6. Driving Violations : Investigating Forms of Irrational Rationality
Sammanfattning : Several aspects contribute to road crashes and one important part is the ‘human factor’. This information is interesting but insufficient unless we also try to understand what is meant by the term. LÄS MER
7. Music and risk in an existential and gendered world
Sammanfattning : Adolescents in Western society often expose themselves to high levels of sound at gyms, rock concerts, discotheques etc. These behaviours are as threatening to young people’s health as more traditional risk behaviours. LÄS MER
8. Behavioural, physiological and morphological correlates of life-history in killifishes − a macroevolutionary approach
Sammanfattning : Life-histories commonly evolve along a continuum from short-lived and fecund, to long-lived and less fecund. Because life-history traits are mostly components of reproduction and survival, understanding the causes and consequences of life-history variation is at the core of evolutionary biology. LÄS MER
9. Interaction between dispersal and behavioural syndromes - empirical approach in a fragmented population of passerine birds
Sammanfattning : Dispersal is a key life history trait for ecological and evolutionary processes in wild populations. The latest research has particularly focused on the correlation between behavioural traits and dispersal, in order to emphasize the existence of behavioural syndromes of dispersal, and on the estimation of the genetic basis of the dispersal behaviour.

10. Variation in age and size at maturation in two benthic crustaceans in the Gulf of Bothnia
Sammanfattning : The thesis deals with variation in age and size at maturation in Saduria entomon and Pontoporeia affinis along a depth gradient in the Gulf of Bothnia, Sweden. I have analysed at what sizes and ages animals should mature in relation to growth and mortality conditions. LÄS MER
