  2. 1. Latent Trait Models of Intrinsic, Extrinsic, and Quest Religious Orientations

    Author : Marcus Koskinen-Hagman; Centrum för teologi och religionsvetenskap; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Theology; Meta-analysis; Item Analysis; Rasch; Scaling; Quest; Extrinsic; Intrinsic; Measurement; Religious Orientations; Teologi;

    Abstract : Allports and Ross (1967) Intrinsic and Extrinsic scales and Batsons and Schoenrades (1991b) Quest scale are re-analyzed from a unidimensional perspective by using the Rasch measurement model (RM). The RM of choice, Rating scale analysis, offers an alternative scaling procedure to Factor analysis. READ MORE

  4. 2. Photosynthetic water oxidation : the function of two extrinsic proteins

    Author : Tatiana Shutova; Göran Samuelsson; Stenbjörn Styring; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; photosystem II; Psb0; Cah3; water oxidation; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi;

    Abstract : The solar energy accumulated by photosynthesis over billions of years is the sole source of energy available on Earth. Photosystem II (PSII) uses the sunlight to split water, an energetically unfavorable reaction where electrons and protons are extracted from water and oxygen is released as a by-product. READ MORE

  5. 3. Intrinsic and extrinsic protection of the brain

    Author : Peter Kimme; Olof Grände; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The brain is a complex organ and critically dependent on its oxygen metabolism and blood supply. The purpose of the present study was twofold: firstly to design, evaluate, and adopt a physiologically stable experimental model for repeated measurements of cerebral cortical microvascular perfusion by a new laser Doppler technique (experimental part (I) - intrinsic model).

  6. 4. Amyloid Proteins in Neurodegenerative Disease – Role of Extrinsic Modifiers

    Author : Nima Sasanian; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT Self-assembly of disease-associated proteins into fibrillar homopolymers, so-called “amyloid fibrils” is a pathological hallmark of several debilitating human disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD). AD and PD are associated with the formation of amyloid fibrils from the proteins amyloid-β (Aβ) and α-syn (α-syn), in the extracellular and intracellular space, respectively. READ MORE

  7. 5. Mechanisms of p53-mediated intrinsic and extrinsic tumor suppression

    Author : Hai Li; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : p53 is a promising target for cancer therapy. However, the molecular basis of the p53 tumor suppression function remains incompletely understood. Thus, in this thesis, we focused on studies of the molecular mechanisms of p53-mediated tumor suppression. READ MORE
