Inducing and reducing false memories: A Swedish version of the Deese-Roediger-McDermott paradigm

Participants tend to falsely remember a nonpresented critical word after having studied a list of the word's primary associates. We present here a Swedish version of the Deese-Roediger-McDermott paradigm, which provides a tractable method of experimentally inducing and investigating such illusory memories. In Experiment 1 it was demonstrated that the constructed stimulus material induced highly re

The Legacy of the Jaguar Prophet : An Exploration of Yucatec Maya Religion and Historiography

Popular Abstract in Swedish Många har fascinerats av det mystiska Mayafolket som byggde fantastiska städer med tempelpyramider, astronomiska observatorier och bollplaner djupt inne i djungeln i Guatemala och Mexiko.

They are written in the Yucatec Maya language, and tell the reader about Yucatec Maya cosmology, rituals, prophecies, calendars, medicine and they are as well considered as Yucatec Maya emic historiography. These manuscripts are considered enigmatic

Effect of short chain fatty acids infused intraileally on interdigestive exocrine pancreatic secretions in growing pigs

The effect of intraileally infused short chain fatty acids (SCFA) and saline as control on the exocrine pancreatic secretions during the interdigestive phase was studied using three 8-weeks-old piglets. Pigs were surgically fitted with a pancreatic duct catheter, re-entrant duodenal T-cannula for collection and subsequent return of pancreatic juice, and with an infusion T-cannula at the distal ile

Sense of coherence is a sensitive measure for changes in subjects with Parkinson's disease during 1 year.

To investigate subjective and objective changes in function in subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) home visits with interviews were performed with a 1-year interval. Depressive symptoms were rated with the Geriatric Depression Scale, subjective health with the generic SF-36 scale and the disease-specific PDQ-8 scale; objective changes were assessed according to the Hoehn and Yahr scale; insomni

Preponderance for either alpha- or beta-adrenoceptor mediated sensitization in the rat submaxillary gland

The sensitivity of the rat submaxillary gland was examined 3-4 weeks after either parasympathetic decentralization or sympathetic decentralization or denervation. The threshold doses for secretion of saliva of parasympathomimetic (methacholine) and sympathomimetic (noradrenaline, adrenaline, phenylephrine and isoprenaline) drugs were estimated and the amount of saliva secreted in response to supra

Foreign Aid and State Sovereignty: The Ethio-Swedish Aid Co-operation

Over the last three and half decades Sweden have provided development aid to Ethiopia. This aid was used to expand Ethiopia's educutional system, public health service and agricultural production. This empiricaI study reveals Ethiopia's response to Swedish aid and its influence. Providing and receiving aid explains the existence of disparity among sovereign states. In spite of the demonstrative i

Från guidad visning till shopping och förströdd tillägnelse: moderniserade villkor för ungdomars musikaliska lärande.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 1990-talet har från olika håll ställts krav på ett ökat elevinflytande över innehåll och arbetsformer i den allmänna skolan. Dessa krav har dels kommit från eleverna själva, dels kommit till uttryck i olika styrdokument. Att så har varit fallet ter sig ganska naturligt, eftersom den tidsanda i vilken vi lever är präglad av individualism. Ett antagande, som stöds aAbstract In the Swedish compulsory school system there is a trend towards increased student influence. School ideologists have for at least ten years strongly emphasised this issue. This tendency is in line with a more general direction in Western societies, which in many aspects has moved toward individualisation. Based on these developments, the main reason for undertaking the presents study was

Serum HCV RNA levels in patients with chronic hepatitis C given a second course of interferon alpha-2b treatment after relapse following initial treatment

10 patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who previously had responded temporarily to 9 months interferon alpha-2b treatment with normalization of ALT levels during treatment but later relapse were given a second 6-month treatment course. All patients were positive for anti-HCV by a second generation ELISA confirmed by second generation RIBA and positive for HCV RNA in serum befor

Stem Cell Plasticity Controlling Neuronal Differentiation Prior to Cell Transplantation

Popular Abstract in Swedish Parkinsons sjukdom är den näst mest vanliga neurodegenerativa sjukdomen och den drabbar 2% av befolkningen över 65 år. Sjukdomen kännetecknas av en gradvis ökad förlust av dopaminproducerande nervceller. Symtomen tilltar successivt och leder framförallt till allvarliga fördröjningar i rörelsemönstret. Dessvärre, när de första symptomen väl upptäcks, så har redan 50% av Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease and affects 2% of the population over 65 years of age. The disease is characterized by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons. Over time, symptoms increase and, in particular, lead to a dramatic slowness of movements. Unfortunately, when the fi rst symptoms are discovered, more than 50% of the dopaminergic neurons a

An economic analysis of leachate purification through willow-coppice vegetation filters

In this study an economic analysis of the purification of integrated solid waste treatment facility leachates through a willow-coppice (Salix) vegetation filter in southern Sweden was carried out. Calculations were based on the use of two computer models that were initially used in estimating a pump-and-pipe irrigation system for a 36-ha willow-coppice plantation to purify an average annual quanti

STRUCTURAL BASIS OF SH2 DOMAIN MUTATIONS IN X-LINKED AGAMMAGLOBULINEMIA

The three-dimensional structure of Bruton's agammaloglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (Btk) SH2 domain was modeled based on v-Src. Btk SH2 is presumably very related to the other SH2 structures consisting of two beta-sheets surrounded by two alpha-helices, with a well conserved hydrophobic core and phoshotyrosyl peptide binding site. The model was used to predict the recognition sequence of the target
