   Författare :Inger Sandblad; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The theme of this thesis is the importance of psychosocial factors in the development of psychosomatic illness and cancer. Critics have maintained that a strictly natural scientific view of the individual and his suffering is too restricted for an understanding of often reported psychosocial elements in the pathological picture.

3. 22. Human interaction as a model for spoken dialogue system behaviour

   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Acoustics; Akustik; Human communication; Kommunikation mellan människor;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is a step towards the long-term and high-reaching objec-tive of building dialogue systems whose behaviour is similar to a human dialogue partner. The aim is not to build a machine with the same conversational skills as a human being, but rather to build a machine that is human enough to encourage users to interact with it accordingly. LÄS MER

4. 23. Vetenskap på gränsen

   Författare :Tora Holmberg; Kaj Håkanson; Mark Elam; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Sociology; discourse analysis; sociology of science; cultural studies; Donna Haraway; boundary politics; figure; behavioural genetics; genomics; behaviour; human animal; twin; Sociologi; Sociology; Sociologi; Sociology; sociologi;

   Sammanfattning : With behavioural genetic twin- and animal-studies as a point of departure, this thesis investigates how the polyphonic talk about genes creates certain conditions for how “human behaviour” can be constructed, how the politics of boundary fixing contributes to and undermines respectively, credible narratives about human behaviour and, in the extension, about what constitutes human-ness. Furthermore, sociology is used as a sounding board in order to investigate what behavioural genetic knowledge can promote in terms of sociological insights and vice versa. LÄS MER

5. 24. Designing and Evaluating Human-Robot Communication : Informing Design through Analysis of User Interaction

   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human-Robot Interaction; Human-Robot Communication; Natural language user interfaces; Interaction Design; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the design and evaluation of human-robot communication for service robots that use natural language to interact with people.  The research is centred around three themes: design of human-robot communication; evaluation of miscommunication in human-robot communication; and the analysis of spatial influence as empiric phenomenon and design element.

   Sammanfattning : Most epidemiologic studies of sexually transmitted diseases (STD) are based on patients seeking help or advice at various health care settings. Because many STD:s are subclinical, epidemiologic surveys can be strengthened by a population-based approach. LÄS MER
