Abstract:

Bakgrundsljud och hur det influerar människors uppmärksamhet är undersökt i ett flertal olika former. Vanligtvis genom att använda musik och tystnad som variabler för att jämföra effekten på en primär kognitiv uppgift. Eftersom all musik skapas med intentionen att lyssnas på, dvs. att dra uppmärksamheten till sig, söker denna studie att undersöka huruvida bakgrundsljud ligger till grund för olika reaktionstid beroende på om ljudet är artificiellt eller naturligt (ljud från naturen som en strömmande bäck jämfört med rosa brus). Genom att använda ett visuellt oddball-paradigm på ett reaktionstid

Abstract:

Eye trackers have enabled users to interact with computers for a long time. Yet, there are still many challenges left to be solved to make the interaction easy for users with development disabilities. Especially, when it comes to setup eye tracking where calibration of the eye tracker is important to get accurate estimation of where users are looking. This paper presents a study in which three modified versions of a calibration interface for eye trackers has been designed and evaluated by nine participants with development disabilities. These calibration interfaces used regions that were aware

Abstract:

This Master's dissertation explored whether a rapid orienting of attention toward or away from social stress information during a restful state, relates to the magnitude of glucocorticoids (GC) released in response to a stressor, the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST).

Subjects rested for 45 minutes during which time they completed a modified version of Posner's attention paradigm, comprising social stress words. Immediately following, participants were exposed to the stressor. Resul

In three experiments a total of 80 participants completed the SART and versions of the DR SART in which response probabilities varied from 50-50, through 70-30 to 90-10. The probability of No-Go withhold stimuli was .11 in all experiments.

Corporates must involve leadership, employees, suppliers, and consumers to build a more efficient and resilient system where waste and by-products generation is limited. The unavoidable waste could be valorized to new raw materials to reduce the environmental impact of their disposal. This thesis focuse

Toddler-aged children are expected to shift from being solely dependent on parents to regulate their emotion (e.g., Fox & Calkins, 2003) to being able to independently regulate their emotions (Calkins & Johnson, 1998). Mothers' responses to children's negative emotions are expected to influence this development. Children's temperamental negative reactivity was found to moderate the effect of mothers' socialization attempts on children's regulatory behaviors, as suggested by previous theoretical and empirical work (e.g., Putnam, Sanson, & Rothbart, 2002; Rothbart & Bates, 1998).

Abstract:

It has been previously established that when engaged in a difficult attention intensive task, which involves repeating information while blocking out other information (the dichotic listening task), participants are often able to report hearing their own names in an unattended audio channel (Moray, 1959). This phenomenon, called the cocktail party effect is a result of words that are important to oneself having a lower threshold, resulting in less attention being necessary to process them (Treisman, 1960).

Abstract:

Self-esteem involves a variety of cognitive processes that help people perceive, interpret, and process social information. A central component of people's self-esteem is their sense of belonging and feelings of acceptance. It follows that people react strongly to social rejection and that being attuned to signs of real or potential social rejection can serve a self-protection function. However, being overly attuned and sensitive to social rejection can have a paradoxical effect, whereby aberrant attentional processes can contribute to the perpetuation of the vicious cycle of low self-esteem.

A longstanding folk belief suggests that 'busy' people possess the ability to get more done than others. Busyness, defined as the demands of everyday life, has been shown to generate cognitive load, which has been called 'cognitive busyness.' Although most cognitive theory would deny the possibility that cognitive load may enhance performance, some recent research may support the possibility. Cowan's 1988 information-processing model was used to study how measures of everyday busyness correlated with performance on cognitive tasks.

Esta tesis doctoral tiene como finalidad examinar el alcance-ético-político de la atención diferencial respecto a la consolidación de Estado democrático y pluralista en Colombia para el caso del pueblo embera chamí, asentado en el resguardo Wuasiruma, municipio de Vijes, en el departamento del Valle del Cauca. Para alcanzar esta finalidad, se proponen dos ejes de indagación: 1) una investigación etnográfica para evidenciar el modo en que el pueblo indígena y los funcionarios del Instituto Colombiano de Bienestar Familiar (ICBF) interactúan desde las directrices de la atención diferencial; y 2)

Abstract:

Antecedentes y objetivos: el tempo cognitivo lento (TCL) se ha asociado, desde su definición, al trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad subtipo inatento (TDAH-I). Se han hallado síntomas TCL en el trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad subtipo combinado (TDAH-C), en otros trastornos psiquiátricos y en grupos clínicos sin trastorno mental. Existen correlaciones entre los síntomas de TCL y síntomas de ansiedad, depresión, dificultades de regulación emocional de emociones negativas, mayor sensibilidad al castigo, evitación social, bajo rendimiento académico y con un

Abstract:

El análisis de la atención que prestan los espectadores durante el consumo de contenidos de televisión es un aspecto fundamental para comprender los procesos de recepción de los medios. En esta tesis se realiza una investigación en torno a este tema que incluye una revisión de los diferentes modelos teóricos y metodologías empleados para su estudio, así como una propuesta teórica sobre los posibles efectos de las respuestas automáticas de atención en la motivación del espectador. En relación con ello, también se presenta una investigación experimental sobre los efectos de la imagen en alta def

Abstract:

We have combined a theoretical and experimental approach to study the biophysical substrates for the coding of orientation and contrast in the activity of V1 neurons. We first explore theoretically how the emerging activity in V1 depends on the input properties, single neuron input-output transfer-function properties and the connectivity pattern within V1. We explain the conditions on the different input sources in a hypercolumn model, that allow for both contrast-invariant orientation tuning width and sigmoid contrast response functions (CRF). We emphasize the role of the systems' components

Abstract:

With the recent evolution of mobile communication, there is a lack of understanding of increased radiofrequency (RF) exposure from these new technologies, especially among children. Little is known about the amount of RF exposure children experience day-to-day and its main sources. Furthermore, there is little understanding of RF dose during fetal life or RF dose to the brain during childhood. This thesis assessed environmental RF exposure and RF brain and body dose in children in several large, population-based cohort studies through personal exposure measurement studies and integrated ex
