   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; neurophysiology; computerized tests; strategy; personality; neuropsychology; Neurology; neuropsykologi; Neurologi; neurofysiologi;

   Sammanfattning : "Personality determines very largely the use a person makes of his intellectual gifts" (Eysenck, 1988). Computerization of neuropsychological tests has made possible a detailed analysis of both quantitative and qualitative aspects of a person´s test performance. LÄS MER

3. 12. Dissecting the genetics of athletic performance and conformation traits in horses

   Författare :Maria Rosengren; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aims of this thesis were to investigate the genetics of athletic performance and the level of inbreeding in Coldblooded trotters, as well as the genetics of conformation traits in Icelandic horses. In paper I, genomic-based inbreeding coefficients in Coldblooded trotters were estimated and compared with pedigree-based coefficients. LÄS MER

4. 13. Mind your Language, All Right? Performance-dependent neural patterns of language

   Författare :Helene van Ettinger-Veenstra; Maria Engström; Peter Lundberg; Thomas Karlsson; Anita McAllister; Karsten Specht; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Language ability; performance; fMRI; functional magnetic resonance imaging; Broca; Wernicke; temporal lobe; inferior frontal gyrus; reading; fluency; lateralization; lateralisation; right hemisphere; performance-dependent; neural activation;

   Sammanfattning : The main aim of this dissertation was to investigate the difference in neural language patternsrelated to language ability in healthy adults. The focus lies on unraveling the contributions of theright‐hemispheric homologues to Broca’s area in the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and Wernicke’s areain the posterior temporal and inferior parietal lobes.

5. 14. Raumausdrücke im Deutschen : Semantische Form und konzeptuelle Struktur. Ein Vergleich mit dem Schwedischen

   Författare :Mikael Nystrand; Tyska; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; sematic form; conceptual structure; spatial expressions; local prepositions; motion verbs; positional verbs; contact verbs; space; applicative verbs; static relations; directionality;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to describe the conceptual structure of space and its relationship to semantics. It is a further aim to explain differences between German and Swedish verbal expressions of space, in which one language requires a directional and the other a static prepositional phrase. LÄS MER

7. 15. Stepping, placing and headturning biases in newborn infants : A neurodevelopmental perspective

   Författare :Erik Domellöf; Louise Rönnqvist; Marian Jongmans; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

   Sammanfattning : In the present thesis the stepping, placing and head turning responses in healthy humanfullterm newborns are investigated. The main focus is put on a study of these newbornresponses in relation to functional asymmetries, while at the same time exploring anddiscussing different factors that possibly can affect the outcome of such studies.
