11. Essays on financial time series models : Stochastic volatility and long memory
Sammanfattning : This work consists of five articles about the statistical aspects of financial time series models. The first three papers investigate and develop the inverse normal Gaussian stochastic volatility (NIGSV) model, initially suggested by Barndorff- Nielsen (1997). LÄS MER
12. If only I could sleep, maybe I could remember
Sammanfattning : Memory lies the ground for human cognitive skills, enabling complex social interaction, abstract thinking, and execution of precise motor skills. Development of these memory functions can be modified by several factors, including previous knowledge, reward, and sleep. LÄS MER
13. The influence of social relationships and leisure activity on adult cognitive functioning and risk of dementia : Longitudinal population-based studies

Thus, further knowledge of how to maintain levels of cognitive functioning in old age and how to identify factors that postpone the onset of dementia are of acute interest. Lifestyle patterns and social life are important aspects to consider in this regard. LÄS MER

15. An Associative Memory Trace in the Cerebellar Cortex
Sammanfattning : Classical conditioning of motor responses, e.g., the eyeblink response, depends on the cerebellum. In the theoretical works of David Marr (1969) and James Albus (1971), it was proposed that Purkinje cells in the cerebellar cortex learn to associate the neutral conditioned stimulus with the response.
