  2. 2. Ett dynamiskt perspektiv på individuella skillnader av heuristisk kompetens, intelligens, mentala modeller, mål och konfidens i kontroll av mikrovärlden Moro

    Author : Fredrik Elg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; complexed dynamic systems; Ravens matrices; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Theories predicting performance of human control of complex dynamic systems must assess how decision makers capture and utilise knowledge for achieving and maintaining control. Traditional problem solving theories and corresponding measures such as Ravens matrices have been applied to predict performance in complex dynamic systems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Early assessment of efficacy and safety of novel anticoagulants as exemplified by direct thrombin inhibitors. Non-clinical pharmacodynamic studies in vitro and in vivo

    Author : Margareta Elg; Göteborgs universitet; []
