  1. 11. Exploring persistent homology as a method for capturing functional connectivity differences in Parkinson’s Disease.

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Författare :Naomi Hulst; [2022]
    Nyckelord :persistent homology; topological data analysis; computational topology; parkinson s disease; parkinson; functional connectivity; stable rank; ihållande homologi; topologisk data analys; beräknings topologi; Parkinsons sjukdom; parkinson; funktionell konnektivitet; stable ranks;

    Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is the fastest growing neurodegenerative disease, currently affecting two to three percent of the population over 65. Studying functional connectivity (FC) in PD patients may provide new insights into how the disease alters brain organization in different subjects. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Structural and Functional Brain Changes due to Pregnancy and Early Postpartum Period: A Systematic Review

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Sanne Lövgren; [2022]
    Nyckelord :pregnancy; brain; structural; functional;

    Sammanfattning : A big part of the female population experience pregnancy and giving birth. Evidence from animal studies indicates numerous adaptations in the brain throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period. The effects on the human brain are not as well studied, which is problematic due to the complexity of comparing species. LÄS MER

  3. 13. The Functional Role of the Prefrontal Cortex in Antisocial Personality Disorder

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Carina Johansson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :antisocial personality disorder; prefrontal cortex; functional magnetic resonance imaging;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) are deceptive, apathetic, and impulsive. Their social behavior is often inappropriate, and they fail to follow social norms, leading to frequent criminal behavior. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Cognitive Dissonance in the Brain: A Systematic Review

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Elin Boklund; [2022]
    Nyckelord :cognitive dissonance; functional magnetic resonance imaging; anterior cingulate cortex; dorsal anterior cingulate cortex;

    Sammanfattning : Cognitive dissonance is the uncomfortable psychological feeling that arises when something is perceived as contradictory. In 1957, Leon Festinger first developed the theory of cognitive dissonance, which has since continued to be of interest for, among other things, decision-making, moral reasoning, motivation, politics, and science.

  5. 15. In your dreams! : The neural correlates of lucid dreaming

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Markus Gustafsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :EEG; fMRI; lucid dreaming; self-awareness; volition;

    Sammanfattning : While dreaming, one lacks the understanding that what is experienced is self-generated hallucinatory contents of consciousness. However, during dreaming there is a rare state called lucid dreaming. The minimal requirement for a dream to be considered lucid is that one is self-aware that one is currently sleeping. LÄS MER
