1. Functional modelling of the human timing mechanism
Sammanfattning : Behaviour occurs in time, and precise timing in the range of seconds and fractions of seconds is for most living organisms necessary for successful interaction with the environment. Our ability to time discrete actions and to predict events on the basis of prior events indicates the existence of an internal timing mechanism. LÄS MER
2. Exploring models of time processing : effects of training and modality, and the relationship with cognition in rhythmic motor tasks
Sammanfattning : Timing can be defined as the ability to perceive temporal sequences and regulate timed behaviors. As in other animals, our ability to make accurate time estimations is crucial in order to accomplish several activities. Organisms can process time over a wide range of durations ranging from microseconds to days. LÄS MER
3. Forecasting myocardial infarction and subsequent behavioural outcomes
Sammanfattning : This thesis is compiled from four studies dealing with the prediction of myocardial infarction (MI) and some associated risk behaviours post MI.Study 1 extends the field of possible psychosocial stress-triggering of MI to Sweden, and to the phenomenon of temporal crests and troughs in national MI rates.
