  1. 16. Cerebellar function during development. Eyeblink conditioning, prism adaptation and interval production in children and adults

    Författare :Karolina Löwgren; foniatri och audiologi Logopedi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cerebellum; Eyeblink conditioning; Prism adaptation; Finger tapping; Development; Children; Adults; Cerebellar function; Neurodevelopmental disorders; Cognitive disorders;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is on cerebellar-dependent sensorimotor tasks during development. The performance in classical delay eyeblink conditioning, prism adaptation, and isochronous serial interval production (finger tapping) was explored in typically developing school-aged children, young adolescents, and adults.

  3. 17. Attention and the Early Development of Cognitive Control : Infants’ and Toddlers’ Performance on the A-not-B task

    Författare :Linda Forssman; Gunilla Bohlin; Lillianne Eninger; Heimann Mikael; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; cognitive control; attention; eye tracking; children; A-not-B; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : In the first years of life there is a dramatic development of cognitive abilities supporting cognitive control of behavior. This development allows the child to make future-oriented predictions and to increasingly act in a goal-directed manner. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Cognitive training in young and old adults : Transfer, long-term effects, and predictors of gain

    Författare :Petra Sandberg; Anna Stigsdotter Neeyl; Michael Rönnlund; Boo Johansson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Cognitive training; aging; old adults; executive function; life-span; individual differences; episodic memory; inhibition; shifting; updating; cognitive control; strategy training; mnemonics; predictors; Psychology; psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Aging, also in the absence of pathological conditions, is associated with cognitivedecline, especially in so called fluid abilities, such as episodic memory andexecutive functions. Due to an ongoing demographic shift, a larger part of thepopulation will reach higher ages, and more people will be affected by age-relatedcognitive decline. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Executive Control Processes: Dimensions, Development and ADHD

    Författare :Karin Cecilia Brocki; Gunilla Bohlin; Edmund Sonuga-Barke; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Psychology; Executive function; development; ADHD; inhibitory control; working memory; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Deficits in higher order cognitive processes such as inhibitory control and working memory (WM), grouped under the term of executive function (EF), have been shown to constitute one important component of the complex neuropsychology of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The aim of the present thesis was to examine EF in relation to ADHD, with primary focus on structure (i. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : The ability to mentally represent the exact numerosity of up to four perceived objects, as well as approximately estimating differences in numerical magnitude, appears to constitute a core-cognitive number sense. Symbolic representations of number (e.g. LÄS MER
