  3. 2. Phenotypic and social effects on behavioural trade-offs in Eurasian perch

    Författare :Gustav Hellström; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Trading between conflicting demands is a fundamental part in how animals interact with its environment and social surrounding. Knowledge of what factors that are affecting behavioural decisions is central in our understanding of animal adaptation and ecology. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Formbara människor : Högre utbildning och arbete som utsnitt ur läkares och civilingenjörers levnadsbanor

    Författare :Rose-Marie Axelsson; Madeleine Abrandt Dahlgren; Lars Ove Dahlgren; Anette Kolmos; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Higher education; work; physician; engineer; knowledge; identification; life-trajectories; subjectivity; flexibility; ambivalence; reflexive interpretation; Högre utbildning; arbete; läkare; civilingenjör; kunskap; identifikation; levnadsbanor; subjektivitet; flexibilitet; ambivalens; reflexiv tolkning; Education; Pedagogik;

    Sammanfattning : Fokus i denna avhandling utgör läkares och civilingenjörers kunskaps- och identifikationsprocesser under utbildning och arbete – vilka studeras som utsnitt ur levnadsbanor. Syftet är att beskriva och tolka relationen mellan högre utbildning och arbete, dels utifrån föreställningar i forskning och policy, dels utifrån människors subjektivitet, vardagserfarenheter och liv.

  5. 4. Towards sustainable energy consumption : Electricity demand flexibility and household fuel choice

    Författare :Aemiro Melkamu Daniel; Lars Persson; Runar Brännlund; Rauli Svento; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Choice experiment; demand flexibility; electricity contract; fuel choice; fuel stacking; household heterogeneity; load control; pro-environmental framing; willingness-to-accept;

    Sammanfattning : Paper [I] investigates household heterogeneity in valuing electricity contract attributes that include various load controls and information sharing to induce demand flexibility. Using a stated preference choice experiment conducted with Swedish households, this paper shows that, although a large proportion of households ask for substantial compensation, some households are willing to share their electricity consumption information and require relatively lower compensation to allow load controls.

  7. 5. Memory for Problem Solving: Comparative Studies in Attention, Working and Long-term Memory

    Författare :Katarzyna Bobrowicz; LUCS grupp för kognitiv zoologi; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; memory; flexibility; comparative cognition; transfer; problem solving; attention;

    Sammanfattning : Living in a complex and dynamically changing environment requires accurate and timely behavioural responses that allow for adapting to such changes. Well-developed perceptual systems provide a continuous flow of abundant and up-to-date information on the changes in the environment, and, thereby, allow for tailoring behavioural responses accordingly.
