriska delen av undersökningen utfördes i slutet av 1990-talet. Resultaten indikerar att en problembaserad inlärningsmiljö utvecklar förståelsen av kunskap, aktiverar informationsanskaffningen och informationsanvändningen, samt främjar utvecklingen av studenternas informationskompetens såsom den definierades i denna undersökning. Högre nivå av informationskompetens och aktiv informationsanvändning förekom emellertid i båda utbildningsprogrammen även bland studenter som hade påbörjat de fördjupade studiernas slutarbete, vilket framhäver motivationens och de verkliga informationsbehovens roll i informationsbeteendet och i utvecklandet av informationskompetensen.

The Theorica Pantegni is a medieval medical textbook written in Latin. The author was Constantine the African (Constantinus Africanus), a monk of Tunisian origin. He compiled the work in the latter half of the eleventh century at the Benedictine monastery of Monte Cassino in Italy. - Manuscript Eö.II.14, containing the Theorica Pantegni published here, belongs today to the National Library of Finland. It can be dated to the third quarter of the twelfth century, which makes it one of the earliest surviving exemplars of the Theorica Pantegni: over seventy manuscripts of the work survive, of which about fifteen can be dated to the twelfth century. Manuscript Eö.II.14 is written in black ink on 210 parchment leaves (recto and verso), amounting to 420 pages, in pre-Gothic script. - The present text is a transcription of Ms Eö.II.14. The goal is to provide the reader with an accessible text that is faithful to the original.

The subject of this dissertation, which belongs to the field of Classical Philology, are the definitions of the art of grammar found in Greek and Latin sources from the Classical era to the second century CE. Definitions survive from grammarians, philosophers, and general scholars. I have examined these definitions from two main points of view: how they are formed, and how they reflect the development of the art itself. Defining formed part of dialectic, in practice also of rhetoric, and was perceived as important from the Classical era onwards. Definitions of grammar seem to have become established as part of preliminary discussions, located at the beginning of grammatical manuals (tékhnai, artes). These discussions included certain principal notions of the art; in addition to the definition, a list of the parts of the art was also typically included. These lists were formed by two different methods: division (diaíresis, divisio) and partition (merismós, partitio). Many of the grammarians may actually have been unfamiliar with these methods, unlike the two most important scholars of the Late Republic, Varro and Cicero. Significant attention was devoted to the question whether the art of grammar is based on lógos or empeiría. This epistemological question had its roots in medical theories, which were prominent in Alexandria. In the history of the concept of grammatiké or grammatica, three stages become evident. In the Classical era, the Greek term is used to refer to a very concrete art of letters (grámmata); from the Hellenistic era onwards it refers to the art developed by the Alexandrian scholars, a matter of textual and literary criticism. Towards the end of the Hellenistic era, the grammarian also becomes involved with the question of correct language, which gradually begins to appear in the definitions as well.
