  2. 1. FE/MALE asymmetries of gender and sexuality

    Author : Ann Kroon; Kaj Håkansson; Kerstin Sandell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Sociology; transsexualism; gender; sexuality; masculinity; femininity; asymmetries; gender order; Sociologi; Sociologi; Sociology;

    Abstract : This thesis elicits logic of gender and sexuality from modern written material on psychiatric assessment of transsexualism in Sweden. Asymmetries of gender and sexuality with regard to females vs. males are analysed. READ MORE

  4. 2. Processing Asymmetries of Emotionally Valenced Stimuli

    Author : Mats Dahl; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; recollective experience; remember-know; memory; encoding; processing asymmetries; emotional words; emotional faces; affective pictures; emotion; affective information; Psykologi;

    Abstract : The central phenomenon investigated concerns the valence-based process asymmetry found in several earlier studies (e.g. Pratto & John, 1991; Taylor, 1991), where negative stimuli seem to initiate more thorough processing than positive stimuli. This finding was consistent in the three empirical studies forming this dissertation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Decentralized Control of Networked Systems : Information Asymmetries and Limitations

    Author : Farhad Farokhi; Karl Henrik Johansson; Jeff S. Shamma; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Networked Control Systems; Decentralized Control; Limited Model Information; Transportation Systems; Sensor Scheduling;

    Abstract : Designing local controllers for networked systems is challenging, because in these systems each local controller can often access only part of the overall information on system parameters and sensor measurements. Traditional control design cannot be easily applied due to the unconventional information patterns, communication network imperfections, and design procedure complexities. READ MORE

  6. 4. Measurement of azimuthal asymmetries in the hadronic final-state of deep inelastic scattering at HERA

    Author : Magnus Lindström; Partikel- och kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; jets; DIS; azimuthal asymmetries; structure function; unfold; quantum field theory; Elementary particle physics; Elementarpartikelfysik; kvantfältteori; Physics; Fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2000:Lindström;

    Abstract : Azimuthal asymmetries of the hadronic final state in deep inelastic scattering at HERA provide the opportunity to study the helicity of the interacting particles. We present a theoretical overview of the origin of these effects up to leading order in the strong coupling constant, $alpha_s$. READ MORE

  7. 5. Development of functional asymmetries in young infants : A sensory-motor approach

    Author : Erik Domellöf; Louise Rönnqvist; Jacqueline Fagard; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Laterality; development; handedness; human infant; stepping response; placing response; head turning; arm movement; reaching; kinematic parameters; intralimb coordination; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : Human functional laterality, typically involving a right-sided preference in most sensory-motor activities, is still a poorly understood issue. This is perhaps particularly true in terms of what underlying mechanisms that may govern lateral biases, as well as the developmental origins and course of events. READ MORE
