Twenty-five out of 26 cases of autopsy-verified frontal lobe degeneration of non-Alzheimer type (FLD) were found to have focal frontal or frontotemporal blood flow reductions involving both hemispheres. The deviant case had an asymmetric frontal pathology only apparent on the right side. Focal reduction of blood flow in the frontal lobes is, however, a common and unspecific flow abnormality found

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling tar sin utgångspunkt i frågor kring markförstörelse och minskad bördighet inom småskaligt jordbruk i Afrika söder om Sahara. Genom empirisk forskning bland småbrukare i Tororo i sydöstra Uganda pekar avhandlingen på olika former av kollektiva strategier på lokal nivå för att hantera förändrade försörjningsvillkor. I en ansats att samproducera kunskap meProceeding from land degradation and soil fertility decline in sub-Saharan African smallholder agriculture and drawing on empirical research with smallholder farmers in Tororo district in south-eastern Uganda (2010-2012), this thesis identifies local collective strategies in response to changing livelihood conditions. In an attempt to co-produce knowledge with a transformative potential, the thesi

In this paper we present a study of the value creating contribution of boards of directors by examining the association between the boardroom culture, boards’ strategic involvement and corporate innovation. We embed our study in theoretical arguments from modern team production theory and contrast this perspective against the dominating agency theoretic view on boards and governance. Based on our

According to medieval canon law, a marriage could be declared invalid if the consent had been given through force or fear. This ruling was a natural consequence of the insistence on free consent as the only requirement for a valid marriage. It did, however, entail a number of both practical and theoretical problems. It could be difficult to prove force and fear within the family, but also to defin

Conflicts between human activities and the management and conservation of the biological diversity are becoming apparent in all European landscapes. Public support and acceptance of conservation measures seems urgent to reach national and international conservation goals. This project analyses the psychological factors behind public acceptance of biodiversity conservation measures. In an empirical

The decomposition of nonlinear output feedback control into an observer and a state feedback control is an open problem. A solution for dynamic positioning of ships has been proposed in the above paper (1) and by Grovlen and Fossen, where an observer-based backstepping method is used. This note points out that the observer design in the above-mentioned papers does not cover unstable ship dynamics
