1. 6. Evaluation of cognitive workload using EEG : Investigation of how sensory feedback improves function of osseo-neuromuscular upper limb prostheses

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk teknik

   Author : Linn Berntsson; [2019]
   Keywords : EEG; ERP; spectral analysis; cognitive workload; prosthesis;

   Abstract : The e-OPRA Implant System (Integrum AB, Sweden) is a system which employs permanently accessible implantable neuromuscular electrodes in combination with osseointegrated attachment of the prosthesis to the skeleton, in order to create a more natural control of advanced robotic upper-limb prostheses. The system enables the possibility of sensory feedback, via a cuff electrode to the ulnar nerve which allows for direct neurostimulation of the nerve. READ MORE

3. 7. Visual Perception of the Facial Width-to-Height Ratio : Possible Influences of Angry Facial Expressions as Revealed by Event-Related Brain Potentials

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Madeleine Jones; [2019]
   Keywords : Facial Width-to-Height Ratio; Late Positive Potential; Facial Processing; Anger; Cognitive Neuroscience;

   Abstract : The facial width-to-height ratio (fWHR) is a measure of the cheekbone width divided by the height of the face from the upper lip to the brows. The metric is hypothesised to have evolved as an intra-sexual competition mechanism in males, where large fWHRs are thought to signal both threat and aggression. READ MORE

4. 8. Holistic and combinatorial processing of Swedish tone accents in the brain: An MMN study

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Allmän språkvetenskap; Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Språk och språkvetenskap

   Author : Renata Kochancikaite; [2019]
   Keywords : tone accents; Swedish; phonology; morphology; accent 1; accent 2; neurolinguistics; EEG; event-related potentials; MMN; mismatch negativity; Languages and Literatures;

   Abstract : All words in Swedish have a particular melody. There are two tonal patterns that are observed in different prosodic and morphological contexts – accent 1 and accent 2. The tone of accent 1 is the default melody in Swedish and is said to be of intonational nature. READ MORE

5. 9. Neuronal activity to environmental sounds when presented together with semantically related words : An MMN study on monolingual and bilingual processing of homophones

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Avdelningen för allmän språkvetenskap

   Author : Yeliz Afyonoglu Kirbas; [2019]
   Keywords : Environmental sounds; interlingual homophones; mismatch negativity; event-related potentials; Miljöljud; interlingual-homofoner; mismatch negativity; event-relaterade potentialer;

   Abstract : Neuronal activity of monolingual and bilinguals to environmental sounds and words that are semantically related to them were studied using the mismatch negativity (MMN) component of event-related potentials. MMN was expected to reflect the language selection process in bilinguals on the bases of semantics and phonology. READ MORE

6. 10. Exploring the Neural Correlates of Auditory Awareness

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Psykologiska institutionen

   Author : Billy Gerdfeldter; [2018]
   Keywords : consciousness; awareness; audition; event-related potential; auditory awareness negativity; AAN;

   Abstract : Neural correlates of consciousness (NCCs) represent the physiological processes related to consciousness and awareness. Consciousness is theorized as a recurrent process of integration between separate but specialized brain areas. READ MORE
