This thesis concerns the nature of cognition. It posits that cognitive processes primarily are means to maintain allostasis in organisms whose ecological niches require movement to approach food-resources and avoid predation. Hence triggering, or motivation, of behaviours are a consequence of prediction errors from the body resulting from biological variables moving away from homeostasis. Dependin
Background and Aims: Substance use disorder (SUD) is related to widespread adverse consequences, including higher suicidality. Shared genetic liability has been demonstrated between SUD and suicidality. Here, we measured the factors that contribute to increased risk of non-fatal suicide attempt among individuals with SUD by focusing upon aggregate genetic risks and both childhood and past-year env
The number of supply chain disruptions has increased over the last couple of years. The Covid-19 Pandemic, blockage of the Suez Canal and Russian invasion of Ukraine are some well-known examples of disruptions. Academia seems to have noticed the increasing disruptions and has explored proactive Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) as an approach to address this. Consulting firms also suggest compan
The first three US Presidents of the century have, to say the least, had differing views concerning the nature of climate change and how this issue is addressed most appropriately – as noted by the fact that the issue has gone back and forth between being a security issue and basically disappearing from the security agenda altogether. In order to shine a light on how this has happened, this study
Bakgrund: Personer med psykisk ohälsa har ofta en nedsatt förmåga att bearbeta sinnesintryck. Tidigare har kopplingen mellan det individuella sättet att hantera sinnesintryck och olika sociodemografiska faktorer undersökts hos psykiskt friska personer, men studier gällande detta saknas för personer med psykisk ohälsa. Syfte: Att undersöka sensoriska bearbetningsmönster och deras eventuella kopplBackground: People with mental illness often have a reduced ability to process sensory inputs. Previously, the link between the individual way of dealing with sensory inputs and sociodemographic factors has been investigated in mentally healthy people, but there’s a lack of similar studies for people with mental illness. Aim: To investigate sensory processing patterns and their possible connecti
Lubyanka- IIIrd Floor. Memoirs of the KGB-chairman Vladimir Semichastny This book (published in Czech language in 1998) gives the reader a chance to follow the development of those times as seen by one of the most powerful men of his days - the highest predecessor of the Commitee for State Security at the Council of Ministers of the USSR (better known under the abbreviation KGB). Considering his
Direct bandgap metal lead halide perovskites offer promising optoelectronic properties desirable in a wide range of applications including photodetection. However, the incomplete and poor understanding of the photophysical processes taking place in these materials, along with their poor stability, is the bottleneck for optimisation and further development of metal halide perovskite devices. In thi
Ersättningen till ledande befattningshavare identifierades i slutet av förra millenniet som en bidragande faktor till det låga förtroendet för näringslivet i USA och i Sverige. Lagstiftarna har sedan dess försökt komma till rätta med problemen både genom lagreglering samt via bolagskoder och listningsregler på börser. Det jag fokuserat på är vem som har makten i beslutsfattandet och hur intressen Executive officers and director remuneration was identified as a contributory factor for the low confidence-ratings in trade and industry in the beginning of this millennia. The legislator in both Sweden and in the US has since dealt with the problems by enacting laws as well as regulating through corporate governance codes and stock listing manuals. I have focused on locus of power over executive
The purpose of this thesis is to explore and analyze the processes and efforts involved in rebuilding the war-torn state of Afghanistan. The examined period span from the fall of the Taliban regime in 2001, to the elections in 2005. This period, commonly known as the Bonn-process, sets out the initial time for the reconstruction of the state. A theoretical framework, which considers the necessary
Comparative research related to any aspect of the process of breach in either the pretrial, sentencing or release phases is relatively rare. Comparative studies of decision making in the specific context of breach process are particularly lacking. One reason for the dearth of research in this area is the many challenges presented by comparative research across different jurisdictions. This article

The widespread adoption of drones has presented new requirements for reliable localization and tracking systems. For this reason acoustic sensing has become an area of growing interest for a passive and cost-effective solution. However, process- ing large amounts of microphone data in real time presents significant hardware challenges. This thesis studies two different types of signal channelizati
I believe that vision, image and identity, brand and positioning are all parts of repositioning process. When repositioning, company has to decide if it is going to compete with same attributes as before or if company is entering totally new competitive domain with new dimensions. Fleur de Santé has changed its identity and chose which parts of it to point out; history, brand and natural ingredien
A novel calculation methodology containing modeling and statistics was developed to assist the experimental process for the investigation of organics treatment process. A continuous-flow photo-electro treatment of Norfloxacin (NOR) was chosen as a target subject. The methodology is based on a new synergistic work of reaction energy calculation, full-scanned neural network (NN) simulation and new p
This paper presents a novel approach to understanding violence in service encounters through a sociological lens, focusing specifically on micro-interactional violence. Traditionally, research on violence has focused on structural aspects, linking it to the capitalist system or viewing it as symbolic violence (Gordon & Zainuddin, 2020; Varman, 2010). This study, however, shifts the focus to th
Background: There is little agreement on clinically useful criteria for identifying real-world responders to biologic treatments for asthma. Objective: To investigate the impact of pre-biologic impairment on meeting domain-specific biologic responder definitions in adults with severe asthma. Methods: This was a longitudinal, cohort study across 22 countries participating in the International Sever
Forests are crucial for biodiversity, climate stability, and human well-being, yet rising pressures from climate change and conventional forestry practices threaten their resilience and sustainability. Approximately 30% of global forests are managed intensively, often as monoculture plantations, compromising biodiversity conservation, carbon sequestration, and ecosystem stability. Here, we propose
