    Nyckelord :Literary gerontology; ageing; memory; chronology; main character; life review; Sigrid Combüchen; narration; trilogy; life course; Vollendungsroman; literature on ageing; self accounts; Litteraturgerontologi; åldrande; minne; kronologi; huvudperson; life review; Sigrid Combüchen; gestaltning; trilogi; livslopp; Vollendungsroman; åldrandelitteratur; självframställning; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Detta är en studie av åldrande och minne i Sigrid Combüchens trilogi Värme, Korta och långa kapitel samt En simtur i sundet. Det övergripande syftet med avhandlingen är att visa hur skönlitteratur kan bidra till forskningen om åldrande, och hur litteraturanalys som metod kan utveckla det forskningsfält som i huvudsak har ägnat sig åt frågeställningar om åldrande utifrån ett skönlitterärt material, det vill säga litteraturgerontologi.

  3. 2. A population-based study on neuropsychological and morphological signs of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

    Författare :Otto Lilja-Lund; Lars Nyberg; Martin Maripuu; Katarina Laurell; Magnus Tisell; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus; cognition; dual-task; ageing; temporal horns; morphology; memory; executive function; Neurology; neurologi;

    Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is typically manifested in people over 65 years. The condition of gait disturbances, incontinence, and cognitive dysfunction can be reversed in up to 80% of the cases by ventricular shunting. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Helping Hands : Motion and integration in action memory

    Författare :Jan von Essen; Lars-Göran Nilsson; Monik Knopf; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; episodic memory; action memory; cued recall; motor activation; association; sentence integration; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Verbal information has predominantly been the to-be-remembered materials in human memory research for more than a century. In recent years some interesting deviations from the established rules of verbal memory have been observed in subjects who have been asked to motorically self-perform (enact) action sentences at the encoding phase of the memory task, instead of only hearing or reading them as in a traditional verbal task (VT).

  5. 4. Assessment of cognition in ageing. Investigating internal validity, occurrence and reversion of Mild Cognitive Impairment. Data from the general population study “Good Aging in Skåne”

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ageing; Older adults; Cognition; validity; test administrator effects; cohort effects; Mild cognitive impairment;

    Sammanfattning : Given a growing population of older adults and the common occurrence of natural as well as pathological cognitive decline, i.e. dementia, there is a need to better understand how to accurately measure and classify level of cognitive functioning. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Cerebral Blood Flow and Cognition. Clinical studies on Dementia and Cognitive Decline

    Författare :Arkadiusz Siennicki-Lantz; Geriatrik; []
