Neuroergonomic Assessment of Hot Beverage Preparation and Consumption: An EEG and EDA Study.

2020

Neuroergonomics is an emerging field that investigates the human brain in relation to behavioral performance in natural environments and everyday settings. This study investigated the body and brain activity correlates of a typical daily activity, hot beverage preparation, and consumption in a realistic office environment where participants performed natural daily tasks. Using wearable, battery operated and wireless Electroencephalogram (EEG) and Electrodermal activity (EDA) sensors, neural and physiological responses were measured in untethered, freely moving participants who prepared hot beverages using two different machines (a market leader and follower as determined by annual US sales)…

Model development (conceptualisation)

2016

Chapter 2 provided the theoretical background for the development of the conceptual model. In this chapter, firstly, the constructs relevant for the model are conceptualised, and secondly, hypotheses regarding the relationships between those constructs are derived from theoretical considerations.

What happens in the course of body exposure?

2007

Abstract Objective Though body exposure seems to enhance outcome in cognitive-behavioural therapy of anorexia and bulimia nervosa, the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. Methods Participants with eating disorders (ED; n = 21) and normal controls (NC; n = 28) were exposed to their own bodies in front of a mirror for 40 minutes under standardized conditions. Emotions, cognitions, and saliva cortisol were assessed every 10 minutes during body exposure. Heart rate and skin conductance were recorded continuously. Results ED showed higher negative emotional and cognitive responses to body exposure compared to NC, whereas no group differences were found for physiological reactions. In the co…

Credit risk transmission in the European banking sector: the case of the subprime and Eurozone debt crises

2014

El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar en profundidad la transmisión del riesgo de crédito, aproximado por los CDS spreads, en el sector bancario europeo durante el periodo 2006-2012, intentando dar respuesta a diversas cuestiones: (i) ¿existe evidencia de transmisión del riesgo de crédito entre las entidades financieras europeas de la Eurozona y las que no pertenecen a dicha zona?, (ii) ¿es esta transmisión bidireccional o unidireccional?, (iii) concretamente, ¿qué países han liderado dicha transmisión?, y (iv) ¿cómo se ha visto afectada dicha transmisión con las recientes crisis financieras? Los resultados indican un cambio significativo en la transmisión del riesgo de crédito con e…

Challenges Faced by the Eu’s Energy Policy on CO2 Emissions From 1997-2017, Including Bilaterial Trade Between The EU and the US

2020

Purpose of research: The European Union has three main objectives in its energy policy. The most crucial one is due by 2020, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (mainly CO2) by at least 20% below 1990 levels. This research attempts to calculate Actual-Open CO2 emission in the EU countries for the years 1997-2017, including in the calculation export and import of CO2 in products and services from the USA. Design/methodology/approach: This study takes into account the USA and 27 European countries (all the EU members without Malta). Actual-Open CO2 emissions were obtained by applying the appropriate Actual Emission Factor. The calculation takes into consideration the transfer of CO2 in exporte…
