seuloitujen

Seuloitujen is a Finnish word that arises from the verb seuloida, meaning to screen, filter, or select. It is the genitive plural form of the past passive participle seuloitu, and it functions as a descriptor for a subset of objects or people that have undergone a screening or filtering process. In texts, seuloitujen typically appears to indicate the group that has passed or been subjected to screening.

In practical use, seuloitujen is most commonly found in formal or technical language, such as research reports, recruitment documentation, health care protocols, and public statistics. It is used to specify the participants, items, or data that constitute the screened group. For example, a sentence might refer to “seuloitujen osallistujien taustatiedot” to discuss background information about the screened participants. The term emphasizes the filtering stage rather than the outcome or final selection.

Seuloitujen is not a distinct concept on its own but a grammatical form of the broader concept of screening (seulonta). Related terms include seuloida (to screen), seulonta (screening), and valinta (selection). In everyday Finnish, more general words like valitut or seulottu may be used, but seuloitujen appears in contexts that require precise reference to the screened subset, especially in written and official material.
