1. On the Value of Pictures in Verbal Cognition
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to analyze the value of pictures in a number of cognitive tasks that are predominantly verbal in nature. Three studies, with three experiments each, are included in the thesis. The first study found automatic interference effects from pictures (facial expressions) on the affective evaluation of words.

2. Episodic memory functioning in very old age : individual differences and utilization of cognitive support
Sammanfattning : The general aim of the present doctoral thesis was to examine potential age-related differences in episodic memory performance and utilization of cognitive support in very old age. An additional objective was to investigate the influence of individual difference variables within demographic (e.g. education, gender), psychometric (e. LÄS MER
3. Spectra of elliptic operators and applications
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we consider several problems related to elliptic equations. Namely, we investigate Helmholtz and Maxwell's equations in Paper I and Sturm-Liouville spectral problem in Papers II,III. In Paper I we study time-harmonic electromagnetic and acoustic waveguide, modeled by an in�nite cylinder with a non-smooth cross section. LÄS MER
4. Studenters fritids- och motionsvanor i Umeå och Madison : Ett bidrag till förståelsen av Pierre Bourdieus vetenskapliga metodologi
Sammanfattning : This study analyses differences between student groups at Umeå University, Sweden, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA. It analyses student study situations, students’ experience of the university environment, students’ exercise and sports activities, and connections between study and leisure-time activities. LÄS MER
5. Numerical approximations of time domain boundary integral equation for wave propagation
Sammanfattning : Boundary integral equation techniques are useful in thenumerical simulation of scattering problems for wave equations.Their advantage over methods based on partial di.erentialequations comes from the lack of phase errors in the wavepropagation and from the fact that only the boundary of thescattering object needs to be discretized.
