User Experience utvärderingar med stöd av Repertory Grid TechniqueEbbesson, Esbjörn, Grönberg, Tobias January 2008 (has links)
<p>Studiens syfte var att undersöka möjligheterna att använda intervjutekniken Repertory Grid Technique (RGT) som utvärderingsteknik för att utvärdera User Experience (UX) på distans. Detta gjordes genom att de föreställningar som en handledarstödd utvärdering resulterade i jämfördes med det resultat som uppnåddes genom en webbaserad variant av samma utvärdering. Studiens resultat visade på en svårighet för respondenterna i den webbaserade utvärderingen att formulera föreställningar som går att använda för analys av en produkts UX. Diskussionen pekar på en tänkbar lösning i form av förstudier som utförs med en mindre grupp av respondenter för att på detta sätt hjälpa utvärderarna att skapa sig en referensram att använda vid tolkningen av de föreställningar som sedan kan samlas in under en webbaserad utvärdering. Studien syftade även till att jämföra vilka aspekter kopplade till UX som utvärderingarna genererade, samtliga av dessa kopplades till subjektiva eller produktrelaterade aspekter.</p>

Preclinical Modeling of Treatment-induced Impulsivity in Parkinson's DiseaseAleksandrova, Lily R 20 November 2013 (has links)
Dopamine agonist therapy and deep brain stimulation (DBS) are both linked to increased impulsivity in Parkinson’s disease (PD), but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We trained intact and PD-like rats on a rat gambling task (rGT) measuring impulsive choice and
premature responding. Animals were then retested with/without treatment, pramipexole (PPX) or DBS, administered chronically prior to rGT testing. Early PD-like rats did not exhibit major differences in rGT performance or treatment response. Our work suggests that DBS and PPX are not intrinsically linked with increases in impulsivity. Neither DBS nor PPX disrupted gambling-like behaviour in our paradigm, while differential effects on premature and perseverant responding in the task were observed with treatment. Based on our findings, the previously reported ability of PPX to increase impulsive choice might not be mediated by the dopamine D3 receptor. Interestingly, our work suggests that the effects of STN-DBS on impulse control might be amplitude-dependent.

The development of a competency model for auditors working in a professional services environmentMonk, Allison Lorraine 11 1900 (has links)
The aim of this research was to develop a competency model for auditors by
identifying those characteristics and behaviours that predict success as an auditor. The Work
Profiling System (WPS), the Repertory Grid Technique (RGT) and the Critical Incident Technique
(CIT) were the tools and techniques used to achieve this aim. This research was conducted in two
groups: trainee accountants (year 1-
3) and chartered accountants (year 4-5+).
The results of the research, which was conducted within one of the Big 5 auditing firms, indicated
that the competencies required of a trainee accountant are largely consistent with those of
registered chartered accountants, working in the same environment. The most noticeable
difference was the change in focus from cognitive or technical skills during the earty years
to a focus on managerial competencies in later years.
The competencies identified in this research compare well with reported models in
literature. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial Psychology)
