  1. 1. Mind off driving: Effects of cognitive load on driver glance behaviour and response times

    Author : Emma Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cognitive load; visual behaviour; lead vehicle braking; traffic safety; distraction; response times; driver behaviour; intersections;

    Abstract : Introduction: Safe driving requires drivers to look at relevant information in the traffic environment and react in time in case a critical event arises. Concerns exist that cognitively loading tasks might interfere with drivers’ abilities to do this. READ MORE

  2. 2. Visual filtering in box jellyfish: A simple system

    Author : Megan O'Connor; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tripedalia cystophora; box jellyfish; Cnidaria; Chiropsella bronzie; visual filtering; visual systems; microspectrophotometry; vision; eyes;

    Abstract : Unlike most jellyfish, box jellyfish (cubomedusae) are highly visually orientated. They are agile swimmers and use visual information to avoid obstacles and orientate themselves. READ MORE

  3. 3. Visual attention during decision-making in natural environments

    Author : Kerstin Gidlöf; Kognitionsvetenskap; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; decision-making; visual attention; process tracing; consumer behaviour;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates visual attention during decision-making in natural environments in four different studies. The first study demonstrated that decisions in the supermarket were suboptimal and this did not seem to relate to the amount of products attended to or the amount of time spent on each product.

  4. 4. Visually guided swimming in box jellyfish: A study of swimming behaviour in response to visual stimuli

    Author : Ronald Petie; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Vision; steering; swimming; behaviour; box jellyfish; Cubozoa; Tripedalia cystophora; biomechanics;

    Abstract : Most animals use eyes to guide their behaviour. Analysing, and understanding, visually guided behaviours gets more complicated the more advanced the animal gets. Box jellyfish provide a relatively simple system for understanding visually guided behaviours. READ MORE

  5. 5. Spatial vision in diverse invertebrates

    Author : John Kirwan; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vision; visual ecology; invertebrates; spatial resolution; behaviour;

    Abstract : Light-detection provides incomparabaly rapid information at a range of time scales and, consequently, directional photoreception is found in almost every major metazoan clade. Conversely, a much smaller cohort have evolved sophisticated high resolution vision, which facillitates complex tasks via the detection of fast or small objects,. READ MORE
