Give us today our daily bread: The effect of hunger on consumers’ visual attention towards bread and the role of time orientation

2021

Abstract This study investigated the effect of hunger on consumers’ visual attention during a food choice task, and the role of time orientation (i.e., present and future orientation) in this interplay. A lab-based eye-tracking experiment including 102 participants was conducted, with hunger as the manipulated factor (hungry, satiated). Participants in the satiated condition were served a breakfast buffet before the experimental tasks, whereas participants in the hungry condition were served the buffet after completion of the tasks. Both groups were exposed to a set of planograms depicting supermarket shelves and were asked to choose an option they could consider buying, while their eye mov…

From Defined Reactive Diblock Copolymers to Functional HPMA-Based Self-Assembled Nanoaggregates

2008

This paper describes the synthesis of functional amphiphilic poly( N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide)-block-poly(lauryl methacrylate) copolymers by RAFT polymerization via the intermediate step of activated ester block copolymers (pentafluoro-phenyl methacrylate). Block copolymers with molecular weights from 12000-28000 g/mol and PDIs of about 1.2 have been obtained. The amphiphilic diblock copolymers form stable super structures (nanoaggregates) by self-organization in aqueous solution. The diameters of these particles are between 100 and 200 nm and depend directly on the molecular weight of the block copolymer. Furthermore, we investigated the impact of these nanoaggregates on cell viabi…

Simulation of the operation of detention tanks.

2005

The performance of detention tanks with different characteristics (volume, on-line and off-line arrangement) has been evaluated according to the results of a continuous simulation. The conceptual simplified model for sewer system simulation (COSMOSS) model has been used to simulate the operation of the tanks. The differences between the performance of on-line and off-line tanks and the influence of the characteristics of different catchments have been examined. According to the results of the simulations detention tanks demonstrated good performances in total suspended solids retention and this evenience can certainly help to prevent water pollution of receiving water bodies in urban areas,…

MORPHOLOGY AND DEVELOPMENT OF SELECTED BADLANDS IN SOUTHEAST SPAIN: IMPLICATIONS OF CLIMATIC CHANGE

1996

Four areas were selected to represent a range of processes characteristic of badland surfaces in southeast Spain: Petrer and Monnegre in Alicante, Vera and Tabernas in Almeria. At Petrer, rilling and swelling processes produce a deeply cracked surface drained by a finely textured network of shallow rills. At Monnegre, piping and rilling are differentially developed on slopes ultimately controlled by basal incision. At Vera, aspect-controlled lichen and vegetation cover produce a sequence of badland development within which the relative importance of piping, mass movement and rilling varies through the sequence. At Tabernas, simple overland flow is the dominant process, but aspect influences…

Synthesis, reactivity, crystal structures and catalytic activity of new chelating bisimidazolium-carbene complexes of Rh

2003

A series of new bridging, chelating and pincer N-heterocyclic carbenes of RhI and RhIII have been obtained under mild conditions. The compounds have been fully characterised and their crystal structures determined. The chelate-pincer coordination of the ligands means that the stability of these compounds is significantly greater than other carbene complexes of Rh. The compounds have been tested in catalytic reactions such as hydrogen transfer from alcohols to ketones, and hydrosilylation of terminal olefins and alkynes; they show a high activity for both processes.

An Unexplained Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation-II in a Child with Neurohepatic Involvement, Hypercholesterolemia and Hypoceruloplasminemia

2017

We report on a 12-year-old adopted boy with psychomotor disability, absence seizures, and normal brain MRI. He showed increased (but initially, at 5 months, normal) serum cholesterol, increased alkaline phosphatases, transiently increased transaminases and hypoceruloplasminemia with normal serum and urinary copper. Blood levels of immunoglobulins, haptoglobin, antithrombin, and factor XI were normal. A type 2 serum transferrin isoelectrofocusing and hypoglycosylation of apoCIII pointed to a combined N- and O-glycosylation defect. Neither CDG panel analysis with 79 CDG-related genes, nor whole exome sequencing revealed the cause of this CDG. Whole genome sequencing was not performed since th…

Kvantifisering av intensitetsfordeling hos fotballspillerepå høyt norsk nivå

2009

Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap Universitetet i Agder 2009 Denne studien hadde som hensikt å kvantifisere den daglige intensitetsdistribusjonen til en gruppe profesjonelle fotballspillere basert på tre ulike kvantifiseringsmetoder. Hensikten var også å kartlegge treningsmessige forskjeller i oppkjøringsfase og sesong. Metode: femten mannlige fotballspillere (Alder: 24,1 ± 5,2) gjennomførte en løpstest på tredemølle til utmattelse, for å finne VO2 og hjertefrekvensverdier som korresponderte med ventilatoriske terskler (VT1 og VT2), maksimalt oksygenopptak (VO2maks 58 ± 3) og makspuls. VT1 og VT2 ble brukt for å dele inn tre intensitetssoner med bakgrunn i hjertefrekvens. Treningsdata ble in…

Overgangen fra 7-er til 11-er fotball : fra lek til alvor?

2012

Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap -Universitetet i Agder 2012 Det debatteres jevnlig om vi er gode nok på spillerutvikling i Norge, og mye kan trolig bli bedre. Denne studien tar for seg den tilsynelatende uproblematiske overgangen fra 7-er til 11-er fotball, men som viser seg å representere er et skille fra lek til alvor. Studien undersøker ulike aspekter overgangen fører med seg og om disse er hensiktsmessig for utvikling av unge spillere, eller om de kan ha en negativ effekt som fører til lav motivasjon og frafall av spillere. Studien er todelt; - Studie 1 er en kvantitativ observasjons-studie hvor det ble sett på antall involveringer i både 7-er og 11-er fotball hos 40 13-åringer i Agder…
