Parrondo’s Paradox and Epistemology – combining two faulty strategies to get good results PARRONDO’S PARADOX AND EPISTEMOLOGY – WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD COGNIZERS (AND CONVERSELY) Fredrik Stjernberg Philosophy, Linköping University frest@irk.liu.se ABSTRACT: According to Parrondo’s Paradox, there will be cases where a subject facing two probabilistically losing strategies has a probabilistic

Popular Abstract in Swedish Kring familjeproblematiken och för behandlingen av familjekonflikter har det svenska samhället organiserat olika sociala verksamheter som traditionellt regleras av Socialtjänstlagen. Familjerådgivningen är en av dessa verksamheter och definieras som en psykoterapeutisk behandling, till vilken en eller båda parter vänder sig oftast på frivillig basis när de upplever att

Objective: Data remain divergent regarding the activational effects of endogenous hormones on adult cognitive function. We examined the association between cognition, hormones and androgen receptor (AR) CAG repeat length in a large cohort of men. Design: Community-based, cross-sectional study of 3369 men aged 40-79 years. Methods: Cognition tests were the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure, Camden Topo

Background: Timely treatment of acute allergic reactions (AARs) is important to minimize reaction severity. Corticosteroid tablets dissolved in water are commonly used in mainstay treatment. A new oral film that dissolves on the tongue provides a faster and less cumbersome alternative to tablets for corticosteroid administration during AARs. This study evaluated patients' preferences for attribute

Data from prospective studies clearly demonstrate the efficacy of prophylactic treatment of haemophilia in reducing joint- or life-threatening bleeding and the associated consequences for quality of life. Debate remains, however, regarding the optimal implementation of prophylaxis. Our aim in this review was to identify a best practice approach to factor replacement prophylaxis in boys with haemop

Background: While higher rates and earlier onset of frailty have been reported among adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), research on how best to support these individuals is lacking. Method: An international consultation relied on three consensus building methods: the Nominal Group Technique, an NIH consensus conference approach, and a Delphi survey. Results: There is ag

Emergency abdominal surgery outcomes represent an internationally important marker of healthcare quality and capacity. In this study, a novel approach to investigating global surgical outcomes is proposed, involving collaborative methodology using 'snapshot' clinical data collection over a 2-week period. The primary aim is to identify internationally relevant, modifiable surgical practices (in ter

We compare Value at Risk estimates from an AR(1)-GARCH(1,1) model with t- or normally distributed innovations, to estimates from an AR(1)-GARCH(1,1) model where the Peak-Over-Threshold method is applied to the tails of the innovations. Using the Christoffersen backtest, we find that the performance of the second type of model is superior to the first, particularly at high confidence levels for the

Popular science Dissolve organic carbon degradation in the estuarine environment Dissolve Organic Carbon (DOC) is transported to the estuarine systems via river runoff where it is largely degraded by microbial communities. The availability of DOC effects aquatic ecosystems by causing changes in the bioavailability of toxic compounds, and by increasing the acidity of water . DOC degradation causes Terrestrially-derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is transported to estuarine systems via river runoff, where it is largely degraded by microbial communities. I studied the combined influence of salinity (NaCl), microbial community (marine vs. freshwater) and inorganic nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) availability on DOC degradation rates in 10 major rivers in Sweden sampled during summer. The D

Freshwaters bring a notable contribution to the global carbon budget by emitting both carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. Global estimates of freshwater emissions traditionally use a wind-speed-based gas transfer velocity, kCC (introduced by Cole and Caraco, 1998), for calculating diffusive flux with the boundary layer method (BLM). We compared CH4 and CO2 fluxes from BLM wit

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) remains a leading cause of transfusionrelated deaths. In most cases, anti-leukocyte antibodies in the transfusion product trigger TRALI, but not all anti-leukocyte antibodies cause TRALI. It has been shown that the anti-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antibody 34-1-2S (anti-H-2Kd) causes TRALI in BALB/c mice (MHC class I haplotype H-2Kd)
