  1. 16. A study of twins born preterm : Functional lateralization, cognition, and brain volumes in twin and single-born children at early school ages

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Författare :Rebecka Boberg; Sofia Wallström; [2015]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Earlier research has found that preterm birth with low gestational age (GA) and low birth weight (BW) is associated with an increased risk of long-term effects such as atypical lateralization, cognitive deficits and smaller brain volume. Similar consequences have been found in twins. This study compares twins born preterm (n=22, Mean GA=32. LÄS MER

  4. 18. A Biological And Psychological Profile of Eudaimonia as High Psychological Well-Being

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Sofia Andersson Szabo; [2014]
    Nyckelord :well-being; eudaimonia; psychological well-being; biology; neuroscience; psychology;

    Sammanfattning : Aristotle (4th century B.C.E/1925) described eudaimonia as “the good life”, and is today commonly understood as eudaimonic well-being (EWB) within research. Despite the long history, the definitions and operationalizations of EWB are diverse and no coherent description or explanation for the biology of EWB exist. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Brain MRI segmentation for the longitudinal follow-up of regional atrophy in Alzheimer’s Disease

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknik och hälsa (STH)

    Författare :Clemence Petit; [2014]
    Nyckelord :Segmentation; MRI; Brain; Alzheimer s Disease; Tissue classification; Graph-cuts optimization;

    Sammanfattning : Brain atrophy measurement is increasingly important in studies of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. From this perspective, a regional segmentation framework for magnetic resonance images has recently been developed by the team that I joined for my master thesis. It combines an atlas fusion and a tissue classification. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Begreppet med fäste i gråzonen : Korruptionsdefinitionen i Hufvudstadsbladets nyhetsrapportering

    Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Kriminologiska institutionen

    Sammanfattning : In this study, my intention has been to examine how the ambiguous concept of corruption is constructed by the press. Emphasizing the media’s representations of the socially constructed and context-specific concept, this work adopts a critical perspective on discourse, together with an approach of conceptual history.
