1. 1. Psychophysiological reactions to experimental stress : relations to pain sensitivity, position sense and stress perception

   Författare :Marina Heiden; Eugene Lyskov; Tohr Nilsson; Ulf Lundberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :public health; autonomic activity; cognitive-behavioral training; muscle oxygenation; physical activity; position sense; pressure-pain thresholds; sick leave; stress; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin;

   Sammanfattning : Stress and monotonous work contribute substantially to the development of chronic musculoskeletal disorders. Yet, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the process, particularly the involvement of autonomic regulation, remain unclear. LÄS MER

3. 2. Repetitive and monotonous work among women : Psychophysiological and subjective stress reactions, muscle activity and neck and shoulder pain

   Författare :Dag Rissén; Bo Melin; Ulf Lundberg; Anders Kjellberg; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Repetitive and monotonous work; women; psychophysiological stress reactions; subjective stress reactions; muscle activity; trapezius muscle; neck and shoulder pain; job rotation; Psychology; Psykologi;

   Sammanfattning : Repetitive and monotonous work is frequently associated with neck and shoulder pain and negative psychosocial factors inducing stress reactions. The present thesis concerns the relations between psychophysiological and subjective stress reactions, muscle activity measured by surface electromyography (SEMG) in the trapezius muscle, and neck and shoulder pain in women performing repetitive and monotonous work.

4. 3. Telework in academia – Opportunities and challenges for well-being at work

   Författare :Linda Widar; Birgitta Wiitavaara; Marina Heiden; Calle Rosengrad; Högskolan i Gävle; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; telework; academia; psychophysiological activity; physical behaviors; stress; well-being; leadership; phenomenography; distansarbete; akademianställda; psykofysiologisk reaktivitet; fysiska beteenden; stress; välbefinnande; ledarskap; fenomenografi;

   Sammanfattning : Background:Telework reshapes the conventional work practice by providing the flexibility to perform work at new places and times. Telework can increase individual autonomy to control and organize work, but can also place higher demands on the ability to separate work-nonwork in time and space, physically and mentally. LÄS MER

5. 4. I feel terrible! Can you measure that? : Exploring psychophysiological stress responses and their interactions with performance, subjective reports and health status

   Författare :Anna Sjörs; Torbjörn Falkmer; Björn Gerdle; Britt Larsson; Ulf Lundberg; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :psychophysiology; motion sickness; chronic pain; stressor; performance; autonomic responses; HPA axis; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : Despite recent research advances, there are still several common medical conditions whose underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. In conditions with few or diffuse physical findings, it can be difficult to diagnose and determine the state of the condition and its effects on working ability or performance, and the health care practitioners have to rely on the patient’s self-reports.

7. 5. Computational modeling of the neural mechanisms underlying working memory

   Författare :Julian Macoveanu; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

   Sammanfattning : The performance on various cognitive tasks, from language to selective attention and guiding future actions depends on working memory (WM), the capacity to hold and manipulate limited items of information. However, neural basis of WM and the capacity limitation are still unclear. LÄS MER
