  1. 11. Children As Eyewitnesses : Memory recall and face recognition

    Författare :Gunilla Fredin; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; sequential lineup; confidence; question format; Child eyewitness; event memory; elimination lineup;

    Sammanfattning : Through centuries, witnesses to crimes have played an important role for the police to get a conviction of the culprit. This dissertation examined how accurate children are as witnesses of events and when participating in lineups. In Study 1, participants were tested with free recall and focussed questions. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Memory Distortions Induced by Fluency : Behavioural and Electrophysiological Investigations

    Författare :Anne-Cécile Treese; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; memory distortions; recall-to-reject; celebrity; fluency; emotion; attractiveness; memory control;

    Sammanfattning : The investigation of memory distortions provides insights into how memory normally works. Adopting a cognitive neuroscience perspective, the present thesis aimed at investigating memory distortions and the neural correlates of processes contributing to successful control of memory interference in healthy participants.

  4. 13. Algorithms for synchronization and consistency in concurrent system services

    Författare :Anders Gidenstam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; threading; plausible clocks; memory management; event ordering; lock-free; optimistic causal order; nonblocking; group communication; synchronization; memory reclamation; time stamping system; logical clocks; atomic registers.;

    Sammanfattning : Synchronization, consistency and scalability are important issues in the design of concurrent computer system services. In this thesis we study the application of optimistic and scalable methods in concurrent system services. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Participating in a Story: Exploring Audience Cognition

    Författare :Pierre Gander; Kognitionsvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; memory; cognition; comprehension; Lingvistik; Psychology; Filosofi; Philosophy; computer games; interactive media; perspective; memory qualities; spatial cognition; fiction; narrative; cognitive science; linguistics; Psykologi; Applied and experimental psychology; Tillämpad och experimentell psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Stories that the audience can influence (such as computer games and other interactive multimedia), in contrast to 'traditional' stories (such as books and cinema), present a challenge to fields which take narrative (story) as their study object. What is the difference between these two kinds of stories? Earlier theories have focused on differences in media, structure, or the audience's physical actions. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Brain activity associated with episodic memory : similarities and differences between encoding and retrieval

    Författare :Jonas Persson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Episodic memory; encoding; retrieval; positron emission tomography PET ; enactment; overlap; retrieval mode; retrieval success; novelty;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding the mnemonic functions of the brain has been extensively facilitated by the development of functional neuroimaging techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The present thesis aims at investigating the neural mechanisms underlying memory for personally experienced events (episodic memory), using PET. LÄS MER
