    Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses the lack of effective and efficient technology design in current e-participation research by investigating two approaches that yet have not been explored to any great extent in the literature: decision science and data visualization. It is concerned with the problem of how to combine techniques from these two fields to achieve decision support in the context of e-participation; from preference elicitation and modeling to data analysis, visualization and final recommendations, such that it can provide value to practitioners.

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; comfort; sound quality; evaluations; affective reactions; preference; interior aircraft sounds; propeller aircraft;

    Sammanfattning : The concept of product sound quality is becoming an integral component of product development and design. The research presented in this thesis test the notion that affective reactions (i.e. positive-negative feelings) are a major determinant of perceived sound quality. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Erectile dysfunction in clinical practice. - With special focus on the correlation to myocardial infarction, lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), treatment cost and optimization -

    Nyckelord :Erectile Dysfunction; Cardiovascular disease; ; LUTS; Cost; Treatment optimization; Preference; Clinical practice;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis was to study and evaluate some aspects of Erectile Dysfunction (ED) in clinical practice, with special focus on the correlation to myocardial infarction, LUTS (lower urinary tract symptoms), ED treatment costs and optimization. A group of 100 patients under the age of 70 years who had suffered their first MI and an age matched control group without MI answered a questionnaire regarding ED and concomitant diseases. LÄS MER
