The CSF is often regarded as merely a mechanical support for the brain, as well as an unspecific sink for waste products from the CNS. New methodology in receptor autoradiography, immunohistochemistry and molecular biology has revealed the presence of many different neuroendocrine substances or their corresponding receptors in the main CSF-forming structure, the choroid plexus. Both older research
The heightened interest in L2 vocabulary over the last two or three decades has brought with it a number of suggestions of how vocabulary knowledge should be modeled. From a testing and assessment perspective, this paper takes a closer look at some of these suggestions and attempts to tease out how terms like model, dimension and construct are used to describe different aspects of vocabulary knowl
In this paper we discuss the dynamic nature of mobile usage, and how this impacts on design and evaluation, particularly in an industrial setting. We argue that current industry oriented design tools need to be extended to cater more effectively to the highly dynamic and context-dependent nature of mobile usage -- we suggest more focus should be put on doing instead of on being. In order to achiev
The interdisciplinary symposium ”Microstructures of Learning: Novel methods and approaches for assessing structural and functional changes underlying knowledge acquisition in the brain” took place on May 23, 2014 in Lund, Sweden. The cross-disciplinary meeting brought together researchers from linguistics, psychology, physics, chemistry, and neuroscience in order to discuss how knowledge, in part
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den psykiatriska vården har genomgått radikala förändringar under de två senaste decennierna. Antalet platser inom den slutna vården har mer än halverats. Målsättningen från politikerna både på det nationella och internationella planet har varit att stänga mentalsjukhusen och erbjuda öppnare och humanare vårdformer samt öka utbudet av boendeformer för personer som drabbThis study investigated psychosocial environment, needs, quality of life and social network for persons with severe mental illness in supported housing in the community. Eighty-three persons with severe mental illness living in three different types of housing setting accepted to participate in the interviews, which took place between December 1997 and April 2000. These settings were: inpatient se
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged in the last decade as an important method for characterizing various aspects of cardiac anatomy, patho-anatomy, pathophysiology, and function. Measurements of flow parameters, left ventricular function, and grade of valvular regurgitation have been validated and proved to serve as excellent gold standards compared to simpler, established techniques, suc
The B8-type regions of the Mn-Sn and Cu-In systems have been investigated by means of electron and X-ray diffraction. The importance of the combination of these techniques in the study of B8-type phases is pointed out. In addition to the B8-type phases an alloy with a quasicrystal approximant structure has been studied. In the Mn-Sn system at least three B8-type phases exist. An X-ray powder patt
Abstract in UndeterminedEnterprise Systems (ES) are often the largest and most important Information Systems (IS) an organization employs. Most ES are rented or bought as COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) software. The use of COTS leads to a distinction between the development of the ES software—done by ES software providers, like SAP and Microsoft—and the implementation of ES software in a specific
Dennett diskuterar de grundläggande frågorna rörande medvetandet. Han presenterar sin syn på vad trosföreställningar är och deras roll vid förklarandet av mänskligt handlande. Vidare försöker han förklara vilka medvetandets objekt är, och medvetandets natur. En grundtes är att frågan om ett komplext system, t.ex. en dator, kan ha ett medveteande eller känna smärta, är beroende av vilken "hållning
