Jälkiliitteeseen

Jälkiliitteeseen is a Finnish term that translates to "appendix" or "addendum" in English. It refers to supplementary material that is added to the end of a document, such as a book, report, or thesis. The purpose of a jälkiliite is to provide additional information that is relevant to the main text but would disrupt the flow or readability if included within it.

Common types of content found in a jälkiliite include raw data, detailed methodologies, extensive tables, supplementary figures, code, questionnaires, or bibliographical references that are too lengthy for the main body. It serves as a resource for readers who wish to delve deeper into specific aspects of the work or verify the information presented.

The inclusion of a jälkiliite is a common practice in academic and technical writing to maintain a clear and concise main narrative while offering comprehensive supporting evidence. Each item within the jälkiliite is typically numbered or lettered and referenced from the main text, allowing readers to easily locate the relevant supplementary information. This structure ensures that the primary content remains focused and accessible, while all necessary details are readily available for those who need them.
