Prior Precision Modulates the Minimization of Auditory Prediction Error
2019
International audience; The predictive coding model of perception proposes that successful representation of the perceptual world depends upon canceling out the discrepancy between prediction and sensory input (i.e., prediction error). Recent studies further suggest a distinction to be made between prediction error triggered by non-predicted stimuli of different prior precision (i.e., inverse variance). However, it is not fully understood how prediction error with different precision levels is minimized in the predictive process. Here, we conducted a magnetoencephalography (MEG) experiment which orthogonally manipulated prime-probe relation (for contextual precision) and stimulus repetition…
Hitaan opiskelijan analyysi
2013
Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tutkia luokanopettajaopiskelijan kokemusta opiskelusta ja ymmärtää opiskelussa koettuja jännitteitä. Niitä syntyi ympäristön odotusten ja oman kokemuksen välillä, kun opiskeluissa kesti suunniteltua pidempään. Opiskelun hitaus tuntuu ongelmalliselta, sillä yliopisto-opintoja on pyritty nopeuttamaan ja tehostamaan. Opiskelijoiden haluttaisiin valmistuvan nykyistä nopeammin. Hidas opiskelija määrittyy herkästi epäonnistujaksi, vaikka oma kokemus opiskelusta olisi toinen. Tutkimuksessa kuvattiin autoetnografisella otteella tutkijan omaa opiskelukokemusta. Tutkimusteksti muodostui aineiston ja analyysin vuoropuheluksi; kokemuksen näkyväksi tekeminen, analysointi ja…
The self-reported stress and stressors in tram and long-haul truck drivers
2022
Work stress may compromise professional drivers’ health and driving capacity. Differences between driver groups in terms of on-duty stress are understudied. Therefore, we examined self-reported stress (Stockholm University Stress Scale) of shift-working tram and long-haul truck drivers (n = 75) across 2–3 weeks. Furthermore, stressors were self-reported retrospectively and categorised as related to the job, driving conditions, personal, or other causes. Stress levels were generally low, but moderate to high stress (≥6) was more frequently reported among the tram drivers. Stressors related to the job (54%) and driving conditions (19% of all shifts) were frequently reported among the tram and…
Revisors holdning til digitalisering i revisjon : En studie om revisors holdninger til digitaliseringen, og hvordan disse påvirker implementeringen a…
2020
Master's thesis in Accounting and auditing (BE508) Temaet for masteroppgaven er revisors holdning til digitalisering i revisjon. Revisjonsbransjen har tradisjonelt vært preget av manuelle arbeidsoppgaver, som gjør bransjen perfekt posisjonert for digitalisering. De fire store revisjonsselskapene er allerede godt i gang med innføringen av nye verktøy som for eksempel RPA og SAF-T. På grunnlag av at digitalisering ikke er et nytt fenomen, fokuserte studien på hvilke faktorer som påvirker revisors holdninger til innføringen av digitaliserte verktøy og arbeidsmetoder. Formålet med masterutredningen var derfor å belyse hvordan revisor stiller seg til økt bruk av teknologiske nyvinninger, og hvor…
Dialogues on Bakhtin : interdisciplinary readings
1998
The ideas of Mikhail Bakhtin have received a great amount of scholarly interest both in his homeland and in the West, giving rise to a special discipline devoted to the study of the legacy of the Bakhtin Circle. Despite the huge amount of material published on Bakhtin, the appropriation of Bakhtin’s ideas has remained a rather controversial issue, and thus, there are competing views, especially between Russian and Western scholars, on what Bakhtin’s project was. Furthermore, the relevance of Bakhtin is not limited to ’Bakhtinology proper’, nor to literary criticism, cultural studies, and philosophy, which are traditionally considered Bakhtin’s home ground. It has become trendy to apply Bakh…

Evaluation of training in guideline-oriented biopsychosocial management of low back pain in occupational health services:Protocol of a cluster random…
2021
Background To prevent low back pain (LBP) from developing into a prolonged disabling condition, clinical guidelines advocate early stage assessment, risk‐screening, and tailored interventions. Occupational health services recommend guideline‐oriented biopsychosocial screening and individualized assessment and management. However, it is not known whether training a limited number of health care professionals improves the management process. The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether training in the biopsychosocial practice model is effective in reducing disability. Furthermore, we aim to evaluate health‐economic impacts of the training intervention in comparison to usual m…
