Full textComputer dialogs communicate important security messages, but their excessive use has produced habituation: a strong tendency by computer users to ignore security dialogs. Unlike physical warnings, whose design and use is regulated by law and based on years of research, computer security dialogs are often designed in an arbitrary manner. We need scientific solutions to produce dialogs that users will heed and understand.
Currently, we lack an understanding of the factors that drive users’ attention to security dialogs, and how to counteract habituation. Studying computer security behavior is difficult because a) users are more likely to expose themselves to risk in a lab experiment than in daily life, b) the size of observed effects is usually very small, which makes it necessary to collect many observations, and c) it is complex to balance research interests and the ethical duty not to harm.
My thesis makes two contributions: a novel methodology to study behavioral responses to security dialogs in a realistic, ethical way with high levels of ecological validity, and a novel technique to increase and retain attention to security dialogs, even in the presence of habituation.

Full textThe aim of the present project is to provide a better understanding of how safety messages can control drivers' vulnerable road user detection abilities. Safety messages provide both vulnerability information and elicit emotion with persons that are exposed to it. This thesis deals with how vulnerability information and emotions respectively affect vulnerable road user detection performances. A special focus was placed on cyclists because of the lack of studies that address cyclist detetcion issues. The project also focused on physiology, especially emotion identification through physiological patterns

Full textFöljsamhet till läkemedelsbehandling vid astma och ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) är viktigt eftersom optimal behandling kan förebygga allvarliga och livslånga konsekvenser. Flera faktorer som påverkar följsamhetsbeteendet har tidigare identifierats exempelvis ekonomiska faktorer, men vikten av personlighetsdrag, uppfattning om läkemedel och sjukdomsuppfattning har tidigare inte undersökts tillräckligt. Det övergripande syftet för avhandlingen var att studera följsamhet till läkemedel hos personer med astma och ADHD och i synnerhet påverkande faktorer. Avhandlingen utgörs av fem delstudier. Personlighet kan beskrivas som grundläggande egenskaper som kännetecknar likheter och skillnader mellan individer, den så kallade egenskapsteorin. Personlighet kan beskrivas utifrån fem grundläggande personlighetsdrag: känslomässig instabilitet, utåtriktning, öppenhet, vänlighet och målmedvetenhet, den så kallade fem-faktor modellen. När det gäller uppfattning om läkemedel så vägs uppfattningen om nödvändigheten av läkemedelsbehandlingen för att kontrollera sjukdomen mot oron för läkemedlens negativa effekter-biverkningar. Följsamhetsbeteendet beror på vilken uppfattning som dominerar. Uppfattning om sjukdom påverkas bland annat av personens uppfattning om hur mycket sjukdomen påverkar personens liv och sjukdomens varaktighet. Resultaten av denna avhandling visar att följsamheten var högre hos tonåringar med ADHD än hos vuxna med astma. Följsamheten till astma- och ADHD-medicinering var signifikant associerad med uppfattning att läkemedel var nödvändigt såväl som personlighetsdragen, särskilt antagonism. Följsamheten var inte associerad med ålder eller kön. Med anledning av att kön är relaterad till andra faktorer bör det beaktas i utredning av följsamhet till läkemedel. Personlighetsdraget känslomässig instabilitet, var relaterat till många uppfattningar om läkemedlen och sjukdomsuppfattningar. Avhandlingen visar på sambandet mellan vissa personrelaterade faktorer och följsamhet till läkemedel, hos personer med astma och ADHD. Den svenska översättningen av frågeformulären: Uppfattning om läkemedel (BMQ-Specific) och Uppfattning om ADHD (B-IPQ) visade sig ha god kvalitet för användning i kliniska utvärderingar och forskning som involverar ungdomar med ADHD.

Full textMy dissertation is comprised of three chapters. In the first chapter, I analyze the effect of top management changes on subsequent corporate innovation in venture capital-backed private firms using a hand-collected dataset. I find that top management changes are associated with significantly more and higher quality corporate innovation (as measured by their patenting activity). I show that top management changes are likely to be venture-driven and that the effect of top management changes on corporate innovation is stronger for firms where venture capitalists have greater power. An instrumental variable analysis using an exogenous shock to the supply of outside managers available for hire implies a causal effect of top management changes on corporate innovation. I establish that one mechanism through which top management changes enhance corporate innovation is through new management teams hiring more inventors for a given investment size. I also show that both top management changes and corporate innovation have a positive impact on firms' successful exits. In the second chapter, co-authored with Thomas Chemmanur and Karthik Krishnan, we hypothesize that VC-backing garners greater “investor attention” (Merton (1987)) for IPOs, allowing IPO underwriters to perform two information-related roles more efficiently during the book-building and road-show process: information dissemination, where the lead underwriter disseminates noisy information about various aspects of the IPO firm to institutional investors; and information extraction, where the lead underwriter extracts information useful in pricing the IPO firm equity from institutional investors. Using pre-IPO media coverage as a proxy, we show empirically that VC-backed firm IPOs indeed obtain greater investor attention, causally yielding them more favorable IPO characteristics such as higher IPO and secondary market valuations. In the third chapter, co-authored with Thomas Chemmanur, Lei Kong, and Karthik Krishnan, using panel data on top management characteristics and a management quality factor constructed using common factor analysis on individual management quality proxies, we analyze the relation between the human capital or “quality” of firm management and its innovation inputs and outputs. We control for the endogenous matching between firm and management quality using a plausibly exogenous shock to the supply of new managers as an instrument, thereby finding a causal relationship between management quality and innovation activities. We show that higher management quality firms achieve greater innovation output by hiring more and higher quality inventors
