Planning Primates - A search for episodic foresight

Popular Abstract in Swedish Förmågan att planera med en medveten mental simulering har ansetts vara unikt mänsklig sedan Aristoteles. När människor planerar för psykologiska eller fysiologiska driftstillstånd som de för närvarande inte upplever, tror man att de använder sig av så kallad episodisk framförhållning. Den episodiska framförhållningen är en del av det större episodiska kognitiva systemeThe ability to plan for future, not currently experienced, mental or physiological states has been regarded as unique to humans. When humans plan for such states it has been hypothesized that they make use of what has been known as episodic foresight. Episodic foresight is a part of the episodic cognitive system, which also includes episodic memory. The defining feature of this system is so-called

Vilja att minska svinn och stölder bakom videoövervakning i handeln

Främsta orsakerna till satsningar på videoövervakningslösningar i detaljhandeln är en vilja att minska oönskade förluster i form av svinn och olika typer av kriminalitet riktad mot butiker. Det visar en studie utförd av forskargruppen Lusax vid Lunds universitet. Studien visar också att den svårtolkade lagstiftningen är ett hinder för bredare användning av videoövervakning.

Sämre kognitiv funktion som barn--okad hjärt-kärlrisk som vuxen. Riskökning kan grundläggas redan i fosterlivet.

The neurocognitive development of children is shaped by growth patterns during fetal and early postnatal life, as well as conditions during childhood and adolescence. Adverse factors might harm this development, for example lack of nutrients or under-stimulation of cognitive function. In several contemporary observational studies based on follow-up of cohorts from childhood into adulthood, positiv

Association of central and peripheral pulse pressure with intermediate cardiovascular phenoytpes.

OBJECTIVE: We assessed the relationship between pulse pressure and intermediate cardiovascular phenotypes in a middle-aged cohort with high prevalence of hypertension. BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that central pulse pressure (cPP) is a better predictor of cardiovascular outcome than peripheral pulse pressure (pPP), particularly in the elderly. Yet, it is unclear if cPP provides additional pro

Operation and Control of Wastewater Treatment - A Scandinavian Perspective over 20 years

This paper aims to review the development of wastewater treatment operation and control over the last two decades. Due to the authors' background and experiences there is a special emphasis on the Scandinavian perspective. Since the developments in these countries have been in the forefront in the wastewater treatment area we believe that it may give a reasonable view of the progress also in other

A novel bio-electronic tongue using different cellobiose dehydrogenases to resolve mixtures of various sugars and interfering analytes.

A novel application of cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) as sensing element for a Bioelectronic Tongue (BioET) system has been tested. In this work CDHs from various fungi, which exhibit different substrate specificities, were used to discriminate between lactose and glucose in presence of the interfering matrix compound Ca(2+) in various mixtures. This work exploits the advantage of an electronic to

The early life origins of vascular ageing and cardiovascular risk: the EVA syndrome.

Early vascular ageing is common in patients with hypertension and increased burden of cardiovascular risk factors, often influenced by chronic inflammation. One aspect of this vascular ageing is arterial stiffening, as measured by increased pulse wave velocity or augmentation index and central pressure. Several studies have indicated that this process starts early in life and that arterial functio
