2. 1. The importance of personality, IQ and learning approaches : predicting academic performance

   Author : Pia Rosander; Martin Bäckström; Åge Diseth; Högskolan Kristianstad; []
   Keywords : SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; personality; IQ; learning approaches; academic performance; high school;

   Abstract : The aim of the present doctoral thesis was to examine to what extent personality traits and approaches to learning contribute to academic performance in upper secondary school (high school), after controlling for the well-known fact that general intelligence accounts for a large part of the variance. The general proposition of the thesis is that personality traits are stable dispositions and therefore predispose an individual to behave or act in a specific manner (Costa & McCrae, 1976).

   Abstract : Denna avhandling undersöker korrelationer i frekvensdomänen, av både klassiskt och kvantmekaniskt ursprung, i icke-linjära mikrovågskretsar. Syftet är att utveckla en kompakt metod för att generera kvantmekaniska korrelationer mellan harmoniska oscillatorer (s.k. READ MORE

6. 4. On Retirement and Cognitive Aging from a Life-Span Perspective

   Author : Linn Elena Zulka; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; cognitive aging; retirement transition; leisure activity engagement; work demands; personality; life satisfaction; initial IQ; social contacts;

   Abstract : Retirement is a major life event potentially affecting domains such as cognitive functioning and well-being. The main aim of this thesis was to assess whether retirement influences cognitive functioning and how inter- and intra-individual differences in psychological and lifestyle factors moderate the association.

7. 5. CMOS Data Converters for Closed-Loop mmWave Transmitters

   Author : Victor Åberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CMOS; SAR ADC; IQ-modulator; Data converter; mmWave; RF-DAC;

   Abstract : With the increased amount of data consumed in mobile communication systems, new solutions for the infrastructure are needed. Massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) is seen as a key enabler for providing this increased capacity. With the use of a large number of transmitters, the cost of each transmitter must be low.
