  2. 1. On Test Design

    Author : Sigrid Eldh; Hans Hansson; Sasikumar Punnekkat; Eleine Weyuker; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software Test; Test Design Techniques; Test Design; Test Automation; Test Efficiency; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Testing is the dominating method for quality assurance of industrial software. Despite its importance and the vast amount of resources invested, there are surprisingly limited efforts spent on testing research, and the few industrially applicable results that emerge are rarely adopted by industry.

  4. 2. Licence to drive : the importance of reliability for the validity of the Swedish driving licence test

    Author : Susanne Alger; Hanna Eklöf; Anna Sundström; Peter Nyström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Driving licence tests; driver s licence; driving test; theory test; licensing test; interrater reliability; classification consistency; examiner agreement; classification accuracy; förarprov; körprov; kunskapsprov; reliabilitet; validitet; bedömare; didactics of educational measurement; beteendevetenskapliga mätningar;

    Abstract : Background: The Swedish driving licence test is a criterion-referenced test resulting in a pass or fail. It currently consists of two parts - a theory test with 65 multiple-choice items and a practical driving test where at least 25 minutes are spent driving in traffic. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cues, Conformity, and Choice Architecture : Empirical Essays on Influence

    Author : Mathias Ekström; Yves Zenou; Robert Östling; Rupert Sausgruber; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Social interactions; Peer effects; Conformity; Status quo bias; Default option; Choice architecture; Altruism; Cues; Reputation; Behavioral economics; Field experiment; Economics; nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of three papers summarized as follows. “Can Indifference Make the World Greener?” We test whether the default option can nudge people to save resources in a simple, non-dynamic, decision task with only two alternatives, and where people have been explicitly informed about the recommended course of action.

  6. 4. Test Design for Finite Element Model Updating - Identifiable Parameters and Informative Test Data

    Author : Andreas Linderholt; Thomas Abrahamsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modal tests; test design; identifiability; Fisher information; optimization; data informativeness; model updating; Maskinteknik;

    Abstract : It is important to predict structural phenomena, such as noise and fatigue, stemming from vibrations. To do this, reliable structural dynamic models are needed. To be useful the models have to compare well with reality in the validation against test data; if not, the models should be modified. READ MORE

  7. 5. The link between brain size, cognitive ability, mate choice and sexual behaviour in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata)

    Author : Alberto Corral López; Niclas Kolm; Janette Boughman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sexual selection; artificial selection; brain evolution; optomotor test; decision-making; discrimination; assessment; optimal decisions; rational choice; behavioural flexibility; expensive tissue; predation; sex ratio; OSR; maintenance of variation; etologi; Ethology;

    Abstract : Competition over access for mates has led to the evolution of many striking examples of morphological traits and behaviour in animals. The rapid development of the sexual selection field in recent decades have dramatically advanced our understanding of what traits make individuals more successful in attracting mates and how preferences for mates evolve over time.
