Kokonaistuloksia

kokonaistuloksia is a Finnish term meaning “overall results” or “total outcomes.” It is widely used in contexts where multiple individual scores, measurements, or observations are combined to produce a single aggregate value. The word is formed from the root kumo- (implying a whole or sum) and tuloksen, the genitive form of tulos, meaning result.

In sports, kokonaistuloksia often refers to a team’s cumulative score in a tournament or the final standings after all matches have been played. For example, in a league where points are awarded for wins and draws, the kokonaistuloksia of each team determines their ranking at the season’s end. In individual competitions such as track and field or golf, athletes’ total scores across all heats or rounds are described as kokonaistuloksia.

Beyond athletics, the phrase appears in education to denote a student’s average grades or overall assessment within a course or curriculum. In business, it can refer to the aggregate performance metrics of a company, summarizing revenue, profit, and market share into a single impression of success.

Statistical analyses also use kokonaistuloksia when aggregating data points to produce a mean, median, or total that reflects the broader trend rather than isolated events. The term is integral to Finnish reporting, underscoring a holistic perspective on performance and outcomes.
